Bandai Metal Build Dragon Scale Code Geass Marishiten [Pure Elements Guren]

The metallic paint on the Dragon Scale frame catches light beautifully, and the weight of the die-cast parts makes it feel genuinely premium in hand. Mine arrived with every joint tight and perfectly aligned, which is exactly what I hoped for at this price point.

The articulation on the Dragon Scale frame is ridiculously smooth for something this heavy, and the metallic paint on the Guren’s arm really pops under direct light. It’s a solid display piece that feels like it could survive a drop, which is more than I can say for some of my pricier imports.

The die-cast frame gives it a hefty, premium feel that really sells the “Metal Build” line, and the articulation on the arms is insane for posing. Took about an hour to snap together, and the final silhouette looks exactly like the show’s mech, especially with the glowing effect parts.
