Take control of one of ZAFT’s most memorable mobile suits with this updated version of the ZGMF-X2000 Gouf Ignited, developed by Bandai Spirits.
This High Grade (HG) kit pays tribute to the charismatic pilot Heine Westenfluss by featuring his distinctive bright orange and brick-red colour scheme. The aggressive design is characterised by imposing angular lines, wide, pointed shoulder pads and large dorsal thrusters fitted with movable wings to simulate high-speed aerial combat.
A formidable and articulated close-quarters combat arsenal:
The Gouf Ignited is famous for its devastating close-quarters combat equipment. The kit includes the flexible Slayer Whip thermal whip, its trusty high-energy Tempest sword—which stows directly inside the armoured shield—as well as integrated 4-barrel rotating cannons on each forearm.
Dynamic posing engineering:
Thanks to Bandai’s versatile joints and ball-joint system, the model can recreate the series’ iconic flight and combat poses. The dorsal wings deploy smoothly to adjust the robot’s wingspan during display modes.
