Metroid Gunship

gunship3 First 4 Figures is proud to present a new collection of models based on the different gunships in the Metroid universe. The first ship in the line up is Samus Aran’s gunship based on the version seen in Metroid Prime 2: Echoes.

The model has been painstakingly recreated from original game files to bring about the most accurate representation of Samus Aran’s gunship from Metroid Prime 2: Echoes.

There are over 50 LED lights throughout the model. On the actual gunship, the windscreen and the four engines at the back all light up. When you turn off the lights, the LEDs very slowly turn off with a fading light effect. On the base, there are LEDs that create a circle light movement.

The point where the ship connects to the base has a swivel joint which lets you tilt and angle the ship to any angle that you want. Comes with a screwdriver to secure desired position.

This is an official licensed Nintendo product. Edition is only limited to 750 pieces. Comes with a hand-numbered base and a certificate of authenticity. Scheduled to be released on June 2008.
