Design and build notes for the HGBD:R 1/144 Gundam Aegis Knight

The Bandai 5059543 HGBD:R 1/144 Gundam Aegis Knight transfers the Aegis Knight look into a nimble High Grade kit. Sourced from Gundam Build Divers Re:RISE, it combines recognizable styling with a build that suits both casual and committed modellers.

Parts fit, colours and articulation

Assembly reveals well engineered parts and clear colour separation that limits the need for repainting. The joint system gives secure articulation so you can strike bold poses without the figure collapsing under its own balance.

Where to add your own touches

There is room for creative upgrades. Panel lining and subtle weathering bring out sculpted edges, while the undergated runner layout helps reduce visible nubs for a neater final appearance.

Workshop tips to speed your build

For clean gate removal, use 400-600 grit sandpaper and work progressively. The small scale is forgiving for airbrush practice and masking. Use a primer that bonds to ABS parts to make paint jobs more durable.

Strong engineering, good pose options and clear opportunities for detailing make the HGBD:R 1/144 Gundam Aegis Knight a reliable pick for display builds and kitbashing projects.
