Carta’s Graze Ritter made its debut at the end of Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans first season wielded by the leader of Gjallarhorn’s Outer Earth Orbit Regulatory Joint Fleet, Carta Issue. Carta’s Graze Ritter is a customized commander-type variant of Gjallarhorn’s Graze Ritter, designed as “peacekeeper” units for protecting the Earth-sphere. Gjallarhorn painted the Mobile Suits with a unique blue color scheme and provided a regal appearance with new shoulder armor and head crests. Carta’s Graze Ritter also features brilliant red accents to distinguish itself from Graze Ritters used by Carta’s subordinates, which feature white markings instead. Carta’s Graze Ritter is also a ground-type variant of the platform, featuring new thigh-mounted thrusters instead of the Standard Graze’s back-mounted thrusters.
Included alongside Carta’s Graze Ritter for accessories:
- GR-Hr01 Knight Blade
- GR-W01 120mm Rifle
- GR-H02 9.8m Battle Axe
Articulation –
Carta’s Graze Ritter uses the same internal structure as the Graze Standard Type, which provides a satisfying and straightforward build, even if you’ve assembled one already. You’ll find double-jointed knees, swiveling thighs, and chest articulation all made their way into the Graze Frame. While using the same internal frame to create a myriad of model kits may seem like purely cost-cutting, and it certainly does play into the low cost of the HG IBO lineup, this is in line with the Post-Disaster Timeline’s lore. You can combine this model kit with the HG IBO #15 Gundam Barbatos 6th Form to create the Graze Ritter Standard Type, substantially increasing the potential for customization! Carta’s Graze Ritter also includes optional thigh armor parts to replace the ground-type thrusters. You’ll also find the back-mounted thrusters from the Graze Standard Type bundled with this kit, allowing builders to create the Graze Ritter Space Type as well!
Weapons and Other Notable Attributes –
Carta’s Graze Ritter uses the Knight Blade as its primary weapon, adding to the Mobile Suit’s chivalrous appearance. The Graze Ritter used this blade in ceremonious appearances most of the time, accounting for its stylistic blade and hilt. The Knight Blade is equally as effective as the Graze’s standard Battle Axe, which Bandai included with this model too! Both Carta’s Graze Ritter and the Graze utilize the GR-W01 120mm Rifle to engage targets at a distance.
