Bandai 5055509 - MG 1/100 Unicorn Gundam 03 Phenex Model Kit - Advanced Gold MG for Display and Posing  [B-5055509]

Phenex MG overview for advanced modelers

The MG 1/100 Unicorn Gundam 03 Phenex (Narrative Ver.) is a premium Master Grade offering with reflective gold-plated parts that need cautious handling. This kit supports full transformation between Unicorn and Destroy modes, presenting both technical assembly work and an eye-catching finished model.

Articulation and posing

The robust internal frame enables confident posing across a wide range of movement while supporting plated armor weight. Shoulder and leg joints are built to secure stances, and the detailed panel separation rewards extra finishing work like panel lining and subtle shading.

Assembly level and tools

Marked as advanced, the Phenex requires steady hands and common modelling tools. Keep side cutters, a hobby knife, varying grit sanding sticks and a pair of fine tweezers in your bench kit to reduce handling damage to plated faces.

Painting and finishing notes

Painting is optional for the plated pieces; reduce visible nubs by undergating and avoid aggressive sanding on plated surfaces. Decals and a careful clear topcoat will improve longevity and display appeal.

The MG Unicorn Gundam 03 Phenex suits experienced builders who want a high-impact model with complex mechanics and strong visual presence.
