Interesting Facts:
- Before there were five Gundams in the After Colony Era, there was only one - and it existed strictly on paper. It was AC 180 - fifteen years before they would send their own respective custom-built Gundams to wage guerrila warfare on Earth - and the five eccentric scientists Doctor J, Professor G, Instructor H, Doktor S and Master O, had just completed designing the first mobile suit of that era, the OZ-00MS Tallgeese. Seeing their work being put to oppressive use in the form of mass-produced Leos - and spawned by the assassination of space colony political leader Heero Yuy - the five scientists decided to design their own mobile suit which could overpower OZ's forces.
- This mobile suit was the XXXG-00W0 Wing Gundam Zero, and it was a design to truly be feared. In addition to being extremely maneuverable, the Wing Zero was a variable mobile suit, capable of transforming into a fighter-like "neo-bird mode" for added speed and mobility. Sporting Gatling-like machinecannons, wing-mounted vulcan guns and beam sabers, its firepower was topped by an extremely powerful twin buster rifle, capable of wiping out entire groups of mobile suits in a single shot.
- However, one more factor put the Wing Zero above everything else: the cockpit's "ZERO System," which allowed the pilot's mind to interface directly with the Gundam's combat computer. Although the exact nature of the ZERO System's operation is unclear, it appeared to operate by "sampling" the pilot's thoughts and, combining them with current combat data, presented the pilot with various alternate outcomes. Thus, depending on the pilot's mood, the ZERO System could tell him/her how to achieve total victory... or decisive defeat.
- Nevertheless, the mental stresses the ZERO System would place on the pilot would be to great for any ordinary human to handle, and even the five mad scientists saw the dangerous turn their work was taking. And thus, the Wing Gundam Zero project was shelved. A copy of the plans went with each of the five scientists when they broke up and went underground to pursue their own individual plans for revolution against OZ. The Wing Zero design would serve as a base model for the five Gundams that would actually be built and sent to Earth.
- In AC 195, unfortunate circumstances placed Gundam Sandrock pilot Quatre Raberba Winner in space without a Gundam, with a dead father, and with enemies of the very space colonists he was fighting to free. Wracked by a serious mental imbalance, Quatre discovered the abandoned work of the five scientists, and he built the Wing Zero. Mindless of its dangerous ZERO System, Quatre took off to destroy anyone and everyone fighting in space. Though his mental condition was temporary, the Wing Zero's power proved truly terrible, as Quatre used it to destroy an entire space colony. After that, the Wing Gundam Zero would pass from one pilot to another until it landed in the hands of former OZ pilot Zechs Merquise, and then Gundam pilot Heero Yuy - the only humans known to actually master the ZERO System by making use of its advantages while preventing it from driving them mad.
- The Wing Gundam Zero, the ultimate mobile suit of the Gundam Wing world, was designed in AC 180 by five scientists who had helped develop the Earth Alliance's first military mobile suits. Having seen the products of their work used to brutally subjugate the space colonies, these five scientists set out to create a new mobile suit that would surpass the Alliance's weapons.
- However, they did too good a job. The Wing Gundam Zero's raw power, and the dangerous stress it would place on its human pilot, so frightened its creators that they never completed their work. For fifteen years the Wing Gundam Zero existed only in blueprint form, a base design from which each of the five scientists developed his own Gundam for use against the tyrannical Alliance. At last, in AC 195, Gundam pilot Quatre Raberba Winner discovers the blueprints and brings this original Gundam to life.
- Specially designed for space combat, the Wing Gundam Zero sports an array of powerful thrusters and can transform into a high-speed "neo bird mode." It's armed with beam sabers, pop-up machine cannons in its shoulders, and a devastating twin buster rifle. However, thanks to the Zero System - a unique control system that connects the pilot's mind directly to the Gundam's combat computer - the Wing Gundam Zero's most dangerous and unpredictable weapon is its human pilot.
