Tatsumi Group has published a mook (magazine-book) that compiles information about the Mobile Suits from the Gundam SEED sub-series. The book’s full title is Gundam Mobile Suit Coursebook – C.E.70-75 Mobile Suit Gundam SEED Series Arc. As implied by the covered years, it also includes units from the 2024 movie Gundam SEED Freedom.
The 160-page book covers not only Mobile Suits but also the pilot characters and other vehicles. But as the title implies, only the Mobile Suit pages will appear in color, with the other sections available in grayscale.
This book also includes content from most of the Cosmic Era side stories and MSV (Mobile Suit Variation) entries, such as C.E.73 Stargazer and the Astray sub-series up to VS Astray and Princess of the Sky. But while it obviously does not include the upcoming Gundam SEED Freedom Zero movie and the newly ongoing Gundam SEED Freedom Astray manga, the recently concluded Gundam SEED Eclipse is also notably missing from the lineup.
The book has a price tag of ¥1,980 (~$13.85), and it is available for purchase via Rakuten Books and Amazon Japan. The latter has also been confirmed to support international shipments for this book.
This SEED sub-series book is actually the fourth one in Tatsumi’s Gundam Mobile Suit compilation books, but it is the first one to feature an alternate universe outside of Universal Century. The group first published a book that focused on the U.C.0079-0080 One Year War era in August 2021. It then followed up with another book in November 2022 that covered U.C.0083-0087 era units from Stardust Memory, Zeta Gundam, and Gundam ZZ. The third book, published in September 2023, featured units in the U.C.0093-0097 period from Char’s Counterattack, Gundam Unicorn, Twilight Axis, and Gundam Narrative.
The Gundam Mobile Suit Coursebook – C.E.70-75 Mobile Suit Gundam SEED Series Arc book is now available for purchase.
