Captain Formula 91 Jr.

Captain Formula 91 Jr. is CB-008 in Bandai's SD Gundam Chibi Senshi run, the small-format kits the company issued in March 1993. The character behind it is CAPF-91 Captain Formula 91 from SD Command Chronicles III: Super G-ARMS, the 1992 chapter that took the Command branch into space. It is an SD character rather than a machine from a Gundam animation, and what this release offers is a model of the character.

What it does in the story

Super G-ARMS moves the Command cast off their home planet and onto the battleship General for a war against Cosmo Zatarion. Captain Formula 91 is what Captain Gundam FF becomes when a system V Command had hidden inside him switches on, and it sits in the Super G-ARMS fleet for that war.

What makes it different

• The kit rebuilds into a Star Griffin. Captain Formula 91 can turn into the holy beast Star Griffin, and the Chibi figure reproduces that by coming apart and reusing its parts as the beast, the way the other transformable kits in the run work.
• It is a powered-up Captain Gundam FF. The character is Captain Gundam FF with a system V Command had installed running, not a new machine built from scratch. Its Grand Cross Buster draws on the energy of a nearby star.
• The same character exists in a larger kit. Captain Formula 91 also appeared in the Ganso SD Gundam line as No. 117, a full-size kit rather than a 45 mm figure, so this release is one of two versions of the machine rather than the only one.
• It came back in clear plastic with two siblings. Crystal Gundam Formulas, a multi-pack from February 1994, reissued this figure in transparent mouldings alongside Super Dragon Guardian Formulander Jr. and Captain Neo Gundam Jr. The Gundam Wiki records that all three of those kits depict the F91 Gundam F91.

How big is it?

• Kit height: roughly 45 mm, the average for the Chibi Senshi range, which clips plates onto a polycap skeleton
