For my first review, I've chosen the Super HCM Pro Gundam.
The figure has some metal parts in the arms, thighs and feet area, as well as the vernier nozzles.
Although the Super HCM Pro line boast its metal content enhancement over the regular HCM Pro line, it is by means comparable to the Chogokin or Metal Composite product lines.
Having said that, the details are sharp and refinded, and the figure is very well-balanced. In the first two images, the Gundam is actually tip-toeing without any additional support.
The set came with a good assortment of accessories, including a hanger (minor assembly required), two hammers with metal chains, beam rifle, lightsabers, shield, fully transformable core fighter, two rocket launchers, etc.
As shown in the following images, the figure is highly posable, including the sliding joint used in the upper thigh that was pioneered in the MG model. This enables the figure to recreate any of the memorable pose from the anime.
To get a sense of how big it is, here is how it compares to a 1/144 GFF RX-78-02 Comic con version, and a Robot Damashii Seravee Gundam.
The figure also includes a full panel open mode (you can open maintenance panels to reveal the internal mechanics) which is reminiscient of a custom built model shown in one of the Hobby Japan issues from the 80's...Now you can recreate your own wardrobe malfunction gundam.
