Kotobukiya Frame Arms Girl

Shiki Rokkaku

Kit Review

Straight build

This kit is Shiki Rokkaku, released as a collaboration between Frame Arms Girl and Assault Lily. Assault Lily is a hybrid content line of 1/12 action dolls and figures created by Azone International and acus. Built around the concept of battle girls wielding weapons called CHARMs, the line has now been turned into a plastic model kit in the Frame Arms Girl format by Kotobukiya.

In terms of construction, it's a typical girlpla similar in style to the existing Frame Arms Girl Stylet. This time around there's no separate body mode — it's a clean, straightforward build of just the main figure. Overall articulation isn't much different from existing Frame Arms Girls, but the joint strength is nice and solid, making it easy to pose comfortably. The CHARM, the signature weapon of the Assault Lily series, can be assembled into four different configurations through parts combination — T-type blade, R-type normal mode, Buster Launcher mode, and more — and the grip in the hands is solid enough to pull off stable action poses.

One thing to note — the eye design has a slightly more cartoonish feel to it, so existing Frame Arms Girl fans might find it a little off-putting. That said, the overall quality is quite solid, so if you're a fan of the Assault Lily series or just dig the style, this is definitely a girlpla worth recommending. :-)
