Exclusive “Final Battle” version of the Mighty Strike Freedom Gundam joins the METAL ROBOT Spirits figure line
A new, special-edition action figure has been announced for the “METAL ROBOT Spirits” line, featuring a battle-damaged version of the Mighty Strike Freedom Gundam from the hit animated film, Mobile Suit Gundam SEED FREEDOM.
The “METAL ROBOT Spirits” is a high-end line of die-cast, pre-painted, and finished toys known for its high level of detail, articulation, and premium feel.
This new release, the “Final Battle Ver.,” is designed to replicate the appearance of the iconic mobile suit after its intense and climactic battle with the Black Knight Squad in the movie’s finale.
The figure features an extensive, battle-damaged finish.
This is achieved through a combination of new, physically damaged, and broken sculpted parts, a special “damage paint” application, and a set of “damage markings.”
A number of other, new and special features are also included with this “Final Battle” edition.
A special pearl paint has been applied to various parts of the figure, which is designed to represent the shimmering particles that surround the suit when it is docked with the Proud Defender unit.
A new, special version of its “Futsunomitama” anti-ship sword is also included, which has been sculpted with a forced perspective to create more dynamic action poses.
In addition to these new parts, the set also comes with a new, miniature, non-articulated figure of the character Lacus Clyne.
The “METAL ROBOT Spirits <SIDE MS> Mighty Strike Freedom Gundam -Final Battle Ver.-” is a Premium Bandai exclusive item, priced at ¥29,700 (approx. $202 USD/£149 GBP).
Pre-orders for the figure are scheduled to open on the Premium Bandai website on Friday, the 10th of October, at 5:00 PM Japan Standard Time.
The figure is scheduled to be shipped to customers in April 2026.
