Product Description
The Shiranui Akatsuki Gundam model includes a variety of articulation capabilities that promise poseability and fun. The head is supported by a single ball joint, allowing for a large range of motion, while the shoulders have ball joints for horizontal lifting and limited tilting. The arm and upper thigh joints include swivel movement, which improves dynamic posing possibilities. Although the elbow and knee joints can only bend 90 degrees, this does not severely limit the model's mobility.
The waist's rotation feature provides another element of realism, but with some limitations due to the skirt armor panels. This is sensibly countered by pivotable front and side skirt armors, which allow for more flexible leg movement. However, the rear skirt armor's fixed position restricts backward leg movement. The ankles have a limited pivot/tilt mechanism, which adds to the model's stability and diversity of postures.
