Kotobukiya Frame Arms: Type 32 Model5R-Ex Zen-Rai with Assault Unit and Buster Sword Aramament

 Here is a an idea I have for the Zen-Rai Frame Arms mecha unit. I've decided to call it ExCalibre.

 

As you can see, I'm a fan of asymmetrical designs. My first concern here was that the buster sword had to be stowed away - So I decided that the best way to do that was to "break" the sword into some pieces (much like Cloud Strife from FF7 does in the Advent Children movie).

Here it is with the Buster Sword assembled. It's derived from the unified design from two HW-3 Weapons Systems.

This is the more traditional design.

This is a somewhat more symmetrical design, and a layout option just in case the mecha unit needs both hands free. To be honest, a bit awkward.
