The Bandai HGCE #252 1/144 ZGMF-1027M Duel Blitz Gundam is a High Grade Cosmic Era kit from the animated film Mobile Suit Gundam SEED Freedom. This kit recreates Yzak Joule's upgraded mobile suit, a modified version of the original GAT-X102 Duel Gundam equipped with new Assault Shroud armor incorporating weaponry inspired by the GAT-X207 Blitz Gundam. Suitable for beginner to intermediate builders, this snap-fit plastic kit requires no glue or paint for assembly. The Duel Blitz Gundam is the first HGCE iteration of the classic Duel Gundam, featuring a completely new mold with updated proportions matching its appearance in SEED Freedom.
