Bandai 158536 - 1/100 Astray Red Frame Model Kit Master Grade Display Build  [B-158536]

MG 1/100 Astray Red Frame Build Overview

The MG 1/100 Astray Red Frame is a standout from the Gundam SEED Astray lineup, combining a striking look with practical engineering. This kit appeals to builders who value clean part separation and poseability when preparing a display model.

Movement and Construction

Designed for a wide range of dynamic poses, the Astray Red Frame features joints that allow smooth rotation and stable stances. Good part separation helps the model read well at a distance and makes masking and painting individual panels easier.

Skill Level and Recommended Tools

Classified as a moderate build, this kit suits hobbyists with some prior assembly experience. Keep side cutters, a hobby knife, sanding sticks, and tweezers on hand to produce neat joints and remove runners cleanly.

Painting, Panel Lining, and Final Touches

Light sanding, panel lining, and careful decal placement will bring out the mechanical detail of the inner frame. Finish with a topcoat to protect decals and even out the sheen for display.

With its balance of articulation and detail, the MG 1/100 Astray Red Frame makes a rewarding project for those who want a display-ready model without extreme complexity.
