"Cruise Chaser Blassty" begun serialization in Hobby JAPAN Magazine, following its release as a PC game in the 1980s. The science fiction series which blended novel writing, full scratch build models and highly precise illustrations, continues to radiate an evergreen charm and appeal even today. The PLAMAX version of the main mecha, Blassty, was based on the designs from the Hobby JAPAN serialization, which is commonly referred to as the "novel version".
Each joint is articulated, and the mecha can be transformed from Cruise form to Special form with the help of interchangeable parts. The arms of the Cruise form are integrated, while the Special form makes use of articulate arm parts for a wide variety of both still and action poses. The display stand comes with two types of arms, to match the height of each form. Includes water-slide decals for the various markings on the mecha.
