Premium Bandai has announcedan exciting new expansion set, which is now available for the sold separatelyMG 1/100 Gundam TR-1 [Hazel Custom]kit, allowing enthusiasts to recreate its high mobility form. This set includes two shield boosters and water slide decals, adding both aesthetic and functional enhancements to your new expanded Gundam TR-1 model.The Hazel Custom, an improved version of the original Hazel mobile suit, has undergone considerable improvements as a result of prior encounters. Notably, the distinctive shield boosters that were fundamental to its design were lost. These shield boosters significantly improved the suit’s mobility by giving more thrust and maneuverability. Without them, the Hazel Custom loses agility and speed, which could have an impact on its performance in dynamic combat scenarios.
To compensate for this handicap, the Hazel Custom has been supplied with a regular shield. While this substitute lacks the advanced capabilities of shield boosters, it provides acceptable defense and keeps the suit operating. This adaptation highlights the Hazel Custom’s design flexibility and durability, allowing it to work efficiently in the absence of specialized equipment.
Furthermore, the redeployment timeframe for the Hazel Custom was so tight that there was no time to repaint the mobile suit in the Titans’ characteristic colors. The Titans, a faction noted for their distinct color scheme, would often need all of its units to match for the sake of consistency and identification. However, due to scheduling constraints, the Hazel Custom keeps the gray tint of its original molded armor. This grey tint distinguishes it visually from other units, yet it is still fully functional and ready for deployment.
Overall, the Hazel Custom’s performance has been enhanced in other areas to compensate for the reduced mobility caused by the loss of the shield boosters. This ensures that the mobile suit remains a formidable asset on the battlefield, despite the setbacks and time limitations it has faced.
