Hi Hello, info dump to me about the zakus and their weapons please. The gundam wiki is shit when it comes to that kind of info
I absolutely the Zaku line weapons. Specifically the machine guns and heat hawks. The Federation mobile suits and their lightsabers are... cool, I guess, but I like Jedi and the Feddies have a shit aesthetic the Principality of Zeon VERY MUCH being genocidal maniacs and evil. Unfortunately, the Zaku is a sexy piece of machinery.
The first one, the ZXM-1, was basically a glue gun combined with a tommy gun in appearance and there aren't a LOT of models that use it (like model kits and figurines) because it was a prototype 100mm gun if I recall correctly.
One cool thing about all the Zaku machine guns is that they pretty much all (except one or two) have a really cool Lewis Gun/Degtyaryov type design. The last prototype before the One Year War had the drum magazine on the side and it looked goofy, but for the iconic 'zaku machine gun' we all know and love - the M-120A1 - It located the drum to the top. I personally like the ZMP-50D model that has the drum mag offset to the top-right and has a rounded foregrip with a pattern for easier gripping. Both have an adjustable foregrip that pops out so it can be held like a sten gun, but the ZMP-50D was for the MS-06JC Zaku II which was basically a ground infantry model made for desert and jungle environments. The ZMP-50D and that Zaku are my 2nd favorites.
My favorite Zaku, the MS-06FZ Zaku II Kai that was introduced in my favorite OVA Mobile Suit Gundam 0080: War in the Pocket, had the most varied weaponry IMO. Obviously it had the shoulder shield, some grenades, and the signature heat hawk but it used the MMP-80 90MM machine gun which kinda looks like if an MP5 and an MP40 had a baby and was upscaled for mechs. Box magazine, bulky and not as skinny or sci-fi as the ZMP-50D or other disc drum magazine guns. It also had a folding stock and was more or less used like an actual gun some more than most machine guns.
War In the Pocket in general felt different in that way. They used EVERYTHING: the H&L-SB25K Bazooka, a panzerfaust-style single-shot rocket launcher called the Sturm Faust, and the Gouf model's iconic heat sword. On top of that, they also had a unique helmet model called the Fritz, which basically looked like a Stahlhelm but also probably was designed to look vaguely like a samurai helmet as well - however slightly.
It also, to me, is the squattest Zaku and looks the most intimidating as far as the front-line Zaku are concerned - and it was the final iteration that Zeon produced during the One Year War, it was basically the most advanced unit that kinda got pushed to special forces and small-scale use because it only entered use one month before the war ended. But it's the Zaku with the fattest, most sloped chest armor and I love it so much.
tl;dr: i love the mech

New Paper Craft: Simple MS-06JC Zaku II Free Gundam Papercraft Download
New Papercraft has been published at PaperCraftSquare: Link: http://www.papercraftsquare.com/simple-ms-06jc-zaku-ii-free-gundam-papercraft-download.html Paper Craft Name: Simple MS-06JC Zaku II Free Gundam Papercraft Download Description:
This gundam paper model is a simple MS-06JC Zaku II, an unit first appeared in the Mobile Suit Gundam: The 08th MS Team series, the papercraft is created by AnimeMania.
A modified variant of the MS-06J, The JC-Type featured improved rocket thrusters which were slightly more powerful than those fitted on the standard J-type. The most significant change to the design of the Zaku was the movement of the cockpit.
It was moved higher up on the chest and in the center behind the T-piece armor rather than on the side of the T. The cockpit was also redesigned. The control sticks were moved to the sides of the seat and more screens were added. Despite these modifications, the two models were essentially the same in appearance. [Source: wikia]
