This HEAVY WEAPON UNIT introduces the new and improved second version of one of the series's most popular units, the GUN BLADE LANCE.

• The unit maintains the composite armament concept with tweaks to some of its coloring.
• The blades and other parts can be separated to create multiple different weapons. The clear parts were changed to a more streamlined, flame-like design.
• This item was developed in cooperation with KIKUCHI SEISAKUSHO CO., LTD., located in Hachioji, Tokyo, with the aspiration to illustrate quality Japanese craftsmanship.
