Story & Background: The MSN-04 Sazabi is the personal mobile suit of Char Aznable, leader of Neo Zeon, during the events of Mobile Suit Gundam: Char’s Counterattack. As one of the most powerful mobile suits in the Universal Century timeline, the Sazabi is equipped with psycho-frame technology and built for heavy firepower, speed, and agility.

Key Features:

• Massive and Detailed Design: The Sazabi Ver.Ka is known for its enormous size and imposing presence. The model kit features finely molded parts, sharp panel lines, and detailed surface textures, staying true to Hajime Katoki’s distinctive design style. The large frame and bulk of the Sazabi are faithfully recreated, making this model a standout piece in any collection.
• Advanced Articulation: Despite its size, the MG Sazabi Ver.Ka is engineered with a fully articulated inner frame, allowing for a wide range of dynamic poses. The joints are designed for stability and flexibility, ensuring that the mobile suit can hold complex action stances and handle its heavy weaponry with ease.
• Psycho-Frame Technology: Like the Nu Gundam, the Sazabi is equipped with psycho-frame technology, enhancing its responsiveness and allowing Char to control the suit with greater precision. The psycho-frame is subtly incorporated into the model’s structure, giving it a unique and futuristic aesthetic.
• Comprehensive Armament: The Sazabi Ver.Ka comes equipped with a variety of powerful weapons, including the Beam Shot Rifle, Beam Tomahawk, Beam Sabers, and Shield. The model also includes six detachable Funnels, which can be posed in flight mode or stored on the backpack. Each weapon is intricately detailed, and the Beam Tomahawk and Rifle can be combined for added display options.
• Opening Armor Panels: The model kit features a unique gimmick where certain armor panels can open to reveal internal mechanical details. This adds a layer of depth and realism to the model, highlighting the internal mechanics of the mobile suit.
• Detailed Cockpit and Pilot Figure: The cockpit hatch can be opened to reveal a detailed interior, including a seated figure of Char Aznable. This feature adds an extra layer of authenticity and connection to the character and story.

• Sturdy Construction and Balance: Despite its size and weight, the Sazabi Ver.Ka is designed to maintain stability. The large backpack, Funnels, and heavy weaponry are all engineered to ensure the mobile suit can be posed without compromising balance.
• Snap-Fit Assembly: The model kit is designed for snap-fit assembly, making it accessible to builders of various experience levels. The clear and detailed instructions guide you through the complex build process, ensuring a rewarding and enjoyable experience.

Display Stand Compatibility: Given the size and bulk of the Sazabi, it is compatible with action bases (sold separately) for dynamic in-flight poses or display setups that capture its full range of motion and power.
