A KOTOBUKIYA Japanese Import!! KOTOBUKIYA brings you the highly articulated plastic model kit "ALTEISEN RISE" from the world of SUPER ROBOT TAISEN (SUPER ROBOT
WAR) that is one of the best games in history. ALTEISEN RIESE is a power up version of normal ALTEISEN and getting additional arms and parts.
The kits require easy snap fit assembly, and do not need to be painted, although you may choose to customize or detail the weapons as you see fit. All items include pictorial assembly instructions. Due April 2008 for 4800y
After a battle with Axel's Soulgain, Alt Eisen was defeated. Kyosuke made a request to Professor Radom to upgrade the Alt Eisen, and even helped develop it. His plan was to strengthen its strong points by increasing its armor and offensive capabilities.
It's equipped with a Tesla Drive in order to help with the balancing issues caused by its newly added extremely heavy weaponry. Its Revolving Stake was enlarged and upgraded into the Revolving Bunker, while the Triple Machine Cannon was upgraded to having five barrels instead of three. The Square Claymore became an Aerial Claymore, and the Heat Horn turned into the Plasma Horn.
Alt Eisen Riese means "Old Iron Giant" in German.
