Conclusion
As 1 of the only 2 (so far) LBX with a weapon mode, Ikaros Force gain not just the play-ability in its Weapon Form, but in its articulation as well. The improvements are mostly on the legs, with full bend on double knee joints and addition thigh swivel and tilt due to the ball poly-cap below the hip joints. Beside that, the wrist joint range of motion also increased, and the additional hands allows for more dynamic pose when wielding its twin swords.
Overall Ikaros Force has enough colour when built straight out of the box, with the majority of the missing colour covered with stickers. However there are also enough tiny detail that makes it preferable to go around with a few different Gundam markers. But beside that, Ikaros Force is a fine kit for beginners and
experts alike.
