The 1/72 scale kit from ARMORED CORE NEXUS stands about 160mm tall and carries the same red used on the Mirage C02-URANUS. Kotobukiya Shop orders include an additional arm unit. The kit is priced at 4,180 yen, tax included, with sculpting by Yudai Itoyama.","whyItMatters":"A limited kit that had been hard to find returns at a fixed hobby price, and the C02-URANUS color match makes part-swapping with existing V.I. Series builds the point of the reissue.","webCardHtml":"\u003cp\u003eThe reissue keeps the full loadout of the original: the H11-QUEEN head, C01-GAEA core, A11-MACAQUE arms and LH09-COUGAR2 legs, plus the CR-WR93RL rifle, WL-MOONLIGHT laser blade, MAGORAGA missiles, CR-WB91LGL linear gun and FUNI extension. Two hand types, grip and weapon-holding, are included.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe kit is 1/72 scale at roughly 160mm tall, with Yudai Itoyama credited as sculptor. The V.I.

Mirage C01-GAEA carries the same red as the Mirage C02-URANUS, so Kotobukiya is tying two Armored Core NEXUS kits together in color rather than treating the reissue as a standalone repaint.","twitterPost":"Kotobukiya's Mirage C01-GAEA reissue reuses the red of the Mirage C02-URANUS, linking two Armored Core NEXUS kits by color.","threadsPost":"Kotobukiya's Red Metal Ver. Mirage C01-GAEA shares its red with the Mirage C02-URANUS. That color match makes the reissue read as a companion piece to the earlier Armored Core NEXUS kit rather than a one-off limited repaint, and the Kotobukiya Shop arm unit adds a reason to order direct.","newsletterBlurb":"Kotobukiya is bringing back the limited-edition V.I.
