>>5674633Durability edge is gonna go to the RD pretty easily, as the SHCMs lean a tiny bit more towards being models (as opposed to the full-on action figureness of the RD) but the SHCMs are not fragile by any means. SHCMs are very high quality figures with lots of gimmicks to them such as removable armor panels, the option to use a fully functional core fighter on the RX-78 torso, tons and tons of accessories, and they're fully painted AND have diecast in their feet!
I agree, they're still great looking figures! But man, I just love the clean lines and proportions of the RD.
In terms of middlemen, it pains me to say it but Nippon-Yasan is probably the most solid option currently. If you got in your Char Rick Dom preorder with 'em, you should be set!
>>5674556I think my main issue with the SHCM Zaku is how high up the waist tubing is and the head sculpt. The way they handled the chest/waist area on the RD and the RD's head sculpt just totally do it for me, haha.
>>5676879Ahhhhh! It looks fantastic!! And holy crap, we're seriously getting the command car with it!
>>5678453Anon, I love ya, but I'm so glad you were wrong, haha.
>>5679070>>5679072Dang the Zaku is looking superb; I had forgotten they were going to include the commander's spike. Went to AmiAmi to see about grabbing one more, but they've sold out...
Kimaris is looking great too! I love how bulky it looks in contrast to the lithe Barbatos.
>>5679201Seriously! Hopefully they get some more before I have to ship my May order, haha.
