MASTER GRADE Ver.Ka 20th anniversary! “MG 1/100 Zeta Gundam Ver.Ka” has appeared from “Mobile Suit Z Gundam”.
Pursuing the proportions in the anime setting draft by Mr. Kazumi Fujita.
Refine the structure and shape of each unit so that both MS form and wave rider form are not broken, and build a transformation mechanism. Simplify complex gimmicks and realize updated transformations.
The reproducibility of the poses in the play is improved by securing a wide range of motion in the MS form. By providing a lock mechanism for each part, it is possible to have a stable display like a fixed aircraft model in wave rider mode.
A metallic extra finish is applied to various parts of the aircraft, and water slide decals designed by Hajime Katoki are included.
Product Description
A new challenge for the 20th anniversary of the first transforming Gundam, The Zeta Gundam Ver. Ka!
The MS has been released in various renditions while taking on the permanent challenge of achieving both ideal proportions and transformation, and its design has undergone many changes.
About 40 years have passed since the first 1/100 scale Zeta Gundam model’s release, and we have returned to the original design to pursue the recreation of the MS depicted in the TV series.
The proportions in both Mobile Suit and Waverider (WR) Form have been meticulously recreated in the latest GUNPLA format. No glue required for assembly, a hobby nipper is recommended to remove parts from runners.

- Beam Sabers x2
- Grenade Launcher Cartridges x2
- Hand parts x1 set
- Display joints x2 types (for MS/WR Forms)

Message from Hajime Katoki
When looking at the setting illustrations for the Zeta Gundam drawn for the TV series, I noticed that its original design has a unique kind of coolness that vastly differs from the sleek silhouette that modern fans love. The MS in the setting illustrations has a head and arms larger than what everyone believes what the Zeta Gundam should look like, and the legs have thicker and blockier designs made with sharp lines as though they are made out of paper. However, its overall silhouette has a bulky appearance. Therefore, this Ver.Ka model kit became an opportunity to take on the setting illustrations for the TV series that have been overlooked for so many years. I believe the design of the Zeta Gundam never gets old because it doesn’t have a “correct” way of transforming. It allows for everyone to have their own interpretations and ideal design balance. The Ver.2.0 and RG can be simply assembled to achieve cool results, but putting together this MS never gets old, so please take a look at this Ver.Ka model and use it as an opportunity to pursue your own ideal Zeta Gundam design.
