Bandai 5055356 - HiRM 1/100 Gundam Astray Red Frame Model Kit Display-Ready Edition  [B-5055356]

Summary of the HiRM Astray Red Frame

The HiRM 1/100 Gundam Astray Red Frame by Bandai pairs a sturdy inner frame with intricately moulded armor parts to reproduce the Astray Red Frame from Gundam SEED Astray. The model favours fine detail and accurate articulation for display models.

Articulation benefits of the pre-assembled frame

The pre-built internal frame provides reliable joint movement and holds heavier armour without sagging. Builders can achieve aggressive poses while retaining structural integrity and balance.

Difficulty level and essential tools

Due to complex part separation and many small pieces, this kit is classed as advanced. Essential tools include precision side cutters, a sharp modelling knife, sandpaper or sanding sticks, and fine tweezers.

Painting technique and finishing suggestions

Enhance panel detail with lining or washes, then apply decals carefully before sealing with a clear coat. A primer helps the paint adhere and reveals minor seam lines to fix before final finishing.

The HiRM 1/100 Gundam Astray Red Frame is best for experienced modellers aiming for a high fidelity Gunpla display piece.
