Wave Opens Preorders on 1/35 Votoms Fatty ST Version and Berserga DT Reissue
The Berserga DT reissue arrives nine years after the [PS Version] last shipped, so a kit that had gone quiet is back in the same preorder window as a new Balarant design.
Reporting from 1 source: Dengeki Hobby Web.
Wave is taking preorders on Rakuten Books for two 1/35 Armored Trooper Votoms kits. The Fatty [ST Version], the Balarant Army machine built to counter Gilgamesh ATs, is a snap-fit, fully articulated model with polycaps at each joint, roughly 12cm tall, at a suggested 5,280 yen. The Berserga DT [PS Version] is being reissued, with a cockpit that holds a Fiana figure and a leg-stored descent gimmick requiring no parts swapping, at 6,380 yen.
The two kits sit at opposite ends of the same line. The Fatty carries the Balarant silhouette, deliberately unlike the Gilgamesh Dog series, and keeps the line's snap-fit, glue-free construction with polycaps throughout. The Berserga DT [PS Version] goes the other way: the cockpit is reproduced as described in the story and sized to hold a Fiana figure, and the descent mechanism is built into the legs so the gimmick works without swapping parts. Both are 1/35 and about 12cm tall. Rakuten Books lists them below the suggested retail price.
- 1/35 Armored Trooper Votoms Fatty [ST Version] [BK-241] (Plastic Model): Wave, snap-fit and fully articulated with polycaps, about 12cm, 5,280 yen suggested
