Bandai 5055886 HGUC 1/144 Gerbera-Tetra: High Grade Details

The Bandai 5055886 HGUC 1/144 Gerbera-Tetra kit reproduces a memorable Mobile Suit Gundam 0083 machine in a compact High Grade format. The model keeps the signature silhouette while providing clean surface detail for finishing work.

Joint Performance and Booster Styling

This HGUC release delivers reliable joint work that holds dynamic stances without excessive sag. The shoulder-mounted thrusters and rear propulsion array are modelled to emphasise the Gerbera-Tetra's manoeuvrability, and the Sturm Booster is a prominent visual element.

Difficulty Rating and Essential Gear

Intended for builders with some kit experience, the assembly uses standard snap-fit techniques with a moderate complexity. Keep side cutters, a hobby blade, silicone sanding pads and small files on hand for clean assembly.

Finishing Workflow and Decal Advice

Begin with gentle sanding and use a panel line wash to deepen moulded detail. Apply decals carefully and protect finished surfaces with a clear topcoat to maintain colour and detail under display lighting.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/144
  • Grade: High Grade (HG)
  • Build Level: Moderate

Well suited to diorama scenes or standalone shelves, the HGUC Gerbera-Tetra balances buildability and screen-accurate styling.

You can recreate flight poses, combat stances and grounded guard positions thanks to the robust hip and shoulder articulation.
The Sturm Booster is supplied as a distinct assembly, so it can be positioned or removed to suit your display or conversion plans.
Both acrylic and lacquer paints adhere well after light priming; acrylics are easier for quick colour work while lacquers give a harder finish for weathering effects.
Use tweezers and a small tray to organise tiny pieces, and test fit before applying any glue or cement to prevent misalignment.
Yes, the HGUC scale makes it straightforward to mix parts for custom conversions, though careful trimming and pinning may be required for secure joins.
