What is Byakko (FRAME ARMS GIRL)?

Byakko is a somewhat special character among the many released in FRAME ARMS GIRL.
It was released in 2018 after the anime series ended, so it does not appear in the anime.
Incidentally, the design of Byakko, released at the same time in FRAME ARMS, was also handled by Shinkawa Youji-Sensei.

So, the Byakko from FRAME ARMS GIRL that we introduced today was specially designed by Shinkawa Youji-Sensei, which is why we also brought up METAL GEAR SOLID!

It seems that Shinkawa Youji-Sensei is not only responsible for character design in METAL GEAR SOLID but also serves as the art director and mechanical designer! Knowing that, the design feels particularly powerful, especially in the upper body......!

We also have METAL GEAR SOLID series plastic models at Plastic Model Republic, so please feel free to place the two side by side and experience the commonality in design!
