The Frame Arms Kenshin is the latest masterpiece from the mind of Kunio Okawara, the legendary Japanese mechanical designer!
This stunning kit features a unique design that combines elements of samurai armor with modern technology. The model can be displayed in two different forms, either with a warrior's helmet or a priest's swallow-tailed cap. The new unique designs are shown on various parts of this model such as the helmet and the flag emblem on its back. They bring out the main colors of the model which are blue, red, and gold.
The model's colour scheme is recreated with coloured plastic, so you don't need to paint it. The multi-coloured plastic of the kits gives the model a striking appearance simply by assembling the model.
The kit also includes a long-handled sword ("Naginata"), a long and short Japanese sword, and a "gunbai" (military leader's fan) for SHINGEN. The wings with the emblem that are secured with a back pack and the shoulder armor can be adjusted freely to create a variety of silhouettes. The hand parts use swing joints. Gun-holding hand parts are included with "FA Hand 2."
The kit includes decals for this model, so you can customise it to your liking. The model uses Frame Architect Renewal ver. for the robot's frame. The Frame Architect is unassembled and made of PS plastic. The hips of Frame Architect use joint parts that allow for more secure support.
This is the perfect kit for any fan of Kunio Okawara, the Frame Arms series, or mecha in general. Order yours today!

Gunpla (plastic model kits) are a snap together assembly and do not need plastic cement to complete. We always recommend having some plastic cement handy as a part of your modeler's tool kit. If you prefer to fix your model in a particular pose then plastic cement will work. Plastic cement is also perfect to use if a joint is loose. Apply plastic cement in a single thin layer and allow it to dry completely before test fitting. Re-apply more cement if necessary.
Gunpla (plastic model kits) are designed to be built and displayed without the need for painting. Kits are molded in different colours replicating the colours of the actual mecha from the Gundam series. A technique called colour separation, where multiple parts of the model are molded in different colours on the same sprue is also used. Gundam kits often include stickers or water-slide decals that can be applied to the model to enhance its appearance. Some Gunpla kits come with pre-painted parts or parts with pre-applied details, such as metallic or translucent finishes.
Many modelers still choose to paint their kits to customize and add further detail. Painting allows for more creativity and personalization, enabling modelers to achieve unique effects, weathering, and colour schemes that may not be available out of the box. However, the kits are designed to be enjoyable and visually appealing even without painting, making them accessible to a wide range of hobbyists.
No, you don't! The kit comes with multi-coloured plastic, so it looks striking right out of the box.
The kit includes a long-handled sword (Naginata), a long and short Japanese sword, and a "gunbai" (military leader's fan).
Absolutely, the kit comes with decals to let you put your personal touch on it.
The model uses Frame Architect Renewal ver. for a robust and secure structure, particularly in the hip joints.
The Frame Arms Kenshin is a detailed kit that might be more suited for intermediate to advanced builders due to its various parts and options for customisation. However, if you're a beginner willing to take on a challenge, go for it! The end result is highly rewarding.
