Revision as of 06:51, 16 December 2018

Template:Infobox/Mobile Weapon Ver.2The amazon.co.jp A-Z Gundam is a Gunpla appearing in Gundam Build Fighters: Battlogue. Based on the MSZ-006 Zeta Gundam, it was built and piloted by Tatsuya Yuuki.

Technology & Combat Characteristics

A new Gunpla created by Tatsuya for his overseas tour as the Meijin Kawaguchi III.[1][2] Based on the MSZ-006 Zeta Gundam from the Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam anime series, the A-Z Gundam’s design maximizes its firepower and propulsion, while retaining the base machine’s ability to transform into the Wave Rider mode.[1][2] Utilizing this mechanism, the Gunpla can conduct phantasmagoric high-speed combat that is a perfect embodiment of the Meijin’s battle style.[1] Like the Zeta Gundam, A-Z Gundam’s Wave Rider mode can be used for atmospheric re-entry.[2]

The A-Z Gundam incorporates many of the latest technologies in the world of Gunpla Battles, such as the Yajima Trading’s newly developed anti-particle paint.[1][2] Its armor is also thick enough to withstand shots from Vulcan guns, and its speed is noted to be six times faster than the original.[2] The overall performance of this Gunpla has reached unfathomable levels.[1] The A-Z Gundam’s name means “from A to Z”, and was chosen to help communicate to the entire world the appeal of all Gundams.[1] This is also linked to the Gunpla’s concept as a unit for the overseas tour.[1]

Armaments

  • Twin Hyper Mega Launcher
A pair of portable firearms based on the Zeta Gundam’s hyper mega launcher.[1] When held in hands, they can be used for suppressive fire over a wide range, and via combination in a bottom-to-bottom manner, they become a powerful final battle use weapon that is directly powered by the generator.[1] This combined form destroys the asteroid base, Luna II, in one shot.
  • Prime Cannon Mode
Through connecting the twin hyper mega launchers separately to the flying boosters on the Gunpla’s back, a long distance firing mode with maximum firepower is achieved.[1][2] Tatsuya shouts ‘Prime Cannon Shoot’ when firing the launchers in Prime Cannon mode.[2] In Wave Rider mode, it acts as the nose of the Gunpla and can be fired as well.[1]
  • A-Z Beam Saber Shield
Mounted on the left forearm, it is for both offense and defense.[1] Though its defense area is limited, regular attacks will not be able to leave a fine scratch on its mirror finish surface thanks to the anti-particle paint.[1] A large beam saber can be generated from the shield’s tip, and when it is used as a ramming weapon during Wave Rider mode, it reminds one of the Zeta Gundam’s final attack during its fight with PMX-003 The-O.[1][2]
  • Beam Saber
The A-Z Gundam has a pair of beam sabers, which are fairly standard close range beam weapon used by mobile suits.[1] However, in the hands of Tatsuya who is nicknamed ‘Crimson Comet’, its power is more than tripled.[1]
  • Vulcan Gun
The A-Z Gundam has four Vulcan guns, two on the shoulders and two below the chest vents.[2] Usable in Wave Rider and Mobile Suit mode.[2]

History

Tatsuya Yuuki built the A-Z Gundam for an overseas tour, but before that he battled Sei Iori and his Build Strike Galaxy Cosmos. After a fierce fight that ended in a draw, with both Gunplas badly damaged, Sei wonders if it was a good idea to wreck the A-Z Gundam so close to his overseas tour. Tatsuya admits it wasn't, and immediately got to fixing it at the shop. Sei realizes that he fought him to make the A-Z Gundam better, and described it as "rebirth from destruction", causing Tatsuya to wonder if he was trying to be witty.
