The RX-0 Unicorn Gundam (or Unicorn Gundam, Unicorn, RX-0) is the titular mobile suit of Mobile Suit Gundam Unicorn, piloted by Banagher Links.
When used for noble reasons by a pilot possessing the proper character,
the RX-0 is the "key" to opening a mysterious object known only as "Laplace's Box".
Produced as a part of the E.F.S.F's
reorganization plan - the "U.C. Project" - the Unicorn Gundam is a
revolutionary design and to be the main symbol of the "U.C. project's"
main goal - to destroy any traces of Zeonism in the Earth Sphere - and
thus not only does it features a Gundam design, but also incorporates an
anti-Newtype system. However, when the Vist Foundation took control of
the project, they turned the Gundam into a symbol of possibility by
making it the key to finding Laplace's Box - the embodied hope of the
Universal Century. Featuring the most advanced mobile suit technology of
the time, the machine's performance is unmatched.
Incorporating test data obtained from the experimental MSN-06S Sinanju Stein, the entire frame is lined with psyco-frame
receptors, drastically increasing the responsiveness of the unit and
allowing it to be piloted like an extension of the pilot's body. In some
cases, this responsiveness is so high that it appears the suit acts on
its own without any actions from the pilot. In addition, the Unicorn
utilizes a special "La+ Program" OS and a system known as the "NT-D" (or
Newtype Destroyer) which activates the suit's psyco-frame and
dramatically increases the suit's performance.
In its normal mode, the Unicorn's head is similar in appearance to those of Londo Bell's
mass-produced mobile suits, with the addition of a single, horn-like
antenna extending from the forehead (hence the name "Unicorn"). In terms
of its armaments in normal mode, the Unicorn is very lightly armed,
with half of its built-in weaponry only being available in Destroy Mode.
Destroy Mode is the form the Unicorn Gundam takes when its
NT-D System is activated. The transformation is marked by an expansion
of the suit's frame. The armor seams separate and lock down into various
hard-points, while the newly exposed psyco-frame emits a pinkish-red
glow (attributed to a psyco-frame luminescence phenomenon). In this
mode, the mobile suit becomes taller and its head transforms to one
having standard Gundam features, the visor and face guard retracts into
the head to reveal the mouth plate and the antenna splitting into a
V-fin. In order to prevent its transformation being interrupted, its
I-Field strength will be increased, at least temporary. Additionally a
pair of beam Vulcan guns will be revealed on the shoulders, and two
additional beam sabers will extend out of the backpack.
In this form, the suit's psyco-frame scans the pilot's thoughts
and directly transmits them to the suit's drive system; in other words,
the Unicorn can ultimately be controlled by the pilot's thoughts alone.
The machine's performance - its mobility in particular - is dramatically
increased when the NT-D is active partially due to the exposure and
activation of six additional thrusters. In addition to the performance
boost, the NT-D also allows the Unicorn to take control of an enemy's
psycommu weapons. However, the stress placed on the mind by manipulating
an object more than tenfold the size of an average human is
extraordinary.
Even with the aid of the psyco-frame the pilot's mind can only
endure roughly five minutes of operation before a safeguard is believed
to activate, deactivating the psyco-frame and returning the mobile suit
to its normal form. Furthermore, the system activates not according to
the pilot's discretion, but automatically upon the detection of another
Newtype. The system also directs the movement of the suit when active,
and does not completely depend on the pilot for commands. By default,
the system will automatically attempt to destroy any Newtype enemies it
detects, but requires the pilot to give it a conscience so it does not
merely become a killing machine.

Robot Damashii: Gundam Age-1 Sparrow
The AGE-1S Gundam AGE-1 Spallow is a high-speed variant of the AGE-1 Gundam AGE-1 Normal from the anime series Mobile Suit Gundam AGE. It is piloted by Flit Asuno.
A high speed variant of the AGE-1 Gundam AGE-1 Normal. At 33.4 tons, it is almost 25% lighter than the AGE-1 Normal. The Spallow was developed to counter the UE's high speed Xvv-xc Zedas. Its speed is at least as great as that of the Zedas, and its "Shigiru Blade" short sword has even greater cutting power than the Zedas sword, cutting through its blade with barely any effort.
The Gundam AGE-1 Normal is the prized possession of the Asuno Family which incorporates a special OS to counter the Unknown Enemy or UE. Since its development, the mobile suit is designed as a Legendary savior, holder of the mobile suit name "Gundam".
