Beginner to experienced build notes for the Bandai HG 1/144 Gundam Age-3 Normal

The Bandai HG 1/144 Gundam Age-3 Normal is a rewarding kit for a wide range of builders. Its transformation feature and solid overall design give both newcomers and seasoned modellers a pleasant modelling experience, with parts arranged to support expressive posing.

Mechanical design and poseability

Key to this kit is a transformation layout that shifts the model to G-Strider mode while retaining useful articulation. The parts are thoughtfully split and undergated to minimise visible nubs, which helps achieve a cleaner finished model with less sanding.

Colour work and decal placement

Colour-separated moulding fairly closely follows the original artwork, reducing the need for base coats. For those wanting a sharper look, panel lining and decals make mechanical details pop. The majority of joins are well matched to keep gaps to a minimum.

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

This Bandai HG model is a versatile kit that combines a clever transform with solid detailing, suitable for display or as a project to refine modelling skills.

Most colours are accurately separated on the runners, so additional paint is optional unless you want more precise shading or custom finishes.
Conversion is straightforward thanks to the kit's engineering. Follow the instructions carefully for secure locking points when switching modes.
Avoid direct sunlight and dust regularly. If you applied decals or topcoat, handle with gloves to prevent oils from affecting the finish.
A light sanding of nub areas and panel lining will lift the overall look. Undergating helps keep sanding to a minimum, but final touch-up is recommended for show pieces.
