Product Info
About the Mobile Suit:
The Raider Gundam is a high-performance, transformable mobile suit from Mobile Suit Gundam SEED, developed by the Earth Alliance as part of their GAT-X series of prototype Gundams. Piloted by Clotho Buer, one of the Earth Alliance’s "biological CPU" pilots, the Raider Gundam stands out for its ability to transform into a flight mode, where it gains impressive speed and aerial combat capabilities. This mobile suit was designed for versatility, excelling in both close-quarters and long-range combat, while also being able to engage in devastating aerial maneuvers.
The Raider Gundam is armed with an array of powerful weapons, including a Zorn energy cannon mounted on its back, Mjolnir flail, and beam rifles, giving it a deadly combination of firepower and melee options. In its mobile suit form, the Raider Gundam is capable of high-speed combat, while in flight mode, it becomes a high-mobility assault unit, allowing it to cover ground and strike from above.
