Duchy of Zeon Mobile Suit
MS-06A Zaku II A Type

The first prototype of the Zaku II was completed by the Zeonic Company in August of UC 0077. Though this A type introduced external power cables and other improvements over the MS-05 Zaku, it lacked the shoulder shield and "spike armor" of the subsequent versions. The prototype was deemed unsatisfactory by project supervisor Kishiria Zabi, and another round of development began.

The color scheme shown here is derived from the March 1996 issue of the modeling magazine Hobby Japan.
