HG00 #24 GN-006 Cherudim Gundam

The GN-006 Cherudim Gundam is a long-range sniper-type Mobile Suit developed by Celestial Being as the successor to the GN-002 Gundam Dynames. The GN-006 Cherudim Gundam benefits from improved accuracy and power output, outperforming its predecessor significantly. The GN-006 Cherudim Gundam retains the Dynames’ dedicated sniper mode, which utilizes the onboard Haro unit to increase its effectiveness in long-distance engagements. The Haro unit also controls the GN-006 Cherudim Gundam’s GN Shield Bits, which, unlike the Dynames’ fixed shields, can function remotely like the GNW-002 Gundam Throne Zwei‘s GN Fangs. The GN Shield Bits each feature a built-in beam gun, providing some offensive capability.

Included alongside the HG Cherudim Gundam for accessories:

• GN Sniper Rifle II
• GN Beam Pistol II
• GN Shield Bit x9
• Shield Bit Display Stand

Articulation –

The HG Cherudim Gundam features an entirely new construction supported by an array of polycaps, as this was the first rendition of this Mobile Suit in the High Grade Gundam 00 line! This model features double-jointed limbs and swiveling thighs, providing a wide range of motion to create dynamic poses. The HG Cherudim Gundam also features a built-in 3mm attachment point where builders can connect their preferred Action Base. Bandai provided 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 Cherudim Gundam includes the GN Sniper Rifle II as its primary weapon. The GN Sniper Rifle II features an articulated grip for the Mobile Suit’s off-hand for ultra-precise aiming. This weapon also features an alternate firing mode that builders can achieve by reattaching the barrel in reverse. The HG Cherudim Gundam also includes a pair of GN Beam Pistol IIs attached to its backpack when not equipped. These weapons feature folding handles to replicate their storage state without swapping parts. This model includes a transparent display stand that builders can use to display the GN Shield Bits in their combined form.
