SEED FREEDOM MSV Adds Two Simplified Production Machines
The MSV format gives SEED FREEDOM a place to answer the setting question the films left open: how the lead machines would be rebuilt and flown outside Compass.
Reporting from 1 source: Inside.
Mobile Suit Gundam SEED FREEDOM MSV began in the December issue of Monthly Hobby Japan, released October 23, and its first installment introduced two machines: the Rising Freedom CDE Spec and the Immortal Justice CDE Spec. They are simplified production versions of the Rising Freedom Gundam and Immortal Justice Gundam, built for organizations other than Compass. Machine settings will also appear on the official Gundam SEED site from November.
The magazine run is only one outlet for the material. The mobile suit settings are set to go up sequentially on the official Gundam SEED site starting in November, so the CDE Spec drawings will circulate beyond the print issue.
The mechanical side is handled by Kunio Okawara's setting drawings and Studio Nue's Shigeru Morita on machine settings, with the magazine's own modelers building new examples. Monthly Hobby Japan's December 2026 issue is priced at 1,980 yen.
