Bandai took their time with this Personal Trooper's product prototype for some reason, but finally we got the picture reveal for HG Model Kit Ashsaver / Ashsavior! This is quite a big deal because It took about 20-25 years for one of the cooler SRW Real Robot to ever get a proper physical product and it certainly worth celebrating! Scheduled for June 2025, HG Ashsavior will be sold for 4500 Yen.
My first exposure with Ashsavior is in GBA SRW OG2 where this Mecha is a secret unit that Lamia could obtain if Players managed to meet the criteria. But I only got the opportunity to use Ashsavior in SRW A Portable because it was my first pick with Axel as my main character and that game is such a bad experience to spend with this cool mech. In SRW OG, Ash Savior is an Elite Mecha used by Shadow Mirror faction which had its armaments named after melee weapons with Automated weapon called Sword Breaker being its strongest armament.
Unfortunately Ashsavior is completely overshadowed by other Shadow Mirror Mechas like Soulgain and Vysaga just because it is a mere Real Robot. However with Ashsavior's release, I felt optimistic that Laz Angriff which is SRW expy for Dougram could make it as well while Sentinel will handle the Super Robot department. On last note, the recently discussed Kainar Asytac did bear many resemblance with Ashsavior which is not likely a coincidence and I will see the comparison myself when I have both on my collection.
