History
Neo England's GF13-003NEL John Bull Gundam was a suit built for a champion. In fact, Gentle Chapman won the 9th, 10th and 11th Gundam Fights consecutively, which gave Neo England control over the United Colonies Federation from FC 40 through FC 56. Chapman's three time winning streak ended when he was defeated in FC 56 during the 12th Gundam Fight. While the John Bull Gundam was equipped with the standard complement of head vulcans and machine cannons, it was designed to take full advantage of Chapman's sharpshooting skills to bring him back on the path to victory. Its main weapon was a powerful long beam rifle that Chapman could use to accurately shoot his enemy from a distance.

Despite                   his skills and his previous victories, Chapman's body took a                    beating from his many battles, and as a result he became addicted                    to stimulants to keep him in focus. His wife Manon decided to                   secretly help him by cheating during the Gundam Fights. She                   set up an elaborate system of fog machines and used remote-controlled                      MET6-MS Casshing mobile suits to wear                    down enemies so that Chapman could finish them off. Neo France's                   George de Sand was defeated in such a manner, and he warned                    Neo Japan's Domon Kasshu of the danger. During a battle with                   Chapman, Domon's GF13-017NJ Shining                    Gundam nearly fell victim to the same tactics, but Domon                    was assisted by George and able to defeat Chapman. Despite being                   disqualified by losing his Gundam's head, Chapman was later                    allowed to enter the Gundam Fight Finals with another disqualified                    Fighter, Neo Italy's Michelo Chariot. By this time Chapman had                   become a mindless minion of the JDG-00X                    Devil Gundam, and his John Bull Gundam could transform into                    the ridiculously huge Grand Gundam,                    which became a menace to both Domon and George.
