The RX-178 Gundam Mark-II is a fictional weapon from the Universal Century Gundam anime series. A collaborative design created by Kunio Okawara, Mamoru Nagano, and Kazumi Fujita, it is featured prominently as protagonist Kamille Bidan's mobile suit in the first half of Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam, and used by various secondary characters throughout the rest of that series and its sequel, Mobile Suit Gundam ZZ. It has appeared in a number of other media, including the PlayStation 2 title AEUG vs. Titans,[1] the PlayStation 3 title Dynasty Warriors: Gundam,[2] the Super Robot Wars series,[3] and PSP title Gundam Battle Royale (in a rather prominent appearance on the cover), among many others others.
In Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam
Template:AM-in-universe The RX-178 Gundam Mk-II are three prototype mobile suits developed by the Titans, an elite special unit of the Earth Federation forces, in UC 0087 - the first Gundam units seen in Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam. Aside from a new paint job of dark blue and black with red and yellow highlights, the Gundam Mk. II bears great aesthetic similarities to its One Year War-era predecessor, the original RX-78-2 Gundam from Mobile Suit Gundam. The Mk. II represented a small increase in mobility compared to the original, and with the deletion of the cumbersome and expensive core block system, room was freed upon for a more modern panoramic cockpit setup (a more or less standard accoutrement for mobile suits in the same series and time period), which is designed to offer increased situational awareness to the pilot. Armaments are fairly standard Gundam fare, including a beam rifle (chronologically speaking, the Mk. II's beam rifle was the first of such weapons to be powered by a replaceable e-pac device; this was later retconned with Gundam 0083) and twin beam sabers. Vulcan guns are not installed in the Mk. II by default, unlike previous models; however, an optional set can be added as an ejectable pod. The Mk. II may also arm a "clay bazooka" weapon, which is capable of disabling a mobile suit's mobility via an adhesive warhead (though it can equip normal explosive shells if desired). Aside from the aforementioned mundane enhancements, the Mk. II's most substantial contribution to mobile suit technology and largest upgrade over its predecessor is the then-revolutionary movable frame construction, which later inspired the designs in the novel Gundam Sentinel. Paradoxically, the Gundam Mk. II is not armored with the wonderfully durable Gundarium alloy material, first introduced in the series on the original RX-78 Gundam, making it no more or less physically durable than mass-production mobile suits of the era (the term Gundarium is a creation of the Zeta Gundam series; formerly, the same material was known as "Lunar Titanum" in Mobile Suit Gundam, and was renamed (or retconned from a meta standpoint) in honor of the original Gundam).[4]
Further development by the Titans was delayed indefinitely following a raid by AEUG operatives (led by the incognito Zeon One Year War ace Char Aznable, alias Quattro Bajeena) where all three units were stolen from the Titans' headquarters at Green Noa II (effectively kicking off the Gryps Conflict that forms the background plot of Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam). Launched from the carrier warship Argama, this "Gundam Heist" also netted the AEUG the powerful Newtype Kamille Bidan, who would become the Mk. II's chief operator, as well as initiating the series-long conflict between Kamille and Titans pilot Jerid Messa. Of note, this act marked the first "Stolen Gundam" plot event in the franchise, which has become more common in recent years (e.g. the RX-78GP-02A in Gundam 0083 or nearly the entire starting Gundam cast in Gundam SEED).[5]
Though an initial boon against Titans mobile suits (as well as even more outdated Earth Federation designs, some of which were One Year War-era Zeon models confiscated after the war),[6] the Mk. II's limited capabilities become quite apparent by the time the plot develops to the Jaburo drop operation (starting in episode 11, Entering the Atmosphere[7]), where even the Titans' new mass-produced RMS-108 Marasai mobile suits featured Gundarium alloy armoring. The Mk. II's shortcomings are mitigated, to an extent, by the attachment of the G-Defenser armor booster, constructed by Anaheim Electronics. When combined with the G-Defenser, the Mk. II's mobility is increased via numerous additional thrusters, its vulnerabilities are somewhat reduced with additional armor plating, and its offensive capabilities are boosted significantly - new weapons include a heavy beam rifle and a battery of missile launchers, among others. Additionally, the G-Defenser itself is constructed with Gundarium alloy armor, boosting the protective value of the areas covered on the Mk. II's body. This configuration, known as the "Super Gundam", enables the Mk. II to remain relatively competitive against all but the highest-performing Titans mobile suits, such as the RX-193 Hambrabi.
