Duke Weiguo
Height: 16.8 m
Power Source: Psionic Resonance Engine, Eight-Gate Magnetic Pole Engine · Activate
Power Specification: Psionic Particle Reactor with a concentration of 1/50,000 molar
This auxiliary psionic mecha was developed by collecting the psionic particles of Li Jing, a famous general of the Tang Dynasty and one of the Twenty-Four Meritorious Officials of Lingyan Pavilion, to serve as its reactor core. It utilizes a mid-spec psionic power engine for output and belongs to the combat forces of the Asia-Pacific Theater.
As the fourth unit developed under the Talos Project for the Asia-Pacific Theater, it was deployed in battles against alien polluters. Serving as a support mecha for Russia, it is stationed with combat forces near Komsomolsk-on-Amur, Russia, fighting alongside the Russian army against the alien polluters.
Accessories include: Rechargeable Particle Katana · Shengfu (with hilt) x 2; Mountable Variable Particle Shield · Jingjue x 2; High-Power Concentrated Particle Cannon · Zhenyue; Detachable Tactical Backpack; Tactical Backpack Stand x 2; Fully Automatic Lightweight Beam Assault Rifle · Zhenjun x 2; Shoulder Funnel Storage Compartment x 2; Spare Energy Unit x 2; Particle Katana Storage Compartment x 2; Funnels x 8; Funnel Stands x 8; Funnel Stand Adapters x 8; Circular Funnel Stand; Might of Lingyan Pavilion Effect Parts x 24; Posing Hands x 6 pairs; Magnetic Nameplate; Metal Base and Stand, etc... A truly vibrant and spectacular display!
Currently, finished toys and models from mainland China, regardless of price or quality, are indeed directly threatening Japanese-produced branded toys... The Duke Weiguo introduced this time, with its appearance, and especially its cost-performance ratio, has already crushed many competitors! And this Ultimate Grade, priced at around HKD 1,000, can certainly be said to have completely overturned the entire toy market's perception of die-cast finished toys!
If I were to compare it with similar types of toys, I would directly use Bandai's Metal Build/GFFMC. The Ultimate Grade merely adds lighting effects, a magnetic base, and so on... The main body's appearance and craftsmanship are extremely detailed. In terms of QC, honestly, it's genuinely better than Bandai's! The articulation is also on par with the Metal Build series, and the alloy content ratio is high. However, I'm not an alloy enthusiast, so alloy enthusiasts can add points for themselves! Furthermore, the joint tightness is very well adjusted, and the weapons and interchangeable hand accessories are also very abundant. But the most astonishing thing is indeed its price... The quality of a product priced at HKD 1,000 is actually better and larger (1/72?) than a Metal Build costing over HKD 2,000... If factors like IP are excluded, I completely don't understand how their costs are calculated...
The mystery box is the main course! Whether you can get a limited weapon/bust for free depends on your luck! I believe Moshow will release more products of this type in the future. Since Kai no Tora also has two other color variations, the Duke Weiguo's alternate color (blue?) is 90% likely to be an event exclusive! Although I'm short on cash, collecting this entire series wouldn't affect my quality of life!
With this quality and price, I truly have nothing to criticize; it is definitely one of D.M.S.'s Top Ten Best Buys of 2025! Just look at the pictures; there's nothing more to add. "Scourge of God," "Dragon of Echigo," and other Ancestral Effect mechas are believed to be released soon in Ultimate Grade specifications. I'd gladly pay an extra HKD 100 for the price! Just wait and see!
