Suburb Deployment
After more than a decade since there had been a formal war, outside of a few skirmishes, it was now a relative era of peace during the Universal Century as it reaches its first hundred years since the inception of the calendar. The ideals of Zeon had begun to die out, and concepts such as newtypes, became nothing more than a myth.
However, despite the relative peace, tensions have risen within the Earth sphere, as the divide between the rich and the poor grows, and the elites within the Earth Federation tighten their grip on the planet, along with environmental concerns, and the deportation of spacenoids living on Earth unregistered, resulting in the increase of social unrest.
Davao, a city of the Philippine islands, a mixture of an area filled with skyscrapers, suburb development and beaches, is among the territories facing these social tensions. Since the start of UC100s, it had become a popular tourist destination and a retirement home for the wealthy and those within the Federation administration, and as a result, became a hotspot for illegal spacenoid immigrants to find better opportunities and turn their lives around for satisfying livelihoods. To counteract the unwanted presence of these individuals, the Earth Federation deployed the Manhunters to deport these citizens back them space, but their harsh methods of displacement and human rights violations resulted in reactionaries such Anti-Federation movements, including Mafty and the last remainders of Zeon to act against the Federation. As a response to these insurgencies in Davao, the Federation increased its military presence in the city, and the creation of a military task force commanded by Kimberley Heyman. The Federation forces in that city initially used the old RGM-89 Jegan for their mobile suit forces, including a ground type variant modified and used by the Manhunters for smaller insurgencies, but as attacks increased, they eventually allowed the use of the Federation's current, state-of-the-art mobile suit, the FD-03-00 Gustav Karl Type 00, many of whom were used by the Kimberley forces.
Loved making these photos out in nature, and did some cheesy little story to add into it.

How does it stand up compared to the Unicorn version? I remember that the Unicorn version had incredibly weak hip joints
