zaku ii
A mecha from the Gundam series. Notable because it has the distinction of being the first robot featured during the beginning of the entire franchise.
The MS-06 Zaku II is the main combat mobile suit of the Principality of Zeon during the One Year War. Originating from Mobile Suit Gundam as the Zaku II F/J, there have been several variations of this mobile suit. Characterized by its domed head, spiked shoulder, one eye/head-mounted camera, and (typical) dark green color.
In universe, the deployment of this MS in vast numbers was the direct cause for the development of the RX-78-2 Gundam by the Earth Federation. Years after the end of The One Year War, several captured Zaku II units were kept in use by the EF ground forces.
In real life, the Zaku II was designed by Ookawara Kunio in the late 70s.
