Story & Background: The MBF-P02 Gundam Astray Red Frame is a prototype mobile suit developed in the Orb Union's Astray series. Piloted by Junk Guild member Lowe Guele, the Red Frame is known for its versatility, agility, and close-combat prowess. Unlike typical mobile suits that rely heavily on beam weaponry, the Gundam Astray Red Frame is famous for its use of physical swords, particularly the Gerbera Straight, a katana-like blade that symbolizes its mastery of melee combat.
