The body is sturdy, so it stands upright just fine despite the heavy backpack.

The way it works is you have it grip the dedicated handle first, then lock it inside the Baku Head.

To attach the Flight Unit, you need to slide the existing backpack downward.

This kit is the MG Gundam Astray Red Frame Flight Unit, released as a Club G (Premium Bandai) online exclusive. It combines the MG Gundam Astray Red Frame and the MG Flight Unit expansion set, which were sold separately as Club G kits. On top of that, a Baku Head has been included as a bonus exclusive to this combined kit.

Since the main body and the Flight Pack are completely identical to the originals, this review is really about seeing how well these two kits work together. For a detailed look at each individual kit, please check out the MG Gundam Astray Red Frame review and the MG Gundam Astray Flight Unit expansion set reviewfor reference.

As you'd expect from a dedicated pack, the Flight Pack and the Gundam Astray Red Frame go together really well. The joint parts that lock the bottom of the Flight Pack in place let you set it up stably on an Action Base. The Baku Head, which is exclusive to this combined kit, also shows a solid level of quality.

Anyway, if you already have the MG Gundam Astray Red Frame, you can just pick up the Flight expansion set — and if you don't, this kit has everything you need in one package. The quality is more than good enough, so either way you should be pretty happy with your choice. :-)
