Released this February by Bandai is the 1/100 Master Grade variant of the Sengoku Astray Gundam. Another fine representation of the Astrays from the Gundam Seed line that can be seen in the Gundam Build Fighters series.
I've always had a soft spot for the design of the Astrays because of its coolness factor. The Perfect Grade Red Frame Astray is probably my most favorite Perfect Grade design ever. Speaking of Perfect Grades, would like to see Bandai release a new one. That series is a marvel in engineering design and complexity.
The MG Sengoku Astray Gundam is selling for $ at Amazon, 3630 yen at Amiami, 4250 yen at HobbyLink Japan
