Bandai 5059249 - HGUC 1/144 GM Sniper II Tactical Edition  [B-5059249]

Overview of the HGUC 1/144 GM Sniper II Kit

The Bandai 5059249 - HGUC 1/144 GM Sniper II recreates the sniper variant from Mobile Suit Gundam 0080 with emphasis on clean lines and realistic armament. It fits well into collections that focus on long-range combat themes and scaled action poses.

Detailing and Joint Range

Separate moulded parts allow clear separation of plates and give a reliable range of motion for aiming and braced stances. The retractable visor is modelled to switch positions and adds a practical display option without extra parts.

Assembly Difficulty and Useful Gear

Expect a moderate build process that rewards patience and basic modelling tools. Essential items include flush cutters, a sharp blade for cleanup, and a range of sandpapers or sanding sticks to refine edges.

Painting Advice and Sealing Work

Panel lining will help define small surface details and the weapons. Apply decals with care and finish with a clear coat to protect the paint and keep the kit looking consistent under display lights.

The HGUC 1/144 GM Sniper II is a rewarding project for hobbyists who enjoy tactical-themed builds and neat poseable models. Its accessory set supports varied sniper-focused displays.
