Tag type: Character

The original Gundam Mobile Suit from the series Mobile Suit Gundam. Together with Guntank and Guncannon, it is the final mobile suit of the Earth Federation's Project V. It also serves as the franchise's mascot. It is piloted by the series' protagonist, Amuro Ray.

Extremely powerful and resilient, it is equipped with an advanced A.I. system that improves the combat abilities of its pilot. It was designed by Tem Ray.

Visually, it has a white, red, blue, and yellow color scheme. It also has a white V-shaped head fin, and is often seen carrying a shield and beam rifle. Not the be confused with the Gundam Mk II, Strike Gundam, Ground Gundam, or Gundam GP-01 Zephyranthes.

In real life it was designed by Ookawara Kunio and refined by Yasuhiko Yoshikazu in the late 70s. (Yasuhiko designed the Gundam's face mask and color scheme.)

The first Gundam was inspired by Mazinger Z (mecha) and the power armors from Starship Troopers.
