Discover the formidable HAW206, a multi-legged armoured vehicle developed by Kenbishi Heavy Industries, with this 1/35 scale model kit from Kotobukiya. This version faithfully reproduces the appearance of the vehicle used by the Japan Ground Self-Defence Force in Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex 2nd GIG, complete with its distinctive Olive Drab military livery.
Once assembled, the model measures approximately 23.5 cm in length, or nearly 24 cm. Kotobukiya has paid particular attention to the articulation of its mechanical arms and legs to allow for numerous configurations and to capture the imposing appearance of this futuristic arachnid tank.
The HAW206 is equipped with its iconic 120 mm smoothbore tank gun. Its cockpit also features an opening hatch and a detailed interior based on its appearance in the anime. The claws at the tips of its limbs can be displayed in an extended position using interchangeable parts.
Some parts are made from transparent plastic to ensure a faithful representation straight out of the box. A dedicated display base is also included, and the model remains compatible with Kotobukiya’s Flying Bases to create a wider variety of poses.

In the Ghost in the Shell universe, technological advances are not limited to cyberbrains and body augmentations: the military also has at its disposal autonomous vehicles and highly sophisticated multi-legged tanks.
The HAW206 is a multi-legged tank developed by Kenbishi Heavy Industries. In Stand Alone Complex 2nd GIG, this version appears as a model officially adopted by the Japan Ground Self-Defence Force, recognisable in particular by its military Olive Drab livery.
Its multi-limb configuration gives it a mobility very different from that of a traditional tank, whilst its 120 mm main gun provides it with firepower suited to heavy combat. Its cockpit and mechanical limbs perfectly illustrate the fusion of advanced military robotics and armoured vehicle design that characterises the technological world of Ghost in the Shell.
This Kotobukiya version accurately reproduces the Ground Self-Defence Army Ver. from S.A.C. 2nd GIG, which sets it apart from the previous HAW206 Proto Type also produced by the manufacturer. It is therefore a particularly interesting addition to any collection dedicated to the Tachikoma, Fuchikoma and other iconic mechanical vehicles from the franchise.
