Present for two winners by lottery! Transforms from a motorcycle to a female robot without replacement! In-depth review of Good Smile Company's first original robot "Cyclion <TYPE Lavender>"! The 7th installment of Yasuyuki's Toys and Games!

In this popular series, voice actor Yasuyuki, who loves robots more than any other voice actor in the industry, plays around with the latest toy toys and hobbies! This time, we introduce Good Smile Company's first original robot toy , "Cyclion <TYPE Lavender> "!

Some of you may not be familiar with this original item yet, but today we will show you the charm of the girl who came to our house to play with.

The 7th Cyclion <TYPE Lavender

First of all, the package. On the front is a cool-looking Cyclion. On the center of the back is a picture of the impactful pose and a brief introduction of the gimmick.

On the top and bottom are pictures of the cycle mode.

On the side, only the clear parts seem to be glowing, and there is a note of caution.

The contents include the main body, weapon kunai, auxiliary base and various wrists, and instruction manual. The instruction manual includes her basic settings, so you can enjoy the various fantasies you may have from there.

The proportions I look for in a woman have been reproduced to perfection. As the name suggests, the coloring is based on lavender. The clear and metallic purple color scheme is lovely.

Her characteristic wheel parts are placed on her back, but the magic is that they are actually almost invisible when viewed from the front.

The chest is made of clear parts, and the word "CYCLION" appears to be on display. If there is a development of collaborative items, it would be good to display the logos of each company here.

Hmmm ....... The best waist nips in. The shoulders and forearms also have lines that remind me of the raised muscles of the human body.

The legs are tight and firm. The placement of the clear parts and the undivided ankle design are also beautiful.

You can enjoy some posing without the included auxiliary stand, but inserting the heels into the auxiliary stand will increase stability. You can also connect "THE Simple Stand" or other stands to the joints on the back to enjoy posing the figure in any way you like.

Next, let's take a look at the range of motion.

The head is smoothly movable with a bow joint connection.

Shoulders and body are connected with axes, and can rotate 360°, and arms can be raised right above the head. Roll axis of 360° above the elbow. Elbow can be bent this far with only one joint.

The wrist is connected to the axis and can be rotated. The wrist can also be snapped.

The base of the legs is so flexible that you would think she is a rhythmic gymnast, and can move back and forth and side to side. The knees can also be bent greatly despite having only one joint.

In addition, there is also a swinging motion that allows the inner thighs to be bent.

The ankle itself is not movable, as it is not split. Instead, the toes can be extended and the heels can be turned.

Let's take a look at some poses using these movable parts and other parts!

The auxiliary base is basically used like this.



For larger poses, we recommend using stands such as "THE Simple Stand".

It is also possible to make them kneel on one knee.

Challenge the limits of auxiliary bases!

Kunai can be connected to joints all over the body. First, upper arm and elbow joints.

Joints for both sides of the back unit and the waist armor.

The kunai can be attached to the

Of course, you can also hold it in your hand by using the wrist (weapon holder).

The kunai gives the impression of being reverse-handled. The coloring and equipment are in line with her development concept of "stealth behavior and search-and-rescue".

She can also be mounted on the elbow for quick combat.

Equipped with a kunai on her heel, she can use a daring kicking technique!

With kunai connected to its upper arms, it sneaks up on its target with the three gyros on its back that generate lift (OLE setting), then slashes at the target like a weasel as it passes by, disappearing into the darkness.

"Masta, where are you looking?"

Mattaku, ningen no otoko iuikimono ha ......

Konomanoidoumokanoudesu. What is it? Kutsuroi de nanteimasenyo.

Apparently, the cyclion that came to our house has a very open personality when not on duty.

He is a very open-minded person outside of his duties. Ppppfft."

......She's a bit cheeky, but she performs a wonderful complete transformation, so let me introduce her to you.

The deformation starts with the kunai connected to the side of the elbow joint!

The cylinder of the back unit is extended and deployed. Actually, this cylinder part is made of stainless steel. It is made of stainless steel and machined.

First, open the chest cowl and lift up the hair part of the head. Then, the head is tilted forward from under the base of the neck, the chest cowl is closed again, and the shaft on the inside of the cowl is inserted into the head support.

Next, open the thigh covers outward to reveal a die-cast frame inside. Continue to open the thigh cover upward and close it again.

Continue to raise both legs up from the base and connect the die-cast parts to the "C" shaped joints on the hips. Fold the thighs and bend the knees while closing them to align the rear wheels, which are divided into left and right.

Finally, deform the arms. Bend the elbows and wrists, tilt the handle of the kunai outward, and position it to complete the deformation. When actually moving it by hand, the deformation is easier than it appears in the instruction manual.

Cycle mode. The coexistence of the speedy design, coloring, and mechanical details is irresistible.

The part shaped like an exhaust is a part that used to be a thigh cover. She may be releasing waste heat, etc. instead of waste gas as her power source.

From the side. At a quick glance, it is hard to believe that this can transform into a humanoid form.

Here, we have Good Smile Company's figma archetype next:[she]fresh color ver. Cyclion is 1,980 mm tall, so this is roughly how it would be in contrast to a human.

I put Figma on the cycle mode and everything is just right!

From the position of the hands to the position of the feet, it fits perfectly, so it might be a good idea to put a 1/12 scale equivalent movable figure such as figma on it.

Then, what if you put Cyclion on it! So we prepared another one (our own).

It's a bit like a pocket bike in size. As a conclusion, it can be put on it!

Speaking of transformable toys, there is an intermediate form! One of the most exciting parts of the project is thinking about the "Ole Transformation.

......What kind of situations will it be useful in? I'm not sure, but I've thought of this intermediate form.

What kind of transformations will other owners make?

I realized after trying to recreate the pose of the photo on the back of the package that the photo was one of the most attractive photos of this mecha.

The internal mechanical details of the chest, the stainless steel parts of the back unit, and the internal frame of the thighs are just a few of the highlights.

Now, let's enjoy a little more interaction with her.

She says, "Are you okay? I don't have a shirt. I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

Ahaan.

"MOONhas got you."

"Eh? Is it cute?

Iyan.

"Ima, hoka no mekamusume no koto wo kangaerimashita ne? Poke-poke.

"Mattakumou. Pumppp.

Oya, mou omezame desuka? Mouskoshi masta no negao omiteitakatta ni.

 Yes, there is nothing wrong.

Finally, since there were clear parts, I was curious to see what would happen if I shined a black light on them, so I actually tried it.

This is an image taken with the room light off and the black light on. The clear parts are reacting!

In cycle mode, as it were, it reminds me of a bike in a certain famous sci-fi movie.

So, what do you think of "Cyclion<TYPE Lavender>"?

It will be interesting to see what kind of personality she has in your home, and I hope to see more variations in the future, such as her sisters, different equipment, and coloring. Personally, I would like to see her wearing polarizing paint.

Now, what's next on the toy list?
