Snackgirls react
Kirari: I’d like to photograph the standard-color Gelgoog beside the two Calamities. Comparing their colors and silhouettes in the same frame sounds fun.
Red: I want to see how Sword’s close-combat gear is built, then dig into Aile’s flight module. Those are two very different kinds of hardware to explore.
A standard Gelgoog and two specialized Calamities
HG 1/144 Gelgoog Menace comes from Mobile Suit Gundam SEED FREEDOM, where the machine was developed as the Zaku Warrior’s successor. This kit reproduces the standard unit’s colors in molded plastic and includes a space-use pack; it is not the Lunamaria custom.
FULL MECHANICS 1/100 Sword Calamity Gundam, from Gundam SEED MSV, centers on close combat. Its dedicated equipment and portions of its exterior armor were reproduced with newly sculpted parts for the original kit design, rather than introduced as upgrades for this reprint.
FULL MECHANICS 1/100 Aile Calamity Gundam comes from Gundam SEED ECLIPSE. Its flight module and dedicated weapons with built-in mechanical gimmicks give it a different equipment focus from Sword Calamity.
October orders, separate release months
Gelgoog Menace is scheduled for release in December 2026 at ¥3,190. Aile Calamity is scheduled for January 2027 and Sword Calamity for February 2027, each priced at ¥6,050.
The announced order channel is Japan’s Hobby Online Shop on Premium Bandai. Korean preorders and international shipping have not been confirmed, so readers outside Japan should check ordering and delivery conditions before making plans.
