Kotobukiya Frame Arms 1/100 SA-17 Rapiere English Manual & Color Guide

I have to say that my interest in the Frame Arms original title line of Kotobukiya has been piqued after seeing the EXF-10/32 Greifen. So because of this I took at gander at the SA-17 Rapiere that was released earlier this year.

SA-17 RAPIERE

Manufacturer:

KOTOBUKIYA

Release Date:

2011

Scale:

1/100

Brand:

FRAME ARMS

The Rapiere is a female form mecha and is based off the SA-16 Stylet. But I guess the correct term should be is that its an upgrade of that earlier design. The Rapiere is designed for agility and speed and comes packed with a Spiral Rifle and a Naginata.

Construction Manual and Color Guide for the 1/100 was translated to English from the Japanese manual posted at Dalong's Gunpla & Model Kit Review site. For the meaning of the symbols found in the Kotobukiya's model kit manual, kindly refer to this older post.
