HGUC #52 RMS-108 Marasai

Anaheim Electronics initially developed the RMS-108 Marasai for the AEUG to use as a mass-production model. The RMS-108 Marasai was instead given to the Titans to prevent an unnecessary conflict with the hot-tempered organization. The RMS-108 Marasai served as a vast improvement over the Federation-built RMS-106 Hi-Zack, featuring Gundarium Alloy armor and an improved powerplant. Unlike its predecessor, the RMS-108 Marasai can fully utilize Beam Weaponry. This HGUC version of the RMS-108 Marasai matches its appearance in the Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam animated series.

Accessories for the RMS-108 Marasai are as follows:

• BR-87A Beam Rifle
• Beam Saber x2

Articulation –

Bandai released the HGUC RMS-108 Marasai over 15 years ago! This model kit provides a sweet-looking and fully articulated Mobile Suit using under 150 pieces, perfect for beginners or someone looking for a straightforward old-school Gunpla model to add to their collection. The shoulder spikes mount to the RMS-108 Marasai’s arm via ball joint for a more dynamic look. The Shoulder Shield articulates in two places and will rotate on its attachment point for better posing.

Weapons and Other Notable Attributes –

The BR-87A Beam Rifle features a removable e-pac and handle. In-universe, this weapon outputs a maximum of 2.2 MW, .3 higher than the RX-78-2 Gundam‘s Beam Rifle. The RMS-108 Marasai uses a pair of unusually long Beam Sabers for close-quarters engagements. The Beam Sabers attach to the inside of the Shoulder Shield to recharge when not in use. Bandai included a set of transparent yellow Beam Effects for deploying the RMS-108 Marasai’s Beam Sabers.
