Gunbarrel Strike

Any reason why I can't find much about this suit, on this site and the internet in general?

Most of this unit's info can be found here. It appeared in SEED-MSV (Gundam SEED Mobile Suit Variations), Mobile Suit Gundam SEED DESTINY ASTRAY (manga), Mobile Suit Gundam SEED X ASTRAY (manga), Mobile Suit Gundam SEED: Never-Ending Tomorrow (PS Game), and Mobile Suit Gundam SEED DESTINY ASTRAY (photonovel). Beyond that, I'm afraid there's not much info on it.

It depends whether you're looking for the Gunbarrel Strike, or the Gunbarrel Dagger. The latter is pretty much covered by valkyriepilot above, but if you mean the actual Strike fitted with the Gunbarrel, as the topic title suggests, I don't think it ever appeared anywhere. The Strike Gundam never used the Gunbarrel striker that I know of.

The Gunbarrel Strike, to my knowledge, only appears in the Gameboy Advance game Gundam Seed: Tomo to Kimi to Senjou de, and even then it's part of a "what-if" scenario that branches off of the Seed anime. As for the unit itself, there's not much to say; it uses the Strike's beam rifle and shield along with the Gunbarrel Striker's weapons.

To me it looks much like a simple E.A. GAT-01 Dagger that's been outfitted with a GAT-X105 Strike Gundam armor outfit and a modified Mobieus Zero that has the ability to play the role of a core fighter, backup unit, Striker Pack and a Mu La Flaga Mobieus Zero unit. What is their to talk about except it's development which might the most interesting aspect about it. However, the functionality of the suit seems to be apparent simply by seeing and studing it's exterior design. A re-modified GAT-01 Strike Dagger that's been enhanced to utillize AQME-X Striker Packs for the use of ace E.A. Natural MS pilots with excellent spatial awareness.

You're confusing what was linked and what's being discussed. The Dagger is not the same suit as the Strike Dagger. The Gunbarrel Strike is a Strike Gundam equipped with the Gunbarrel.

Yes, here's a picture of the MS in question:

EDIT: Semi-OT, but has it ever been solidly stated whether the Gunbarrel has beam cannons or railcannons? The GBA game depicts the weapons as beam cannons, and I believe Never-Ending Tomorrow does likewise, but the information from the website says they're solid.

Well, I dunno how official it is, but the Gundam SEED MSV short depicts the Gunbarrel Dagger as having single barrel beam cannons. Which is logical, as downsizing its armament from twin rail guns would make little sense if you kept the same type of gun.

No, there was never a "Gunbarrel Strike Gundam" released. There was a 1/144 HG Gunbarrel Dagger, so if you want a Gunbarrel Strike you'd have to
1. Buy the 1/144 HG Gunbarrel Dagger
2. Buy a 1/144 HG Strike Gundam
3. Mount the Gunbarrel Striker onto the Strike Gundam.

:roll: Considering that the Gunbarrel is slightly more heavily armed than the Moebius Zero, I imagine a standard Moebius would not last terribly long against it.

Did you even read the thread at all before posting this? It has been quite clearly explained what the Gunbarrel Strike is and where it appears. It's not exactly a confusing concept.

Yeah looks like the Gunbarrel Strike to me, by the way where did you find that image. Links if you have them?

Alright, thanks for covering that up. And somewhat off topic, but I had a question on another suit. Was the ZGMF-X56S/η Impulse ever confirmed to be a real suit? I know there was one for the Gaia, Chaos, Abyss and Destiny, but what about the Saviour and Legend?

No, the X56S/η Silhouette was never confirmed as anything.
No, there was never a Silhouette based on either the Legend or the Saviour.

So there's still no news or information on what the X56S/η Silhouette might resemble? Or does it even exist? I would like to think of it as the unrevealed Silhouette (ala Testament and Regenerate until the MSVs), but I would be thinking too far ahead.

It just doesn't exist, either yet or at all. It's the exact same thing as with the missing GAT-03 in the EA's MP suit line. The break in the model numbers might just mean that it was part of a different set, though not too likely.

The Saviour had the Proto-Saviour, and the Legend had the Providence ZAKU, pretty much nulling the point of making a setup for the Impulse to test the units as was with the Destiny Silhouette.

If it doesn't exist, then it's just too bad...I certainly wouldn't mind seeing another Silhouette in the MSVs...

Well, imagine an Exus pack on a Windam (Beambarrel Striker? :D ). Neo would have been on a roll...
