    GCA-150 Sabretooth Exceed

    An accessory for High Grade 1/144 G-Exes, Shaldoll and G-Exes Jackedge. GCA-150 Sabretooth Exceed transforms from Jet mode to the Sabre Thrusters and Sabre Blaster.

    "Creating the G-Exes had been a huge step forward in repelling the Vagan. As a compliment to the AGE-1, the suit excelled, being able to match the Gundam's speed and firepower. With a suit almost as powerful as the Gundam, there was finally a testbed for new technology intended for the AGE-2, without risking modifying the Gundam, the best defense against the Vagan. With this in mind, Madorna Factory set about creating the "Exceed"s, optional equipment for the G-Exes to test technology which would later be adopted into the AGE-2.

    The first of Madorna Factory's creations was the GCA-150 Sabretooth Exceed. A field test of transforming technology, the Sabretooth's main goal was to gather battle data on the effectiveness of a blaster being used as a jet's nosecone. In addition, the Sabretooth packed 3 remote-controlled Fang Bits, powerful blasters for swarm tactics, equipped with the ability to generate a beam saber at close range.

    The Sabretooth Exceed also acted to test whether units could remotely attach and detach weaponry in space. Attaching a Sabretooth to the G-Exes mid-flight was aided by new onboard sensor arrays and advanced camera technology (disguised at the Sabretooth's "cockpit"). The Sabretooth itself could be set on autopilot find G-Exes or act as a manned support fighter.

    Ultimately, the GCA-150 Sabretooth proved to be a difficult unit to handle, and as such it saw little action before being retired. The Fang Bits were effective at cutting through Gafran units, but were difficult to control in battle, even for X-Rounder test pilots. However, it's Sabre Blaster, the nosecone of the Sabretooth's jet mode showed its worth providing cover fire, and the technology ultimately found its way onto the Strider Form of the AGE-2."
