It is developed by Japan's BANDAI SPIRITS company Hobby Business The robot assembly model "HG (High Grade)" series launched by the department has also announced that the latest product " Gilbo " of "SYNDUALITY" is expected to be released in August 2023.
The robot that appears in the play is a bipedal robot called " CRADLE COFFIN ", also known as "pan-weather cruising bipedal". In order to cope with the unavoidable battle and harsh environment when recovering AO crystals, it is equipped with various equipment. In addition to the driver himself, the fuselage also has a space called a coffin on the back, which is used to carry the driver's partner "MAGUS". The so-called MAGUS is a bionic human equipped with a human pair of thinking AI, which can bring excellent assistance for exploration and combat.
In the play , this " Gilbo " is a body that is ridden by a mysterious man named Black Mask , and it was designed by the well-known mechanical designer Ippei Katabe just like the main character, Daigiog . The model kit also reproduces unique body proportions and colors composed of black and white through precise part-color separation technology. The limbs are equipped with multiple movable shafts for flexible play, and the propulsion nozzles of the legs also have movable mechanisms individually, and the deformed floating form can be reproduced by replacing some parts.
Both the cockpit and the coffin on the back have expansion mechanisms, which can hold mini-dolls of Black Mask and his MAGUS partner Shuna. The armed part includes a hand-held rifle, a missile launcher with a door opening mechanism on the back, and the large armed "energy impact blade" mounted on the left arm can also be reproduced by deploying and attaching blade special effects parts. In addition, a special pedestal and stickers are also included in the product, which can reproduce the distinctive red mark on the fuselage.
