This is a rather old and rare kit, a completed 1/100 scale soft vinyl kit of the Xabungle by Romando. I built it around last year. It involves cutting out pre-painted parts and assembling them with instant glue. It's a fully articulated kit, but the range of motion is somewhat limited. It was my first time working with a soft vinyl kit. You heat the parts with a hairdryer and cut them out with a cutter or design knife. It's quite challenging and requires some ingenuity to cut them cleanly, but it becomes fun once you get used to it. The sculpting is also good, and I enjoyed displaying it. Since it's a kit from over 30 years ago, the joints are made of very small plastic parts that can easily break. The one in the head broke, so I reinforced it with brass wire to make it properly movable. You could probably move it without worry if you install commercially available joint parts like those from Wave. Although it's pre-painted, I've retouched, painted, and panel-lined areas where the color was lacking, so please refer to the photos. I've painted the weapons and the tips of the feet, among other things. The triple bazooka can be attached to the main body, but it attaches relatively easily when heated with a hairdryer. However, it seems to shrink slightly when it cools, as you can see in the photos. I guess that's just the nature of soft vinyl kits, but I personally prefer the plain Xabungle, so I displayed it without attaching it. If you want to attach it, heat it with a hairdryer before attaching. When holding the rifle, you'll also need to heat the wrist parts with a hairdryer and swap them out. Since the rifle is meant to be glued to the wrist parts, I haven't glued it, so please use instant glue when swapping it. The original box, instructions, and extra joint parts are also included, so please refer to the photos. The instructions are easy to understand, and the illustrations are very cute. It's an out-of-print kit, but I think it's a rare kit that captures the characteristics of the anime version of Xabungle well. How about it for those who find building it troublesome and want to display it right away?
