SD Seed Astray #299 MBF-P01 Gundam Astray Gold Frame

The Gundam Astray Gold 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 Gold Frame and its sisters utilize much lighter and less restrictive armor, significantly increasing maneuverability and handling compared to the Earth Alliance Units. Orb officials ordered the destruction of the Gundam Astray Gold Frame during the Battle of Heliopolis to keep the project secret, but, unbeknownst to them, Rondo gina Sahaku, a member of one of Orb’s five noble families, commandeered the Mobile Suit during the attack in an attempt to escape and save what remained of the Astray Series.

Included alongside the SD Gundam Astray Gold Frame for accessories:

• Type 71 Beam Rifle
• Beam Saber (Unpainted)
• Shield

Articulation –

The SD Gundam Astray Gold Frame is identical to the previously released SD BB Senshi #248 Gundam Astray, aside from the brilliant, gold-plated frame parts that provide a supreme finish without paint! The SD BB Senshi is the longest-running Gunpla line in history, beginning in 1987 and still receiving new entries almost 40 years later! Each model in this line features a simple construction with basic articulation to create different poses. The SD Gundam Astray Gold Frame features a removable backpack and a pair of Beam Saber hilts attached to its back. The SD Gundam Astray Gold Frame also includes a Shield that will connect to either forearm. Bandai provided a sheet of color-correcting stickers to help builders recreate the Mobile Suit’s on-screen appearance right out of the box!
