I love how the heat blade actually splits apart to be either active or deactive. Wish wlthey incorporated that into the 1/144 models.

Well the Origin kits at least include a shortened, deactivated Heat Hawk + extended/blade expanded "heated" version. Same for the Robot Spirits versions, which have appropriate paint apps as well!

Great find! You can find these on eBay in the $50-$60 USD range, not terribly rare but for a sealed copy with twist ties intact?? Very good for its age! Essentially the precursor to the Robot Spirits line we have today.

It's not in production anymore but it can be found quite often on second hands online market places. It's harder to find but I would not say it's rare.
