It's very charitable of koto to call Byakko (not 'Hyakko'; where did that come from, out of curiosity?) a Frame Arms kit, actually. It uses the architect in a very... sparing manner. So it's not too weird for the FA:G version to do the same. That said, aside from the early fumikane designs being INC...

uh...

+1 Altines Rosa

Added some info about unreleased figures and kits.

This is WAY too late after the fact: but there's a reason for that. The designer for these two was Nagi Ryou... who did the designs for those games.

+1 Espadia

New shinki after so long... feels nice.

I'm not sure how much practical competition they are, given volks isn't selling them anywhere but on their own site. They are, however, probably going to be sold directly through their NA store, as well, so... easy to get.

I don't mean to burst any bubbles... but check the pictures of the arnval proto in the first post. That's from when they initially showed up. That arnval has elbow rivet detailing, though she seems to be missing the shoulder ones.
