Indeed. :-) What scale is that Zaku II?
Also, could you give more data on that "case"?

It's a Gundam RX-78-2 bust case to keep the MFS (Mini Figure Selection). The head raises and the chest opens to reveal the MFS. It's really cool looking. Next time I'll post more pictures of the case for Robot Japan Forum members.

That's a great case!! I've priced them. About $80 plus $80 shipping (to US) due to the size! OUCH...

So what are the approximate dimensions of this case? What material is it made from? Thanks.

Very nice! I wouldn't even use it as a case but just as a nice bust. Also I wonder if the eyes light up or if you can customize it so it does.

I just bought one of these things while visiting Vancouver. I saw three stores that had them : a gasha shop at Admirality Center for $180 CDN, at Beanz in Aberdeen Mall for $180, and then a candy shop in Yaohan for $180. I asked the owner of the candy shop in Yaohan if he'd swing a deal and he wound up giving me a nice discount and I walked away with it for $149 CDN. He also sold me a set of the mini-figs for around $45 CDN, 10 to a case. Nice! Apparently, this case was originally a contest prize in Japan but the demand was so high that they wide-released it. Here are some pics: To answer some questions, the case doesn't have light up eyes but you may be able to rig it up. The head, the shoulders and the V crest on the head were all separate pieces. They give you two of the crest just in case you lose/break one. The material is hard, matte and glossy plastic, akin to any hi-quality toy. The paint job and moulding is superb. You can figure out the scale from the cigarette box in the pic. Lastly, the case holds 16 figures. I'm not usually a huge gundam fan but once I saw this bust, I knew it'd be really nice on display. It has quite the presence on a shelf and even my wife made a comment as to how nice it looked. Definitely recommended, esp. for Gundam fans. j*ryu

What a nice case!, Do you have MFS Wing Zero Custom? Which version do you have? Normal or Pearl version?

I don't have any other MFS's yet, just the one in the case. I figure I'll take my time and collect them slowly. I bought a box of 10 but none of them were pearl versions... j*ryu
