The RB-79PP Polypodball is a custom Gunpla appearing in Gundam Build Divers GIMM & BALL's World Challenge.

Technology & Combat Characteristics[]

A custom Gunpla based on the 1/100th scale MG RB-79 Ball (Shark Mouth Ver.), it is built and piloted by Azuma Carl Thompson, who goes by BALL in GBN. It was originally a space-use Mobile Pod but ended up as it is due to Azuma's modifications. Azuma intended the Polypodball's design to be this way in order to appeal to girls and his thought that it was unfair for Gundams to have legs despite being mostly space-use.

The Polypodball's legs are made of junk parts found in a hobby shop by Azuma, but it doesn't give the impression that the Ball's legs were carelessly applied thanks to Azuma's natural talent and careful attention in building it. By attaching the leg units to Polypodball, it becomes usable in terrain other than space. But because of this, no other armaments can be attached to the Mobile Pod and Azuma has no intentions of modifying the Polypodball any further.

Armaments[]

  • 180mm Cannon
The Ball's standard low-recoil cannon, it is mounted to the top of the Polypodball just as it is normally. The cannon was destroyed by the AMX-004DMD Qubeley Damned, but later replaced.
  • G.H.L-M.A.D GUN
The "Great Hyper Luxury-Multiple Armament Device" Gun, it is a powerful beam cannon with both offensive and defensive capability. It was built by JIMM and BALL based on the GHL-TBD developed by Shimoda.

Variants[]

  • Polypodball Speaker
This version replaces the 180mm Cannon with a very large speaker capable of playing sounds and music. It is called the "Urusai Form" by BALL, who uses it to play the songs of his favorite pop group Petit Rouge. Due to its large size it creates a considerable blind spot, and it interferes with the Polypodball's own sensors when operated at full volume. It is destroyed by the Gundam Noise Canceller.
  • Polypodball Triple
A variation of the Polypodball made by attaching a smaller 1/144th HGUC Ball onto the top and then another Haropla Ball Haro with a tiny cannon on top of that one. It is nicknamed the "Skewer-Dumpling Form" (串団子形態?) by BALL because of its resemblance to kushi-dango.
  • Polypodball Octopus
A variant of the Polypodball with four more legs attached to its top side in place of the cannon. Because it now has eight legs it is referred to as the Octopus, it has also been referred to in a heated moment as the "upside-down mayhem form" (上を下への大騒ぎ形態?). The stated intent of the design is to confuse enemies as to which side is up, though no one ever seems to fall for it.
