The Bandai MG 1/100 Shin Musha Gundam is a Master Grade kit based on the samurai-armored mobile suit from the Dynasty Warriors Gundam (Gundam Musou) video game series. Designed by Hajime Katoki, this kit features elaborately detailed feudal Japanese-style armor with silver mekki-plated weapon blades and a super-poseable inner frame borrowed from the MG RX-78-2 Gundam Ver. One Year War 0079. Recommended for intermediate to advanced builders familiar with Master Grade construction, this kit offers a rewarding build with extensive articulation and display potential. The Shin Musha Gundam first appeared as a hidden unit in Dynasty Warriors Gundam on PlayStation 2 and quickly became a fan-favorite design.
