With the basic frame of the RX-78-7 completed before the end of the war, the mobile suit was put in storage for over a year. Upon increasing attacks from Zeon Remnants in Side 2, the Earth Federal Forces, rebuilt the RX-78-7, and using data from the NT-1 "Alex", the G-7 was born.
Creator's Notes: There was indeed an RX-78-7, presumably. It was basically a design done by Kunio Okawara and would later be adapted to be the NT-1 in Gundam 0080, much like the RX-78-4 and RX-78-5 would be adapted for the Thourough Bred manga, and RX-78-6 became the Murdock. So taking that into account, I decided to make it so the NT-1 and RX-78-7 were separate projects, yeilding similar results.
The pilot will be decided on within the RP.
Now to finish that Zeon suit I designed and actually think of stats for it, instead of just copying and pasting like I could do with this one.
