HGTWFM #25 Gundam Schwarzette

From Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch from Mercury, the MDX-0003 Gundam Schwarzette appears in HG form with its highly modular Guardian weapon system. Released in July 2023, the kit combines a lean, knight-like body with one of the most elaborate weapon gimmicks in the series, centred on a large sword / sheath assembly made from multiple detachable Bit Staves.

The Guardian breaks down into four offensive Bit Staves and two defensive Bit Staves around a central Beam Blade. These can be rearranged into the large Guardian Sheath, deployed separately around the drawn blade, or mounted across the mobile suit to reproduce Guardian Marionette-style configurations. Plastic stickers reproduce the shell-unit detail inside the Guardian, while optional colour-correction stickers allow powered and unpowered appearances.
