The Vic Viper from "Gradius V" has been upgraded a bit since its first appearance. It now carries a beam Shot, tail guns, missiles, spread bombs, photon torpedos, laser, and fire blaster! A slightly redesigned chassis also adds to the fun and looks very militaristic. The weapon containers and landing gear open. The engines are also realistically detailed. A stand is included to show off the Vic Viper in flight. Molded in white and gray with a clear part for the canopy. A sheet of self-adhesive stickers is provided for detail so no painting is required (although paint will be needed if you want your model to look like the completed sample shown on the box and in the photos below).