Developed through the data retrieved from the AGE device passed down from the Asuno family, the mobile suit has become pivotal in the fight against the Unknown Enemy (UE). Design wise, the mobile suit is intended to be versatile on equipping several arm and leg packs for combat. However, the unit's power lies within its OS, the AGE System, which allows the Mobile Suit the OS to gather data and come up with equipment or wear designs to counter a specific enemy. Its "spoiler-like" device at its back is actually a broad antenna that serves to collect data for the AGE System to analyze. Its basic weaponry includes such as beam sabers/daggers, a shield and a new weapon called DODS Rifle that was developed by the AGE System during one of its earlier battles against the UE. Using "wear parts" created by the AGE System through the AGE Builder, the Gundam can also can also take two other forms: the faster Spallow form and the heavier Titus form, in which the arms, legs, and outer front skirt armor of the Gundam AGE-1 are changed. Unlike other mass produced mobile suits of the Earth Federation Forces in AG 114, the armor of the Gundam is strong enough to withstand attacks from a Gafran's beam vulcan and its diffuse beam cannon with no apparent damage.
AGE-1 uses independently developed plasma control technology and has a higher output than Earth Federation Forces’s Genoace. The core component of the AGE System is located in the MS’s chest.By linking up with the antenna on the backpack and the varieties of sensors in the head unit, the core component is able to collect and analyze data during combat and can transmit a limited amount of data. As AGE-1 is an experimental unit, and after taking into consideration maintenance and transport issues, its limbs are designed with independent power units.

Robot Damashii: Gundam Age-1 Normal
Mobile Suit Gundam AGE (機動戦士ガンダムAGE Kidō Senshi Gandamu Eiji) is a 2011 Japanese science fiction anime television series and the twelfth incarnation of Sunrise's long-running Gundam franchise. The series is first announced in the July issue of Shogakukan's CoroCoro Comic, and has gaming company Level-5's President Akihiro Hino in charge of the story. The series was officially unveiled by Bandai on June 13, 2011, during a special event at the 2011 Tokyo Toy Show. Gundam AGE premiered on the MBS and TBS broadcasting stations in Japan on October 9, 2011 The series is set in a futuristic Earth and is centered on the war that
plagued the earth for centuries. Only a Family lineage can protect
everyone by using the legendary mobile suit known as "Gundam".
In A.G. 101 (the 101st year of the Advanced Generation calendar) a mysterious entity known only as "UE", or "unknown enemy",
attacks and destroys the space colony Angel. This brutal attack becomes
infamous as the "The Day the Angel Fell", and marks the beginning of
humanity's war for survival. The series begins in A.G. 108 when the UE
attack the space colony Ovan, where Flit Asuno now lives after he
escaped colony Angel before its destruction. Flit's mother shortly
before she is killed by the UE, she gives her son an object called "AGE
Device". Within it he discovers the blueprints for a powerful weapon
from the past—the ancient messiah named "Gundam."
From these blueprints, Flit spends the next several years studying
engineering at an Earth Federation base on the Nora space colony and
designing the Gundam AGE-1. Seven years later, in A.G. 115, Flit
completes the Gundam AGE-1 Normal, just as the UE attack Nora, and make
use of it to aid the crew of Federation's battleship "Diva" in
evacuating the colony's citizens before it is destroyed. Determined to
bring the battle to the U.E. for destroying his home twice, Flit agrees
to serve at Diva's mobile suit squad piloting the Gundam. After
obtaining enough data and military power to establish a course of
action, the crew of Diva and their allies launch a successful attack
that destroyed the U.E.'s secret fortress in the Ambat asteroid. There
they learn that the U.E. are actually the descendants of a supposedly
failed human mission sent to colonize Mars, left for dead by the Earth
Federation, who formed their own nation on the red planet called Vagan.
Robot Damashii: Code Geass - Shen Hu
A Knightmare Frame model developed by Rakshata's team at the same time as the Guren, the Shen Hu (神虎, Shen Hu, lit. "Divine Tiger") was given to the main forces of the Chinese Federation
by the Maharajah. However, it was left in storage because piloting it
was too physically demanding, and thus a suitable pilot could not be
found. Li Xingke
proves capable of piloting it, but even at forty percent power the task
proves very stressful. The Shenhu has blue armor with red and gold
parts, and its head unit has an intricate design with a red spike
protruding from the top.
Having been built by the same team that developed the Black Knights' Knightmares, the Shen hu is equipped with the same type of Air Glide Wing System. Mounted in its torso is the powerful Baryon Cannon (天愕覇王重粒子砲, Tengaku Haoh Juuryushi Hou, lit. Heavenly Frightening Overlord Heavy Particle Cannon), a weapon similar to the Hadron Cannon; at forty percent power, it is able to match the full force of the Guren Flight-Enabled Version's improved radiant wave surger; at an unknown (possibly full) level of power, it can completely shatter Blaze Luminous shielding.
