The third entry in the Frame Arms Girl line is "Materia," a kit in bare-body form with no external armor. Both a normal version and a white version were released with the same configuration but different colors, and this kit is the white version.
As you can see, without any external armor it shows off a slender figure, and it seems to have been designed to serve as a base body for various future Frame Arms Girl lineups. Perhaps because it was built to function as a platform, there are some improvements over previous Frame Arms Girl kits in terms of articulation and structural design. The waist joint in particular has become even more flexible, allowing for a more pronounced S-curve.
Beyond that, the ability to swap between 3 face parts with different eye directions and the inclusion of 10 soft hand parts are the same as previous releases. With no armor or weapons, this kit's appeal lies in exploring all kinds of poses using just the flexible bare body.
Either way, being a bare body without armor does make it feel a little lacking in personality — but with its bright, clean look compared to the normal version, the Materia White Ver. has a charming ball-jointed girlpla doll kind of vibe going for it. :-)
