Anyway… like the regular GM, it comes with that neat outstretched hand. I have the ground type, and the space type is largely the same, just coming in a traditional GM color scheme with a different gun and backpack. It also has sort of a selection of hands, but again, I’ll get to that when I discuss the weapons.In 1989, the launch of Gundam 0080 attempted to do something new with Gundam: Create all-new mecha designs to replace the ones from the original series-updates, if you will. Yes, it has a translucent green visor just like the original kit from the 80’s.Like all of the other 0080 suits, the GM Command (Or Commando, depending on your preference) was designed by Yutaka Izubuchi of Patlabor Chinese mold fame, and boy it shows through here. Unlike the original head, it’s mounted on a ball joint, adding for better stability.
A lot of the fiction from this time supported this idea, like the SD Gundam OVA episode where the SDs go into the “real” Gundam Universe, and the “MS Era” book, which took a look at the One Year War as if it were an actual war in history. It’s very sleek, very late-80’s, and it’s probably one of my favorite “major” GM revisions out there. There are two flavors of this kit-ground and space type. We have them in the store, too, and it’s a relatively inexpensive kit, so hey, go buy one, or ten, it’s all good. The antenna on the right shoulder was always a cool touch to me, but you might want to file off the excess plastic on it.
The arms seem simple enough at first, until you get the elbows. Now, if only Bandai would make an HGUC GM Sniper II….Now, for the weapons… you get the standard EFSF machine gun-always nice; the 0080-style shield, which has a neat molded EFSF emblem, and it can actually be held in the left hand while still being attached the forearm.The legs are pretty disappointing compared to the arms, but there’s nothing wrong with them. But now I should get to the part that I’m really glad Bandai quickly abolished…WHY DID THEY HAVE TO MAKE A BEAM SABER MOLDED INTO THE HAND!?Honestly, this killed so many kits for me back in the day, and you know, it wouldn’t have been such an issue if they actually INCLUDED a right fist. The salt on the open wound? The sabers have holes in the tops in order to be attached to the rear skirt armor, so there’s no excuse why they couldn’t have just included saber blades. The HGUC kit here added a bit of Hajime Katoki/BEE-Craft styling, giving it a more mode look and coming out as the best of both worlds. It’s a neat touch that captures the look really well. Still, they’re awesome designs, and represent one of the coolest design styles ever.
Two sabers are stored on the butt as opposed to the backpack, but I’ll get more into those when I discuss the weapons. Instead of a standard “peg plus hole with armor covering it” you get this cool circle joint.The torso is much slimmed down and streamlined from the original artwork, looking more in-proportion.In the end, the HGUC GM Command is an awesome kit, despite that stupid flaw with the right hand. Well, this cool retcon didn’t last long, as Bandai eventually decided to consider them just variants of the original suits as opposed to replacements. It’s a great design, and a great army builder. It’s made out of ABS instead of the standard polycap plastic, so it doesn’t wear out as quickly.The head of this suit is my favorite part-it’s so sleek and awesome. It moves to each side with no obstruction from the skirt, which has a nice basic construction, although the front armor can’t be split. The coolest part is probably the ankles, though-like the original kit, the feet aren’t connected at the top, and inside, at an angle
