MGSD 00 Raiser - Release Info

MGSD 00 Raiser

Release: March 2027

Price: 6,050 yen

The next mobile suit joining the MGSD lineup is ready to fire up its Twin Drive System. Bandai has officially revealed the MGSD 00 Raiser, bringing one of Mobile Suit Gundam 00’s most popular mobile suits into the Master Grade SD series.

The GN-0000 00 Gundam was Celestial Being’s first mobile suit equipped with the Twin Drive System, using two original GN Drives synchronized to generate an enormous amount of GN Particle output. The system was incredibly powerful, but it came with one major problem. The 00 could not fully stabilize the Twin Drive System on its own, especially when activating Trans-Am.

That is where the 0 Raiser came in.

Designed as a dedicated support machine for the 00, the 0 Raiser could dock with the Gundam to form 00 Raiser, stabilizing the Twin Drive System and allowing its full performance to be unleashed. The combination was so powerful that its capabilities went beyond what had previously been expected from a Gundam.

Now, 00 Raiser is getting the MGSD treatment, combining its recognizable design with the dense mechanical detail and articulation that have become a major part of the series.

The kit recreates the combination between the 00 Gundam and the 0 Raiser while using MGSD’s unique frame structure to reproduce internal mechanical detail within its SD proportions. The result is a compact kit that still aims for a wide range of movement across its various parts.

The shoulder-mounted GN Drives also feature MGSD-original gimmicks. They can rotate and expose their clear parts, adding extra mechanical movement to one of the 00 Gundam’s most recognizable features.

The 0 Raiser gets some special treatment too, with a reflection-cut exposure gimmick that adds another layer of detail to its clear parts.

Even the smaller lens components have been given plenty of attention. Parts such as the GN capacitors feature precise molded details, including engraved lettering.

As for its equipment, the MGSD 00 Raiser comes loaded with two GN Sword IIs, the massive GN Sword III, two GN Shields, and two GN Beam Sabers. Dedicated beam effect parts are included for both the GN Sword II and GN Sword III.

The GN Sword II and GN Shield also feature their own connection gimmick, allowing the equipment to be displayed in its combined configuration.

With its transforming and combining 0 Raiser, detailed internal frame, MGSD-exclusive GN Drive gimmicks, and a full loadout of equipment, the MGSD 00 Raiser is shaping up to be another packed release for the series.

And with Mobile Suit Gundam 00 celebrating its 20th anniversary, 00 Raiser is arriving at a pretty perfect time.
