Product Description
[Aircraft Description]
- Bulkarm β is a second-generation Hexa Gear that was developed by improving the [α type], which was praised as a masterpiece but had problems that were pointed out during actual combat operations. It was developed and manufactured by the military-industrial complex MSG, just like the [α type].
- The main external features of this unit are its legs, which are equipped with auxiliary devices for movement, resulting in a significant improvement in cruising speed compared to the [α type]. This is an improvement to the fact that the Bulkarm series, especially the [α type], sacrifices mobility due to the use of durable armor, making it difficult to coordinate with other land weapons such as combat vehicles.
- In line with this speed improvement, the head has also been changed from the [Type Alpha] to a more versatile model that emphasizes maneuverability and is equipped with sensors suitable for mid- to close-range combat.
- As for on-board firearms, the standard specification immediately after shipping from the manufacturer is limited to the bare minimum of a submachine gun and a heat knife, which also reflects the concept of speed.
- Another difference from the Alpha type is the expanded range of motion of the frame of the arm working limbs, which allows for a wider range of tactics in close combat due to the increased freedom of movement. The tip of the working limb continues to use the iron fist from the Alpha type, so melee attacks using this are also highly powerful. In particular, the thrust from acceleration using the hover unit is known as a useful assault tactic.
- Governors customize their units from the moment they are deployed to suit their respective missions, terrain, and battle conditions, so only a few are deployed with the standard specifications described above.
- Some add firearms captured from the enemy, while others equip their armored vehicles with large swords and other weapons for close combat and head to the battlefield.
- Many of the weapons distributed by developer MSG at the time were used to strengthen this unit, and any Governor who has been on the battlefield knows that countless customized units were created.
- Governors who favored the more mobile Beta model often used light to medium-weight armament to make the most of the unit's original characteristics, and sometimes even reduced armor.
- However, due to various factors such as the ever-changing battle situation and each individual's financial circumstances (and perhaps personal tastes and preferences), it is common on the battlefield for operations to be carried out in ways that deviate from the aircraft's concept. There have also been confirmed cases where a unit was used in an operational manner that could be described as putting the cart before the horse, such as when it was equipped with large area suppression weapons to provide fire support for its assigned unit, resulting in excessive weight, leading to the removal of the leg units themselves and replacing them with crawler units with higher loading capacity.

- The visor that protects the head sensor can be moved.
- The closed-type cockpit can be opened and closed, and a governor (sold separately) can be placed inside. *Due to shape restrictions, some parts may need to be removed.
- The wrist frame has a universal joint structure similar to that of [Bulkarm β Lumberjack], allowing for a greater range of motion than [Bulkarm α] and a wider range of poses.
- The hover unit attached to the ankle can be removed, and by using the included parts, it can be used as a governor's hovercraft. The fan at the bottom of the hover unit and the ladder at the rear can be moved.
- The machine gun's magazine can be removed, and ammunition details are recreated. The magazine can be attached to either the left or right side.
- The heat knife has a HEXA G-R.A.M. loading hole, and can be attached to any 3mm hard point on the main body using the included HEXA G-R.A.M. PC and 3mm joints.
- If you wish, you can attach the optional Bull Armor to the legs to turn it into a heavy armor type.
- The body is molded in the same desert color as HEXA GEAR Booster Pack 003 (Desert Buggy) and MSG Gigantic Arms Wild Crawler, so it is easy to combine even without painting.
*The clear parts used for the sensor on the abdomen of Bulkarm β are colorless clear molded parts.
- Using optional parts, you can also assemble two different head parts for Bulkarm α.
