The Bud Carrier is a transport capsule that appears in the TV anime Mobile Fighter G Gundam.
Overview[]
An mobile fighter transport device operated by Neo Japan. It looks like a lotus flower bud, and when the external armor corresponding to the petals is deployed, the mounted mobile fighter is revealed. It can also be operated like a sub-flight system. After descending to the ground, it was used as a base of operations for the Neo Japan team and sometimes as a temporary lodging for Domon Kasshu and Rain Mikamura.
History[]
After it was dropped to Domon in Neo Italy at the start of the 13th Gundam Fight, it was used as a means of transporting the Shining Gundam during Survival Eleven. During the final stage of Domon's deep psychological test, Rain activated it to support him and get between the Shining Gundam and Fantoma, giving Domon an opening to counterattack.
It was also used to transport the God Gundam to Domon in the Guiana Highlands, and when Domon went to rescue Rain who had been absorbed into the Devil Gundam, he attempted to leave the atmosphere using this machine while aboard the God Gundam, but it was destroyed by an attack from the Walter Gundam piloted by Wong Yunfat who appeared to interfere.
