HGBD:R Aun[Rize] Armor - Together with HGBD:R Gundam Animalize.

Together with HGBD:R Gundam Animalize.

This is the HG Aun[Rize] Armor released as part of the Build Divers Re:Rise series. It's small and affordable, much like a Builders Parts kit, but it's put together as a standalone unit in its own right. It has a unique yet simple look with a minimal joint structure.

It can pull off action poses on its own to some extent, but only the knees actually bend — the rest of the limbs just rotate — so posing options are pretty limited. The claws at the fingertips are articulated, which is a nice touch. The foot design also makes it tricky to stand upright on its own, so a simple black display stand is included. That said, the stand is on the short side, which causes the feet to interfere with the base, so you'll need to spread the legs out as wide as possible to get it to look right.

At its core, this is a support mech designed to combine with the Core Gundam Rize from the simultaneously released HG Gundam Animalize. By detaching the limbs, you can combine it into one of two forms: Gundam Aun[Rize] Power or Gundam Aun[Rize] Speed. All in all, it's a solid little accessory kit — and it's definitely even better when built alongside the HG Gundam Animalize. :-)
