The Gundam Epyon is a powerful Gundam Mobile Suit developed by Treize Khushrenada, former commander of OZ, using combat data from the OZ-00MS Tallgeese EW and the other Gundam units. The Gundam Epyon’s design incorporated a more dangerous version of the ZERO System known as the Epyon System, which is functionally identical to the ZERO System but forces the pilot to wear a special helmet. Treize believed that using ranged weaponry like the Wing Gundam’s Twin Buster Rifle was cowardly and opted to outfit the Gundam Epyon with an assortment of close-range weapons, even lacking Vulcan Cannons in its initial form. The Gundam Epyon’s loadout made it excellent at dueling Mobile Suits in one-on-one combat and could easily keep up with the other Gundam Units, as showcased in its battle with the Wing Zero. Like the Wing Gundam, the Gundam Epyon features a transformation into a high-speed Mobile Armor.
Included alongside the MG Gundam Epyon for accessories:
- Beam Sword
- Shield
- 1/100 Zechs Merquise Figure
- Action Base Adapter for MS
- Action Base Adapter for MA
Articulation –
The MG Gundam Epyon features a complete inner frame and a functioning cockpit hatch that reveals the 1/100 Zech Merquise seated within! When compared to the other MG Endless Waltz releases, the MG Gundam Epyon features an above-average piece count to provide a transformation into Mobile Armor Mode. This transformation combines moving frame elements and relocated parts to create a proportionate look in either form. The MG Gundam Epyon features double-jointed limbs and swiveling thighs, providing a wide range of motion to create dynamic poses. The Mobile Suit’s wings feature multiple articulated segments that unfurl for an excellent aerial display!
Weapons and Other Notable Attributes –
Unlike other Mobile Suits, the Gundam Epyon’s Beam Sword draws power directly from the Mobile Suit’s powerplant, allowing its pilot to fine-tune the beam’s length. The Beam Sword attaches to the Mobile Suit’s side skirt with a PVC wire. Builders can fit the sword within Epyon’s shield while in Mobile Armor mode. Each segment of Gundam Epyon’s Heat Rod articulates individually for a truly unique display.

This kit has amazing color, great articulation, great weapons and needs almost no panel lines. Everything about this kit is perfect. It’s almost worth buying a second for the flight transformation! A little back heavy with the wings, a stand is recommended for the best action poses.
