Bandai has released the Mobile Suit Gundam shield-themed umbrella, which is now officially on sale through its official channels, priced at 6930 JPY.
This folding umbrella is modeled after the iconic irregular shields from the Gundam animation series. When fully opened, the canopy extends to cover the user down to the waist. Four distinct variants are available, themed after the RX-78-2 Gundam, Gouf, Principality of Zeon Earth Attack Force, and Char’s Custom Zaku. The RX-78-2 variant carries the suit’s classic red and white colorway, instantly recognizable to long-time fans. Each unit comes with a matching storage sleeve printed with its corresponding mobile suit’s official insignia.
The umbrella weighs only 360g, easy to carry for daily trips. The canopy is made of polyester, with fiberglass ribs for structural durability.
Bandai previously launched Gundam-themed rain shoe covers, completing a full set of IP-branded rainy-day gear. That line sold out almost immediately after release, drawing massive fan demand.
