Template:Infobox/Mobile Weapon Ver.2 The PFF-X7II/N8 Nepteight Gundam (ネプテイトガンダム?) is a Gunpla appearing in Gundam Build Divers Re:RISE. A variant of the PFF-X7II Core Gundam II, it is built and piloted by Hiroto Kuga.
Technology & Combat Characteristics
The Nepteight Gundam is the special cruising form of the Core Gundam II docked with the Neptune Armor through the PLANETS System. The special cruising units on its arms and back can be unfolded to activate Voiture Lumiere, the Stargazer Gundam's interplanetary propulsion system. The halo created by this unit leaves an everlasting trail that can be seen from all worlds.
Armaments
- Beam Gun
- The pair of special cruising units on the Nepteight Gundam's forearms are equipped with a Beam Gun each, allowing them to emit beams from their tips for self-defense.
- Beam Saber
- As the output of the Core Gundam II's Core Sabers have been improved, the performance of the Nepteight Gundam's Beam Sabers are enhanced as well. The pair of Beam Sabers are stored on the back when not in use.
Special Equipment & Features
- Voiture Lumiere
- An interplanetary propulsion system that uses powerful light pressure obtained through a special conversion of energy as its driving force. To activate the system, Nepteight Gundam has to spread its arms to the sides and the special cruising units mounted on the arms and back expand to transform into a large torus (ring-like) structure. A unique and bright ring of light is emitted as a by-product when the system is in use.
- PLANETS System
- Like the original Core Gundam, the Core Gundam II can make use of the PLANETS System to dock with support mechas named after various planets of the Solar System, changing its equipment, characteristics and performance. This change can be done even during mid-combat, with the Nepteight Gundam using the Neptune Armor.
