Our verdict

Danboard is the cardboard-box robot from the manga Yotsuba&!, and Kotobukiya's kit stands 125 mm tall. Joints let it sit or run, and swap parts change the eyes and the side switch between on and off. Kotobukiya includes three ten-yen coin pieces that slot into the chest as its power source, parts to recreate Danboard packed in storage, and bonus decals. It also has 3mm ports for Frame Arms and M.S.G parts. Kotobukiya US listed it at $34.99 and rates it 15 and up.

We found no owner reviews on Kotobukiya US or Gundam Planet, so this review rests on the maker's description.

It suits a Yotsuba&! fan or anyone who wants a small, cheerful desk figure. Skip it if you want an action-heavy mecha; Danboard is mostly boxes, with charm over detail.
