Together with the Frame Arms Girl Durga I.

Together with the Grande Scale Magatsuki.

This kit is the Durga I released as part of the Frame Arms Girl Grande Scale line. Using the Grande Scale Magatsukias the base, the molded colors have been changed, the weapons repositioned, and new sculpts added. It's essentially just scaled up, but follows the same concept as the original Frame Arms Girl Durga I.

So the basic skeleton and features are all identical to the Grande Scale Magatsuki — in terms of the design setting, it feels like only the shoulder, knee, and backpack armor have been swapped out. The overall parts layout also feels like a straight-up enlarged copy of the original Frame Arms Girl kit. That said, true to the Grande Scale name, the presence and heft that come with the size are impressive. Photos don't really do the scale justice, but once you see it in person, I think you'll find it's genuinely bigger than you'd expect. (That's the whole point of Grande Scale!)

Since the base kit — the Grande Scale Magatsuki — had better joint strength than the early Gourai, standing it upright and holding poses is reasonably stable. The armor pieces hanging all over it stay put well enough too, so posing isn't too stressful. That said, the articulation isn't particularly great, so really dynamic poses are a bit of a stretch. And even with a stand, the kit is heavy enough that supporting certain poses isn't easy.

In the end, this is a kit where you need to focus on the "big and pretty" factor rather than action posing. That said, there's a genuine fun in just building a large-scale girl kit. Either way, the base quality is quite solid, so if you've always had a soft spot for Durga or you just love big girl kits, this one is definitely worth a shot. :-)
