Together with the Powered Guardian.

The second kit in the Gigantic Arms line — mechanic accessories for Frame Arms Girl — is the Blitz Gunner. As you can see, it's essentially just the upper body section of the previous Powered Arms released as a standalone product, and the price reflects that too, coming in at ¥2400, exactly half of what the Powered Arms cost.

Since this is a repackaged split from an existing kit, the only thing that's actually new is the molded color. Unlike the sandy desert tan of the Powered Guardian, the armor has been changed to a gray tone. The basic design has a sort of flying bike feel to it, and among the Frame Arms Girl lineup, it seems to pair best with the Materia Normal Version riding on top.

There are also joint parts molded onto the polycap runner, and by using these with the mounting holes located around the unit, you can configure it in all sorts of ways. For example, the manual shows it combining with Zenrai to be used in a concept similar to the Powered Arms — but actually trying it out, the attachment was trickier than expected, so I can't really recommend it. -.-

Anyway, for those collecting Frame Arms Girl, this makes for a fun little accessory kit to mess around with, and the overall fit and hold is decent enough that it's great for snapping things together and playing around with like LEGO. On top of that, for a Kotobukiya kit, the price-to-content ratio is pretty reasonable, so it's something I'd happily recommend to Frame Arms Girl fans without hesitation. :-)
