Review: Gundam Micro Wars Ball & Pilot

This is a different type of Gundam model than the Converge or Gunpla sets.  I initially thought there was some sort of rule set connected to this due to the name.  This is one of the releases from the third wave.


 Box.  I paid $7.99 at Barnes & Noble for this.

Instructions.  Inside the box.



Parts.  



Disassembled.  As you can see, the body has a cockpit for a figure.  The
gun could be Artillery or Spotting.  The arms could be Melee or Defense.





Assembled.


Size Comparison 1.





Disassembled Figures.






Assembled Figures.







Size Comparison 2.  The Mobile Suit Figure looks to be 9P or so.




Size Comparison 3.  Here you can see the figures in the Ball
and the Z'Gok which I reviewed a couple months back.

The Questions:
Is it below, at, or above $10 per Frame?  Below.  (+5)

Is it a good size to use in a game?  Yes.  In between a Chub and a Classic.  (+5)
How many parts does it have to represent systems?  Three.  (0)
Does it have enough parts you can remove to represent White Dice damage?  No.  (-5)
Score: +5 (B+).  It looks neat but doesn't have a lot of Attachments.

Review: Gundam Micro Wars MSM-07S Char's Z'Gok

Box.  I paid $7.99 at Barnes & Noble for this.


Instructions.  Inside the box.




Parts & Stickers.  This stuff comes on sprues!


Disassembled.  As you can see, the torso has a cockpit for a figure. 
Which isn't included.  The eye has a little slider inside the housing
so you can move it.  The claws could be Melee or Spotting.


Assembled.

Does it have enough parts you can remove to represent White Dice damage?  Yes.  (+5)
Score: +15 (A+).  It's a decent start.  I'll have to review more to form a better opinion.
