Gai uses the Blue Frame’s versatility to outmaneuver and overpower his enemies, proving its effectiveness in a wide range of combat scenarios.

Equipped with powerful weapons, such as the 100mm Tactical Arms, and its iconic blue inner frame, the Blue Frame is a symbol of tactical precision and combat efficiency in the Gundam SEED Astray series.

The Tactical Arms can be mounted on the back or held in hand, offering multiple display options.

Stickers are included for additional markings, such as the Serpent Tail insignia and mechanical detailing, giving the model a polished and realistic finish.
