IBO HG 1/144 Ryusei-Go (Graze Custom II)

The flamboyant EB-06/tc2 Ryusei-Go (Graze Custom II) joins the High Grade line in this 1/144 scale IBO HG version from Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans. Piloted by Norba Shino within Tekkadan, this Mobile Suit immediately stands out due to its particularly unusual pink color scheme and the distinctive markings applied to its head.

The Ryusei-Go is an evolution of the Graze Custom captured and used by Tekkadan. After further modifications, the unit notably received a specific head, shoulders, and rear waist armor, giving the Graze a more personal and instantly recognizable silhouette.

This High Grade version directly reproduces its pink color thanks to the various molded parts, while the distinctive head marking is completed with the included stickers. The kit also retains the articulated structure of the Graze Frame, offering a good range of motion to reproduce the battle poses seen in the series.

Its arsenal includes the classic GR-W01 120 mm Rifle used by Graze units, as well as the massive GR-H01 9.8 m Battle Axe for close combat. This edition also adds a Short Barrel Rifle specifically reproduced for the Ryusei-Go, which is more compact and particularly suitable for short-range engagements.

With its colorful appearance, varied equipment, and close ties to Norba Shino, the Ryusei-Go is one of the most original variants of the Graze and an essential model to complete a collection dedicated to Tekkadan and Iron-Blooded Orphans.

Gunpla Zone Tips

The pink color scheme of the Ryusei-Go is particularly original and gains depth with light panel lining. A subtle gray or brown can highlight the armor details without creating too much contrast with the model's colors.

The head markings are one of the most important visual elements of the Ryusei-Go. Take your time to position the stickers correctly before permanently applying them to maintain their alignment and symmetry.

To vary the display, alternate between the long 120 mm Rifle, the Short Barrel Rifle, and the Battle Axe. This combination of weapons allows you to present the Ryusei-Go in both firing configurations and the close-combat poses characteristic of Iron-Blooded Orphans.
