ULTRAMAN SUIT Ver.7
Height: 1.97 m
Weight: 0.138 t
Pilot: Moroboshi Dan
Moroboshi Dan's dedicated combat suit, characterized by its masked eyes. Within the Science Special Search-Party, due to its version number, this combat suit is referred to as Suit Seven. It was designed for wear by ordinary individuals (those without the Ultraman Factor). While the suit itself has fewer inherent functions, its design accounts for various external equipment, offering expandability, and thus it is considered a versatile experimental piece of equipment. However, the burden on the user remains significant, and even after its deployment in combat, it continues to undergo updates.
Standard equipment includes the Japanese katana-style main weapon, the Specium Sword, and as a secondary weapon, a long-range throwing weapon resembling an an ice axe, the Throwing Knife. The Specium Sword, by flowing Specium through its blade, not only enhances its cutting power but also demonstrates powerful capabilities for long-range attacks.
From "ULTRAMAN" (the manga/anime), the "SEVEN SUIT" piloted by Moroboshi Dan is perfectly realized in three dimensions within the Blokees Legendary Edition series! Unlike the protagonist Shinjiro's fighting style, the SEVEN SUIT is known for its cold weapon combat and sharp design. This model faithfully recreates its cool, mechanical aesthetic.
Featuring extensive metallic-textured paintwork, it meticulously presents the SEVEN SUIT's iconic silver and deep red hues, with a texture far surpassing that of typical assembly models. Blokees' patented articulated frame allows the SEVEN SUIT to effortlessly strike classic "drawing sword" poses, high-difficulty slashing movements, and dynamic heroic kneeling combat stances.
The core weapon, the "Specium Sword," is exquisitely detailed and can be held or sheathed. Multiple sets of interchangeable hands are included, designed for various armaments and poses, enhancing playability. Blokees' unique color-separated molding and assembly logic require no glue; the parts have a smooth feel and excellent fit, allowing both veteran hobbyists and newcomers to enjoy a smooth assembly experience.
If typical domestic models leave you exhausted, then Blokees' blocks are a breath of fresh air!
Frankly, the model's articulation and structure would be impossible without referencing Bandai! But honestly, Blokees has indeed put a lot of thought and effort into its design!
Let's start with the drawbacks! After assembly, some parts are not particularly secure; if you want better fit, you can use glue! The ankle joint design is a bit strange, affecting the main body's ground contact. That's all.
As for the advantages, assembly can definitely be described as "easy and enjoyable"! This is because the injection gate/sprue marks are handled with a snap-off design; you just twist it off with a bit of force! Therefore, the gate marks are extremely fine, which is very convenient for children during assembly. However, for me, it actually added a slight difficulty. To achieve a clean gate mark, one still needs to use a two-cut method and sand the nubs, so dealing with the extremely fine gate pillars can be a bit challenging.
The appearance is somewhat stylized, but it's definitely my cup of tea! I simply sprayed the original red plastic gold, and it already gave it a refreshing new look! Articulation is acceptable, actually similar to typical S.H.Figuarts (SHF). But to own such a high-quality model for just over a hundred yuan can truly crush any brand and competitor! I'm still looking forward to seeing which ULTRAMAN final form will be released next!
