The Gundam Astray Red Frame is one of five Gundam Astray units assembled in secret by the Orb Union. In their original configuration, the Gundam Astrays were identical, distinguished only by the color of their internal frame (as the name would suggest). Orb engineers utilized data stolen from the Earth Alliance’s G Project, effectively copying their beam technology but unable to recreate the G-Project Gundam’s Phase Shift Armor. Instead, The Gundam Astray Red Frame and its sisters utilize much lighter and less restrictive armor, significantly increasing in maneuverability and handling compared to the Earth Alliance Units. After a series of events, the Red Frame fell into the hands of Junk Guild member Lowe Guele, who would soon become the Mobile Suit’s pilot.
Included alongside the PG Gundam Astray Red Frame for accessories:
- Type 71 Beam Rifle
- Shield
- Gerbera Straight
- Beam Saber x2
- 1/60 Lowe Guele Figure
Articulation –
The PG Gundam Astray Red Frame borrows several components from the previously released PG Gundam GAT-X105 Strike Gundam, showcasing the in-universe lineage that connects these two Mobile Suits. This model features double-jointed limbs and swiveling thighs, providing a wide range of motion to create dynamic poses. The PG Gundam Astray Red Frame also features a cockpit hatch that reveals the 1/60 Lowe Guele figure seated within! This model also features LED components inside the Mobile Suit’s head for an easy lighting solution. Bandai provided thorough sheets of marking stickers and dry-transfer decals for a supreme finish right out of the box!
Weapons and Other Notable Attributes –
The PG Gundam Astray Red Frame’s Type 71 Beam Rifle features an articulated forward grip for added security when firing. Builders can attach the Type 71 Beam Rifle to the PG Gundam Astray Red Frame’s back skirt armor when not equipped. The Gerbera Straight katana included with the PG Gundam Astray Red Frame features a chrome-finished blade for a shelf-worthy appearance without any paint! This weapon fits snugly inside the sheath attached to the PG Gundam Astray Red Frame’s side skirt.
