Kotobukiya Version of Saber Tiger
I have been a Zoids fan for nearly 25 years. The thought of animal-shaped mecha armies is awesome, and plastic models that can walk around your apartment floor with a simple battery-powered motor is genius. I've owned a bunch of them, through childhood and again in college. After all the life events, the Saber Tiger (original TOMY version) remained on my bookshelf. When I saw this "Highend Master Model" version by Kotobukiya, I knew instantly that I had to get one. Life was given to this robotic beast when the details were designed to allow movements and poses in a "natural" and "realistic" way. It's not to say that the TOMY version, with joints designed to walk and bite at a flip of a switch, was any inferior. It's just that the intended purposes of the two are drastically different. While TOMY made toys for the younger crowd to play with, the HMM version is more like the sophisticated Gundam models for collection and display. The experience in building this plastic model also differed from what I was used to. This version is more refined and more complex. For example, the TOMY version had just one part to each paw, and the Kotobukiya version has 15. Constructing this version of the Saber Tiger took a lot more time and patience. Some of the steps were not very easy to follow and glue was necessary to keep some small parts from falling apart. But when you're done with each section and look at the details that you just put together, it's really rewarding. It's been great to re-live my childhood experience in a more grown-up way, to the more grown-up standards. I look forward to building more of these HMM Zoids models.

Requires some extra paint
Requires some extra detail work to look like it did in the picture. Very cool piece. A little frustrated a couple of times at the placements of the injection kit plaques (when they happened to land on pivotal sections like the lip of the tiger, which left a white residue from the cutting off of the plastic. Very nice in every other regard, though.

初めてコトブキヤのゾイドを購入しました。 恥ずかしながら自分は塗装をやったことがありません。 ですが、作り終えて塗装は必要ないと思いました! 墨入れ・塗装しなくても十分なクオリティーです。 買って損はありませんでした^^ ただ瞬間接着剤は用意した方がいいかもです。 簡単に外れてしまうパーツもありますので(泣)

元々は旧ゼネバス帝国ゾイド「サーベルタイガー」であり、ゾイド初の大型高速機でもあります。旧ゾイドファンの中にはサーベルタイガーといえば”ダニー・ダンカン将軍”をすぐに思いつく方も少なくないでしょう(彼はゼネバスを狙ったウルトラの360mm砲の盾になり戦死、後に彼の弟トビーがデス様の初パイロットとなり、兄の仇を討つこととなる)。 タカラトミー版ではセイバーとシールドは構造が酷似していますが、このHMMセイバーは、HMMシールドとは全く別物と言っていいほどの可動範囲を誇ります。思ったより箱が小さいなと思ったら、やっぱりパーツがびっしり。じっくりのんびり取りかかりましょう♪ 胴体も単に差し込み式でなく、可動部分が引き出し式で、かなりくねってくれます。脚部も間接の可動に併せて装甲が可動する箇所もあったりと、とにかく可動の拡大に挑戦している意欲作ですね。今回はストライククローもパーツが縦に別れており、パーツのつなぎ目が出てこないように考慮されていますが、まだまだつなぎ目が目立たないようなパーツ構成や、ゲート跡が残らないようランナーをアンダーゲート式にしてくれると嬉しいですね♪ ただやはりスマートすぎて、元祖のモチーフとなったスミロドン(サーベルタイガーの最大種)のプロポーションからはかけ離れてしまった感は否めません。 HMMシールドMk−IIがリリースされたと言うことは、HMMグレートサーベルのリリースの可能性もかなり高いのではないのでしょうか?
