The PFF-X7II+/P9 Plutine Gundam (プルタインガンダム Purutain gandamu?) is a Gunpla introduced in Gundam Build Metaverse. A variant of the Core Gundam II Plus, it is built and piloted by Hiroto Kuga.
Technology & Combat Characteristics[]
A dueling version of Hiroto's Core Gundam II Plus formed by docking it with the Pluto Armor.[1][2] When Hiroto learned about Ecopla, a project which utilizes recycled materials, he saw a connection between it and Pluto, the planet of destruction and regeneration.[1][2] This inspired him to create the ninth unit of the PLANETS System.[1][2] The exterior of the unit utilizes the specially coated "EP Armor".[1][2] This black-colored armor can convert kinetic energy released by the unit as well as from nearby enemy into supplemental energy, allowing for significant improvement in combat sustainability.[1][2] The combination of the EP Armor with equipment specialized for hand-to-hand combat, makes the Plutine Gundam suited for repeating destruction and regeneration in close-range battles.[2]
Armaments[]
- Infortune Scyzer
- The Plutine Gundam's main weapon and its dedicated close-range equipment.[2] It is a scythe with high cutting capability and can be used as a long spear by folding down the scythe blade.[2] This alternate form of the Infortune Scyzer is also called "Lance Form".[3]
- Breaklow Feather
- Stabilizer units equipped to both shoulders, used for both offense and defense.[2] They can be used in conjunction with the highly tempered blade parts on the legs, allowing for offense and defense capabilities that are refined and acute.[2] They can also be deployed as shuriken-like remote-controlled weapons, or attached to the forearms for use as claw-like weapons.[2]
- Beam Saber
- Stored on the back of the Plutine Gundam, the pair of Beam Sabers are the same weapon as the Core Sabers used by the Core Gundam II Plus. However, the length of their beam blade is increased when used by the Plutine Gundam.
Special Equipment & Features[]
- PLANETS System
- Like the original Core Gundam II, the Core Gundam II Plus can make use of the PLANETS System to dock with parts, named after the planets of the Solar System and carried on support machines, to form Gundams with varied equipment, characteristics and performance. This change can be done even during combat, with the Plutine Gundam using the Pluto Armor carried on the Core Hangar II.
- EP Armor
- The black armor of the Plutine Gundam, the EP Armor is made from Ecopla and has a special coating.[2][3] It can convert surplus kinetic energy released by the unit, as well as kinetic energy from nearby opponents, into supplemental energy and this resulted in significantly improved combat sustainability.[2]
