Unboxing an RG Gundam Astray Red Frame
This is the first time I have purchased a Real Grade Gundam model. I usually just buy SDs or MGs since they are a lot cheaper.
This one costs up to 40usd in toy stores but I found a seller on Facebook that gave it to me for just 25usd (1250php). So I saved a lot by doing that.
This isn't a big toy but the box was big because it needed more frames/runners than the usual HG class to make the design more complicated but also improve overall articulation.
Opening the box gives us the printed manual (which is in Japanese so we'd have to rely solely on the pictures).
It contained runners labeled from A to I to make assembly easier.
The main color are white, red, and gray. Both white, gray, and red had 2 shades each. There were other colors like gold, chrome, pink and green for some other parts and accessories; to give more aesthetics to it.
It also had tons of stickers/decals to use, which is a pain applying since this model is really small.
My next post will be a build preview. Stay tuned! Thanks for reading!

Nice and cool Dev. I want this also if I just have some extra cash haha.
Astig noh? Yung PG nga gusto ko din kaya lang super mahal, abutin ako 15k. XD
Astig talaga. The best part yong pwede mo syang e set sa kahit anong action pose. PG? That's so dope! :D I wouldn't mind buying basta may pambili na hahaha.
Perfect Grades - puro more than 10k (if may less siguro 8k pero yung old model or boot leg siguro kaya mura - meron din other brand pero Bandai lang kasi top).
Hi bro, cool looking-gundam you've there got to love the astrays. I also have ang MG and one that looks like yours (still boxed after 3 yrs!) I can't summon the time, strength and concentration to build it just yet. Just some minor corrections tho, the model we have is an RG (Real Grade) and not a PG.
Crap, haha. That's part of me wishing I had a PG model wahaha. Thanks for noticing that.
I'm actually wanting to buy the HG, MG and PG (in that order) but I need to make sure my wife won't kill me. If both SBD and Steem will become 10$ or more I could buy anything in an instant.
Np ;) Haha its good that you think of first things first. I'm positive sooner or later you'll have that PG model as a kickback from SBD. One down for you, RG's come next after HG's. I'm looking forward for some cool action poses from your RG Astray Red Frame!
Yep, I've finished all the decals. Just need to set up a nicer background before I start shooting. Also need an action base.
Bur this look like as a boxing
