Features

This model utilizes the solid inner frame and wide range of articulation from the MG MS-07B Gouf Ver. 2.0. The distinctive features of M'Quve's version are achieved with several newly molded parts, including a spear-like commander's antenna, sections of the side leg armor, and a modified shield. A key feature is the included "special engraving seals"—decals with physical relief—to recreate the mobile suit's lavish gold engravings, providing a texture and finish superior to traditional decals.

Mobile Suit Overview

MS-07B Gouf (M'Quve Custom)

The MS-07B Gouf was developed by the Zeonic company as a high-performance terrestrial mobile suit intended to succeed the MS-06J Zaku II. It surpassed its predecessor in power, speed, and armor, specializing in close-quarters combat. However, its high production cost and the introduction of the more versatile MS-09 Dom limited its manufacturing, leading to it being assigned primarily to veteran pilots and commanders.

Colonel M'Quve's unit is a customization of a standard model. True to his vain and flamboyant personality, M'Quve prioritized aesthetics over combat functionality. The mobile suit was decorated with intricate gold engravings and an ornamental command antenna, turning a weapon of war into a symbol of his opulence and aristocratic status within the Principality of Zeon. This customization is a direct reflection of the pilot, who valued style and "elegance" in battle above pragmatic military effectiveness.
