PG 1/60 MS-06S Char's Zaku II
Product Overview
From Mobile Suit Gundam, the legendary MS-06S Char's Zaku II joins Bandai Spirits' Perfect Grade lineup as one of the most iconic Zeon mobile suits ever created. Designed as a custom commander-type unit for Char Aznable, this massive 1/60 scale model kit features a highly detailed internal frame, extensive mechanical detailing, and numerous opening armor panels that reveal the machine's inner workings. As one of the earliest Perfect Grade releases, the kit established many of the engineering standards that would define the premium Gunpla line for years to come.
The model incorporates a movable mono-eye system, individually articulated fingers, exposed hydraulic mechanisms, and a layered armor structure designed to simulate a real maintenance-access mobile suit. Char's signature red color scheme, enhanced thruster systems, and commander antenna are faithfully recreated, making this kit an impressive centerpiece for Universal Century collectors and fans of the "Red Comet."

More Info
About MS-06S Char's Zaku II
The MS-06S Char's Zaku II is a custom high-performance commander unit piloted by Char Aznable during the One Year War. Modified from the standard Zaku II platform, the machine features enhanced thrusters, improved mobility, and a distinctive red color scheme that earned Char the nickname "The Red Comet." Throughout Mobile Suit Gundam, Char's Zaku became one of the most recognizable mobile suits in anime history, capable of achieving speeds far beyond those of standard production models. Its battles against Amuro Ray and the RX-78-2 Gundam helped establish the rivalry that would define much of the Universal Century timeline.
