The "SCP-001 Gate Guardian" is a unique reimagining of the Wing Gundam Zero EW model, standing as a massive figure armed with dazzling, unearthly armament. This custom GunPla depicts the humanoid being described in SCP lore, standing around 700 cubits tall and set in a dramatic tableau that suggests its mythological location near the Tigris and Euphrates rivers.

The model has a set of wing-like extensions made from modified third-party Wing Gundam Zero wings, which give it an image similar to the Gate Guardian's said brilliance. The model also wields a Device Exia sword that has been modified to appear to be generating flames at extremely high temperatures, replicating the severe heat stated in the SCP description.

The vignette is as important as the model itself, creating a mysterious setting that enhances the story. The environment depicts the hidden place alluded to in the SCP files, using artistic renderings of ancient Mesopotamian settings. The vignette expertly mixes water effects to simulate neighboring rivers, while subtle lighting heightens the Guardian's foreboding presence.
