Bandai Hobby RG #26 MS-06R-2 Johnny Ridden's Zaku II

Bandai Hobby RG 1/144 #26 MS-06R-2 Johnny Ridden’s Zaku II

From the Mobile Suit Variations (MSV) series comes Johnny Ridden’s distinctive MS-06R-2 Zaku II, reproduced in Bandai’s Real Grade 1/144 lineup with dense mechanical detailing, refined proportions, and the high-mobility equipment that defines this famous custom machine.

The MS-06R-2 is one of the most heavily upgraded members of the Zaku II family, featuring enlarged leg thrusters, reinforced armor, and specialized high-mobility components designed for space combat. Johnny Ridden’s personal unit is instantly recognizable thanks to its striking red and black color scheme, giving the completed model a powerful ace-pilot appearance.

The Real Grade construction packs extensive mechanical detail into the compact 1/144 scale body. Layered armor sections, exposed frame elements, panel separation, and fine surface molding help create a more realistic mechanical appearance while preserving the classic proportions of the Zaku II design.

The large high-mobility leg units are a major visual highlight. Additional thrusters and external equipment give the lower body a heavier, more technical appearance than a standard Zaku II, reinforcing the unit’s role as a high-performance space-use variant.

Articulation throughout the shoulders, elbows, waist, hips, knees, and ankles allows the model to achieve a wide variety of combat poses. The flexible construction supports aggressive firing stances, forward-leaning movement poses, and airborne configurations that suit the unit’s high-mobility character.

A complete selection of classic Zaku weaponry is included. The machine gun provides a versatile ranged option, while the bazooka supports heavier attack poses. The Heat Hawk adds a close-combat weapon, allowing the model to be displayed in a more aggressive melee configuration.

The distinctive shoulder armor and commander-style head help emphasize Johnny Ridden’s custom specification, while included Realistic Decals and marking stickers provide unit insignias, caution markings, and additional surface details that enhance the ace-pilot appearance.

With its vivid red and black color scheme, heavily upgraded high-mobility legs, detailed Real Grade construction, and classic Zaku weapon loadout, the RG 1/144 MS-06R-2 Johnny Ridden’s Zaku II is an excellent choice for MSV fans, Zeon collectors, and builders who enjoy highly detailed ace-pilot mobile suits.
