In the Battletech universe, few Mechs instill more fear in veteran MechWarriors than the sight of an AS7-D Atlas stepping on the battlefield. This Mech is classified as an Assault Mech, and tips the scales at 100 tons.

This kit is from the now out-of-production Armorcast line, and is a fantastic representation of the Mech. Although cast in resin, the kit features lots of articulation, including a pivoting torso, rotating arms and elbows, and posable legs. Additional options available to the builder offer the chance to build the following variants of the Mech:

AS7-S (AC-20, LRM 20, SRM 6, 2 Medium Lasers)

AS7-K (Gauss Rifle, LRM 20, SRM 6, 2 Medium Pulse Lasers)

AS7-S2 (AC-20, LRM 20, SRM 6, 2 Medium Pulse Lasers – rear, 2 SRM Streak 2, and 2 Medium Lasers)

The kit was beautifully cast in white resin, and was free from bubbles, holes, or voids. The engineering on this kit is fantastic, and Armorcast did a great job of providing articulation without sacrificing casting quality. Seams appear where armor sections would join with a natural panel line. No decals were included with the kit reviewed, but can be obtained from a number of after-market sources.

This kit is one of the best resin Mech kits mastered, and is a fantastic addition to anyone’s collection if they like Mech kits. The kits are hard to come by, and are priced rather high, but the cost is well worth it.
