Episode 72 of ”Fang of the Sun Dougram”—many of you likely remember that intense scene vividly. At the heart of the mission that held Dr. Samarin’s fate was that specially equipped Dougram with a hang glider. That memory now returns as a physical model. The recently re-released ”COMBAT ARMORS MAX29” is not just a simple reproduction. With the addition of new parts, it is designed to faithfully recreate the in-show specifications based on the updated version of Dougram, bringing back the excitement of that time right into your hands.

A noteworthy feature of this model is its ”compatible specification,” allowing you to recreate both the normal ”Dougram” and the hang glider-equipped type through interchangeable parts. Being able to enjoy two different forms with a single assembly is a very pleasing point for both collectors and fans of the series. Because it uses a ”switching” approach rather than a transformation, there is no compromise on detail in either state, bringing out the maximum charm of each.

While assembly is primarily snap-fit, the fact that some parts require adhesive can be seen as proof of the pursuit of precision. It also features joint articulation via poly-caps, and with every move, its presence as a ”heavyweight weapon” is felt. Particularly eye-catching are the pre-cut vacuum-formed parts used for the wings of the hang glider. This choice of material reproduces a firm tension despite being thin, making the aerial gliding scenes from the show feel realistic.

Your heart leaps even before opening the box—that is the package art for this product. It was created by Hidetaka Tenjin, who is famous for numerous mecha illustrations. The Dougram depicted with his dynamic brushwork and colors boasts an intensity that could already be called a ”finished work.” This box art, which maximizes the excitement of a plastic model, will surely be a standout presence on any collection shelf.
