Gunpla, Gunpla Everywhere
Being led Astray
So I’ve been trying to work on my Gunpla backlog, and I figured I’d go for a pair of Astray Frames, in this case the Blue Frame Second L, and the Gold Frame Amensu Mina. I was a tad apprehensive, especially about the Gold Frame, as I’d heard some horror stories but both were fun builds that left me with a nicely weighty pair of suits for their scale, even if they are somewhat ridiculous (seriously – the Blue Frame’s massive sword? Does triple duty as a fixed minigun emplacement and as the suits flight pack. It’s only other armament is a pair of daggers like those off the Strike, not even a shield. The Gold Frame meanwhile? Oh it just salvages the harpoon launcher arm off of the Blitz Gundam that was cut off it in the anime just prior to it’s destruction, along with a Wolverine-style claw on the other arm, a pair of what can only be described as rapiers, and hooked wings with in-built dart launchers. It does have a very nice gloss finish to the black plastic though…)
