Bandai MG YMS-15 Gyan
Product Info
About the Mobile Suit:
The YMS-15 Gyan is a unique mobile suit from the Universal Century timeline, first appearing in Mobile Suit Gundam. Designed by Zeon, the Gyan was developed as a rival to the MS-14 Gelgoog and was intended to be a melee-focused combat unit. Piloted by M'quve, a commander of Zeon forces, the Gyan was known for its distinctive knight-like design and specialized close-quarters combat capabilities. It is equipped with a beam saber and a shield that contains numerous hidden missile launchers, making it highly effective in close-range duels.
The Gyan's combat strategy relies heavily on its agility and its powerful melee weapon, the beam saber, which can cut through most mobile suits with ease. Its missile-loaded shield allows it to engage enemies from a distance before closing in for a decisive melee strike. With its medieval knight-inspired design, the Gyan stands out in the Zeon mobile suit lineup for both its appearance and its specialized role.
