Okay. I have built... Neverlia... (another fucking name change?)
So, with the twins bandai tried to introduce a bunch of new tech into the line, purpose being that it would add additional poseability to the kits. It did not work at all, and the twins wound up having the worst movement of the line so far.
Neverlia (being much larger than the twins) gets a lot more room to work the new waist in and also has a redesigned midriff block, where the joint is essentially the shoulder cups from most modern gundam hgs. It technically works quite well, only issue being that the edges of the hexagonal section on her belly get caught on each other and can cause severe gouging of the extremely soft bandai plastic. The upper torso range is absolutely nuts, and can bend almost 90° forward, but at the cost of a 90° cavity opening up where the upper body once was. Fortunately, though they still have a bit of trouble getting strait out in front of her, the legs a much better than last time, not getting hung out quite as badly.
All in all her articulation can basically allow her to bend so far forward that her head can actually go between her legs. Unfortunately the cost is that her back looks absolutely ridiculous.
She has pom ankles, elbows, and wrists. They work just fine. They squeak.
If I had to place her among the 30ms releases she is dead center. Not counting Alka and Far, she is worse than Richetta an Luluce, but better than Taisha and the twins. She is not horrible, but she has a bunch of weaknesses that greatly detract from an otherwise decent package.
I hate the way bandai did her hair articulation. The sides are fine but the back looks like she has a mullet tacked on the back of her head.
