Not so long ago, we reported on the fact that the Sega Saturn Mobile Suit Gundam Side Story: The Blue Destiny games were getting cool action figures, and now the spiritual sequel to those games is getting its own model kit. Gundam Side Story 0079: Rise from the Ashes launched in 1999 on the Sega Dreamcast, and, like the Blue Destiny games, is played from a first-person perspective within the Mobile Suit's cockpit. It's this Suit which is getting the getting the Master Grade model kit treatment (thanks, Ollie Barder). Designed by Yutaka Izubuchi, the mech has been featured elsewhere in the wider Gundam universe, but this particular model comes in White Dingo livery. We already know this kit is going to be popular, as it's actually a reissue – Bandai is doing another batch in order to satisfy demand.
