As development continued on the RGC-80 GM Cannon during the last weeks of the One Year War, Earth Federation Forces engineers continued tinkering with the design of the RX-77-2 Guncannon, refining it to be a standalone combat unit rather than simply a fire support mobile suit. One reincarnation of the Guncannon was the test model RX-77-3 Guncannon Heavy Custom. Although essentially little more than a retooled Guncannon, the Heavy Custom was considered a success, featuring better armor, improved 240mm cannons, and a grenade rack on its left hip armor. A Type D variant with a different weapons loadout was also created. The Heavy Custom remained in use as late as UC 0087.

At long last, Glow of Youth by @OZKai, a bit of #Gunpla history, is framed and on the wall. So happy to have it.
Should have done this ages ago, but here’s all the Victory Gundam settei scans that I received from @Gamer101_123 last year.
Character designs by Hiroshi Osaka with dates for most of them (contains some duplicates)
