OZ-00MS2 Tallgeese II

Avg. Price: $5.76         Version: 1.0
As the military and political conflicts plaguing the Earth Sphere in AC 195 were coming to an end, Treize Khushrenada, leader of OZ and the World Nation, decided to lead his soldiers personally into the final battle. Using spare parts left over from the OZ-00MS Tallgeese's development, Treize built the OZ-00MS2 Tallgeese II. Treize's mobile suit was technically identical to the original OZ-00MS Tallgeese used by former OZ pilot Zechs Merquise, with the only differences between the two mobile suits purely cosmetic: a blue-on-white paint scheme, and a Gundam-style face and "plume" on the head.

                                             REVIEW
The Tallgeese II, like the Tallgeese that it is nearly identical to, is an impressive figure.  Designed with ver 1.0 articulation, it still has better poseability than most of the Gundam Wing line.  It also features better accessories, with a large "dober" gun that attaches to the right shoulder, a shield that attaches to the left shoulder, and two beam sabers with detachable blades.  The beam sabers can also store on the backside of the shield.  The Tallgeese II has two large vernier pods on its back that feature flip open sides, with thruster details inside and small winglets that swing upwards.  And unlike the Leo mobile suit that it shares a basic design with, the Tallgeese II figure's head has a good degree of free range of motion.  Note that there are two versions of this figure available, one with yellow paint, and one with gold.  With its Roman legionnaire design influences,great detail, and accessories that can all be used at once, the Tallgeese II is a must have figure for any fan of Gundam Wing.  An excellent figure.
