Comparison with the HG's Gáe Bolg.

This kit is the RG Gundam Astray Goldframe, released as a Club G (Premium Bandai) online exclusive. It's based on the standard retail RG Gundam Astray Red Frame with a changed molded color and newly added tooling. The new weapon added is the 350mm Rail Bazooka "Gáe Bolg."

The main body shares the same structure as the Red/Blue Frame with only the frame color changed, and the Gáe Bolg comes out looking clean and sharp with RG-level detail. The handle is articulated, which makes it easier to position during posing. As a bonus, parts are included to recreate the arm-severed scene, and a newly tooled Rondo Ghina Sahaku figure is also bundled in.

Following the Red and Blue Frames, this kit is significant for bringing the Goldframe into the RG lineup as well — for this review, just paying close attention to the color changes and the new weapon should be plenty. Either way, if you're a fan of the Astray series, you can now collect all three — Red, Blue, and Gold — as RGs. :-)
