This kit was purchased open from one of my Gunpla hobbyist buddies. It was complete but assembled. So I had to disassemble and rework all the parts. I wasn't very happy to work on this one because in looks this kit looked terrible compared to the Astray Mirage Frame I built a couple years ago HERE.
Keep in-mind that this kit is over-done with armor if you build it right out the box and it should look something like this:

That just too much crap on something that can be much simpler. That huge sword is probably larger than a ****** and doesn't belong here!
Notice those parts I highlighted in Orange? Those all hinder articulation of the head, feet, shoulders should be a positioned a little steep and pffftt that backpack is NOT necessary at all! Those gotta go for me!

Not close enough?
Check it out twice!
Added a booster pack on the back for added boost? If it ever comes to life?
A good look at how the shoulders are now pointed up.
Yep that big hunk of junk sword got re-purposed as twin arm blades.
The opposite pictures!
Oh there's a reason why this one was renamed "Gun Buster" I quite like the canons compared to the swords but both options are available now.
Back view with the guns!
I still don't think that it compares to my Mirage Frame as an equal. But I think it's still quite cool how I was able to save a kit I didn't even want to work on. Anyway I'm off till the next post with a comparison picture below. Enjoy!
