HG Desultor - Together with the HG Dilanza released as a standard retail kit.

Together with the HG Dilanza released as a standard retail kit.

This is the HG Desultor, released as a Club G (Premium Bandai) online exclusive. It's a mobile suit from Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch from Mercury, and story-wise it's essentially the predecessor to the Dilanza — built entirely from brand-new tooling.

The biggest highlight is that you can recreate the various configurations the suit appears in throughout the show by mixing and matching its weapon loadout — you've got the default form plus Equipment A, Equipment B, and Equipment C (Olcott's unit). The weapons included to pull this off are the assault rifle, Belta Blood R3 (large recoilless cannon), grenade launcher, drone container, and Troop Rucksack. The drone container and Troop Rucksack both feature hatch-opening gimmicks, and the heat knives in both arms are also done up in a fold-in/deploy style.

The main body has solid articulation and stable joint strength, though the thick legs do make the range of motion feel a touch limited. That said, for a polycap-less kit, the overall assembly feel and movement are nicely tuned and smooth. Thanks to that, you can comfortably pull off a wide variety of poses with all the different weapons.

All in all, as a completely new-tooling kit, it delivers solid build quality and a generous set of contents. It's honestly one of the best kits in the Witch from Mercury lineup, and if the design appeals to you, it's an easy buy without any hesitation. :-)
