SD Gundam

SD Gundam ((SD)ガンダム) is a series of Gundam-based media and designs that are deformed to look small and/or cute. Created during the 1980s, SD Gundam has become a subfranchise in its own right within the Gundam metaseries, spawning off several spin-offs in the form of shows, books, and merchandise.

The basic design concept of SD Gundam is to re-proportion the standard Gundam so that it stands at a relative height of two of its heads, meaning most of its body is shortened to fit into this system. They usually also are given regular eyes rather than the blank ones seen in normal Gundam, though this is optional.
