    Robot Damashii Lancelot

    I once owned the 1/35 Lancelot model kit from Bandai, but have since sold it, therefore being deprived of everyone’s favorite titular Knightmare Frame from Code Geass. The Robot Damashii release brought a fresh update to the mech design, and wasn’t short on included figure features and accessories. My one gripe with these Robot Spirits figures is how overpriced they…

Given that Figma Lelouch is long out of production, this little palm-sized figurine is the last of its kind still available on the market. I’ve been eyeing this figure for quite some time, since I…
