Mobile Suit Gundam 00V (機動戦士ガンダム00V Kidou Senshi Gandamu 00V?) (V for Variations) is a side story of Mobile Suit Gundam 00 serialized by Hobby Japan and later compiled into a single book. Initially, it's presented to the reader as chapters of a mobile suit development book published 20 years after the main story/anime, but this was later changed to a short story format. Each chapter also includes photo guides of the featured mobile suit. It ran in Hobby Japan from December 2007 to December 2009 and was continued by Mobile Suit Gundam 00V: Battlefield Record.

Original Characters

Robert Spacey - He studies the developmental history of MS. He was initially studying political history, but after experiencing the revolution brought by Celestial Being when he was 30 years old and coincidentally seeing the Avalanche Exia in action, he switched his study to MS development history.

Deborah Galiena - A female mobile suit pilot of the UN inspection team who became an old acquaintance of Robert Spacey. She is a skilled mobile suit pilot, able to fight against Gundam Exia and survive the battle uninjured.

Amy Zimbalist - An ace pilot of the Earth Sphere Federation Army with an unconventional style of piloting solar furnace equipped mobile suits. He is worshiped as a hero known as the "Steel Cowboy", but also hated as the "Devil of Unification".

Story

The 00V features different variations of the Mobile Suit from the series, and provides the stories about them in every chapter ("volumes"). The earlier stories of the 00V were told from Robert Spacey's perspective based on his encounters with different mobile suits during the height of Celestial Being's armed interventions. The perspective of the stories later shifts to different characters, providing their side of the story behind the development and the operation of some of the mobile suits given in 00V.

Volume 01
Feature Mobile Suit: GN-001/hs-A01 Gundam Avalanche Exia

Robert Spacey talks about the Avanche Exia, a unit that was seen relatively early during Celestial Being's armed interventions. Robert recalls witnessing the Avalanche Exia in action during a UN inspection of Union army. Avalanche Exia's appearance inspired Robert to study about the history of Mobile Suit Development.

Volume 02
Featured Mobile Suit: GN-002/DG014 Gundam Dynames Torpedo

Robert talks about the disadvantages of mobile suit's humanoid design in an underwater combat; an obstacle that Dynames Torpedo managed to sidestep. Robert recounts seeing the Dynames Torpedo by chance during his plan to visit Deborah Galiena in a nearby island resort from the HRL Tenchu (Heaven's Pillar).

Volume 03
Featured Mobile Suit: SVMS-01SG Union Flag Ground Package Shell Type

Robert briefly talks about the development of SVMS-01 Union Flag. Among its variants, Robert introduced the Shell Flag, which he had the opportunity to see up close back in 2308 AD. During that time, he was meeting Deborah who was inspecting the military equipment at the Okinawa Base. While piloting the Shell Flag, Deborah encountered the Gundam Exia.
