CB-0000G/C Reborns Gundam/Cannon & CBY-001 1 Gundam

I was never a big fan of this MS but after seeing this repaint of the HG model I'm starting to change my mind.

To be honest I started to gain a lot more interest in this suit after learning about the "1 Gundam".


What do you think?

I really liked the design of this for some reason. I thought the 2 sided MS idea was kind of silly but I do like the basic MS design by itself. I'm glad they made this and if a HG model of it is made I think I'd like to pick it up.

Love the default colour scheme!
Apparently it's pronounced "AI Gundam" as in 愛 like love. wtf?!

From ガンプラの山を崩せ. Check out his site. He has done some amazing recolours. Great photography too!

  1. lol 1 Gundam after 0 Gundam? Wonder when's 2,3,4 Gundam and so on.

    It seems the HG is painted almost your favourite colours. No wonder why you like it. ^^

  2. I loved the Reborns in its Gundam form. It has the look of a final antagonist mecha and was the perfect counter to all of Celestial Being's Gundams. The Cannon form was just plain unnecessary.

  3. Is there somewhere I can find out what the 00P profile is saying? 1 Gundam looks pretty great, as does the Reborns recolour. I was alreadly looking forward to getting that kit, now I have to step up my game.

  8. That's a nice recolour. I struggle with high heeled mechs but I make an exception for this design. The proportions of the upper body, particularly the shoulders, look a lot nicer in the lineart imo.

  9. I prefer 1 Gundam over the double-sided Reborns Gundam IMHO. It's just me though, but the repainted Reborns is good though!

  10. I liked reborns bcuz it is bthe only MS which beat the hell out of 00Raiser, which i really hated because of its "cheat mode" that make setsuna unbeatable. ajust waiting for the 1/100 version...

  12. Reborns Gundam is actually not that bad, but the "cannon" side kinda spoilt it. I came across a Reborns Gundam recolor on the side last week and the scheme was similar to that of Nu Gundam, with the funnels as shield, if only i could find and remember where I saw it 1st.
