GRACSHAW x Mobile Suit Gundam is a licensed limited-edition collection of open-face motorcycle helmets launched in Malaysia on 7 September 2026, priced at RM498 per unit. Produced by Malaysian helmet brand GRACSHAW, the collection translates the identities of three iconic Mobile Suits from the 1979 anime series into practical, road-legal headgear.

What Makes the GRACSHAW Gundam Helmet a Collector's Item?
The GRACSHAW x Mobile Suit Gundam helmet is a limited-production collectible with only 3,000 units manufactured globally, each accompanied by a numbered card matching the helmet's production number. The RX-78-2 Gundam version is the most common at 1,500 units, while the MS-06F Zaku II is the rarest at just 500 units.
According to the source article by Firdaus Razani on Careta, the collaboration is not merely a graphic application but an attempt to translate each Mobile Suit's identity into a functional helmet. The Char's Zaku II variant, for instance, uses a colour reference from Bandai figures—a blend of pink and dark maroon tones—rather than a simple bright red, a detail that carries significant value for dedicated Gundam enthusiasts.
"Only 3,000 units of the GRACSHAW x Mobile Suit Gundam helmet will be produced, with the MS-06F Zaku II variant limited to just 500 units worldwide."
Which Gundam Mobile Suit Designs Are Available?
Three Mobile Suits from the original 1979 series are featured: the RX-78-2 Gundam (white, Earth Federation Forces), the MS-06F Zaku II (green, Principality of Zeon standard unit), and the MS-06S Char's Zaku II (the special unit associated with Char Aznable, the Red Comet).
The selection of these three designs is deliberate, as they represent the most significant identities in the original Mobile Suit Gundam universe. The RX-78-2 Gundam is the iconic white Mobile Suit of the Earth Federation Forces, while the green MS-06F Zaku II represents a main unit of the Principality of Zeon. The MS-06S Char's Zaku II completes the collection as the unit synonymous with Char Aznable.
"The GRACSHAW Gundam helmet collection features three designs from the 1979 series: RX-78-2 Gundam, MS-06F Zaku II, and MS-06S Char's Zaku II, each representing a distinct faction or character from the anime."
Why Did GRACSHAW Choose the Open-Face Glaive Model?
GRACSHAW selected the Glaive, an open-face helmet with a dual-visor system, because its simpler shell design allows the colours, patterns, and mechanical details of each Mobile Suit to stand out more effectively. The open-face format is also commonly used among urban riders in Malaysia for its ventilation, visibility, and convenience in stop-and-go traffic.
A key difference for the Gundam collection is the inclusion of a rear ducktail as standard equipment. On the regular Glaive, this component is sold separately as an optional accessory. For the Gundam versions, the ducktail is designed as an integral part of the helmet and cannot be purchased separately, and it features official collaboration licensing details.
"The GRACSHAW Glaive open-face helmet was chosen for the Gundam collection because its simpler shell design allows the Mobile Suit colours and mechanical details to be more prominently displayed."
Where Can You Buy the GRACSHAW Gundam Helmet in Malaysia?
The GRACSHAW x Mobile Suit Gundam helmet is available exclusively through selected authorised GRACSHAW dealers across Malaysia, including Roda Kota, Bikerz Garaj, Serdang Motorcycle, Super LS Motor Parts Jalan Ipoh, Welly Sungai Buloh, Tokan Helmet, BLH Motor, WK Motorsport, Ann Seng Motor, CKT Motor, Hock Lee Motor, and the GRACSHAW Concept Store Hock Lee.
Sales began on 7 September 2026 at RM498 per unit, while stock lasts. Given the limited production run and the individual numbering on each unit, the collection is positioned not only for daily riding use but also as a collectible item for Mobile Suit Gundam fans in Malaysia.
"The GRACSHAW Gundam helmet is sold exclusively through 12 authorised dealers in Malaysia, including Roda Kota, Bikerz Garaj, and the GRACSHAW Concept Store Hock Lee, at RM498 per unit."
Who Is This For in Malaysia?
This helmet is designed for Malaysian motorcycle riders who are also fans of the Mobile Suit Gundam franchise, particularly those who prefer open-face helmets for urban commuting in cities like Kuala Lumpur. The RM498 price point positions it as a premium but accessible collectible for enthusiasts seeking licensed merchandise with practical road use.
The open-face format is well-suited to Malaysia's tropical climate and urban traffic conditions, offering better ventilation and visibility than full-face alternatives. The SIRIM certification ensures compliance with local safety standards, making it a viable option for daily use. However, the limited production of 3,000 units and the numbered cards suggest that many buyers may treat this as a collector's item rather than a primary riding helmet.
"This helmet is ideal for Malaysian Gundam fans who ride motorcycles in urban areas and want a SIRIM-certified, open-face helmet that doubles as a numbered collectible."
