MG Gundam Astray Red Frame Kai
The Gundam Astray Red Frame Kai blends the samurai aesthetic of Lowe Guele's model with a massive and versatile Tactical Arms IIL. Once assembled, it stands around 18 cm tall and retains the visible red frame, the agile proportions of the Astray, and two katanas with sheaths: the Gerbera Straight and the Tiger Pierce. The backpack module can switch between flight, sword, bow, work claw, and energy absorption configurations, in addition to using the Beam Torch for ranged attacks. The box includes a stand to support more ambitious poses. This version originated in the photo-novel Mobile Suit Gundam SEED VS Astray, so it does not have a debut anime episode. As a fun fact, Lowe developed the Tactical Arms IIL using the Blue Frame Second Revise's equipment as a reference, but adapted it to his mechanic personality: it's not all about weapons, as it also incorporates a practical work mode. The contrast between the simplicity of the body and the size of the equipment allows it to be displayed as a light duelist or as a machine loaded with functions, two very different styles in the same model.
