Review - 1/144 HGBF Crossbone Maoh Gundam

A very long time since I posted reviews of Gunpla in my blog. Welcome back again to another post of review in Gunpla Re-BOOT!

This time I'm gonna do review about this awesome variant of Crossbone Gundam, Crossbone Gundam Maoh. As you know that this variant is built by Yasaka Mao in Gundam Build Fighter anime in the last episode.

Without wasting anytime, let us go for the review.




Crossbone Maoh


I like the construction way much better than the Master Grade version which the latter feel lame especially on elbow joint and ankle joint. If Bandai want to release this version in Master Grade, they better use new frame design rather than recycle the old inner frame. (Knowing Bandai scheme, they would probably recycle it back)

Size Comparison

with Gundam X

with O Gundam

with Reborn Gundam

Knowing the actual size is 15.7 meter, when it is scale down to 1/144 the size just getting smaller. You need to be careful when dealing with the plastics and not to break them.

Completed Model



Compared to the original design, this Crossbone Maoh is totally awesome especially the big skull on it's chest part.

Armamennts



Crossbone Gun & Sword



Beam Zanber


Buster Gun


Zanbuster


Arm Pack + Beam Saber


Heat Dagger


Skull Satellite Cannon

Conclusion


This kit is a High Grade, therefore don't expect anything like a Real Grade. The articulation is good and the kit can do awesome poses. However, since it is HG, the body part sometimes popped out of place from the waist because it use PC joint to connect them together. Nevertheless, this kit can hold it's backpack weight compared to the Master Grade version with the loose joint here and there. This kit is highly recommended for those who like Crossbone Gundam and probably for Yasaka Mao. LOL
