Kit Features & Gimmicks
Articulation
- Shoulder joints can swing forwards/backwards.
- The vernier and armor panel on the shoulders can be moved up/down.
- Single joint on the elbows allows up to a 90-degree bend.
- Knees are double-jointed but the bulky lower legs allow about 90-degree bend
- Upper torso joint allows extension for more movement.
- Front waist armor can move independently from each other as they are molded separately on the runner.
- Sub-arms can be accessed underneath the front waist armor and swing out on a single hinge.
- Back waist armor can swing slightly.
- Hoses on the feet adjust accordingly with the movement of the feet.
Weapons & Other Gimmicks
- Beam Rifle can be held in either hand.
- The-O can wield all Beam Swords at once: one in each hand, one in each sub-arm.
Tips & Tricks
- For better results, some of most of the details are needed to be applied/panel-lined with Gundam Markers/Mr. Color Paints.
- As The-O is relatively big for a 1/144 scale model, if the builder wants to display it in aerial poses, it is more ideal to use action bases designed for 1/100 kits (e.g. Action Base 1, Action Base 4) for stability.
- Due to the claws on the sub-arms being fixed, The-O's Beam Rifle can't be held with them without mods. However, the builder can put in weapons that have a uniform width handle from other kits.
Variants
Reissues of the kit from September 2018 onward will feature a blue-colored Bandai Spirits logo. Later reprints from mid-2022 will also feature an additional Bandai Namco logo.
