HG Ginn Type Insurgent - Together with the original HG Mobile Ginn.

Together with the original HG Mobile Ginn.

A variation of the Mobile Ginn — often called the Zaku of SEED — the Ginn Type Insurgent has been released. The basic frame is the same as the Mobile Ginn, but the design adds small weapon accessories like flare rounds to the head, shoulders, and front skirt. On top of that, the bazooka included with the HG Astray Blue Frame has been added as a weapon.

Aside from the new bazooka and the desert-toned molded colors, it doesn't feel all that different from the original Mobile Ginn... but since the HG Mobile Ginn is already one of the highest-quality kits among the SEED HG lineup, this kit also has a really satisfying build feel and a great overall impression. The articulation isn't exceptional, but the proportions look great when posed, and the color separation is well done too, so even a straight straight build comes out looking pretty solid.

The original Mobile Ginn is already a great kit, but if you're after a desert-style unit or something with a bit more detail and character, the HG Ginn Type Insurgent would be a fine choice as well. :-)
