Gundam Build Fighters (ガンダムビルドファイターズ Gandamu Birudo Faitāzu?) is a 2013 Japanese science fiction anime television series based on Sunrise's long-running Gundam franchise. The series is directed by Kenji Nagasaki of No. 6 and written by Yōsuke Kuroda of Mobile Suit Gundam 00. Both character designs were done by both Kenichi Ohnuki and Suzuhito Yasuda.

While not set in the same universe, Gundam Build Fighters is an expansion of a concept that started with Model Suit Gunpla Builders Beginning G.

Trivia

  • Gundam Build Fighters beats After War Gundam X for being the most shortest Gundam series ever aired in Television, only having a total of 25 Episodes.
  • Of all the Gundam Series and Spinoffs included as references, some series such as Mobile Suit Gundam AGE are not included due to licensing issues with other companies (AGE is co-owned by Sunrise and Level-5) and licensing these series to appear in the series, even as cameos is very costly.
