Kit Review
Straight build + Waterslide decals
Size comparison with a cigarette pack
Four old-release Vifam series mecha are bundled together.
Articulation typical of old-release kits.
1/144 NEOFAM with SLING PANNIER
1/144 Neo Fam Sling Pannier Equipped Type
The sling pannier can be swapped out for a standard backpack,
but since you have to glue everything down, you'll need to pick one or the other.
Lift the backpack up and you can see the escape pod stored inside.
Escape pod
Weapons and hand configuration
The limbs spread out quite a bit to the sides, and the shoulders also move forward and back.

1/144 TORUNFAM with SLING PANNIER
Touranfam Sling Pannier Equipped Type
Weapons and hand configuration
Open the backpack up and down and you can see the escape pod stored inside.
The escape pod has its wings folded, but you can detach them and spread them out.
Of course, since this is an all-glue kit, you'll have to take it apart and re-glue it.

The sling pannier connection point on the backpack can be replaced with a closed cover part,
but again, since it has to be glued, you can't just swap it out freely.
The arms can raise out to the sides, but the legs can't spread very wide.
Forward/backward shoulder articulation
Sling pannier deployment.
Unlike the Vifam/Neo Fam's sling pannier, there are additional sub-wings at the tips that fold out via articulated joints.

1/24 TWINKLE HEAD
1/24 Twinkle Head
Just like the 1/24 All Over, the elbow doesn't articulate — instead,
you can swap in a forearm part that's bent at 90 degrees.
Open the canopy and there's an upper-body figure of Barts Lyan inside.
A separate figure of Penchi Iraizer is also included,
and the sculpt has that same charming old-school feel.
Together with the Claire Barbland figure that came in Vifam Set 1.

You can also apply a part that shows the cockpit in an open state,
but again, it has to be glued, so you can't swap it out freely.
The arms can raise out to the sides, but the legs can't move sideways at all.
There's a gimmick where the two pin-style ankle joints move independently when you tilt the ankles to the side.
