Review- HG AGE Danazine

02/07/2012 by bd77

Action Poses

Enter a dragon.

Just when you think its safe to come out, a dragon drops by.

He stalks.

Looking for prey.

He runs.

While it looks lumbering, don’t be fooled, the Danazine is very agile.

Stalking from the skies.

Just like your typical dragon.

Shooting at a wide degree arc.

Compare to earlier Vagan MS, this has one less range weapon. But the beam cannon on the lower waist has increased in output.

Dashes out .

The larger area of the wings provided more control surfaces in aerial combat.

Tail impaling action.

Getting impaled is one of the worse things in life.

A Dragon MS? Quick, tell the Federation to build a Nordic Warrior MS!

Alternatively, time for some Gundam Hunter.

  I wonder did the Vagans were high on glue when they designed this…

    Unfortunately, the beam sabers for the Ankusha/Anksha is on the knee cap armour. XD

Lol for the last slide haha! =3 Danazine looks cool for its model kit version, A dragon-like or lizard-like MS is actually a nice idea yes? He looks strong but agile at the same time. Nice build btw! =3

  Yes, that infamous meme. =)
  Well, at least this is miles than… the hugging-space-koala one… >.>
  
  Thanks.

I always imagined that Danazine moves in manners like the giant monsters in Godzilla movies XD.

  When walking slowly yes, if not, they just fly. =)

  Oh U~

Now this one actually looks like the space metal dragon that was promised before. Still kinda silly and a bit too samey for me, but I thing of that with the Vegan designs.
- on 03/07/2012 at 6:34 am bd77
  
  Yes, more dragon-ish than the Gafran. Guessed the Vagans like to keep a common “theme” to their MS…

Haha why is the Danazine cussing
- on 03/07/2012 at 12:26 pm bd77
  
  Well… he’s NOT a horse or something. XD

Think MG kits make your wallet cry, try this on for size.

Come to think of it, I havent seen any “riding that Danazine” scene yet @_@
- on 04/07/2012 at 9:03 am bd77
  
  LoL. There’s none. XD

After a long time of Akismet accidently blocking me from commenting (and that I couldn’t find a way to contact you about it), I can finally comment here!

The Danazine feels like it’s something not from a Gundam series, but nonetheless a dragon shape MS is rather radical and interesting. I at first thought they would impose a size a bit bigger than ordinary MS like Baqto does, but ends up a tad smaller instead. Also looks ideal for a tokusatsu scenario like those for Godzilla. Gotta say I’m tempted to get it!
- on 04/07/2012 at 9:18 am bd77
  
  No wonder… D=
  
  The Danazine’s design really hits my wallet as yes, it’s very unique. While not as large as the Baqto but it’s more “flexible” as it can be used as… Godzilla-like character. XD
  
  Getting it? Please do. =D

When there’s a dragon there’s always a dragon slayer, go for it Age! ! XD

Ahaha lots of decent color seperation for the parts and can see how agile it is from all the joints. Love the tail especially, very funky~
- on 09/07/2012 at 9:26 am bd77
  
  Yes, the tail is worth more that the actual kit. XD

Is that last photo a homage to the Imperial Guard Commissar from Dawn of War II: Retribution?

Particularly THIS bit? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-hB19tHMS94
- on 09/07/2012 at 10:37 pm bd77
  
  Wait, WHAT?!
  I didn’t know that! D=
  
  (also, never played Dawn of War II before)

    Dunno where the boffins at THQ got the reference for that bit, but there ye go… XD

  … which was in ALL actuality is based on THIS: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/247623/drive-me-closer.jpg

    BINGO~! You got that one. =D

So I guess this is from the Gundam AGE series…. is this the bad guy? I kind of like it….
- on 11/07/2012 at 7:22 pm bd77
  
  Yes, this from the 3rd generation of AGE and yes, it’s a baddie. =)

Can you tell us your opinion about this model, do you like it or not?
Is it too un-mainstream looking?
- on 13/07/2012 at 3:00 pm bd77
  
  Do I like like it? Seriously, it’s not like they’d be making mechanized monster-form MS everyday. =D
  Of course I do. And with other Vagan units, think of all the kit-bashing possibilities. +_+
- on 16/07/2012 at 8:26 pm Nightslash3535
  
  Gundam designs too mainstream?
  Give it a beastly motif and an alien background and watch as “fans” whine over it’s “weird” design.
  *Spoiler* Ezelcant pilots a Gundam and it will come in HG form this October.
  - on 20/07/2012 at 9:11 am bd77
    
    Gundam-type MS I’m okay with (it IS, a tradition), it’s the normal MS…
