KOTOBUKIYA, the Japanese model manufacturer, recently announced the latest product in its highly customizable original plastic model kit series, 'HEXA GEAR,' the "V-THOR & PAWN X1 Night Stalkers Ver.," scheduled for release in August 2023.
Named after the God of Thunder, 'V-THOR' was originally a commemorative product released by Kotobukiya to celebrate the fifth anniversary of the 'HEXA GEAR' series. It features a bipedal humanoid structure, stands at a height of 206mm, and boasts the highest range of articulation in the series to date. Its exterior armor adopts a skeletal, hollow design, deliberately exposing internal artificial muscle details. It is also equipped with double joints and interlocking armor mechanisms, allowing for natural high kicks, kneeling, and prone firing poses.
The "V-THOR & PAWN X1 Night Stalkers Ver." bundles the previously released HEXA GEAR "V-THOR" and Governor "PAWN X1." Both units feature a matching Night Stalkers color scheme, with jet black armor and bright orange frames, presenting a distinct style compared to their original gray and white counterparts. This allows for recreating cool scenes of PAWN X1 piloting V-THOR.
・V-THOR Night Stalkers Ver.
Features 8 molding colors including black, gunmetal, metallic orange, red, silver, metallic red, clear red, and metallic clear red, along with excellent human-like articulation. The chest armor can open to reveal a hidden cockpit, allowing a Governor character like PAWN X1, which is similar in size, to board. Its armaments include a "Rifle" that can be swapped between Gatling gun and plasma cannon forms, a "Large Shield" that can be used as a backpack thruster or hoverboard, and the massive 28.3 cm long Charged Super Large Tactical Blade "Scarlet Blood," which can be switched between a physical blade and an energy blade.
・PAWN X1 Night Stalkers Ver.
Produced with 3 molding colors: black, light gray, and dark gray, featuring flexible articulated joints despite its 80mm height. The large combat knife on its left leg can be detached and held in hand. It also comes with a long sword and rifle for play.
