Bandai HG 1/144 Man Rodi
This model embodies the technological pinnacle of the famous piloted mobile armour within the Post-Disaster timeline. Every part of the internal structure faithfully reproduces the original mechanical design, whilst featuring a level of engraving detail unprecedented for this compact scale. The subtle shades of the coloured plastics create a striking visual contrast that brings the robot to life as soon as assembly is complete, without the need for any touch-up painting.
The exclusive articulation system in this version is based on the heavy-duty structure characteristic of space mechas, enabling it to replicate the flexibility of the human body with remarkable fluidity. The thick armour plates and massive curves move in unison with the limbs’ movements to preserve the robot’s stocky silhouette even in its most dynamic space-combat poses. This centrepiece stands as the indispensable heart of any display dedicated to the world of giant combat robots.
