Strengthen your front lines with a futuristic war machine boasting an elite design, thanks to the modern plastic engineering developed by Bandai Spirits.
The bEXM-40 Novalv stands out as one of the most aggressive and streamlined units in the Byron army. The kit immediately stands out thanks to its military colour scheme, combining matt olive-green plastic with a mechanical-grey internal chassis, all enhanced by magnificent clear orange optical sensors on the face and shield. Its slender, athletic frame features legs in a reverse digitigrade stance, giving it the appearance of an agile and swift hunter.
Full modularity and an integrated clawed shield:
True to the revolutionary concept of the 30MM range, the construction utilises the simplified Fine Build system for quick and intuitive assembly. The Novalv comes ready for combat with a versatile arsenal: a streamlined beam assault rifle for the right arm and an imposing protective shield for the left forearm. This shield incorporates a functional mechanism fitted with two movable lower melee claws.
Unlimited posing freedom and compatibility:
Despite its unusual leg design, the figure boasts remarkable balance and reinforced joints, allowing for extreme dynamic poses (crouching, jumping or sliding). Its entire body is dotted with standardised 3 mm connection ports, allowing any weapons, armour and transport modules from the collection to be instantly attached.
