Full Metal Panic! The Second Raid - ARX-7 Arbalest - ALMecha - 1/60 (Alter)ARX-7 Arbalest · Alter

Alter presents the ARX-7 Arbalest from Full Metal Panic! The Second Raid as part of their ALMecha line at 1/60 scale. Sculpted by Miura Osami, this figure stands approximately 145mm tall and is constructed from ABS and PVC materials. In Full Metal Panic! The Second Raid, the ARX-7 Arbalest is a customized M9 Gernsback Arm Slave designed to house an experimental Lambda Driver, a device that converts willpower into defensive and offensive force. Piloted exclusively by Sergeant Sousuke Sagara of the anti-terrorist organization Mithril, the Arbalest features a sophisticated AI system named Al. Unlike conventional AI, Al can comprehend basic human emotions, creating a dynamic between pilot and machine that mirrors Sousuke's often frustrating relationship with Kaname Chidori. The Arbalest's distinctive head design includes a horizontal mouthpiece that holds an Anti-Tank Dagger. The unit was ultimately heavily damaged in combat against Leonard Testarossa's Belial, leading to its Lambda Driver and AI being salvaged for the successor unit, the ARX-8 Laevatein. This 1/60 scale figure from Alter captures the Arbalest's detailed mechanical design with precision. Priced at 12,800 JPY, it offers fans a meticulously crafted representation of this iconic mecha.
