What the HWS Expansion Adds to the Nu Gundam

The Bandai RG 1/144 HWS Expansion Set for the Nu Gundam enhances the base RG kit with extra armor panels and weaponry to achieve a heavier, more militarised appearance. It is intended for builders looking to increase visual complexity without sacrificing the Real Grade line's fine engineering.

Compatibility and Movement Retention

Made to work with the RG 1/144 Nu Gundam, the HWS parts are crafted to preserve the kit's articulation. The armor items attach around key joints and are balanced to keep common poses achievable while adding mass and detail to the model's silhouette.

Recommended Build Workflow and Tools

Expect a moderate assembly. Gather side cutters, hobby knife, sanding tools and tweezers before starting. Dry-fitting parts and filing connection points will help ensure panels sit flush and joints move as intended.

Finishing Workflow for Cohesive Results

Remove nub marks with light sanding, apply panel lining to bring out surface detail and position decals for authentic markings. A clear finish will blend the expansion with the original kit tones and protect delicate paintwork.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/144
  • Grade: RG (Real Grade)
  • Build Level: Moderate

The RG 1/144 HWS Expansion Set for the Nu Gundam is a solid option for modellers wanting extra bulk and display presence while keeping the precise detail expected from Bandai RG kits.

The expansion is primarily snap-fit to match RG assembly style, but minor glue can be used for permanent fixes or to secure loose edges after test-fitting.
Weapons are designed to work with the RG kit's standard hand fittings, though careful fitting and minor trimming may improve grip and alignment.
Aftermarket acrylics and lacquers are commonly used; always test compatibility on sprue waste and ensure proper priming for smooth adhesion.
Extra weight can increase stress on joints over time. Avoid forcing extreme poses and consider using display stands for prolonged displays to reduce wear.
The expansion includes a decal sheet intended for water slide application; follow the instructions for positioning and sealing with topcoat.
