P-Bandai: RE/100 XM-01 Denan-Zon
Release Date: August 2026
Price: 3,300 yen

From Mobile Suit Gundam F91, the Crossbone Vanguard’s main mass-produced mobile suit, the Den’an-Zon, joins the RE/100 lineup. As a close-combat focused unit built for high mobility, it represents a major shift in mobile suit design during the late Universal Century.

Developed by the Crossbone Vanguard, the Den’an-Zon was designed with combat inside space colonies in mind. Its lightweight construction and high performance allowed it to outclass many Earth Federation mass-production units of its era, while its weaponry was tailored to reduce collateral damage without sacrificing effectiveness.


The kit recreates the Den’an-Zon’s distinctive proportions using newly sculpted parts, from its spiked shoulder armor to its large, protruding backpack. The shoulder binders feature movable joints that can fold inward, improving arm range of motion, while interchangeable head parts allow different sensor configurations to be displayed.

Its primary weapon, the Shot Lancer, reflects the machine’s close-range combat philosophy. The handle can be extended, and the tip can be detached to recreate its firing state. The included beam shield effect parts allow for a variety of defensive poses, while beam sabers can be stored under the rear skirt for added display accuracy. The beam shield itself, a relatively new technology at the time, provides strong protection as long as power is maintained, though its emitter remains a critical weak point.

Thanks to a flexible joint structure that combines multiple articulation points, the Den’an-Zon is capable of a wide range of motion. The torso, waist, and neck all contribute to dynamic posing, while the backpack includes movable sensors and thrusters. These features make it possible to recreate the iconic horizontal flight pose seen in the film, with the Shot Lancer raised in mid-attack.

As the foundation for later Crossbone Vanguard units, including the Den’an-Gei and Berga series, the Den’an-Zon stands as one of the defining mass-produced mobile suits of its time. Its arrival in RE/100 form brings that legacy into a larger scale with a focus on presence, articulation, and display.
