HG Seed R03 GAT-X103 Buster Gundam

The GAT-X103 Buster Gundam is one of four prototype Gundam Mobile Suits stolen from the Earth Alliance by ZAFT during the second year of the Bloody Valentine War. Like the other G-Project Mobile Suits, the GAT-X103 Buster Gundam features a unique loadout of fixed and handheld armaments designed to provide a significant advantage in a specific role. The Earth Alliance developed the GAT-X103 Buster Gundam for long-range artillery support, developing a series of specialized weaponry, including the 350mm Gun Launcher and the 94mm High-Energy Rifle. The GAT-X103 Buster Gundam’s pilot can use these weapons individually or combine them into two different configurations.

Included alongside the HG Buster Gundam for accessories:

• Action Base Adapter

Articulation –

The HG Buster Gundam is a rereleased version of the original HG SEED #04 Buster Gundam released in 2003 with a new color scheme, more accurately portraying its anime appearance. This model features double-jointed knees and swiveling thighs, providing a wide range of motion to create dynamic poses. The HG Buster Gundam includes a universal Action Base Adapter to help builders pose the model in an elevated state. This model features small sheets of color-correcting and marking stickers to help recreate the Mobile Suit’s on-screen appearance right out of the box!

Weapons and Other Notable Attributes –

The HG Buster Gundam features a 94mm Beam Cannon and a 350mm Gun Launcher attached to its waist-mounted sub-arms. Both weapons feature an articulated forward grip for added stability when firing with both manipulators. The 94mm Beam Cannon and the 350mm Gun Launcher both feature an additional manipulator grip that allows the HG Buster Gundam to fire both weapons simultaneously. Builders can also combine the 94mm Beam Cannon and the 350mm Gun Launcher into the Anti-Armor Shotgun. The HG Buster Gundam’s sub-arms can fold behind the Mobile Suit’s back to store the 94mm Beam Cannon and the 350mm Gun Launcher when not equipped.
