1/6 Super Armored Fighting Suit S.A.F.S. Snowman from Kow Yokoyama x Medicom Toy
This had me excited just a bit, looking at it, and imagining how awesomeliciously-cool it would be to have an entire squad of these Maschinen Krieger S.A.F.S.s at a go! But alas, the US$1,500 price-point slams me down hard. Ah yes, pulverized-dreams can be so harsh, indeed …
The 1/6 Scale Super Armored Fighting Suit S.A.F.S. Snowman is produced by Medicom Toy, and is the second mecha to be produced and release based on the designs of famed Japanese artist and sculptor; Kow Yokoyama.
Standing 40cm (15 3/4 inches) tall - the mecha build is made of ABS plastic, metal, and PVC vinyl, while the articulated female pilot dons fabric tailored clothes. The product listing on BigBadToStore also mentions that the nose cone of the "Snowman" is attached via a strong magnet, so fear naught the "foolishness" of the design to those unfamiliar with Kow's storyline for this unit.
As well listed is that the tip of the 47mm Prg.56 Laser Cannon acts as a 'switch', lighting up the model when turned. And you wondered where the price-point came from, eh? *Sigh* - Check out THIS FB-album for even more images, and dream along an unrequited dream with me, of owning this bad-boy-toy!
