Comparison with the Stasis released in 2010.

This kit is the Stasis Full Package Ver. released as part of the Armored Core NEXT series. Like other Full Package versions, it's a reissue of the Stasisreleased in 2010, with a bunch of extra weapons thrown in. The weapons come from the limited-edition Stasis Gun Metallic Version and the standard-release Magnus.

First off, the Stasis body and its standard weapons are identical in molded color and configuration to the original release from 14 years ago. It's still a kit that shows off that grotesque style and solid joint strength. From the Stasis Gun Metallic Version, the blade, shotgun, and Booster have been carried over, while from Magnus, the machine gun, handgun, and two back-mounted missiles have been recycled. Thanks to this much beefier weapon loadout, you can pull off all kinds of action poses — though the articulation isn't quite as free as the slim body might suggest, so pulling off a wide variety of poses does take some effort.

So in the end, this is a reissue kit that pads things out by recycling various weapons rather than adding any new tooling. And reflecting the rising cost of, well, everything, the price has jumped significantly from the original ¥5,200 to ¥9,800. That said, personally I think the Stasis is one of the most distinctive-looking kits in the Armored Core lineup. If you've been waiting for a Stasis reissue or just love the design, I'd say grab one while you can. :-)
