The GN-9999 Transient Gundam is a mobile suit from Gundam Build Fighters Try. It is built and piloted by Wilfrid Kijima.

Technology & Combat Characteristics

Used by team Celestial Sphere's team leader, Wilfrid Kijima, the Transient Gundam's design is based on the various GN Drive equipped mobile suits appearing in Mobile Suit Gundam 00. The suit's primary weapon is the double-edged spear known as GN Partizan, and its other armaments include GN Vulcans and Beam Sabers. The GN Partizan function as both melee and ranged weaponry, it can also act as a Lance Bit that can separate further into two small Lance Bits. The suit is also equipped with a GN Field for defensive purposes, and its trump card is the Transient Burst - a customized system that grants the suit increase combat power. When airborne or in space, the Transient Gundam's feet are folded up.

Armaments

• GN Partizan

A large double-edged spear that doubles as both a melee and ranged weaponry. When swung, it can either fire a series of homing beam shots or a crescent-shaped beam. The GN Partizan can transform into a dedicated ranged combat form, known as shooting mode, when the larger spear tip opens up. In this mode, the GN Partizan can fire standard beam shots or a wide beam cannon-like blast depending on how much the spear tip spreads apart. It can also separate into two and function as Lance Bits. Furthermore, the weapon can be used for defensive purposes, its blades can deflect beam shots and a makeshift shield can be formed when the GN Partizan is spun. When required, the suit can be equipped with two of this weapon and by crossing them, a series of lightning bolt-like attacks can be released.

• Lance Bit

Each GN Partizan can function as a large remote controlled weaponry known as lance bit that can separate into two small lance bits. Regardless of the size, the lance bits are mainly used for close combat, but they also retain the GN Partizan's ranged combat capability.

• Beam Saber

A beam saber can be emitted from each of the arm-mounted beam emitters. The pair of beam sabers are used together with the small lance bits to perform the suit's killer move.

• GN Vulcan

• GN Smash Rifle

A custom GN beam rifle used by Gundam Portent, it is given to the Transient Gundam by Shia before the overtime battle during the finals of the U-19 Championship.

Special Equipment and Features

• GN Field

A particle-based defensive barrier used by mobile suits powered by a GN Drive, the GN Field is capable of blocking most beam and physical attacks.

• Transient Burst

A particle emission system, it drastically enhances the power of the Transient Gundam when activated. When the Transient Burst is used, the suit glows blue and three energy wings appear from its back.

Notes & Trivia

• This Gunpla shares many similarities with the GN-001 Gundam Exia, PPGN-001 Gundam Amazing Exia, and PPGN-001 Gundam Exia Dark Matter, including its overall design, placement of translucent parts, and its use of close quarters weaponry as its primary armament.
  • As Wilfrid Kijima has stated that he wants to become the next Meijin, his choice of Mobile Suit may be a reference to The third Meijin's use of Gundam Amazing Exia, and Gundam Exia Dark Matter.
• Transient Gundam is the third Mobile Suit to have the numbers 9999 on its model number, the first was the GX-9999 Gundam X Maoh and then the XM-X9999 Crossbone Gundam Maoh.
• Transient Gundam is also the only GN-type Gunpla that produces a GN particle coloration that wasn't being used in the original Mobile Suit Gundam 00 series, which is blue. Whereas Celestial Being suits emit green GN particles, antagonist suits emit red/orange GN particles and ELS-assimilated suits emit purple GN particles.
• The Transient Burst is very similar to the Quantum System utilized by the 00 Qan[T].
• The energy phenomenon produced by the Transient Burst resembles the Celestial Being insignia.
