Information: The Gundam Ez8 is an upgrade to the RX-79[G] Ground Type Gundam basically. It's piloted by Shiro Amada as he leads the 08th team's mission to find the Zeon base. He obtains the suit when his old Ground Type was wrecked in a fight with the Zeon's Apsaras mobile armor. Parts are very limited, so the engineers that rebuilt his suit used different parts and made some improvements to the suit overall. Improvements include thicker chest armoring and a pair of 35MM machineguns (not vulcans) in the head. It actually does still have one vulcan embedded in the chest measuring at 12.7MM.
