OZX-GU02A Gundam Geminass 02 is one of Gundam-type mobile suits in the manga series [[Gundam W G-Unit: Last Outpost|New Mobile Report Gundam W Dual Story: G-Unit]] (released in America as Gundam: The Last Outpost).

History

Developed in secret at the asteroid belt colony MO-V, the Geminass was the first of Dr. Berg's experimental G-Units, advanced mobile suits which were intended to revolutionize warfare. As experimental models, the G-Units featured several new systems and construction methods which were designed to improve upon the standards set by machines like the OZ-00MS Tallgeese and its production model, the OZ-06MS Leo. The first of these technologies is the Unit System, from which the G-Unit derives part of its name; this system, designed to eliminate the need for environment-specific mobile suits, allows every part of the machine (except the cockpit) to be quick and easy to replace with a part better suited for a given situation. This process was aided by the fact that most of the G-Unit's major parts were held in place with interlocking bolts which could be taken out quickly. The second, and more important, of the G-Unit's new technologies is the PX System. This special system causes a brief period of super-charge, increasing the mobile suit's speed and power, as well as stimulating an adrenaline surge in the pilot. The side effect of this system is its volatile nature; if abused, the PX System can cause permanent damage to both the mobile suit and the pilot's brain.

The Geminass was intended as a basic model machine to show off the capabilities of the G-Units' new technologies. Its weapons include beam swords, featuring a higher output than the standard beam saber, and an accelerate rifle. This weapon fired highly charged muons in standard beam rifle fashion, but also had a spiral particle accelerator lining its barrel which allowed it to charge the beam, creating a high-damage blast nicknamed "Hyper Shot". The Geminass also carried a durable shield featuring a honeycomb construction. In its basic configuration, the Geminass was best suited for ground combat; however, by swapping out the shoulder and calf parts and adding a special thruster backpack, it could be adapted for space use in a matter of minutes.

Two Geminass units were constructed at MO-V. The second, Geminass 02, was painted blue with dark blue, orange and yellow accents and piloted by Odell Barnett, recognized as MO-V's top pilot. Due to Odell's higher level of skill and focus, the PX System was enabled in Geminass 02, while it was disabled in Geminass 01 until Adin learned to control it. Even though the machine was state of the art, Odell often chose to use an ordinary OZ-06MS Leo instead, chosing to preserve the G-Unit Project's secrecy. As such, Geminass 02 only saw deployment twice: once in a test battle with Adin's Geminass 01, and again when OZ Prize's Stardust Knights lead a full-scale attack on MO-V. When Adin's overeagerness resulted in Geminass 01 being disabled and thrown towards a field of space mines, Odell used his PX System to save his brother at the cost of his mobile suit and apparently his life. Prize would later recover the Geminass 02's remains and use it to build the OZX-10VMSX Gundam Aesculapius for their own purposes.
