Hexa Gear Definition Armor: Blazeboar 1/24 Scale Model Kit (Reissue)

Product Description

At its core, the BLAZEBOAR is a pragmatic redesign of what the DEFINITION ARMOR originally strove to be. Able to provide heavy weaponry to units in narrow terrain such as ravines and cities that are impassable by heavier units, and be deployed to the front lines to provide infantry with cover during mopping-up operations, these smaller HEXA GEAR continue to prove their usefulness in real-world operations alongside infantry units.

The Definition Armor was a lightweight, highly mobile exoskeleton for infantry that was created to wreak havoc on the battlefield. The concept was based on two previously successful HEXA GEAR, with tweaks made to their designs—the first being a downsized version of the bipedal humanoid heavy HEXA GEAR, BULKARM α, and the second being the renowned SCARECROW with elements simplified to allow the rider to wear the armor instead of riding it.

However, an early prototype that was tested on a real battlefield lacked balance due to the overuse of various elements. The armor thus became infamous as a "cutting-edge walking coffin." However, the armor did excel at one aspect: its ability to be mass-manufactured. Thus, to achieve practical application, various alterations and refinements to the design were considered.

The only plans that eventually made it to production were the WOODPECKER, a unit that lent itself to the armor's lightweight and high-speed capabilities, and this BLAZEBOAR, which realized a downsized version of BULKARM as the design had originally intended. 

The core components of BLAZEBOAR are largely the same as those of the WOODPECKER developed around the same time. However, BLAZEBOAR utilizes sensors in the center of the upper torso to provide a wider field of view to the left and right to compensate for its reduced maneuverability. The large legs serve as armor that protects the lower body of the Governor and the arms, which are equipped with heavy weapons, act as side armor. The thruster is designed to be smaller and less powerful than the WOODPECKER to reduce the weight of the unit and allow it to deploy alongside walking infantry units.

In addition to the master-slave system, control of the armor is assisted by the G2AI, an AI system that uses data from the BMI installed in the Governor's standard issue WARMAGE to ensure the stable control of both the unit and its armaments.
