Bandai 158536 - 1/100 Astray Red Frame Model Kit Detail Build Edition  [B-158536]

Overview of the MG 1/100 Astray Red Frame Assembly

The MG 1/100 Astray Red Frame captures the aesthetic of Gundam SEED Astray while delivering a satisfying construction process. Its detailed frame and panel lines reward careful assembly and finishing work.

Design and Joint Performance

The kit emphasises articulation, with engineered shoulder and hip joints that hold poses reliably. Thoughtful part separation gives depth to the armour and simplifies selective painting for customised colour schemes.

Recommended Gear and Assembly Tips

Suited to builders with some experience, this model benefits from basic modelling tools like nippers, a craft knife, sanding files, and masking tape. Working methodically through the manual prevents small part loss.

Surface Prep and Final Coats

Minor sanding and panel lining enhance the mechanical detail. Apply decals carefully, then seal the model with a clear topcoat to protect markings and even out the finish.

The MG 1/100 Astray Red Frame is a versatile project that balances poseability with surface detail, suited to builders wanting a hands-on finishing experience.