Its main weapons are two dagger-shaped Slash Harkens mounted on
its wrist. By wrapping or impaling an enemy with the Slash Harkens, the
Shenhu can send a powerful electrical charge along the cable, instantly
destroying the Knightmare on the receiving end. The Shenhu's wrist armor
can also spin in place to turn the Slash Harkens into powerful flails
which can double as shields. Finally, the Shenhu has a short sword
stored near its shoulder. The short sword is retractable and can produce
a blade on either side of its hilt when fully activated. In addition,
it has white armor plates on the its shoulder and waist which can be
used as shields.
Robot Damashii: Crossbone Gundam X-1
Mobile Suit Crossbone Gundam (機動戦士クロスボーン・ガンダム Kidou Senshi Kurosubōn Gandam) is a six volume manga written by Yoshiyuki Tomino and illustrated by Yuichi Hasegawa.
Crossbone takes place ten years after Mobile Suit Gundam F91, and multiple characters from that movie return as main characters within the manga. The manga has never been officially distributed outside of Japan.
Universal Century (UC) 0133. Ten years after the events of the Cosmo Babylon Wars depicted in F91, 13 year-old protagonist Tobia Arronax/Tobias Allonax is a transfer student from Earth heading to the very affluent Jupiter Empire colonies aboard the Smashion Jovian transport ship. When space pirates of the Crossbone Vanguard attacks the Smashion with their ship, the Mother Vanguard, Tobia willingly sorties out in a Jovian Batara mobile suit holding them off as if he were a natural pilot. Unfortunately, he is captured by Crossbone Vanguard ace pilot Seabrook Arno, who has changed his name to, fittingly enough, Kinkado Now-(note: a Kinkado is a small rare bird)Kincaid Nau and brought before their leader Berah Ronah, who offers him a choice: either head straight to Jupiter and forget what has happened or join them to discover the truth. Tobia hesitantly joins with the pirates, but little does he know the Vanguard's agenda is one of resistance than of piracy.
In reality, the Jovians have been secretly building up their military for years, forming the Jupiter Empire, with the goal of Earth Sphere domination. Their ruthless leader Crux Dogatie maintains a façade of partnership with the Earth Federation, so as to avoid suspicion by the Federal government. Learning the truth, Tobia allies with the Crossbone Vanguard, and under Kincaid's tutelage, becomes one of their most prominent pilots, while using the XM-X2 Crossbone Gundam X-3, while slowly developing his Newtype abilities.

Robot Damashii: Code Geass - Zangetsu
The Zangetsu (斬月 Zangetsu, lit. Slashing Moon) is a eighth generation Knightmare Frame constructed for Kyoshiro Tohdoh's personal use. It bears great resemblance to his old customized Gekka,
retaining the same paint-job, shoulder armor and the hair-like
attachments. Its performance is well above a standard Gekka however, it
is capable of matching some of the more advanced Britannian Knightmares.
While it carries the same single Slash Harken and Seidoutou (制動刀 Seidoutou, lit. "Brake Sword") as the Gekka, it also implements some new weaponry, namely a pair of chest-hidden machine cannons and Radiant Wave Shielding System. These new technologies would be latter incorporated into the Akatsuki Command Model Zikisan. It can also make use of the same Air Glide Wing/Missile Launcher combo unit as the Akatsuki. In such occasions, it is referred as the Type-04/F1C Zangetsu Flight-Enabled Version
The Zangetsu makes its first appearance during the kidnapping of Empress Tianzi fighting against Suzaku's Lancelot Conquista. It shows most of its new features against him, throwing him off guard, but later on recovers. It makes its final appearance during the Second Assault on Tokyo Settlement. The Zangetsu is badly damaged when Lelouch vi Britannia sets off the Sakuradite in Mount Fuji to destroy a large portion of the Black Knights' forces, but Tohdoh continues to fight until his machine is finally destroyed in combat with Suzaku Kururugi and his Lancelot Albion.

Composite Ver. Ka: Code Geass - Lancelot Albion
The Lancelot Albion (ランスロット アルビオン Ransurotto Arubion) is a ninth generation Knightmare Frame built specifically for the Knight of Zero, Suzaku Kururugi.
