トランザム!!! trans-am!!!
TAMASHII NATION 2011限定のMETAL BUILD ガンダム00トランザムライザーを買いました。ノーマルのを買い逃がしたため、もうえらい値段になってしまうから買いたくても買えない、むしろ限定の方がお得…かな。
TAMASHII NATION 2011’s limited item – METAL BUILD Gundam 00 Trans-am raiser. I haven’t order the normal version (7 swords and 0 raiser), and the price raise up to somehow unreasonable level…orz… The limited edition is hence cheaper than the normal one!!
GN粒子解放で出力、速度、運動性も3倍になったトランザムモード。劇中のイメージの赤く輝いた姿、商品で表現し難しいですね。Robot魂もMGもHGもイメージがかなり違う。今回の限定版は少し特別で、全体的にパールコーティング施された、飾るには美しい仕様になっています。飾るにはいいけど撮影なら何かが足りないかな…と思いながらCGで挑戦してみました。似ているかどうか自分にもわからない…..いかがでしょう?
The trans-am mode, of which releasing compressed GN particles resulting a 3-times power, speed and mobility. In the Animation, Gundam turns shinny-red in color, and such an image is really difficult to be release as figure products. Even Robot Tamashii, HG and MG does not quite appealing. This limited METAL BUILD featured a new method to present trans-am mode – using full pearl coating in paint. Its beautiful piece for display, but its not so camera-friendly…So I try to use CG to present the trans-am mode. Is it okay?

Impressive shots and CG – it’s like a completely different thing to the original~ XD
The normal version now costs more than the limited version?! It’s definitely not common for this to happen; the only other one I recall right on top of my head is GSC’s 1/8 Hatsune Miku CM version in Akihabara, where it is sold at the “normal price” of 4000 Yen whereas the normal version was at 8000 Yen in re-sell shops.
The pearl colour coating does look nice and I can see why you desire this effect the most out of all other versions of Trans-am Raisers out there, though the colours it uses aren’t fully representing the visual appearance in the anime. Nevertheless it’s crazy how you managed to have the colour simulated with filters. In the animation the Trans-am appears to have more spectrum shadings to it, but this seems hard to pull off, but still with the motion blurs and double images are pretty fitting as Trans-am effect!
Thanks Q!!
The normal version Seven Sword is selling around $2200 – 2500HKD, and the O-raiser seems nearly $1000….. a bit crazy….
For trans-am effect, I think the only way to make it closer to animation look would be metallic coating…I was once expecting Bandai to release special edition MG in metallic coating, but it ended up in gloss injection…
