Super Robot Chogokin Knight Gear Ogre

I'm sad to say, but this guy is a bit of a let down. Which really surprised me. The Knight Fighter Dendel that this is simply a retool/repainted of is absolutely fantastic. But this guy is by far the loosest SRC I have. His waist and torso joints are wobbly and barely hold a pose. He otherwise has exactly the same articulation as Dendel, but he doesn't feel as smooth or tight. While I know that they share the same frame and metal parts, Ogre feels lighter. The paint scheme while serviceable doesn't have a lot of pop to it. Granted that's the design of the robot. The accessories are decent, although the strange cobra head weapon is rather unexciting as those things go. (Not a huge fan of bendy wires). He has 2 heads one of which has 2 faces to allow for open and closed visor looks. (When visor is down its a bad guy, when he turns good he keeps it up.) the figure would have benefited from an actual moving visor rather than head swapping. But a minor nitpick.Overall he looks good. I wish I wasn't comparing it so much to its counterpart Dendel but seeing as they are minor reworks of the same design it's hard to avoid. Really I am mostly just disappointed with how floppy and rag doll like this guy is, especially compared to Dendel. It may be a fluke with mine. Your mileage may vary.

The adhesive papers of the box and plastic container inside the box were broken. The face and hands of the toy were scraped. It seems a second- hand product. It's not a honest shop. I feel very disappointed.

箱のスレとかは別に気にしないのですが、付属品欠品なしと書かれててバイパーウィップが入っていなかったことにすごくしょんぼり。

テレビの中から出てきたようなスタイル、塗装もきれいです。マスク状態はもちろん、マスクを開いた素顔も歯をかみ締めている物があります。小さな変化ですが効果は感じられます。他にも三種類のハンドパーツ、データウェポンヴァイパーウィップ、両腕のタービン回転を表現したエフェクトパーツが付属します。肝心の可動ですが、良く動くとは言えません。デザインのせいもあるのですが、肩は引き出し機構は無く、ごく普通のポールジョイント。胴体は胸と腰に間接があり前屈、後屈、左右のひねりが出来ますがひねっている程度で、ガンプラのように回転させたりは出来ません。脚はかなり特殊な仕様で、１８０度開脚できるのですが死角があります。前に突き出した前蹴りは出来ても回し蹴りが出来ません。文句が多くなりましたが騎士凰牙としてはこれ以上は望めないだろうという出来、テレビを見ていたファン向けです。

当時放送中のアニメで、意外とカッコイイなぁと思っていて、こちらで購入することが出来て、良かったです。
