Product Description
The AS (Arm Slave) Arbalest piloted by Sousuke Sagara in "Full Metal Panic!" joins the KADOKAWA PLASTIC MODEL SERIES! All of its tactical modes: Normal Mode, ECS Activation Mode, and Lambda Driver Activation Mode, can be fully recreated for the first time in plastic model form!
Under the supervision of mechanical designer Kanetake Ebikawa, realistic mechanical details have been condensed into an approximately 177 mm-tall body. The model consists of parts made with colorful materials and pre-painted parts, enabling the completion of a realistic AS by simply assembling it. The movable mechanisms with wide ranges of articulation enable the recreation of iconic poses, including shooting and slashing poses.
By deploying armor parts and exchanging parts, the ECS (Electronic Conceal System) Activation Mode can be fully recreated. The 42 lenses placed across the body are recreated with pre-painted parts. The Lambda Driver Activation Mode can be faithfully recreated by deploying armor parts and exchanging certain sections with heat-radiation fin parts. The cockpit opening/closing mechanism has been recreated based on the setting materials. The chest block slides forward, allowing the hatch to open and close.
A wide variety of weapon parts are included, such as the "Boxer" 57mm Scattershot and Monomolecular Cutter featured in the series. The Anti-tank Daggers and Hand Grenades can be stored within the chest weapon bays. The Anti-tank Dagger mounted on the head can be recreated by exchanging head parts. Various hand parts are included: clenched fists, open, open (relaxed), Monomolecular Cutter-gripping, general weapon-gripping, and firearm-gripping hand parts.
This special set also includes wire gun firing state recreation parts, silver-plated Monomolecular Cutter blade parts, and black-plated Lambda Driver fin parts for added customization. A special display base designed by Kanetake Ebikawa is included. This is a special edition item with intricate designs on the base itself and even the support pillar, while also including a nameplate to further enhance the display.
