As you already aware from my previous post, this kit has some pretty interesting innovation around the way its head is constructed. Let us have a closer look at the assembled model (as always, not painted at this stage).
First of all, it should be noted that this Rick Dom is slightly shorter than its “little” brother – Rick Dom II (this fact is compensated by the length of its bazooka
– I simply could not resist commenting on it… again
). Also, its general appearance leaves the impression of a hunched one.
But enough talking, see for yourself (click on the pictures below to see their larger versions):

By the time you read this post, the year 2009 will be truly here
and it looks like it is going to be a difficult one…
I wish my readers all the best in the coming 12 months, I wish them stable and peaceful times ahead – which will give us more time (and money
) for our hobby. I strongly believe that having a hobby helps people to live through difficult times by creating a safe “zone” within one’s mind, letting problems and worries fade away, if only for a little while. And we have a very interesting hobby, believe me
Happy New Year, Everyone!

Giving you the review of the next kit back-to-back with Rick Dom II was an easy decision to make – after all, this one is Dom II’s predecessor that was for some reason released 2 years later.

Now, what is it about MS-09 Dom and MS-09R Rick Dom that’s written on the box? Will you find TWO kits inside? Well, not really – the bulk of 115 plastic parts in the box will build a body that is pretty much the same for both mech. Only 15 out of those are unique for MS-09 Dom and 16 for Rick Dom.
