Bandai Gunpla HG 1/100 GT-9600-D Gundam Leopard Destroy from Mobile Suit Gundam X

The Bandai Gunpla Gundam Leopard Destroy faithfully recreates the heavily armed successor to the original Gundam Leopard from Mobile Suit Gundam X, delivering a model kit packed with firepower, transformation gimmicks, and mechanical detail. Designed for fans who enjoy artillery-focused mobile suits, the Leopard Destroy stands out with its overwhelming arsenal and rugged combat-oriented appearance.

Bandai captures the machine’s upgraded battlefield presence with impressive articulation and weapon functionality throughout the kit. One of its signature features, the twin beam cylinders mounted on the backpack, can connect to both arms, and their transformation mechanisms are fully reproduced for anime-accurate display options. This gives the model a dynamic heavy-weapons configuration that perfectly reflects its devastating combat role in the series.

The kit is loaded with interactive mechanical features that make building and posing especially enjoyable. The beam cannon mounted on the right shoulder is fully movable, while the left shoulder’s massive 11-tube missile pod includes opening and closing hatches for added realism. Additional opening gimmicks are found in the breast gatling gun and the Hornet missile units, giving the completed model an impressive layered mechanical look.

Further enhancing its combat-ready design, the forearm-mounted wrist beam cannons feature sliding deployment mechanisms, allowing builders to recreate attack poses straight from the anime. Metallic plated parts are included for the head antenna and chest details, adding a premium touch that contrasts beautifully against the kit’s armored frame.

The Gundam Leopard Destroy also comes equipped with a variety of weapons and accessories, including:

• A Heat Axe
• Separate missile parts
• A Beam Knife

Foil stickers are included to help complete the model with sharp color accuracy and extra detail straight out of the box.

With its intimidating weapon loadout, transforming arm systems, and abundance of opening hatches and moving parts, the Gundam Leopard Destroy is an exciting addition to any Mobile Suit Gundam X collection — especially for builders who love heavily armed mobile suits with strong mechanical presence.
