Features
The "Kuroi Ōyoroi" edition stands out with its special finishes. The main armor uses black as the dominant tone. For accents, various armor pieces employ a red chrome plating treatment for a brilliant, mirror-like finish. Other parts, such as the weapon blades, are made with silver metallic injection plastic—a technique that incorporates metal particles directly into the material to give it an inherent shine.

The red chrome and washi-style decals create a unique look. Image via P-Bandai.
Additionally, the kit includes special "Wa" (traditional Japanese) style decals that simulate the texture of washi paper.

Mobile Suit Overview: Shin Musha Gundam
The Shin Musha Gundam first appeared as a secret unit in the 2007 video game Dynasty Warriors: Gundam. The design was developed by renowned mechanical designer Hajime Katoki, who adapted the pre-existing "Samurai Gundam" concept from the SD Gundam sub-franchise into his signature realistic "Ver. Ka" style. The design merges the engineering of a mobile suit with the aesthetics of traditional samurai armor, specifically the Ō-yoroi of feudal Japan. Components like the helmet (kabuto), shoulder pads (sode), and armor skirts (kusazuri) are direct reinterpretations of historical armor, resulting in a distinctive and robust silhouette that defines the unit's visual identity.
