Bandai is set to release the collectible toy “Gundam Artifact PRO High Mobility Zaku II (Black Tri-Stars Specification),” expanding the premium “Artifact” series that has been available since 2021. This new “professional-grade” line features articulated model kits constructed from plastic and alloy materials, standing approximately 100 mm tall. Designed with an industrial product-inspired interpretation of the MS (Mobile Suit), the model incorporates movable mechanisms that operate in conjunction with cylinder-like joint structures, enhancing both realism and articulation.

As the first release in the Gundam Artifact PRO lineup, the High Mobility Zaku II (Black Tri-Stars Specification) comes equipped with an impressive range of weapon accessories, including a Zaku machine gun, Zaku bazooka, and multiple magazines. The kit also features a dedicated mounting gimmick integrated into the main body, allowing for versatile display options and equipment attachment. Each package contains one pre-painted, semi-finished model kit along with one piece of soda-flavored gum. The main body is made from ABS and alloy materials, while select components are produced using PVC. Distribution is handled by the Bandai Candy Division.

What is Gundam Artifact PRO?

Bandai introduces the Gundam Artifact PRO series as a premium evolution of its highly popular collectible model kit lineup. Combining intricate mechanical detailing with a compact display size, the series is designed for collectors and hobby enthusiasts who appreciate professional-grade craftsmanship in a small-scale format. Each model features a stylized industrial interpretation of the Mobile Suit design, enhanced with layered armor structures, metallic alloy components, and advanced articulation systems that allow for dynamic posing despite the compact approximately 10 cm size.

The Gundam Artifact PRO lineup also emphasizes display quality and engineering innovation, offering pre-painted, semi-finished kits that balance accessibility with collector appeal. Signature releases such as the Full Armor Gundam showcase unique transformation gimmicks, allowing exterior armor parts to be removed to reveal the standard Gundam configuration underneath. Manufactured using ABS, alloy, and select PVC components, the series delivers a premium texture and mechanical realism that distinguish it from traditional Gunpla kits, making it a standout addition to the expanding world of Gundam collectibles.
