I guess that's the reason why I decided to stick it out with the HCM Pro complete set. I couldn't find the 1/44 Super Gundam and the RX-178 + Flying armor would cost about P1500. So basically in getting the HCM Pro, I guess I may have saved at least P500 The MG ver 2 would have cost me P2500 plus the Super Gundam kit (for the G-Defensor parts) would cost me the same so I guess I may have saved P2500 Wonder if there's still a GFF #19 out there for sale.... www.hlj.com/product/BAN922805Get that GFF #0019, A lot of weapons and accessories. Can combine the Full Armor w/ the G defenser w/ a little twist! ;D BTW nice HCM pro Gundam Mk II complete set.

Just a little update on some stuff: Here's the HCM Pro Hammurabi on top of my office computer: Here's the HCM Pro Hammurabi beside a Hazel Custom Dengeki Gashapon. As you can see, the Hazel gashapon at 1/200 is a lot smaller than the 1/200 Hammurabi.

bro, cool HCM's Hammurabi and Hazel Gasha.
di kaya malaki lang talaga ang Hammurabi sa Hazel based on their scaled heights?

sweet! how is it overall?! The Hammurabi is a design that....needs to grow on you. Right now I think I figured out the mode I want to display it in -- It's right now on my desk in mech mode but with the wings folded back and the loooong rifle being cradled by both hands/arms. Transformation is go-bot simple -- just put it on its belly and flip the legs to the back and straighten the feet (ala-chinese backbreaking acrobat) then extend the tail. As for the Hazel Gashapon...well, it's P200 and what you pay for is what you get Is the Hammurabi sulit? Well, for a Z Gundam mech that came out only as HCM Pro and MSIA in recent memory, yeah, it's got it's "rare" value. I wouldn't pay more for the price I got it, though. In short....For P1250, I'd rather get the Asshimar or the (cheaper) MSIA Infinite Justice.

ah. thanks for the quickie review.
but still, its just pitiful that it doesnt come with those stands the asshimar has.
lastly, are the joints stiff like the hcmpro asshimar's?!

Yes they are -- so far I can hold it at the tip of its head and turn it in all directions and nothing would succumb to gravity's pull. But if there's one area that's going to get loose soon, it's the hip joints. They're ball-and-socket style and they get moved the most during constant transformation. It's not as flappy as my HCM Pro Zeta. I guess others can do a rebuttal on in and say that clear nail polish lang katapat ng loose ball-and-socket joints. BTW-- I forgot to mention that the Hammurabi has a cool paint job in that there are stripes all over it to detail the mech (same as with the Zeta HCM Pro). The stripes come in a darker shade of blue. I guess the non-rubber-like surface of the HCM Pro series makes them ideal for paint detailing.

mmmmm... im getting itchy for one now........ If I had an extra P1k, I'd go and pick up the MSIA version as well. At least I think that has a stand for it's MA mode -- and it is a unique MA mode indeed in the Gundam universe! (ala manta ray). The right ball and socket hip joint of my Hammurabi is getting loose already due to posing and transforming

so i guess the hip joints are tolerable to loosen... tsk.
but the most unique transformation in the gundam universe is the asshimar - as its called the "flying hamburger".

its a good kit - although slimmer in design but it still delivers nicely.
