$64.99 Original price was: $64.99.$58.49Current price is: $58.49.
The GAT-X370 Raider Gundam is a second-generation GAT-X series Mobile Suit developed by the Earth Alliance in a joint venture with the Azrael Conglomerate. The GAT-X370 Raider Gundam utilizes the same X300 series frame as the GAT X-303 Aegis Gundam, allowing the Mobile Suit to transform into a powerful Mobile Armor. The Mobile Armor Form significantly improves the GAT-X370 Raider Gundam’s thrust and maneuvering capabilities, enabling atmospheric flight for an extended period. While in Mobile Armor Form, the GAT-X370 Raider Gundam could serve as a sub-flight unit for other Mobile Suits without full atmospheric flight capabilities. The GAT-X370 Raider Gundam first sortied alongside the GAT-X131 Calamity Gundam and the GAT-X252 Forbidden Gundam during the Battle of Orb.
Included alongside the Full Mechanics Raider Gundam for accessories:
- Dual 52mm Hyper-Velocity Shield Cannon
- “Mjollnir” Hammer
- Display Base for “Mjollnir” Hammer
- Landing Gear
- Sub-Flight Adapter x2
- Action Base Adapter
Articulation –
The Full Mechanics Raider Gundam borrows several frame parts from the previously released Full Mechanics 1/100 GAT-X131 Calamity Gundam but primarily utilizes newly-molded pieces that allow a complete transformation into Mobile Armor Form! This model uses a combination of internal frame components and hollow armor parts, allowing Bandai to design the Full Mechanics Raider Gundam with many interesting gimmicks without a massive piece count. This model features double-jointed limbs and swiveling thighs, providing a wide range of motion to create dynamic poses. The Full Mechanics Raider Gundam features multiple locking mechanisms that help the model maintain its form while in Mobile Armor Mode.
Weapons and Other Notable Attributes –
The Full Mechanics Raider Gundam includes the Dual 52mm Hyper-Velocity Shield Cannon, a lightweight and small form-factor weapon designed for easy use during close-quarters combat. The Full Mechanics Raider Gundam also sorties with the “Mjollnir” Hammer, a unique handheld melee weapon with a massive flail head attached to a retractable wire. This model also features a small autocannon hidden inside its backpack that builders can deploy during Mobile Armor Form. Bandai provided a small transparent display base for attaching the “Mjollnir” Hammer.

Description
By implementing the technique of Top Coating, you can do a great deal to help preserve the longevity of your models. This process will protect the original plastic of your model kit and prepare it for any additional modeling techniques to follow.
You can drastically improve your results by making the details pop on the GAT-X370 Raider Gundam with Panel Lining. The simplest solution for this is Gundam Markers or Tamiya Panel Line Fluid. Making your own panel wash is always a great option too! It is always recommended to Topcoat with clear gloss beforehand, as some of the products commonly used for Panel Lining will degrade the untreated plastics over time.
Another way to keep adding detail is by applying Stickers/Marking Decals. Top Coating before application will help decals stick to the surface much better. Using Top Coat after application will help hide the seams on traditional sticker decals as well as waterslides. This additional step will also keep them from peeling over time. Using Decals is a great way to add an even greater level of detail to your scale models.
