It’s known for its transformation ability, splitting into a core fighter, upper body, and lower body to form different combat vehicles. The ZZ Gundam features overwhelming firepower, including its high-output Hyper Mega Cannon, making it a force to be reckoned with in both close and long-range combat.

Designed by Hajime Katoki, this version retains the core elements of the original while adding modern detailing that elevates it to the next level of Gunpla craftsmanship.
