From Japan's BANDAI SPIRITS Company HOBBY Division, the 1/144 scale Gunpla 'HG (High Grade)' series, known for its most diverse range of mobile suits, has officially announced the latest product from the anime 'Mobile Suit Gundam GQuuuuuuX', the 'HG 1/144 Zaku (GQ)', scheduled for release in November 2025.
The MS-06 Zaku appearing in 'GQuuuuuuX' is fundamentally the same in setting as the original 'Zaku II' from 'Mobile Suit Gundam'. It is the main mass-produced MS used by the Principality of Zeon forces during the One Year War, possessing excellent mobile suit performance, outstanding environmental adaptability, and an easily modifiable frame. This allowed the Zaku to be widely deployed in various battlefields and led to the development of numerous specifications, making it a symbolic mobile suit of the Principality of Zeon.
The 'HG 1/144 Zaku (GQ)' faithfully recreates Ikuto Yamashita's design style, which blends realistic industrial aesthetics with sci-fi elements. Compared to the original, it features unique designs such as thigh shapes composed of four spherical fuel tanks and large thruster nozzles directly placed at the rear of the legs. The kit utilizes new parts and new molding colors to produce the characteristic military green paint scheme of the mass-produced Zaku, along with shoulder armor, shoulder shields, and fuel tank designs that differ from the Military Police Zaku.
The head's mono-eye camera and the connection points of the shoulder shield both feature movable mechanisms. The torso and limbs also boast highly flexible movable joint designs, allowing for dynamic and powerful poses when combined with weapons such as the Zaku Machine Gun, Heat Hawk, and the newly molded Zaku Bazooka.