Its design differs radically from its predecessors, featuring much more ornamental armor while the head unit is slightly larger. It maintains its previous armament and defenses, but enhanced. The shields are larger and it carries a pair of double-barreled Super VARIS rifles that feature a standard barrel for rapid fire, and a larger one for charged shots. The Albion's Maser Vibration Swords are also capable of defeating the Galahad's Excalibur.
The primary distinguishing feature is the Energy Wing System; the same type used on the Guren S.E.I.T.E.N. Eight Elements, but with three energy "feathers" instead of four. This offense, defense and propulsion system gives the Albion astounding speed and agility, as well as the ability to fire dozens of lethal energy bolts over a wide area, each one capable of destroying a Knightmare in a single hit. Besides the improved performance, the wings are also used to envelope the Albion in a protective, full-body energy shield. In the last episode, it is hinted that a cockpit ejection system might have been built into it.
The Lancelot Albion makes its combat debut during the attempted uprising against Emperor Lelouch vi Britannia, led by the Knights of the Round. The Albion's superior capabilities allow Suzaku to make short work of the opposition; with the exception of Gino Weinberg, whose Tristan was only knocked out of the fight. It is later involved with Emperor Lelouch's kidnapping of the U.F.N. members, giving him cover as he set his plan in motion. The Lancelot Albion wages its final battle over Mt. Fuji, between the Black Knights and Emperor Lelouch; during the battle, Suzaku is confronted by Kyoshiro Tohdoh in his Zangetsu; he fights diligently against the Albion, but his Knightmare is simply no match for it. Tohdoh is soon forced to eject, as the Zangetsu receives a devastating hit.
After a brief interruption from Tamaki; Suzaku, Lelouch, and a small group of Knightmares head for the Damocles with the intent of boarding it. Using the F.L.E.I.J.A. eliminator, the Albion is able to halt the firing of the Damocles' F.L.E.I.J.A. warheads, with most of the group breaking through the aerial fortresses' Blaze Luminous shield. The group makes it inside, before being ambushed by Gino in his rebuilt Tristan Divider; the escorting Knightmares and Lelouch's Shinkirō being destroyed in the process.
Suzaku duels with Gino, eventually besting him in combat, but not before he manages to open up the Damocles' shield, allowing Kallen in the Guren S.E.I.T.E.N. Eight Elements-Type to take over. They clash repeatedly, before finally ending up in a stalemate. The Lancelot Albion takes a critical blow to the chest and is destroyed in an explosion, while the Guren loses its arms and head in free-fall.
Composite Ver. Ka - Code Geass - Shinkirou
The Shinkirō (蜃気楼 Shinkirō, lit. Mirage) is an Eighth Generation Transformable Knightmare Frame constructed for Lelouch vi Britannia (Zero)'s personal use. It possesses an integrated Air Glide System
for flight and can transform into a submarine/jet fighter to move
underwater and/or fly, which Lelouch uses to travel to and from Japan
undetected. Its armor is primarily black and gold, and it has several
unusual physical features. Its feet are not round, instead consisting of
four large toes, and its head has four eyes. Its cockpit is also much
wider. In addition to the standard control yoke system, the Shinkirō has
keyboard-based controls similar to those used on the Gawain.
The Shinkirō possesses an Absolute Defense System
(絶対守護領域, Zettai Shugo Ryōiki) system which uses an array of hexagonal
energy shields that can be projected over any part of the Knightmare.
Its Druid System, adapted from the Gawain, plots the trajectories of
incoming projectiles and shifts the shields accordingly, giving the
Shinkirō the highest defensive power of any Knightmare Frame. All these
are controlled by the Druid system and the keyboard-based controls. The
system requires incredibly complex calculations to form effective
barriers, such that it takes an intellect on the level of Lelouch to use
the system to its full potential. When Rolo Lamperouge
attempts to use it, he is only able to erect a meager defense with a
number of weak spots. At its full potential, the Absolute Defense System
can block a sustained blast from the Mordred's Stark Hadron Cannon, albeit at the cost of much of its power reserves.
Its main weapon is a chest-mounted Diffusion Structure Phase
Transition Cannon (拡散構造相転移砲, Kakusan Kōzō Shō Teni Hō). When activated, a
prism-like object is fired from the Shinkirō's chest. The Shinkirō then
fires a powerful beam into the prism, which refracts the blast into
dozens of devastating pinpoint lasers. The beam can be fired without
launching the prism for a concentrated attack. The shields must be
deactivated for the weapon to be fired. The Shinkirō also has a pair of
Hadron blasters mounted on the underside of its wrists which fire
sphere-shaped blasts, rather than continuous beams.
