The Bandai HG00 #43 1/144 GNW-20000 Arche Gundam is a High Grade model kit from the Mobile Suit Gundam 00 anime series. The Arche Gundam is the successor to the Gundam Throne Zwei, piloted by the notorious mercenary Ali al-Saachez during the second season of the series, and features a distinctive combat-oriented design with multiple weapon systems. Standing approximately 15 cm (6 inches) tall when completed, this snap-fit kit is suitable for beginner to intermediate builders, requiring no painting or glue for completion. It was originally released in May 2009 and later reissued with updated packaging in 2020.
