Re: RMS-178 fake gundam mk II

The design in that illustration is an adaptation of the "Nise Gundam Mk. II" ( にせガンダムMk-II , meaning "Fake Gundam Mk. II"), from SD Gundam, which was never meant to fit into continuity.

You can see it in the bottom right corner of this image, between the Super Gundam and the regular Nise Gundam (which is based on a Zaku and the RX-78, instead of a Hizack and the Gundam Mk. II):

Image from this site, which offers scans of several of the SD Ganso model kit line's "Top Secret" catalogs, an excellent resource on SD Gundam G-Arms and some of the other older SD design series.
