Megatrade Shop via Premium Bandai has officially listed the latest entry in the Machine Build 1/144 model series: a 1/144 scale Bud Carrier. This release commemorates the 30th anniversary of the iconic Mobile Fighter G Gundam, which first aired in Japan in 1994.

Note: This item will also be available for a limited time as a regular retail release.

This pre-painted, semi-finished model features partial assembly but does not include the "HGFC 1/144 Shining Gundam." The model is made from ABS plastic, stands approximately 135mm tall, and has a diameter of about 320mm. It is targeted at model builders aged 15 and above.

The Bud Carrier is a mobile fighter transport device used by Neo Japan, resembling a lotus flower bud. When its petal-like external armor is deployed, it reveals the mobile fighter inside. It can function as a sub-flight system and also serve as a mobile base or temporary lodging. The Bud Carrier played a crucial role in several pivotal moments during the 13th Gundam Fight, supporting Domon Kasshu and his Shining Gundam in key battles and psychological tests.
