Xabungle is from the anime Combat Mecha Xabungle. I never watch this anime before so I can't give any details bout the story. This is the story overview I copied from wiki
Planet Zora is inhabited by a number of different sentient races. The "Innocents", with their highly developed science and technology; and the resilient and adaptable "Civilians" who rely on the Innocents for foodstuff and various means of production.
Prominent among the abovementioned means of production are Walker Machines; ubiquitous vehicles with vaguely humanoid silhouettes, which Civilians use for such various purposes as mining, transport of persons and goods, construction, and combat.
While many, if not all Walker Machines are armed to a degree, purely combat-oriented Walker Machines are a rarity, and it was one such rare variety of Walker Machine that a young Civilian named Jiron Amos decides to liberate for his own use.
Using the stolen combat machine, revealed to be a Xabungle type Walker Machine, Jiron soon gets himself and his allies into (and out of) all sorts of trouble, which make for an entertaining romp across the desolate planet Zora, where things are not as simple and innocent as they first appear to be.
I've a plastic Xabungle toy when I was small but like other kids - the toy didn't last long until now. I remembered I play a lot with it because it can be transform to vehicle mode and flight mode. I saw the SOC ver. of Xabungle (GX-28) in a toy shop after I started to collect toys 2 years ago, but the price is not cheap and the Xabungle is quite small. I wasn't willing to fork out RM 200+ for a small toy like that since I just started to collect toys by that time.
Last week when I went to a warehouse sales, I saw this In Action!! Offshoot ver. Xabungle with a cheap price tag. So I didn't think much and then grab it although it can't transform

Articulation
I never play any Offshoot series before but I've heard this line of toys articulation is good. Luckily the articulation really as mentioned and I'm satisfy with it although the leg can't lift up more than 90 degrees. Arm can bent 180 degrees thanks to the double joint and the shoulder's jointThe knee didn't use the double joint system and thus can only bent for roughly 160 degrees
Because of the protection skirt at the waist there, lower body can't really pose much
The joints quite strong and can do a sidekick like this, but I'm not sure the joints will become loose or not after played some times.
Size Comparison
The size is a bit small (roughly 13-14cm tall only) for a 2,000 yen item. I think I won't get it also if not because of the sales priceCrossover with Yotsuba
