Also, " Mobile Suit Gundam x Gild design iPhone XS/X Case Zeon Red / Zeon Black" (16,200 yen each including tax / shipping and handling charges not included) and " Mobile Suit Gundam UC x Gild design Duralumin Card Case Banagher Links /Liddy Marcenus " (13,824 yen each including tax, excluding shipping and handling fees), and " Mobile Suit Gundam Duralumin Card Case Gilen Zabi / Garma Zabi / Char Aznable " (13,824 yen each including tax, excluding shipping and handling fees), which were released in March 2017, will be re-released due to popular demand.

This product line combines the technology and sensibility of "GILD design," a manufacturer that boasts top-class domestic technology for products using the high-quality duralumin material "A2017," with the worldview of the "Mobile Suit Gundam" anime and the "Mobile Suit Gundam UC" OVA.

In addition, the cutting parts are manufactured by shaving one spot at a time with special engraving equipment.
A blade with a cutting edge of R0.2 mm (circular arc) is attached to the engraving equipment, and while rotating at 10,000 rpm, only 0.05 mm of the blade edge is used to shave the emblem in extremely fine detail. This precision and strong attention to detail have achieved a three-dimensional effect and processing strength that cannot be reproduced by printing.

In addition, the "exquisite contrast" between the coloring by anodizing and the duralumin base color (silver) by engraving. The "lightness" and "texture" can be recognized only when you hold it in your hand. The presence of the carved emblem is the ultimate product.

Mobile Suit Gundam x Gild design iPhone 8/7 Case Zeon Red / Zeon Black
Mobile Suit Gundam x Gild design iPhone XS/X case Zeon Red / Zeon Black
The emblem of the Principality of Zeon that appears in "Mobile Suit Gundam" is carved out of the iPhone 8/7 and iPhone XS/X cases.
The lineup consists of two types, Zeon Black and Zeon Red, with the bumper portion made of duralumin material "A2017" and the panel portion made of aluminum alloy material "A5052".
Zeon Red is red with silver (background color and emblem color), and Zeon Black is black with silver (background color and emblem color).

The bumper and panel are separated so that the panel can be attached or detached depending on the usage scenario, making it a flexible specification.

The iPhone 8/7 and iPhone XS/X compatible solid bumpers can be charged with Qi-compatible wireless chargers.
［Note 1] Wireless charging is not available when the A5052 aluminum alloy panel is attached to the bumper. (We recommend using the genuine Lightning cable that comes with the iPhone for charging.)

［Note 1] The thickness of the bumper will cause the iPhone to be 1.5mm away from the Qi-supporting wireless charger. Charging efficiency may be slightly lower than when the device is in close contact. Charging time may also vary depending on the output wattage and adapter voltage of the Qi-enabled wireless charger used.

Mobile Suit Gundam UC x Gild design Duralumin Card Case Banagher Links / Liddy Marcenus
This card case for business cards was designed in the image of Banagher Links and Riddy Marcenas, two characters from the OVA "Mobile Suit Gundam UC. The design and coloring of the case is based on the "RX-0 Unicorn Gundam" and "RX-0 [N] Unicorn Gundam 02 Banshee Norn," the aircraft that Banagher and Liddy Marcenas were both on.
The Banagher Links model has the Bisto Foundation logo engraved in the upper left corner, with a silver lid and wine red case. The Liddy Marcenas model has the Anaheim Electronics logo engraved in the upper left corner, with a dark blue lid and gold case.

The bearings (manufactured by NSK Micro Precision Co., Ltd.), which are four steel balls with a diameter of approximately 3 mm and are built into the sliding surface, are assembled by hand, one by one, by craftsmen who take their time while checking them under a microscope. The built-in high-precision bearing makes opening and closing the card case surprisingly smooth. In addition, the bearing is made of stainless steel and will never rust.

The above has resulted in a simple form that matches the business scene, and one business card for each character included in the main body is also enclosed.
In the internal mechanism of the main body, the 3-dimensional processing of the ejector opening makes it easy to take out business cards, and by processing a groove, business cards received can be smoothly inserted at the bottom of the body, making it a gem that is also easy to use.
It can hold up to 20 general business cards with a size of 91 x 55 mm and a thickness of 0.25 mm.
