The popular die-cast toy series 'METAL BUILD', released by TAMASHII NATIONS, the collector's toy division of Japan's BANDAI SPIRITS Co., Ltd., will hold a special exhibition for the series, 'METAL BUILD FESTIVAL 2024 WITH CLUB TAMASHII MEMBERS', from July 5 to September 2, 2024. In addition to unveiling several new prototype works for the first time, the exhibition will also launch a commemorative product, 'Destiny Gundam [METAL BUILD FESTIVAL 2024]', scheduled for release in July 2024.
The ZGMF-X42S Destiny Gundam is the latest mobile suit developed under the directive of Gilbert Durandal, Chairman of the P.L.A.N.T. Supreme Council, for the Z.A.F.T. military before their decisive battle with the Earth Alliance. It serves as the successor machine for Z.A.F.T. pilot Shinn Asuka. Developed based on the Impulse Gundam's design, the Destiny Gundam integrates the equipment of the Force, Blast, and Sword Silhouette systems. It also utilizes technologies prohibited by the Junius Treaty, such as the Hyper Duetrion Engine and Mirage Colloid, enabling it to deploy "Wings of Light" for extreme acceleration and scatter Mirage Colloid particles to create afterimages. Its performance significantly surpasses that of second-generation mobile suits like the Impulse Gundam.
For this event, the popular product "METAL BUILD Destiny Gundam", originally released years ago, is being re-released as a limited commemorative item. It boasts a cool design distinct from the original anime, along with some original weapon mechanisms. Its sharp, devil-like lines and powerful Wings of Light, crafted with organic curves, are particularly striking. While product information has not yet been fully disclosed, differences from previous releases can be observed in the paint scheme and modifications to the various markings across the body. Detailed product information will be revealed at a later date.
