The HG lineup, which previously only went up to the Red/Blue Frame, has now been joined by the Green Frame — Trojan's — as part of the SEED Frame Astray series.

At its core it's a color variation kit with just the frame swapped out to green, but it comes with the special addition of the Twin Sword Rifle as a new weapon. This same configuration would later be released in 1/100 scale in 2009 as well.

As you probably know, the HG Astray is something of a premium kit in its own right — its stylish design and cool action poses are its biggest selling points. The green frame color gives it a totally different vibe from the Red/Blue versions too. The newly added Twin Sword Rifle can even mount two beam parts, so it's pretty well-equipped on the functionality side.

It's not a kit that stands out with a hugely distinct personality of its own, but if you're an Astray fan, this feels like a must-build to complete the three-color set. :-)
