Chinese toy manufacturer Earnestcore Craft has announced its latest product from the world of "Maschinen Krieger (Ma.K.)", created by Japanese sci-fi military godfather Kow Yokoyama: the P.K.A. Ausf G "Gustav" 1/16 scale action figure! This release will be distributed by the Japanese model company WAVE and is scheduled for release in late October 2021.
Created by Kow Yokoyama, the original sci-fi series "Ma.K." is set in the 29th century. After the Fourth World War leaves Earth a desolate wasteland, two factions vie for control of the dead planet: the Strahl Democratic Republic and the Independent Mercenary Army. The wide variety of combat armors and vehicles used by both sides has attracted a massive following of sci-fi and military model kit fans.
The Gustav is a P.K.A. series powered armor suit utilized by the Strahl Democratic Republic forces, developed as an upgraded variant to enhance the P.K.A.'s standalone ground combat effectiveness. This figure stands approximately 14 cm tall and features extensive articulation and a wealth of accessories. The use of fabric material to cover the joints is a particularly appealing design choice. In addition to multiple optional hands, the left arm can be swapped for an Excimer laser launcher, similar to the one used on the Mercenary Army's "S.A.F.S." The pilot figure comes with two different head sculpts. Combined with the included Panzerfaust and a chest-mounted LED light-up feature, you can recreate a variety of combat poses!
▼ The printed insignia and markings on the armor, along with the heavy weathering, are an absolute feast for the eyes. Absolutely stunning!
