A figure of the Great Zeong, which appears in the popular anime "Gundam" series game "SD Gundam G Generation," is generating buzz as it will be released as "ROBOT Spirits <SIDE MS> Great Zeong" from Bandai Spirits' "ROBOT Spirits" series. It is a legendary mobile armor that represents the culmination of the large mobile armors that symbolize the Principality of Zeon.
◇Composed of 4 units
The Great Zeong is considered a "phantom mobile suit" whose construction was planned but shelved due to the end of the One Year War. It appears in games but never in the anime series. While there are various variations of the Zeong, the Great Zeong is an extremely unique existence among them.
Its most distinctive feature is that it integrates the concepts and destructive power of famous mobile armors developed and operated by Zeon into one unit. The head and arms are composed of units from the Zeong, the shoulders and chest of the Apsaras III, the waist of the Big Zam, and the legs of the Bigro, making it truly the culmination of Zeon-type mobile armors.
The four units can separate and launch individual attacks. Each is equipped with a mega particle cannon, boasting extraordinary offensive power. The presence of a mono-eye on each unit is a design element typical of Zeon-type mobile suits. It has an all-powerful feel, as if it embodies "the strongest Zeong I could imagine," but it also strongly evokes the romance of "what if" scenarios, wondering if the tide of battle might have turned if it had been deployed in actual combat.
◇Four threats now intersect
The figure boasts an impressive size of approximately 28 centimeters in height, an exceptional size for the "ROBOT Spirits" series. It features a mechanism for separating and combining into four units, offering high play value. Die-cast metal is used in various parts to ensure stable display of its massive form. Furthermore, a dedicated base and support stand are included, allowing for display of each unit in its separated state.
The price is 35,200 yen. Pre-orders are being accepted at Bandai Namco Group's official shopping site, "Premium Bandai," with shipping scheduled for February 2027.
The tagline, "Four threats now intersect," is certainly true. This figure appears to be a masterpiece that embodies the romance of Zeon and exudes an overwhelming presence. (Manami Anima/MANTANWEB)
