The arms on the back move pretty freely too.

Black & White action.

This kit is the Marutoys Tamotu [White Ver.] plastic model released by Kotobukiya. It's identical in every part configuration to the Black Ver. released alongside it — the only difference is the molded color (Tamotu Black Ver. review for reference).

Just like the Black Ver., it comes with a full-body internal frame along with legs and arms that move in a variety of ways. It's a futuristic robot plastic model with smooth assembly and articulation, plus solid joint strength. The quality is genuinely good, so it'd be great to pick whichever color suits your taste and build it :-) (Of course, building both is great too~)
