RX-121-2 Gundam TR-1 (Hazel II)

DOWNLOAD

The RX-121-2 Gundam TR-1 [Hazel II] is a RGM-79Q GM Quel (Hazel Reserve Unit) stationed aboard the Titans Test Team mothership Aswan for parts exchanges, which has been equipped with a tri booster unit. This tri booster unit is a device with high thrust for use in assault operations, and the plan was to test it with the Hazel, but when the Hazel Reserve Unit is converted to the Hazel II this equipment is used for its main thrusters. However, because the Hazel II was constructed in a hurry, its balance couldn't be considered entirely satisfactory. The designation "Early Type" refers to the machine in the first stage of its conversion from Hazel Reserve Unit to Hazel II, before a crest-shaped sensor unit is installed in its head. The machine's colors are also the same as those of the RGM-79Q GM Quel on which it is based, and it has not yet been painted with the Titans Test Team's characteristic yellow pinstripes.

While its head remains unchanged from the Hazel Reserve Unit, the Hazel II Early Type is equipped with the same backpack and shoulder units as the original Hazel. However, since it doesn't carry shield boosters, its shoulders are usually fitted with multipurpose launchers rather than holding grips. It also lacks the movable booster pod of the original RX-121 Gundam TR-1 Hazel, since the attachment point is taken up by the tri booster unit.
