Ragnarsdóttir Classification: Melee Armaments: (1) SW-HROTTI(1) SH-SKALTWR An updated version of the Skalmold model with a more streamlined redesign, better stability, durability, and mobility. The Mk.II also comes with updated weapons to compliment the upgrade package. BUILD NOTES This is basically a straight rebuild of the Skalmold (reFrame v2) from 2016. Originally, I had planned to redo this build as part of the r3build project but never got around to doing it. As the original Skalmold was supposed to be a light V3 reFrame, it was the perfect candidate for the V4 light design test. This was actually built backRead More →

Marzan Empire Classification: ??? Armaments: (1) FT-HELLFIRE66 (1) FW-NEKOTE (2) MS-STLR8 The Oushiza is a one-of-a-kind Marzan unit, specially designed for one of its most battle-hardened generals. Battle data and accounts on it are rare since the few that reported seeing it were battle-shocked and couldn’t remember anything except that it was ruthless and precise. A pinnacle of Marzan destruction.  BUILD NOTES Similar to the Hyouga (reimagination of the  Zane’s Titan Mech Battle (71738) set), the Oushiza is a reimagined mech build in reFrame proportions and style of the Demon Bull King (80010) set from the Monkie Kid theme.  ThisRead More →

GensoClassification: Melee / Mid range Armaments: (1) SW-TANTO(1) ER-HYOUSAWA(2) MS-MITSUBACHI A mysterious white reFrame that has been encountered in cold regions of Eastern Asia. Rumor has it that it is piloted by a silver haired pilot. BUILD NOTES I started building this shortly after reviewing the Zane’s Titan Mech Battle (71738) set. The goal was to make a reFrame version of the Zane design, taking key design concepts and shrinking it down to the reFrame size and level of detail. An additional goal was to give my new work-in-progress built-brick reFrame body cockpit a test run with a fully platedRead More →

Ascendant Lords – Kingdom of VzirClassification: MeleeArmaments: (1) PA-ALVZRSCY-XY Along with the overhaul of his twin sister’s reFrame, Ran Al’ Vzir also had his previous Vzir’ Ran overhauled and updated. The much improved Vzir’ Regis has all the functional upgrades done to the Vzir’ Regalia. Unlike his sister’s mech however, Monarch Ran instructed Court Engineers for a more conservative upgrade. One request was to specifically retain the imposing look with its wide shoulders and caped design. The PA-ALVZRSCY-XY Scythe is also only slightly modified from its previous iteration. BUILD NOTES This build, according to the lore, belongs to the twinRead More →

To keep the Kingdom of Vzir’s fighting forces in top condition, the female Monarch, Rin Al’ Vzir, requested her Court Engineers to completely overhaul her Vzir’ Rin reFrame to match the newer reFrame models of neighboring countries.

Keeping up with their individual personalities and fighting styles, the new Vzir’ Regalia features a slender, more agile design and is now equipped with the SW-VZ-DUALR Dual Swords. The Quorus core flight module was further upgraded to allow better low altitude mobility. This is well protected by the new armor skirting design that also acts as extra flight stabilizers.

The Kobold was designed by the Progenitors as a cost-efficient mass-produced unit that’s capable of handling multiple combat situations in various terrain thanks to a quick-swap loadout system. While not as highly rated as the Dirius production model, its lower cost and high customization options makes up for what it lacks in performance.

The new Liberator line manufactured by the Marzan Empire is an entirely new approach to reFrame development. By retaining the core system throughout a variety of models and only making modifications mostly in limbs and armaments, it has allowed Marzan engineers to roll out 2 different models with varying roles in the same R&D duration as one reFrame unit.

Translated from the word Prosperity from an old pre-Quorus nation, the Fanrong serves both as elite reFrame unit and as a sign of Tian Guo’s wealth and military might. While not equipped with any ranged weapons like most reFrames in the Ascendant Lords, its high mobility coupled with the YANHU Fanrong shields allow it to quickly close in and cleave through reFrame ranks with ease with the PA-GUANDAO-FR.

It is believed that upon seeing this deep red reFrame that one will be blessed in good tidings. While this may be true for the inhabitants of Tian Guo, a newly formed Lordship that has deep roots to a long forgotten dynasty, seeing this on the opposite side of the battlefield isn’t so prosperous, even more when you’re within reach of its deadly PA-GUANDAO-FR.

The Dirius model was designed to be a high-performance mass produced unit that could be outfitted with different loadouts.

The first of its loadouts is the Full Armor package with reactive armor panels for major body parts. The extra armor raises the damage reduction of the Dirius by 200%, rivaling thicker armored reFrames although increasing the Dirius overall weight. Once an armor panel is damaged, the pilot can opt to discard that panel through the quick release locks on each panel.

The Sailia Dual is a high performance variant model of the NESF-MO7TSL Sailia optimized for long distance firefights. It is equipped with two RC-ELXXRAIL modified Rail Cannons and the MS-VMDUAL2 Rear vertical missile system.

ProgenitorsClassification: Mid-Long Range Armaments: (1) BZ-BLSTRCS198X(1) HC-DUALCS198X  Marzan EmpireClassification: Melee Armaments: (2) SW-MACHETE (Takeda recolor) The Takeda is a custom recolor variant of the Kurosawa Sword Kai. It is rumored to move at thrice the speed. Nothing else is known about the unit. BUILD NOTES This was actually built as a display piece over at my ToyCon PH 2019 booth as a special color variant of the Kurosawa Sword Kai. As with most of Quiccs’ pieces, I just had to make a red version with gold accents and a more pronounced Samurai vibe to it.  Build wise, there’s only very smallRead More →

Probably one of the stranger reFrames currently still in service, the Tiger is believed to be an old-world tank stripped apart and reassembled unto a reFrame base. No one knows exactly how it was engineered but it works surprisingly well as mobile artillery. Literally, a tank on legs.

After the success of the Mammoth model, the Zenithal was born out of NESF’s aim for a better defense combat reFrame with improved mobility. The new heavy model features a thicker armor plating than its predecessor and is equipped with the DASH movement system. This allows it to briefly move in a straight line, closing the gap between enemy combatants.

The latest version of the Kurosawa series, the Sword Kai is a stripped down version of the Hyper Kai that goes back to the roots of the design with a much increased mobility rating.

A magnificent reFrame made out of the finest orange-colored Quorus. The Spessar’s armor is known to be stronger than most reFrame armors and its special swords can cut through any armor plating or defensive construct. Rumors have it that both the armor and swords regenerate after sustaining damage making this a reFrame you do not want to encounter. No one knows exactly how this reFrame was made or who made it.
