The GUCKER makes its plastic debut

The GUCKER has long been a missing piece in many Maschinen Krieger collections.

Originally appearing in the early 1990s as a hybrid NITTO / Modelkasten resin conversion, the GUCKER is now available for the first time as a full injection-moulded plastic kit from WAVE.

The G4/R1 designation marks the GUCKER as the force reconnaissance variant of the GUSTAV platform — same legs, same power plant, but built for a different job entirely. Where the GUSTAV is the grunt, the GUCKER is eyes and ears. Its closed armoured window frames carry ECCM seeker packages, and the upgraded KETZER stealth muffler keeps the engine signature low. This is a suit designed to push into hostile territory and watch.

Compact, purposeful, and visually distinctive — a clean foundation for studio finishes, conversion work, or archive-accurate builds.

This kit-only release is for builders who want the plastic itself.

🧠 Studio Note

"The KETZER has been my favourite in this line since I built one at the studio over a decade ago. The GUCKER has just changed that. It has the weight of a heavy recon platform — purposeful, brutal in the right way. Very consistent with the lore and the feeling of the faction. I'm looking forward to seeing where the build takes it." — Linc
