Snackgirls react
Kirari: I’d want to photograph King Exkaiser head-on. Those broad shoulders and that red, blue and white silhouette are what draw me in.
Red: I want to run through the Form Up, then try some action-frame poses. I’m curious what needs changing between the two.
King Loader completes the Form Up
Exkaiser transforms from a car into a robot, then combines with King Loader to become King Exkaiser. Bandai describes the design as balancing anime-inspired proportions with transformation, combination and articulation.
The included action frame adds another posing option. According to Bandai, using it increases articulation, giving builders more scope for action poses.
One kit set, stickers and soda-flavored gum
The suggested retail price is ¥8,998 including tax. The set contains the plastic model kit, stickers, instructions and one piece of soda-flavored gum, and is intended for ages 15 and up.
The Japanese release is being sold through candy aisles at mass retailers and similar outlets. Individual stores may begin selling it on different dates, so check the store’s start date if you are planning a visit.
