    Hey everyone, is there suddenly some war for FMP supremacy that we weren't alerted about? Suddenly we're buried under new model kits from the series--but we're not complaining!

    This kit recreates the Arbalest's fourth form from the new Full Metal Panic! animation! Bandai has put all their chips down, bringing all of their gimmicks to the table. Sliding mechanisms in the frame allow for a great range of motion, giving the kit the ability to achieve dynamic poses upon completion. The wide range of motion will let you recreate any scene you like, and the full range of accessories are also included: you get the Boxer shotgun, GRAW-2 molecular cutter, swappable face parts, Lambda Driver parts (to recreate stored and deployed modes), and the AWS 2000, an original weapon for the plastic model kit!

    PRODUCT DETAILS
    1/60 version of the new Arbalest in the slice of life sci-fi military anime "Full Metal Panic! Invisible Victory." Created by Kanetake Ebikawa, the same mechanical designer behind the Gundam Exia, the Arbalest showcases Bandai's model tech applied to non-Gundam robots giving it great range of motion to perform poses as if it were a human. The Arbalest employs military themed armaments such as the "Boxer" 57mm Scattershot rifle, GRAW-2 Monomolecular cutter combat knife that can be mounted on the face, and a new modular customizable weapon platform designed by Ebikawa exclusively for the model kit versino, the Graz Mannlicher AWS2000. Arbalest's AWS unit features a LDW (Light Defense Weapon) load out. Arbalest's special Lambda Driver activation is recreated through the use of part swapping, and can be displayed with the sold separately Figure-Rise Effect Aura (BAN212971). All weapons between the Arm Slaves are compatible with each other. Runner x13, Foil Sticker, Instruction Manual

      Amazing Mecha Kit

      For my first non-Gundam related kit this kit blew me away. It build like a mix of HG quality and RG quality. The HG quality of the kit is that this kit has no inner frame like the RG. While everything else build like a RG, with the many color accurate parts and the size of the parts being small. This kit stands up around the size of a 1/144 HG/RG kit in height. The only thing that I had trouble is getting this kit to stand straight due to be it is back-heavy. Otherwise this kit was a blast to build. Highly recommended to any Mecha fan.

      A good first mech

      This was my first model kit since I stoped playing with little wooden trains (I.e. 6 or 7 yrs old). I loved it, couldn’t wait to dive in, total build time, including me being a caffeinated noob, was about six hours. It took a hit on the rating because “no glue needed”, while it’s a true statement for a dust collector, is a lie ( six drops of glue required) if you want to adjust its position without out it looking like Leonard just got through with it.

      In the end, would buy a dozen if I could get them for for $30 even, with tax

      Will be buying the rest of the 1/60 series

      2 for 2

      This kit is on par with the first one I got from this series, great articulation, good quality plastic, and minimal paint needed to replicate the tv show
