Misa Satsukino (Voiced by: Yuka Iguchi)

Mecha

Gundam Helios
A Gunpla created by combining elements from a variety of Gundams. It is named after the sun god Helios due to its huge wings, the way it looks when its fins are released, and the dazzling glow that emanates from the clear parts all over its body.

Blazing Gundam
Just as the Shining Gundam’s sibling is Rising Gundam, this Gunpla was customized based on the concept of God Gundam’s sibling. It is an ultra-fast, close-combat aircraft much lighter than the God Gundam it is based on.

Gundam Perfect Strike Freedom
Based on the Strike Freedom Gundam, this Gunpla combines the functionality of the Perfect Strike Gundam. The sword and launcher can connect together, allowing for more powerful shooting and melee attacks.

Gundam Live Lance Heaven
Though based on the Gundam Scythe Hell, this Gunpla has been customized with a design and coloring that evokes an angel, a motif that is the exact opposite of the Grim Reaper. When deployed, the active cloak transforms into six huge wings.

Gundam 00 Command Qan[T]
A customization of the 00 Qan[T] with elements from the SD Command Gundam. Not only does the additional armor improve its defense, but the numerous new armaments that support both close and long-range battle allow it to fight on all fronts.

Gundam Barbataurus
A customization of the Gundam Barbatos, it has been transformed into a four-legged Gunpla with a centaur motif by connecting two Gundam frames together.
