Gundam Epyon

The OZ-13MS Gundam Epyon is a mech from the Mobile Suit Gundam Wing series. It appeared in the 37th episode of Death Battle, Tigerzord VS Gundam Epyon, where it and Zechs Merquise fought against Tommy Oliver, Saba, and the White Tigerzord from the Power Rangers series.
==History==
Designed and built by OZ leader Treize Khushrenada, the OZ-13MS Gundam Epyon is intended to be the physical manifestation of Treize's martial ideals. Based on combat data acquired on the Gundams fighting OZ and the Romefeller Foundation, the Epyon is intended to be the perfect weapon for Treize's envisioned perfect soldier, with a razor-sharp, retractable whiplike heat rod and a large beam sword. In addition, the Epyon can transform into a dragon-like mobile armor mode for atmospheric flight and added speed and mobility. To Treize, these weapons are the only weapons a "true" soldier would need, and seeing the personal philosophies he lives by embodied in the Gundam pilots, waited until the day he could give his perfect weapon to one of these perfect soldiers.
