Premium Bandai collaborates with Kadokawa's Gundam Hobby Life to bring a standout model to the Reborn 100 (RE/100) GunPla series: the Gundam Lindwurm. This model is more than simply another addition to the huge universe of Gundam plastic models; it is a unique combination of creativity and engineering, brought to life by the renowned mecha designer NAOKI.




Originally featured in Volume 19 of Gundam Hobby Life, the Gundam Lindwurm was a masterwork created by NAOKI, a name famous with inventive mecha design. This custom Gundam goes beyond its fictional limitations by being modeled in real life before being immortalized in the Gundam Build Divers side story, Genius Head Line. Here, it was piloted by the solo diver "Mito Kogure," providing layers of narrative richness to its existence.

The main body of this kit shares molds with the RE/100 Bawoo, and the head component is from Zeta Gundam. NAOKI developed and directed the overall design as well as the decals.

At its core, the Gundam Lindwurm is a creative reimagining of the AMX-107 Bawoo. However, it has undergone major changes to more closely resemble the MSZ-006 Zeta Gundam, reflecting the Bawoo's ancestry. The improvements center on increasing mobility and aerial maneuverability in its Mobile Suit form, making it a formidable addition to any GunPla collection.

The Gundam Lindwurm is not just about its sleek design; it comes equipped with a range of accessories that elevate its appeal:

Beam Rifle: A staple in Gundam armaments, providing the Lindwurm with long-range attack capabilities.

Shield: Essential for defense, allowing the Lindwurm to protect itself from enemy fire.

External Propellant Tanks: These tanks augment the Gundam Lindwurm's operational range, ensuring it can sustain prolonged engagements. Two are placed on its backpack.

The Gundam Lindwurm als distinguishes itself with its innovative transformation and docking systems, splitting into two distinct forms:

Lindwurm Attacker: This form combines the torso, arms, head, backpack, and weaponry into a singular offensive unit. Its transformation enhances mobility and offensive power, making it a high-speed attacker that can deliver devastating blows.

Lindwurm Nutter: Serving as the transformed lower body of the Gundam Lindwurm, the Lindwurm Nutter operates as an independent combat drone. It showcases remarkable autonomy, capable of executing missions solo or enhancing the main unit's combat effectiveness.

  4. I like it. I am definitely going to get it. Doesn't the shield go on the rear of the Bawoo Attacker? It is weird that they didn't keep it that way for this one. Still, looks really good.
