P-Bandai 1/144 Plastic Model RG 1/144 MBF-P02 Gundam Astray Red Dragon From Mobile Suit Gundam SEED DESTINY ASTRAY R

The RG Gundam Astray Red Dragon from Mobile Suit Gundam SEED DESTINY ASTRAY R is a highly detailed Real Grade Gunpla kit that brings the iconic mobile suit to life in 1/144 scale. Produced by Bandai as part of the premium RG lineup within the Gundam universe, this model kit features newly sculpted parts to accurately recreate the Caletvwlch, Flight Unit, and Dryg Head. Designed with advanced articulation and mechanical detail, the RG Gundam Astray Red Dragon offers exceptional poseability and display value for collectors and builders alike.

One of the main highlights of this RG kit is the Caletvwlch’s versatile transformation system. Thanks to universal joints and RG-exclusive reassembly features, the Build Cutter and Build Knife can be separated or combined into multiple weapon configurations, including twin swords and a powerful three-part combined form. Two Caletvwlchs can also be connected to create the impressive Ambidextrous Halberd. In addition, the weapon can transform into cannon mode, expanding its combat display options. The kit includes newly designed realistic decals that enhance its mechanical aesthetics, while the wide range of motion allows for dynamic action poses straight out of the series. This makes the RG Gundam Astray Red Dragon an essential Gunpla kit for fans seeking high detail, articulation, and versatile weapon gimmicks.

MBF-P02 Gundam Astray Red Dragon

The MBF-P02 Gundam Astray Red Dragon is a customized variant of the Astray series that appears in Mobile Suit Gundam SEED DESTINY ASTRAY R, a side story set within the Cosmic Era timeline of the Gundam universe. Based on the original MBF-P02 Astray Red Frame, the Red Dragon configuration is equipped with the powerful “Caletvwlch” equipment system, which integrates multiple large beam blades and flight units into a versatile backpack. 

This armament enhances both its close-combat dominance and mobility, allowing it to perform high-speed aerial maneuvers while delivering devastating beam attacks. Maintaining the Astray series’ distinctive red color scheme and samurai-inspired design elements, the Gundam Astray Red Dragon combines elegant aesthetics with overwhelming firepower, making it one of the most striking and formidable variants in the Astray lineage.

Real Grade Gunpla

Real Grade (RG) Gunpla is a line of plastic model kits produced by Bandai under the broader Gundam franchise. Introduced in 2010 to celebrate the series’ 30th anniversary, Real Grade kits are known for combining the compact 1/144 scale size with an exceptional level of mechanical detail and realism. Each kit features an advanced inner frame system that replicates the complex structure of a mobile suit, allowing for dynamic articulation and poseability. 

RG models also emphasize color accuracy through multi-part molding technology, minimizing the need for extensive painting. With intricate panel lines, realistic decals, and refined proportions inspired by both anime and real-world engineering concepts, Real Grade Gunpla offers hobbyists a highly detailed and immersive building experience in a relatively small scale.
