The RGM-89BM Jegan Blast Master was a custom Gunpla built by the Diver Yukki (aka Yukio Hidaka) of Force Build Divers. It was based on the RGM-89 Jegan from the 1988 anime film Mobile Suit Gundam: Char’s Counterattack. With the Jegan as a base, Yukki incorporated beam weapons from a wide range of Gundam series, including Gundam X‘s twin satellite cannon, Gundam ZZ‘s high mega cannon, Gundam Reconguista‘s beam rifles, Gundam SEED DESTINY‘s multi-phase beam cannon, Gundam AGE‘s SigMaxiss cannon and Gundam 00‘s GN Cannons. The sheer amount of firepower allowed Yukki to attack at maximum power from any range. However, the high amount of energy used by these weapons required Yukki to carefully manage the suit’s energy levels. The Jegan Blast Master served as Yukki’s unit during the battle for EL-Diver Sarah against the Coalition of Volunteers and the subsequent battle against out of control raid bosses. Two years later, Yukki participated in a restaging of the Lotus Challenge as a rehearsal battle to help Force BUILD DiVERS prepare for their final mission on Eldora. When that final mission resulted in Alus invading GBN from Eldora, Yukki joined the fight to protect GBN.
