This kit is the Type Devil Strarf bis, released as a collaboration between Busou Shinki and Megami Device. It's based on the previously released Devil Strarfwith a variety of newly sculpted parts added — the head, shoulders, and foot armor have been changed, and new weapons have been included.
Starting with the head, an eye mask and new ear decorations have been added. The twin-tail head that was added in the Type Devil Strarf Repaint Color versionis also included here. The robot arm shoulder armor and feet now feature larger, more imposing armor pieces, and a big new hammer has been added as well. The hammer handle comes in two thickness options to suit either the human hand or the robot hand, and the robot-use handle even has a locking pin gimmick for a solid, secure grip.
New spike armor for head decoration has also been added as a new sculpt. Since all the parts and accessories from the original Devil Strarf are included as well, the overall option count is incredibly generous. Beyond that, the kit's core characteristics are the same as the original — it still delivers excellent articulation and joint strength. A stand is essentially required given the kit's structure, but you don't need to worry much about keeping it upright or holding poses.
With all these new options added, this kit has come out with an even more substantial volume of content — but the price has grown just as generously, going from ¥9,800 to ¥12,000, which does make the barrier to entry feel a bit higher psychologically. That said, the kit itself is solid in terms of quality and content, so if you're a Busou Shinki fan or the style speaks to you, it's definitely worth taking the plunge. :-)
