HG Juggernaut General Purpose Type
The Juggernaut General Purpose Type brings one of the most peculiar machines from 86 -Eighty Six- to the display case. Once assembled, it stands around 8 cm tall and trades the usual humanoid silhouette for four articulated legs, a compact cockpit, and the 57mm smoothbore cannon mounted on its back. This general configuration adds two 12.7mm heavy machine guns on the sub-arms, as well as cable anchors to recreate its rapid movements through ruins. The cockpit can be opened, and the set includes a Scavenger support unit, scale figures of Kaie sitting and Lena standing, a base, and marking stickers. The Juggernaut appears from episode 1 of 86 -Eighty Six-, “Undertaker,” when it is discovered that the Republic of San Magnolia's supposed autonomous machines have human pilots. That is also its irony: the name means “unstoppable force,” but in the story, it is a light machine with minimal protection, whose survival depends on the skill of the Eighty-Six. Its arachnid form and auxiliary equipment allow for the creation of a military scene unlike that of a conventional mecha.
