Robot Tamashii - 00 Gundam

This is Robot Tamashii 00 Gundam from the 2nd season of the anime Mobile Suit Gundam 00 piloted by Setsuna F. Seiei.

I bought this thanks to the recent Special Gundam Sale by HLJ where they give 50% off for this item and also for all the 4 heroes from the Gundam 00 anime 2nd season (Seravee/Seraphim/Arios/Cherudim).

Original price was 2,500 yen and after 50% discount it is only 1,250 yen - absolutely crazy price and no further thinking needed.

Eventually I just bought the Seravee/Seraphim set and this 00 only. I did not buy the Arios and Cherudim as I plan to just get the HG 1/144 kits and also for GN Archer as well.

The box...




Out of the box...


Let's see the body...










Comparison between the Robot Tamashii and the HG 1/144 GunPla kit (Designer Color Ver.) of the same model. It seems the HG 1/144 kit is slightly taller as the leg is longer than the Tamashii model.


The face of the Tamashii...


The face of the HG 1/144 kit


The elbow part of Tamashii...


The elbow part of HG 1/144 kit...


Articulation on the arms... they are almost the same... not much to compare...


Articulations on the ankle for Tamashii...


Articulation on the knee for HG 1/144 kit


H0wever, the Tamashii model have this particular articulation on it's foot...


Something that the HG 1/144 kit don't have...


OK time for some posing... don't worry as we have already seen lots of action pose from my previous HG 1/144 00 Gundam Designer Color Version, there wont be too many photos this time around. In many ways it's basically the same...











Well, that's all for now... if you're lazy or not interested to venture into assembling/building the GunPla model kits, Robot Tamashii should be a perfect choice for you though they have such a limited range in terms of models selection but if you only interested with all the heroes mobile suits from the Mobile Suit Gundam 00 anime, then I guess Robot Tamashii Division from Bandai can cater your need accordingly.

This item have decent details, nicely painted, sturdy joints systems and nice articulation ability - all you need for a nice toy or even for safe keeping as collection items...

I personally preferred 00 Gundam over Exia... I know many of you guys out there love Exia and in fact last time I'm the same but ever since I saw 00 Gundam, my heart changed.

One of the reason I got this item is so that I can take it out to accompany me for lunch/dinner as I don't want to bring out my HG 1/144 kit... worried that something may break or missing....

At (original price) 2,500 yen - that is quite decent infact - almost the same price as Figma, very nice and very affordable.

And as Bandai planning to introduce the PG 1/60 00 Gundam - that could easily be my top priority when choosing my first ever PG 1/60 from Bandai someday...

At the moment, I only have 2 in my mind... PG RX-78 GP01 FB and the other is of coz none other than the PG Strike Gundam.

  1. didn't know the tamashi line's 00 had an extra articulation on the leg haha. The colors looks good for this one. Are you getting the 7 swords version? Of all the variations that is my favorite ^^. Looks like you got lots of good grabs from HLJ sales.

  2. PG GP01/Fb more fun (more expensive too) because can convert between 2 modes! take that!

  3. Exactly Mike... beside the ability to switch to 2 modes, it also comes with this extra display base accessories where you can create a "hangar" for Gundam... looks very cool... it's no. 1 in my PG wish list now but then again, I still want to see how the PG 00-Raiser set looks like by end of this year... it's gonna be expensive investment so I rather wait a little while before "burning" my pocket...