Interestingly, the Shinkirō does indeed feature a set of Slash Harkens,
concealed within its knees. The unorthodox design requires Shinkirō to
bend its knee in order to fire them. Lelouch scarcely ever uses this
weapon, leading many to believe that it does not exist on the
Knightmare. However, a case could be made that the Slash Harkens are in
the perfect location to be used in Fortress Mode. In addition, the
Shinkiro mounts at least one missile or grenade launcher, which was
never used in combat. It's single operation was within the Thought Elevator,
in order to deploy an amount of reflective Chaff with which to disrupt
Emperor Charles' ability to use his Geass effectively, while allowing
Lelouch to use the reflective surfaces to deploy his own.
The Shinkirō also shares the same black and gold color scheme as its predecessor, the Gawain. Whether this is a personal request from Lelouch or merely a tribute to the larger Knightmare Frame from which it was developed remains unknown.
Robot Damashii: Code Geass - Guren Nishiki (Flying Type)
The Guren Mk-II (紅蓮弐式, Guren Nishiki, lit. Crimson Lotus Type-02) was a prototype Knightmare Frame model designed by Indian engineer, Rakshata Chawla, manufactured by Japan, and built by the Kyoto House.
It is radically different from its Britannian counterparts, and its
technology is on par with most seventh generation Knightmare Frames, a
fact that is a source of pride for its manufacturers. The later Gekka
models were based on the Guren's technology. Unlike Britannian made
Knightmare cockpits, the Guren Mk-II features an unconventional pilot
seat shaped in the form of a motorbike seat, and a helm-like outgrowth
surrounding its retractable head. The only existing unit is in the
possession of the Order of the Black Knights and piloted by Kallen Kozuki.
The Guren Mk-II's main weapon is its silver right hand. The hand
stands out from the otherwise red-painted mech, terminating in clawed
fingers, and it can extend at the elbow for a surprise attack. Stored
within the palm is the Radiant Wave Surger (輻射波動, Fukushahadō lit.
radiation surge), a powerful microwave radiation emitter. By grabbing
onto an enemy Knightmare and activating the emitter, the Guren Mk-II can
fry the enemy's electronics and warp the frame itself, not only
rendering the unfortunate machine completely unsalvageable, but often
damaging the pilot's ejection system, usually ensuring that the pilot
will perish with his craft. While not designed as such, the Radiant Wave
Surger can also function as a shield. It has been shown to block the
lances of enemy Knightmares, bullets from Knightmare rifles, and a shell
from the Lancelot's VARIS rifle. The arm is destroyed in the battle of Tokyo, but is replaced with a slimmer, three-fingered version in the second season.
Aside from its Fukushahadō, the Guren Mk-II possesses a small
fork knife, a machine-cannon on its left arm, and a single Slash Harken.
The Guren Mk-II's speed and strength can also easily match the
Lancelot's. Its lack of long-range weapons make it a close-combat model
suited for a defensive position in combat, however Kallen's skill in
piloting make it a formidable offensive weapon.
Robot Damashii: Code Geass - Guren Seiten
The Guren now uses the Energy Wing
similar to that of the Lancelot Albion, but with four energy "feathers"
instead of three. The wings can also serve as Cutting Weapons,
Shielding Weapons and Ranged Weapon. The system allows the Guren to move
at blinding speeds, such that it appears to be little more than a
purple blur in flight. Its radiant wave surger arm has gold highlights
on the fingers and forearm, and has been upgraded significantly. It can
be fired like a Slash Harken, and has a Harken Booster for controlled
flight and can be a sharp Battering Ram Like Drill. The arm still
functions when launched as such. Its original functions are retained and
far more potent: the ordinary radiation burst can block a Hadron Cannon
blast with seemingly no effort and the hand can crush energy shielding
without the aid of the emitter. It is also capable of firing disk-like
radiation projectile. The Guren's fork knife is also upgraded, having
been retrofitted with MVS capability and made about twice as long. Its
MVS (which is colored purple as opposed to the usual red) is evidently
more potent than normal versions, as it can cut through the Lancelot
Conquista's MVS swords.
Additional armor is also present on the knees and ankles. The
antennae have been extended and enlarged, making them appear to be giant
ears. Its chest is completely different, with the orange part extended
further and a pair of green jewels featured prominently on the front.
Its namesake comes from its operation system, which is Superlative Extruder Interlocked Technology Exclusive Nexus (S.E.I.T.E.N.) Eight
Elements. It also is equipped with two Slash Harkens attached to its shoulders.
