The Gun Blaster (RZ-052) (ガンブラスター also stylized as Gunblaster and Gunbluster in the Japanese release) is an Ankylosaurus-type of Zoid, and is one of over 200 species of bio-mechanical lifeforms that form the Zoid race depicted in TOMY's Zoids Franchise.
Overview
The Gun blaster is an Ankylosaurus-type Zoid used by the Helic Republic in the various wars on Zi.
Designed for fire support, the Gun Blaster's most distinctive feature is the array of twenty-two cannons built into its back. These weapons are designed to be fired as one mass assault, allowing the Gun Blaster to wipe out most anything that it faces. The Zoid is strong on defense as it is offense, being equipped with thick armor and a powerful omni-directional energy shield built into the twenty-four spikes along the side of its body. In addition to protecting the Zoid from weapons fire, the shield also provides protection against Electronic Warfare and jamming.
While slow and bulky, the Gun Blaster is surprisingly agile and able to traverse difficult terrain. In addition to its massive array, the Gun Blaster can use electro-magnetically charged teeth and its horn when forced into close quarters combat.
Battle Story Appearances
The Gun Blaster saw service in the early battles of the Helic Republic invasion of the Dark Continent. Shuu and the Republic forces were pinned down by Störmer's force of Dark Horns, and the Gun Blaster was sent in to turn the tide of the battle, its overwhelming firepower forcing Störmer to adopt another plan. He drew the Gun Blaster into narrow terrain where its cannons would be less effective, and the battle ended in a stalemate, Störmer's Horn charging the Gun Blaster and both Zoids fighting to a standstill.
The design was not destroyed in the meteor shower of ZAC 2056, and the Republic rebuilt the Gun Blaster prior to the ZAC 2101 invasion of the Dark Continent. Gun Blaster also showed to rescue the Ray Force from Berserk Fury and Grounchar's attacks, using its cannons to break down the Berserk Fury's shield and drive it back.
Media Appearances
The Gun Blaster does not appear in any of the anime series'. It is acquirable in the Zoids Saga Game Boy Advance games under the name Gun Blaster.
