Plastic Model Gunpla MG 1/100 MVF-X08+EW453R Eclipse Gundam Raijin Equipment

Based on the Lightning Striker concept, the Raijin Striker Pack with increased firepower and a large battery is reproduced with new modeling. Based on the design by mechanical designer Junichi Akutsu, it has been three-dimensionalized with sharp and precise modeling. In addition, a molding color with a different gradation from the "MG 1/100 Eclipse Gundam" currently on sale at the store is adopted. White, red, yellow, and blue coloring are expressed with a slightly matte coloring.

Complex designs such as the main weapon's large beam cannon, composite pod, and thrusters are reproduced with precision modeling. The head unit that strengthens the sensor system has a connection gimmick with the head of Eclipse Gundam. It is possible to reproduce the function "overdrive" that momentarily increases thrust by fully opening the booster. Slide the front and rear armor of the composite pod and deploy the deflection fins of the thruster. The central thruster has three deflection fins that can move.

The Raijin Striker Pack can be installed even in Eclipse Gundam's MA mode. It can also fly alone as an unmanned aircraft. It transforms into a fighter-like silhouette and can be displayed alone on the included display base.
