RX-78NT-1 Gundam NT-1 "Alex"

   Primary Mobile Suit featured in the 1989 OVA Mobile Suit Gundam 0080: War in the Pocket OVA, designed by Yutaka Izubuchi. The first direct variant of the RX-78 to be animated, it helped pave the way for the appearance of other variants, such as those from Gundam 0083, as pivotal elements of the plot. In War in the Pocket, the Alex was developed to replace the RX-78-2, optimized for increased reaction time of Newtypes, though its test pilot was not a Newtype herself. With its panoramic cockpit, the Alex serves as a retconned technological link between the original series and Zeta Gundam. The Alex could be outfitted with a Chobham armour shell that offered it extra protection. Its data would be used for the GM Custom. The Chobham armour design would be used to reinforce the body of the GM Cannon II. Both of these later GM's appear in Gundam 0083, further bridging the gap between the original series and Zeta.

Q: May I use any of your images? A: You may not use the images we made ourselves, such as buttons and logos. We do not own the other images (screenshots, scans), so you are free to use them on your website. We only ask that you put a link back to us on the same page as the image. Many of our mecha cutouts took hours to create, so we desire due credit for our work. Do NOT link directly to our images; that is bandwidth theft and puts a huge strain on our server. If you want to use them, copy them to your own server. Our linking rule also applies if you are posting on a message board. Do NOT make image links in your posts as it also takes up bandwidth. We ask that you instead make a clickable link.
