Alus, the artificial protector of the planet Eldora, classified the New People living on the surface as invaders and relentlessly attacked them using mobile suits based on Gunpla designs from GBN on Earth. However, his efforts were repeatedly frustrated by the BUILD DiVERS defending the New People, so he decided to learn from his enemy. The result was the AGP-X1 Alus Core Gundam, a duplicate of Hiroto Kuga’s PFF-X7 Core Gundam. Like the Core Gundam, the Alus Core was smaller than a standard mobile suit and utilized the PLANETS System to attach different armors for specific combat roles. The Alus Core’s outward appearance was dramatically different from the Core Gundam, and it lacked eyes and a V-fin. The Alus Core Gundam could be controlled remotely by Alus or by his Guard Eye AI units, and its head rings glowed red when Alus was in direct control. The Alus Core Gundam’s armaments included a core spray gun and hand-generated beam blades. Multiple copies of the Alus Core Gundam were created to allow various armor packs to be used simultaneously.
