BANDAI SPIRITS Hobby Division in Japan is set to release its latest product, the "MGSD Wing Gundam Zero EW", from the anime series "Mobile Suit Gundam Wing: Endless Waltz" on November 30, 2024. Ahead of its release, official new information, including the product's box art design and actual sample images, has been unveiled.
The "MGSD Wing Gundam Zero EW" integrates MG-grade part separation, color division, and articulation design into a 12 cm tall SD Gundam body. In addition to its high-density detailed sculpting, it utilizes new materials and articulation mechanisms, allowing the mobile suit's appearance to be constructed step-by-step from its internal movable frame. Realistic metallic gloss injection parts are used to achieve a metallic texture. Areas such as the sensors and twin-eye cameras employ a multi-layered structure to recreate intricate internal details beneath transparent covers, even reproducing fine structures like the Zero System within the cockpit.
The main body's articulation utilizes a multi-axis movable design, allowing the neck and torso sections to achieve significant forward bending and backward arching. The front skirt armor boasts over 90 degrees of upward articulation. Shoulder armor and knees also feature interlocking armor designs, enabling more natural poses such as high kneeling.
The most iconic feature of the Wing Gundam Zero EW, its angelic twin wings on the back, are connected by a seven-axis movable support, allowing them to freely swing and turn to various angles, recreating its atmospheric re-entry pose. The main wings adopt a substantial five-layer structure to express elegant feather-like curves and feature an original deployment mechanism. When the wings are deployed, internal silver frame parts and honeycomb-patterned clear parts with enhanced reflective effects are revealed.
In addition to the head's side components being able to deploy internal structures to recreate the "Zero System" activation state, the MGSD version also incorporates the "Neo Bird Mode" designed by KATOKI HAJIME for the Ver.Ka edition. This marks it as the first MGSD product to feature a transformation mechanism, capable of recreating both "Atmospheric Mode" and "Space Mode" forms through body transformation and main wing adjustments.
For weaponry, it includes the Twin Buster Rifle, shield, and beam saber. Leveraging the Ver.Ka design, sliding open the arm armor reveals connection points for the "Twin Buster Rifle." Securing the rifle enhances display stability, allowing for the recreation of classic scenes such as dual-wielding spinning shots and combining both rifles for maximum output firing.
