SD Sengokuden Bushin Kourin Hen

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.

SD Sengokuden Bushin Kourin Hen is a subline of Bandai's SD Gundam franchise.

The rising popularity of BB Senshi Sangokuden led to Bandai doing the same thing with another oft-fictionalised era of history, Japan's own Warring States period. Unlike Sangokuden, the model line is not supported by a comic or any specific storyline, but runs entirely on recreating known samurai, based on remolding early SD Gundams and basing them on the character designs from Koei's Samurai Warriors games.

The models released thus far are:

  • Takeda Shingen Gundam (archetype is the original RX-78-2)
  • Kenshin Uesugi Gundam (archetype is the Zeta Gundam)
  • Kanetsugu Naoe Gundam (archetype is the RX-178 Gundam mk II)
  • Date Masamune Gundam (actually based on a ninja-type SD Gundam instead of samurai)
  • Sanada Yukimura Gundam (archtype is the Nu Gundam)
  • Oda Nobunaga Gundam (first large-size model)
  • Toyotomi Hideyoshi Gundam (archetype is the Gundam F91)
  • Tokugawa Ieyasu Gundam (archetype is very similar to Takeda Shingen)
