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.","whyItMatters":"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.","webCardHtml":"\u003cp\u003eThe 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\u0026#39;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.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e1/35 Armored Trooper Votoms Fatty [ST Version] [BK-241] (Plastic Model)\u003c/strong\u003e: Wave, snap-fit and fully articulated with polycaps, about 12cm, 5,280 yen suggested\u003c/li\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e1/35 Armored Trooper Votoms Berserga DT [PS Version] [BK-254] (Plastic Model)\u003c/strong\u003e: Wave reissue, cockpit holds a Fiana figure, leg-stored descent gimmick, 6,380 yen suggested\u003c/li\u003e\u003c/ul\u003e","blueskyPost":"Wave prices the 1/35 Berserga DT reissue at 6,380 yen, above the new Fatty ST Version at 5,280 yen.
