The Griffon’s distinctive frame and flight unit have been carefully recreated, with special attention paid to the massive wings that define its aerial combat role.
Thanks to full articulation throughout the joints, you can pose the model in dramatic airborne stances, battle-ready land poses, or iconic moments straight from the anime. Interchangeable hand parts are included as well, most notably allowing fans to recreate the Griffon’s memorable thumbs-up gesture from the series.
Few Labors in Mobile Police Patlabor are as instantly recognizable - or as intimidating - as the Type-J9 Griffon, and this Moderoid 1/60 scale plastic model kit from Good Smile Company does justice to its legendary status.
Portrayed in the series as the mysterious black Labor that consistently outclasses standard units, the Griffon’s sleek and aggressive design is beautifully captured in this highly poseable model kit.
One of the highlights of this kit is its versatility. In addition to the flight unit, the model also includes the Aqua Unit, letting builders recreate two different operational configurations of the Griffon as seen on screen. The kit uses a smart combination of color-separated runners, clear parts, and select pre-painted components, making it possible to achieve an anime-accurate appearance with minimal painting required.