Kamille would eventually abandon the Mk. II (episode 21, A Sign of Zeta[8]) when the titular MSZ-006 Z Gundam, which Kamille helped design, is completed and delivered to the Argama (this also marks the first "mid-season upgrade" in the protagonist's mobile suit selection, which has since become a staple of the Gundam franchise). The Mk. II is then used by former Titans pilot Emma Sheen, who defected episodes earlier, before the Jaburo drop operation. Katz Kobayashi takes up operating the G-Defenser, and the two form a competent and effective team in utilizing the "Super Gundam". Both are finally destroyed near the very end of the Gryps Conflict (episode 49, Casualties of War[9]) by psychotic Titans pilot Yazan Gable and the high-performance RX-193 Hambrabi.
In Mobile Suit Gundam ZZ

Template:AM-in-universe The wrecked Mk. II was brought back into service as a part of the AEUG independent task force (otherwise known as the Gundam Team) near the beginning of the sequel series Mobile Suit Gundam ZZ. Though technologically inferior to many mobile weapons employed by the newly-arrived Axis/Neo Zeon forces under director Haman Khan, it saw action throughout the series until being critically damaged (once again) at the end of the First Neo Zeon War. The unique G-Defenser was never recovered, effectively terminating the "Super Gundam" configuration for the remainder of the Mk. II's appearances.
Other appearances and beyond
![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/1/1c/VX2.jpg/220px-VX2.jpg)
The concept of Isuzu VX 2 official link is inspired by RX-178 Gundam Mk-II as concept design arts released in the Jan/Feb 1998, as seen in issue no. 71 of the magazine Axis published in Japan.
The Mk. II received its first widespread appearance in North American media on the talk show Late Night with Conan O'Brien in a commercial bump.[10] Featured around May 2000, a Gundam Mk. II with O'Brien's face and hands, and a cartoon-like head on the shield, sparked some interest in the then-fledgling North American fan community on the Gundam Mailing List, or GML[11] about a potential US release. Regardless, Zeta Gundam was not officially released in the North American market by Bandai until 2004.[12] Late Night graphical designer Pierre Bernard is a self-stated anime enthusiast,[13] though if he specifically created the "Conan Mk. II" bumper has not been confirmed by any official source.
As with most mobile suits from Zeta Gundam, the Gundam Mk. II (and its Super form) received 1/144th[14] and 1/100th[15] scale model kits in 1987, along with a 1/220th scale "pocket model" (scaled to match large Z Gundam mobile suit kits, such as the MRX-009 Psyco Gundam.[16] In 1994, the Mk. II was featured in the limited-run 1/144th High Grade series (not to be confused with the later HGUC, or High Grade Universal Century, series), along with the original RX-78 Gundam and successor MSZ-006 Zeta Gundam.[17]. With the 1/144th-scale HGUC lineup, launched in 2000, the Mk. II has seen very heavy coverage. The Mk. II was released as a standalone model in May 2002 (in AEUG and Titans colors),[18] with the G-Defenser in "Super Gundam" configuration in November 2002,[19] a limited production (now discontinued) collector's "extra finish" version in May 2005, [20] with the Flying Armor re-entry vehicle later that month,[21] and as part of the "Gryphios War" 3-pack with the Zeta Gundam and MSN-00100 Hyaku Shiki in March 2006.[22] The Mk. II joined the 1/100th-scale Master Grade lineup in August 1998, in both AEUG[23] and Titans colors.[24] A Master Grade "Super Gundam" kit with the G-Defenser was issued in January 1999,[25] Totally re-designed versions of the Master Grade Mk. IIs were released in October 2005 (AEUG version)[26] and March 2006 (Titans version),[27] concurrent with the releases of the second and third Zeta Gundam movie compilations respectively. Finally, the Gundam Mk. II was inducted into the enormous 1/60th-scale Perfect Grade line in November 2001,[28] and again in Titans colors in July 2002.[29]
