Koto 1/72 Hannibal in the House.

Today the "JGSDF Type97 Improved Labor Hannibal" kit arrived at the doorstep.

This kit represents the Military version(will do the UN version later on).

The it is made by Kotobukiya and is in 1/72 Scale, the mecha design comes from "Patlabor 2 the Movie" and is used by both the Military and the UN in the Movie

Currently snapping the kit to check for painting steps and possible areas where I want to add or replace details, as well as for posing when it goes onto the base.. Colour scheme for this kit is very simple(green) and thus I will combine the painting with the kits for the Macross GB.

Kit itself is standard Kotobukiya quality i.e. good fit, lots of small details as parts, etc. Will have Pics later on of the different sub-assemblies.

Here are some Teaser-pics from the Net.

1.) Miltiary Version:

2.) UN Version:

Should have pics tomorrow. Today is a day to snap plastic.
