Bandai Model Kit MG 1/100 MS-05B Zaku I
Infiltrate the origins of the Universal Century with the superior scale articulated model of the mythical MS-05B Zaku I. Derived from the very first animated series and the stories of the One Year War, this prestigious Master Grade (MG) scale model perfectly captures the retro, industrial and raw design of this pioneer of mass production in the Principality of Zeon. Designed by Bandai for Japanese culture and Gunpla enthusiasts, this 1/100 scale kit offers a remarkable mechanical engineering experience to enhance your collector's showcase.
True to the elite standards of the Master Grade range, this mobile robot is designed around a complete articulated skeleton (Inner Frame) with a high level of mechanical engineering. The plates of its olive green and navy blue outer armour fit precisely onto this mechanical chassis, highlighting the machine's historic appearance and robustness. The cockpit in the torso opens to reveal the miniature figure of the pilot at the controls, making this model an ideal display piece to add lasting value to your collection.
