HY2M

The humongous HY2M was on display at Chara Hobby along with other 1/12 scale red, green and silver Zaks. What I didnt know was that the HY2M comes with a remote to control a ton of present Gundam type sounds like the vulcan cannons, explosions and farts. The eyes light up too and this one on display had some coolsome decals - which probably come with the kit.
Folks in Japan can get theirs for a laughable 315000 yen at Amazon. If you're ordering online, bear in mind that it weighs over 35Kgs.
Here are the jumbo parts that come in the kit. Not as detailed as I thought it would be - the hand for example is one piece. Hmmm. Coming to think of it, the hand that comes with PG strike is also one piece. Coming to think about it more, I would definitely get this if it was wearable armor instead.
Only saw poses with the arms and head in different positions - the legs always seemed to be in the normal standing stance. I would be surprised if it could do the kneeling or adjusting underpants pose.
The people who set up this "diorama" should probably be shot in the kneecaps.
You probably saw a ton of news re the RX78 but did you know about the 1/12 scale Zaks too?
Now the question has to be, if you had the cash, would you get one of these or a Candy Girl ?
