                                             REVIEW
One of three variations of the WMS-03 Maganac, the Rashid Custom figure features a design based on the Gundam Sandrock.  This figure features the armor pattern unique to Rashid's Maganac, with excellent sculpting and detail.  Double joints at the elbows allow excellent arm movement, as well as upper arm swivel joints and ball jointed wrists.  Double jointed knees and individually articulated skirt and ankle armor allow for great range of motion for the legs.  Rashid's Maganac also has extra armor on his mobile suits joints, which this figure replicates without any loss of poseability.  The large beam rifle included has great detail, and has been designed with a removeable clip that is held in place by a small latch.  As a bonus, besides the closed hands already on the figure, two extra sets are included, one with extended trigger fingers, the other for holding the heat tomahawk.  As is usual with ver 2.0's, Rashid's Maganac is an outstanding figure.
As the Maganac Corps of the Middle East region waged an underground war of resistance against the encroaching military control of OZ and the United Earth Sphere Alliance, many Maganac Corps members and squad leaders customized their Maganac mobile suits. One such customized model was operated by Rashid Kurama, leader of the Maganac Corps. In addition to a "commander's antenna" on the head and stylized shoulder armor similar to that on the XXXG-01SR Gundam Sandrock, Rasid's Maganac also mounted a pair of head-mounted vulcan guns for close-range combat.
