Unleash the industrial might of the Arquebus Group on the battlefield thanks to this major collaboration between FromSoftware and Bandai Spirits’ 30 Minutes Missions (30MM) range.
The VP-40S is one of the most iconic Armored Cores in video gaming, renowned for its balanced design optimised for versatility. On a collectable scale, this kit captures the machine’s fluid, faceted lines with surgical precision. Its bodywork consists of a superb assembly of layered grey parts with matt textures, dotted with sculpted optical sensors and micro-ventilation ducts.
Complete modularity true to the video game:
Faithfully adhering to the original game’s assembly concept, the robot’s structure is entirely segmented into four fundamental interchangeable blocks: the head, the torso (Core), the arms (Arms) and the legs (Legs). This advanced engineering allows you to customise your mech’s appearance as you wish by attaching parts from other Armored Core units in the range or elements from the 30 Minutes Missions series.
Official interchangeable weaponry:
The Arquebus VP-40S comes ready for high-intensity combat. The box contains its iconic standard-issue laser rifle with a streamlined twin barrel, designed to be held firmly by high-precision articulated hands. The mecha’s body is dotted with standardised 3 mm connection ports to accommodate optional shoulder-mounted missile launchers or energy shields.
