The Infinite Dimension IN ERA+ RULING Type 01 Full Armed Battle Machine is a 1/100 scale original mecha model kit featuring a full diecast alloy inner frame and heavy ranged-weapon loadout. Designed as the firepower-focused counterpart to the transformation-capable Genesis, the RULING emphasizes raw ordnance density - carrying six weapons across shoulder-mounted cannons, missile pistols, and forearm-attached kinetic rifles, with hidden missile bays in both the shoulder armor and chest plate. Infinite Dimension (also known as IN ERA+) is a premium Chinese third-party mecha brand recognized for engineering-heavy kits with high part counts, complex internal structures, and alloy frame construction.
Key Features
Full Diecast Alloy Inner Frame - Pre-assembled alloy skeleton spans the arms, torso, thighs, knees, and feet, concentrating metal in all load-bearing joints for rigid posing under the kit's 564g total weight
Heavy Ranged Weapon Arsenal - Six weapons in two mirrored sets: two long-range beam cannons with extendable barrels and deployable heat fins, two triple-missile pistols, and two composite kinetic cannons mounted on the forearms
Hidden Missile Bay System - Shoulder armor panels slide forward and flip open to reveal internal missile pods, upper shoulder plates open to expose triple-launch bays, and chest armor flips down to reveal dual missile compartments
Weapon Configuration Flexibility - All six weapons connect via adapter pegs, allowing full deployment across both arms and backpack, or consolidated rear storage in a weapon-matrix formation on the backpack
33 Runners with Matte-Finish Molding - Color-separated parts with a matte surface texture across the purple, gray, and orange armor panels, with undergated runners throughout for minimal visible nub marks
Removable Transparent Face Visor - Head unit includes a clear face shield that can be removed to reveal an alternate head appearance underneath
Display Base Included - Dedicated stand with reversible printed design card and rear-mounted connection point for aerial display poses
Builder Context
The RULING is an intermediate-to-advanced build with approximately 10 hours of assembly time. The alloy frame comes pre-assembled, so the build focuses on layering armor panels and assembling weapons. No cement or painting is required - the kit is snap-fit with color-separated molding and includes waterslide decals and foil stickers for detail work. Builders familiar with MG-grade Bandai kits will find the complexity and part count comparable, with the added weight and rigidity of the metal skeleton providing a distinctly different handling experience during and after assembly.
Why Build This Kit
The Infinite Dimension RULING Type 01 is one of the few 1/100 third-party mecha kits that combines a full diecast inner frame with a complete ranged-weapon arsenal, making it a strong choice for builders who want a heavy, display-stable kit with weapon variety rather than melee options. At 22.5 cm tall and 564 grams, the finished build has substantial shelf presence and physical heft that most plastic-frame kits in this scale cannot match - comparable in weight to Bandai's Metal Build finished figures rather than standard MG kits. Builders who have completed the Infinite Dimension Genesis will find the RULING uses the same armor quality and engineering philosophy but trades transformation capability for weapon density and hidden ordnance gimmicks. The RULING is generally regarded as one of the more forgiving IN ERA+ builds - unlike some other kits in the line, part tolerances are well-calibrated and do not typically require sanding for assembly. One known build consideration is that the ball joints connecting the rear beam cannons to the backpack mechanical arms can weaken with repeated repositioning, so builders should plan their display pose before extensive adjustment.
