Review PB HGAC Vayeate and Mercurius


This is the review of PB HGAC Vayeate and Mercurius (Gundam Wing Series)

The unique shape of the MS is well reproduced, and there are many gimmicks in the weapons, so the expressive power of the impressive attack scene is high.
There is a part where the movement is restricted by interference, but I think that it is a kit that makes use of the characteristics unique to Vayeate & Mercurius that it is supplemented with weapons.

There aren’t many points to worry about, but I wonder if it’s possible to make seams in each part and the shoulders will come off a little when holding the beam cannon. If you force the crotch part, it may come off or be damaged, so you need to be careful when handling it.

Although it is a set of two, the structure is almost the same, so it is easy to assemble and you can complete it quickly. Even so, the kit is finished to the extent that it is not inferior to RG, so I would like to enjoy the long-awaited three-dimensionalization and reproduce the impressive scene where the Gundam pilot boarded.

The OZ-13MSX1 Vayeate (aka Vayeate) is a limited production offensive mobile suit, forcefully developed for OZ. The unit is featured in the anime Mobile Suit Gundam Wing, it was piloted by Trowa Barton and later by Lady Une. It was designed by Hajime Katoki.
Vayeate’s motif is derived from the Fujin, the Japanese God of the Wind.
Armaments:
Beam Cannon
A powerful Beam Cannon that was designed to give a devastating blow to its enemies, almost as effective as the buster rifle of the XXXG-01W Wing Gundam. It has an almost infinite “ammunition” charge due to the large energy collector mounted to back of the Vayeate. It is one of the few weapons powerful enough to melt through Gundanium Alloy.

The OZ-13MSX2 Mercurius (aka Mercurius) is a limited production mobile suit operated by OZ. Featured in the Mobile Suit Gundam Wing series, it was piloted by Heero Yuy and later by Quatre Raberba Winner. It was designed by Hajime Katoki.

Armaments:
Beam Gun
Crash Shield:
A shield that is integrated with a powerful beam saber, this weapon allows the Mercurius to block and attack almost simultaneously.
Planet Defensor:
A small disc-shaped object that generate an energy shield, the Mercurius is equipped with ten planet defensors on its back to defend itself or an allied mobile suit. The planet defensors can repel just about any attack, even from the XXXG-00W0 Wing Gundam Zero’s twin buster rifles. However, a period of powerful shots against the planet defensors can cause them to be weakened and lose their power to produce an energy shield. When low on energy, they can return to the Mercurius for recharging.

Selling price 4,180 yen (tax included)
