TAMASHII NATIONS Bandai Soul of Chogokin GX-86 Space Battleship Yamato 2202 ''Space Battle Ship Yamato Statue

I recently rediscovered this show which I watched as a child. I went online to see if I could find a die cast model of the Space Battleship Yamato and I was pleased to run across this series. I researched and found several models made by Bandai, Soul of Chogokin. I settled on the newest, the G-86 model. It had the most extras and detail. I was a little nervous spending so much money for this toy, but took the Chance. I was not disappointed. The model arrived in brand new condition and everything about it spoke of high quality. The parts that had to be assembled fit together with no problem, and even though the instructions were in complete Japanese, it was easy to figure out. There are also a lot of videos of it's unboxing to watch on Youtube. Looks great on my desk

This thing is awesome. Would be nice if the instructions came with English additions. But you okay with it for a while and you figure it out. The turrets move cleanly and the added ships/fighters are very detailed for their size. Was the perfect addition for my collection. The sounds are awesome and the lights are cool. My fav is the main gun. The light up effect is crazy. Very well done and worth every cent. I made a video of it working but since I couldn’t keep it (verbally) clean I won’t upload it.

This is an unbelievable item. Not a model in the sense that you build it, although there are additional things you can add to it to enhance the look. Makes a handsome display and is just darn fun to play with all the controls—ship sounds, lights, character voices (In Japanese) and music. Husband loves it and even my girls play with the controls occasionally. I’d highly recommend this for any Starship Yamato enthusiast.

Definitely improvements over the previous Yamato GX releases, especially with the electronics console and the addition of the remote rotating turrets. It's a solid, beautiful piece like all the others that straddles between toy and model kit. The only things lacking for me are an exposed on/off switch and a somewhat "dynamic" pose like the 57. I already put the remote through its paces and I did accidentally manage to make it go into some sort of diagnostic mode where it was shouting the alphabet at me. That only happened once thankfully. The one flaw in my particular piece (the reason for the missing two stars) is the non-working bridge LEDs. It's annoying that they don't light, but not worth the hassle to send it back for replacement.

Absolutely an amazing replica. The best feature is the rotating canons.

This was a gift for a friend, the detail looks nice, the turrets seems easy to install on the base ship. The fighters that come with it look good. I have not heard the firing sounds or seen the remote control in action.

Freakin awsome!

It's not only the ordinary chogokin but with suprising features like sound effects and musics. It will be perfect with more metal components and LED lights

Absolutely what I was looking for! It's a little smaller than I thought, but by no means too small. The detail is stunning, the build quality is excellent, the electronics are flawless. Makes me smile every time I look at it. I loved the show as a kid and this brings back great memories!

Vraiment super jolie et unique je suis choquer de la qualité incroyable mille merci car j'aime beaucoup la gamme gx de bandai soul of chogokin Vraiment merci beaucoup à vous

本日届きました。過去のこのシリーズも購入しましたが、さすがに最新作だけあって、重量感、質感、ギミックともに納得の出来だと思いました。出来れば船体にもう少しボカシ塗装が有ればと思いますが、完成品としては十分でしょう。この商品の売りであるリモコンによる各部の発光、砲塔の旋回、劇中のBGM等、ヤマト2202ファンにはたまらないギミックで、操作しながら劇中に浸れます。ひとつ難点なのは、本体のスイッチを入れるときに、船体のパーツをいちいち取り外さなければならないことかな。細かい部品がたくさん着いているので、取り扱いには気を使います。

1/500の2199を飾ってあるので、欲しいが1年近く悩んだ末、購入しました。やっぱり音が出て光り、しかも動くのはよいですね。なんか気分が盛り上がります。GX-67のアルカディア号よりも大幅に進化した感がありますな。音質も大幅にアップした感じです。造形もおおむね満足で、下部のカタパルト？の中に色付きのコスモタイガーが複数みえてよい感じです。 星一つマイナスの面ですが、第三艦橋と一体化している電池ブタがちょっと反っていて艦体とぴったりにならない点。公式プロモーションVTRの最後のほうの場面でも少し浮いていたので予想はしていましたが・・・。それからほかの方も指摘されていました、第一、第二艦橋の照明が中央に偏っている点、こちらは私はそんなに気になりませんが、ほんの少しの工夫で改善できたのではないでしょうか。 贅沢かもしれませんが、輝艦大全のホワイトベースのように細かい光があったら最高でした。例えば左右の展望室やコスモゼロのカタパルト管制室、下部カタパルトの内部だけでも光っていたら良かったなあ。 付属の艦載機の模型は思ったより造形も色分けも精密でした。自分であれは作れません。ロケットアンカーの鎖も左右ついていてよいですね。いろいろ書きましたが、悩んだ末買ってよかったです。
