Well, according to the MG manual, the RX-78GP02A's atomic bazooka is made by
A.E./Zim, which I assume means Anaheim Electronics/Zimmad.

Whoa, I thought Kai was Japanese for Custom? The Powered GM was based on the C
Type, not the Custom. At any rate, so was the Powered GM not a mass-produced MS?
Also, another question I was going to ask earlier, is the extra armor on the
Powered GM a sort of full armor package, underneath you would find a regular C
Type, or its it an upgrade package, that replaces old components with new ones?
I guess we need an MG kit huh?
