Premium Bandai has announced the release of Gundam Lfrith Jiu to celebrate the launch of the first episode of the Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch from Mercury's side story "Vanadis Heart" in Kadokawa's monthly Gundam ACE comic magazine.

The kit comes complete with its main weapon, Tiger's Hand. This weapon features a large hand-like piece that can shoot beams to its enemies, and its size is as long as the Gundam. It can also be holstered on its backpack when not in use, and as an additional booster.

Gundam Lfrith Jiu was illustrated by mechanical designer Kanetake Ebikawa based on Ryoji Kansai's concept. It is the main mobile suit of the Vanadis Heart. Its shell unit is installed and seen on its face.

The kit is provided with clear parts for its shell units installed on its face, shoulder, and chest armor plates, with optional activated shell unit stickers.
