Saw this picture at Akiba Hobby blog taken during the 49th All Japan Plastic Model Show. For a while there I thought that this was a 1/60 HWR-00 Monster Mk II alongside some 1/60 scale Tomahawks from Yamato Toys. Turns out however that its from Wave Corporation and its in 1/100 scale while the Tomahawks are in 1/72 scale.
Wouldn’t that be great if Yamato made a 1/60 rendition of the Mk II Monster? Must cost an arm and a leg however if ever that came to life. Both the Tomahawk and Monster look huge against the 1/100 VF-1 Valkyries from Wave in the foreground shot. So it was the different depth from the picture’s vantage point that’s causing it to look much larger.
Hi, When will the Mk II Monster be released and who will stock it here in the states?
Thanks, Alan
According to the literature at the Hobby Wave site, its expected to be released by 2010, but no definite date yet.
As for stocking in the US, I don’t have data on that since I usually purchase from online sellers in Japan.
