BANDAI SPIRITS Non-Scale Action Figure METAL BUILD METAL BUILD FA-93-ν2HWS Hi-ν Gundam Heavy Weapons System Type Option Set [METAL BUILD EXPO] from Mobile Suit Gundam: Char's Counterattack - Beltorchika's Children

The Heavy Weapon System (HWS), designed for compatibility with both “METAL BUILD Hi-ν Gundam” releases, is now available as an impressive expansion set that enhances the mobile suit’s already iconic presence. Supporting both the standard edition and the “METAL BUILD Hi-ν Gundam [METAL BUILD EXPO]” version (with some minor specification differences), this system introduces a dramatic upgrade in both firepower and visual impact.

At the core of the HWS are its signature armaments, including the Hyper Mega Rifle and the High Mega Shield. These large-scale weapons are complemented by a wide array of additional armor and equipment parts, each featuring intricate deployment gimmicks. When fully equipped, the Hi-ν Gundam gains a heavier, more commanding silhouette that emphasizes its role as a high-performance combat unit.

The chest armor is particularly detailed, incorporating molded missiles hidden within an opening hatch, adding both realism and play value. The shoulder units are outfitted with missile launchers that include an elevation mechanism, allowing them to adjust their angle—an especially dynamic feature when posed in mid-flight or propulsion scenarios. Meanwhile, the front skirt armor houses two distinct types of warheads, which can be revealed by opening the hatch and converting the unit into firing mode.

Further enhancing the system, the leg armor doubles as thruster units and contains built-in missile gimmicks that can retract and rotate, showcasing the engineering depth of the design. As a unique feature original to the METAL BUILD line, beam sabers are stored on both sides of the leg units, adding both convenience and visual flair. The Hyper Mega Rifle, which attaches to the main rifle, includes deployable support features such as a bipod and foregrip, reinforcing its role as a powerful long-range weapon.

Altogether, the Heavy Weapon System delivers a comprehensive upgrade that blends aesthetic bulk with mechanical complexity, making it a standout addition for collectors and fans of the Hi-ν Gundam.

FA-93-ν2HWS Hi-ν Gundam Heavy Weapons System Type

The FA-93-ν2HWS Hi-ν Gundam Heavy Weapons System Type is a heavily armored variation of the RX-93-ν2 Hi-ν Gundam, designed to emphasize overwhelming firepower and defensive capability. By equipping the already advanced Hi-ν Gundam with an extensive array of additional weapons and armor, this configuration transforms the mobile suit into a battlefield powerhouse. The added equipment typically includes large missile pods, enhanced beam weaponry, and reinforced shielding, allowing it to engage multiple targets at long range while maintaining strong protection against incoming attacks.

Despite its impressive design, the Heavy Weapons System Type has not appeared in any official Gundam storyline and exists primarily as a model kit configuration. Fans can recreate this variant by combining the MG RX-93-ν2 Hi-ν Gundam “Ver. Ka” with the Bandai Hobby Exclusive Heavy Weapons System expansion set. This makes it a popular choice among collectors and builders who enjoy customizing mobile suits, offering a glimpse into a “what-if” scenario where the Hi-ν Gundam is pushed to its absolute combat limits.

METAL BUILD Mobile Suit Gundam: Char's Counterattack - Beltorchika's Children

Bandai’s Gunpla METAL BUILD line brings a premium, collector-focused interpretation to the world of Mobile Suit Gundam, and the Char’s Counterattack – Beltorchika’s Children version stands out as a striking example of this craftsmanship. Inspired by the alternate novelization of the classic story, this figure captures a more refined and detailed aesthetic compared to standard releases. The design emphasizes sharper panel lines, layered armor segments, and a sophisticated metallic finish that enhances its realism. With die-cast components integrated into the structure, the model offers both visual weight and durability, giving it a presence that feels closer to a high-end display piece than a traditional plastic kit.

What truly elevates this METAL BUILD release is its attention to articulation and accessories. The figure is engineered for dynamic posing, allowing fans to recreate iconic battle stances with stability and precision. It typically includes a range of weaponry and interchangeable parts, reflecting the narrative depth and mechanical nuance of the Beltorchika’s Children storyline. For collectors and Gundam enthusiasts, this piece represents more than just a model—it’s a fusion of engineering, design, and storytelling that celebrates an alternate vision of one of the franchise’s most iconic conflicts.
