Transforming Robot Jet Toy

Writing by Evan Ackerman on Wednesday, 18 of March , 2009 at 2:18 am

I don’t generally get too worked up about transforming robot toys, if for no other reason than there are tons of mediocre ones that just go from looking like a messed up vehicle to looking like a messed up robot. But this one caught my eye. It takes a full four minutes to transform it from an impressive model airplane to an equally impressive bot, and there are little details everywhere. It’s not even so much the fact that it looks as good as it does, but what really boggles my mind is how complicated it must be to design something like this.

The Macross VF-25F comes as a snap-together kit with decals, and you can find it for around $60 from Toystop, among other places.

Are you into collecting Gundam and Zoids? They have great figures too but not all of their figures transform, just for the sake of display. Nice find for 60 bucks.
