HGUC #19 MSM-07S Char’s ZGok

The MSM-07S Char’s ZGok is a lightly modified version of the standard MSM-07 Z’Gok featuring lighter armor and increased power output. Char Aznable used this Mobile Suit to infiltrate the Federation’s Jaburo Headquarters during the One Year War. The MSM-07S Char’s ZGOK uses the same molds as the Mass Production version of the MSM-07 Z’Gok released in 1999! All the weaponry mounts inside the Mobile Suit, so there are no additional accessories.

Articulation –

Building the MSM-07S Char’s Z’Gok will feel very different than most Gundam Model Kits. Zeon’s Amphibious MS all share a unique design language that allows for increased maneuverability while submerged. The midsection of the MSM-07S Char’s Z’Gok features two ball joints, allowing the Mobile Suit a small range of motion in any direction. Each segment of the arms and legs articulates separately by using a ball joint for each attachment point, giving the MSM-07S Char’s Z’Gok a more realistic feel, especially when striking a pose!

Weapons and Other Notable Attributes –

The MSM-07S Char’s Z’Gok’s head contains six 240mm missile launchers. These are not torpedos and are unlikely to hit their mark if fired underwater. These missiles launch vertically so the Z’Gok can surface and fire its payload without the risk of exposing itself. For close combat, the MSM-07S Char’s Z’Gok uses its Iron Nails. These are very powerful claws, which most famously destroyed an RGM-79 GM with one fatal blow to the torso. Hiding between the individually articulated Iron Nails are two Mega Particle Cannons with almost double the power output of the Beam Rifle used by the RX-78-2 Gundam.
