Product Information

In the 1996 video game Not Treasure Hunter, James Arclight the protagonist of game has a facial structure similar to Char in UC.0093 and voiced by Shuichi Ikeda. The voice actor of Char. During the planning stages of the movie, the ν Gundam was originally named the "HS Gundam", or "Hi-S Gundam". According to Yoshiyuki Tomino, it was meant to mean "Higher than Char", thought he admitted he forgot how Char's name was spelled at the time, thus the "S".

An external tank used for propellant storage. The extra propellant greatly extends a mobile suit's operating range, and enables it to stay in combat longer. When the propellant is consumed, the tank can be discarded to reduce the mobile suit's weight. These tanks use a two-layered construction, with one layer containing propellant, and the other holding extra coolant. Char's archrival since their fateful encounter during the One Year War. Char and Amuro had their first encounter during the latter's escape from Side 7 with the crew of the White Base, though they did not see each other's face as they were piloting their mobile suits at the time. From that battle onward, Char would repeatedly challenge Amuro whenever they encountered one another on the battlefield, as Char wanted to defeat the Gundam in battle. He would meet Amuro face to face for the first time at Side 6, and while it is implied Char knew who Amuro was, he let him go, wanting only to best the young man in the battlefield. Thus, their rivalry was one of pride: both wanting to outdo the other. However, that would change after Amuro mistakenly kills Lalah, the object of both men's affection. From there, Char held a deep loathing of Amuro, and fought to kill him in the final battle at A Baoa Qu, though he stopped as he still had another matter to attend to. After the Battle of Solomon Char ventured from Side 6 to Side 5's Texas colony, where Colonel M'Quve had set a trap for the Gundam. Once inside Texas, Char was given a MS-14S Gelgoog Commander Type, which would finally allow him to fight on even grounds with the Gundam. However, when the battle came, Char found himself outclassed by Amuro, whose skills and Newtype abilities had now come to surpass his own. After the death of M'Quve and taking severe damage himself, Char was forced to flee the battle with his life.Char Aznable is also responsible for becoming a specific defined archetype for the Gundam series. Beyond simply a role, those that followed the Char Archetype oftentimes wore a mask and often shared similar goals, hence spawning a series of what are commonly referred to as "Char Clones." This phrase is made ambiguous however by the fact that at least two literal clones of Char existed: Full Frontal and Afranche Char. "Char Clones" characters based off similar characteristics to Char, in Gundam. That character usually serves the same purpose as Char in the story, as the primary rival of either the main protagonist or a significant supporting character, sometimes also having blond hair and blue eyes, usually shrouded in mystery and wears a mask or sunglasses, pilots red mobile suits and sometimes has an extremist plan in mind (For example some of these "Char Clones" tried to force the people on Earth to migrate into space just like Char had tried to do). It is also a common theme for the "Char Clone" to be related to the female lead in some way. Sometimes the "clone" is the father, brother, former lover, etc. of the female lead. A Char Clone is often an ace pilot. The RX-93 ν Gundam is one of the most advanced mobile suits during the Second Neo Zeon War in U.C. 0093, together with Char Aznable's MSN-04 Sazabi, it is used by Amuro Ray who also came up with its basic design. It was manufactured at Anaheim Electronics' Von Braun plant and completed in a short period of time (about three months) under the supervision of chief engineer October Saran. [1] [2] Its design is based on the average specification values of each successive generations of Gundam-type units from the original RX-78-2 Gundam to the MSZ-010 ΖΖ Gundam, and updated with state-of-the-art technologies introduced at the time. [3] Test data collected by various mobile suits, such as the YRA-90A μ Gundam and the RX-9 Narrative Gundam, were also used in its development.

Ka version of the ν Gundam model kit sports a nearly Full-Psycho-Frame body and has the ability to expose it by expanding as well as purging parts of the Gundam's armor. This state is dubbed "Invoke Mode". [6]

Tatsuya Yuukifrom Gundam Build Fighters is a rival of both main protagonists Reiji and Sei Iori. His battling style and mobile suit ( MS-06R-AB Zaku Amazing) are similar to Char's own. Tatsuya taking the alias (Meijin Kawaguchi) and using a large pair of large sunglasses as a disguise mirrors Char's Quattro Bajeena. In 2015, Origin version of Char appeared in a Japanese commercial for the "ZeonicToyota" Toyota Auris, driving the aforementioned vehicle with the skill of a professional driver.On March 12, U.C. 0093, he fights Amuro, who is piloting the RX-93 ν Gundam, in the Sazabi to settle the score for the last time, but is defeated. At that time, he is caught in an escape pod and disappears into the light of the Psycho-Frame, along with Amuro, who holds Axis from falling. Axis then changes course, and the mission ends in failure. The whereabouts of the two men after that are said to be completely unknown.

Char has at times shown a preference for casual clothing rather than dress uniforms. During his time as the leader of Neo Zeon, he was openly uncomfortable wearing his full military uniform, claiming he felt like a clown wearing it. Following Amuro's failure to stop Char in attempting to drop Fifth Luna, Amuro decided to design a mobile suit that would be able to combat Char's MSN-04 Sazabi. Unknown to Amuro, Char learnt of this and allowed Anaheim Electronics to pass on the psycho-frame technology for the ν Gundam's use. However, testing of this machine was interrupted when fighting between Londo Bell and Neo Zeon forces force Amuro and his girlfriend Chan Agi to take the ν Gundam with them to save everyone. The Nu Gundam and derived designs are the only Gundams with a triple face vent as opposed to the standard double face vent.The alias "Bajeena" bares similarities to the middle portion of Aznavour's birth name Shahnour Vaghinag Aznavourian (Շահնուր Վաղինակ Ազնավուրեան).
