P-Bandai: MG 1/100 Kampfer Schwer
Release Date: August 2023 [3rd Batch Release: March 2024]
Price: 6,270 Yen

Professional GunPla modeler Naoki's latest entry to the Genius Head Line series makes it to the Premium Bandai Master Grade Gunpla lineup! The custom kit is based on the 2001 MG 1/100 Kamfer kit with great amount of newly molded parts to portray Naoki's custom "SCHWER" design.


The kit was first teased on the latest Dengeki Hobby magazine that was released on January 26th which also features more of Naoki's latest GunPla builds, along with other pro Japanese modelers.

Schwer translates as "heavy" in German.

Kampfer Schwer shares a few of its molds from the MG 1/100 Kampfer with customized parts based from Naoki's take to create the SCHWER version of the mobile suit. 

HEAD
  • Following the image of the base kit Kampfer, the voluminous parietal parts and antenna are presented with new parts.
CHEST
  • The design of the chest armor has also been changed, giving it a more edgy appearance.
ARMS
  • Changed the shoulder armor to a new design. The left forearm has a new joint that can suspend its Sturm Faust accessory.

BACKPACK
  • The bazooka rack is connected to a new joint above, allowing the barrel of the bazooka to tilt horizontally! A new control stabilizer is also included. 
FEET
  • The design of the ankle part has been revied, featuring additional armor and thrusters, making it a more radical design.
Accessories and armament include the following:

Shotgun x 2 / Giant Bazooka x 2 / Sturm Faust x 2 / Beam Saber x 2
The kit is also packed with custom water slide decals which include Kokuyo's emblem for its left shoulder armor.

  1. This looks like another case of new outer armor, old inner frame, but it's the Kampfer so I'm not complaining.

  2. I hope it is at least another 1.5-like kit where they update parts of the frame like they did with the Dwadge/Dom and the Re-GZ/Re-GZ Custom. The Kämpfer is a pretty decent kit, it just needs some updating. If it is this, then hopefully an actual 1.5 version of the 0080 Kämpfer comes out soon.

    1. That would be nice. Inserting metal screws into load-bearing plastic joints is not appealing to me.

  3. I've been hoping to see a Kampfer 2.0 and a P-Bandai of the Prototype Kampfer, but this looks cool and maybe it will just be an early glimpse of a 1.5 version.

    1. That is my thought as well. The Dwadge gave us the 1.5 parts of the Dom, hopefully this is the same deal.
