【Danball Senki】The chance to get it again has arrived! LBX Odin, which was sold out for a long time, has come! Get your hands on LBX Odin, made into a 3D figure as Hyper Function equipped with a new transformation gimmick!

Anyone who knows “Danball Senki” might recall the battle of Ban Yamano just by hearing “Odin”. Such LBX Odin has revived as the high-end model “Hyper Function”. Not simply being able to assemble a nostalgic machine once more, but being able to thoroughly enjoy from internal structures to armor, articulation, and transformation is a major point of this product. Not to mention people who want to display and enjoy its active figure in the show, it is an existence of interest even for people who think “I want to thoroughly savor the mecha called LBX itself”. The density feel unique to Hyper Function revived on Premium Bandai further enhances the charm of the popular machine named Odin.

What I want to pay attention to first is the Core Skeleton serving as the foundation of the machine. Precise mecha details making one feel “Even though it's a part hard to see once attaching armor, is it crafted this far?” are reproduced, and there is a unique coolness even in the state before equipping armor. Furthermore, adopting a structure where you can attach or replace armor frames onto the Core Skeleton. Differing slightly from general models where you enjoy only the completed appearance, the process itself of “clothing the skeleton in armor to complete the LBX” becomes play. Gazing at the internal frame, and finishing into a silhouette typical of Odin little by little from there. Being able to experience this change with your own hands is where fun typical of Hyper Function lies.

Of course, strength is also put into the appearance when completed as Odin. Because each armor is made so it can be attached and detached smoothly, being able to enjoy going back and forth between the Core Skeleton and the completed state is a pleasing point. And set colorings are reproduced through multi-color molding, specified so that you can solidly feel a presence typical of Odin when assembled. Just because it is a model where you can enjoy internal structures does not mean the exterior is an extra, establishing both frame and armor as highlights. This dual nature would lead precisely to satisfaction as a high-end model.

When talking about Odin, the characteristic Flying Form cannot be omitted. In this product, by taking advantage of articulation mechanisms in various parts such as arms and legs, that unique transformation can be reproduced. Rather than “ending after striking a pose in normal form”, because you can transform it into another form while moving the machine itself, breadth is naturally born in ways to play as well. If transforming into Flying Form after thoroughly enjoying the heroic figure during normal times, even with the same single unit, the impression changes greatly. For people who want to re-experience the image in the show of “Danball Senki” at their own hands, isn't this gimmick a quite important point?

And where you can fully feel the characteristic of Hyper Function is articulation performance. Possessing a wide range of motion, it corresponds not only to displaying standing, but also to dynamic action poses reminiscent of being in combat. Furthermore, because wrist parts with different expressions are prepared, directing down to fine nuances that cannot be fully expressed by arm angles or leg spreads alone is possible. Just changing the pose slightly changes the machine's atmosphere, making you want to think “What scene shall I reproduce next?”. Odin's sharp design and rich articulation have good compatibility, finishing into a model you want to touch while imagining the figure running around in the show.

As armament that further liven up action, Retaliator is also included. If making it readies the weapon taking advantage of the range of motion of Odin's main unit, you can direct power typical of battle scenes even more strongly. Also, because original stickers are included, it is a structure where you can enjoy not only assembly and posing, but up to finishing. Making it hold Retaliator while searching for a favorite angle, choosing wrists, and adjusting the posture of the entire body. Including even such trial and error, I think that is the play of this model.

That the package is specified in full color cannot be missed by collectors either. Assembling and enjoying the contents is of course the main character, but wanting to own including up to the package is what items of favorite works are. Precise Core Skeleton, detachable armor, color reproduction by multi-color molding, transformation to Flying Form, highly flexible articulation, expression-rich wrists, and Retaliator. Lining up characteristics like this, as the name “Hyper Function” indicates, elements where you can enjoy Odin from various angles are condensed. Giving nostalgia and new discoveries to people who enjoyed “Danball Senki” back then, and delivering making fun and moving interest to people who like the machine named Odin, it is a figure that makes you want to touch thoroughly.
