The verdict

This kit rewards anyone who already loves the TR-6 line's weird, blocky Titans aesthetic.

It transforms cleanly between mobile suit and MA mode with part swaps instead of fragile hinges, the shield boosters double as a rifle or a claw, and the shoulder cannon has real range of motion for posing a shot. It is not the most flexible HG on the shelf and it never pretended to be, but as a display piece and a transformation toy it earns its price.

Best for: Advance of Zeta fans and TR-6 collectors who want a transforming HG that prioritizes gimmick and shelf presence over deep articulation

The full review

What it is

This is the blue, pre-Rah Haze'n-thley II, the high-speed space combat form of the TR-6 [Woundwort] built for the Titans Test Team, and it looks the part the moment you have it together. The elongated legs and claw-mode transformation are the whole draw here, and Bandai actually delivered on that promise. Swapping the shield boosters between rifle and claw configuration is satisfying in hand, not just on paper, and folding it down into MA mode takes real part-swaps rather than one gimmick joint that will eventually strip out. I came away impressed that a P-Bandai niche release got this much engineering effort put into it.

The catch

Articulation is the honest weak point. Reviewers who built it note it does not move as much as the silhouette suggests, and the leg extension gimmick that makes the design pop also limits how far you can push a dynamic pose before things look strained. It was a P-Bandai exclusive at 4,840 yen for this blue version (the white Haze'n-thley II-Rah variant ran higher at 6,490 yen), so secondary market pricing is inflated and stock is inconsistent. One build report clocked a careful snap build at multiple sittings rather than an evening project, mostly because of the transformation parts, not because the plastic fights you.

Who it's for

Buy this if you are already invested in the Advance of Zeta side story or you collect TR-6 variants and want the transformation gimmick more than a wide pose range. It is also a fair pickup for anyone who likes MA-mode kits and wants something that transforms with swappable parts instead of a single stress point. Skip it if you want a kit that poses aggressively out of the box, or if paying P-Bandai exclusive prices for a niche side-story suit does not appeal to you. This is a shelf piece and a transformation toy first, an articulation showcase second.

The build story

What the build is actually like, and the engineering worth knowing about.

The transformation parts are the focus of the build, and that shows in assembly time, one build report describes a careful multi-day snap build rather than a quick evening kit, mostly spent getting the MA-mode swaps and claw conversion right rather than fighting tight tolerances or nub placement.

Where the kit earns its keep is engineering: the leg-to-claw transformation and the rifle/claw shield boosters work through genuine part-swap mechanisms rather than one compromise joint, and the shoulder cannon's range of motion lets you actually stage a beam shot instead of leaving it locked at one angle.

Lore & trivia

01The Haze'n-thley II is the high-speed combat form of the Gundam TR-6 [Woundwort], developed under the Titans' Model Integration Plan as a successor to the RX-110 Gabthley meant to counter AEUG suits like the MSZ-010 ZZ Gundam.
02Its legs elongate through a transformation system that lets the entire leg convert into a large claw for MA mode or an intermediate form.
03The suit's name is drawn from Hyzenthlay, a character from Richard Adams' novel Watership Down.
04This blue Haze'n-thley II released as a P-Bandai exclusive in October 2019 for 4,840 yen, ahead of the white Haze'n-thley II-Rah combined-form variant that followed in February 2020 at 6,490 yen.
