Box Open
Shiny silver, premium box art.
The size is comparable to the large boxes of ¥4000–6000 Gunpla kits.
This kit was bundled with a phone called the 945SHG,
and as you can see, the design has a very Federation-military feel to it. ^^
The inside of the box is divided into 3 sections.
The spot where the phone used to be...
I got the version that only includes the plastic model without the phone, so there's no phone here. ^_^)r
The section containing the runners
The section containing the metal frame
Aside from the runners section, the bottom is empty.
In the original, it probably held the phone's battery and accessories.
Premium metal frame packaging
The thickness is about this much.
The back has the frame shape printed on it.
When you take it out, it's secured in a clear case like you see above.
It's packed in pretty tight, so it doesn't come out easily.
A total of 6 metal frame pieces are included.
Gold metal ducts on the chest.
Small, but they've got a solid weight to them — very metal.
Metal frame for the forearm section.
As you can see, polycaps are built right in.
Beautiful metal frame for the leg section
The polycaps and all the articulation joints come pre-assembled.
The hip joint section.
All the articulation parts come pre-assembled as well.
Hip joint articulation. Joint strength is more than sufficient.
The white molded color isn't a pure white — it has a slight off-white, creamy tint to it.
Looking at the product name on the runners, it's officially called "Metal-in Frame Gundam."
Meaning this is a completely new 30th anniversary-style 1/100 Gunpla, designed entirely from scratch and totally separate from the existing MG Gundam.
The detail is MG-level, but...
it feels just a notch below the precision of more recent kits.
A dedicated stand and a docking station for the phone are included.
The quality of the stand base is actually pretty impressive..
Seals and decals are provided at MG level.
The one difference is that the decals are waterslide decals.
