The ASW-G-61 Gundam Zagan carries a heavy history. Originally piloted by Arzona Issue during the Calamity War, it remained sealed away for centuries. It now resurfaces under the control of Lond Bron, a former elite guard of Carta Issue.

Key Gimmick: Shield Pliers Unit
The Shield Pliers Unit defines this kit. These massive pliers feature a fully functional deployment gimmick, allowing them to open and close seamlessly. The front of the shoulder armor moves independently to ensure the arms have a full range of motion despite the bulk of the equipment.
