Bandai 5061332 - HGUC 1/144 XI Gundam vs Penelope Effect Kit Display Ready Version  [B-5061332]

Display-ready HGUC XI Gundam vs Penelope set

Bandai's HGUC 1/144 XI Gundam vs Penelope Funnel Missile Effect Set captures the Mobile Suit Gundam Hathaway aesthetic with precise moulding and extra effect parts. The funnel missile pieces add motion to posed scenes while retaining scale accuracy.

Mobility and clean mould lines

The kit offers robust articulation so the XI Gundam and Penelope can strike a variety of action poses. Split parts and tidy moulding reduce the need for paint to achieve recognisable color separation out of the box.

Tools to have on hand and build level

This High Grade release is moderate in complexity and benefits from standard modelling tools such as nippers, a hobby knife, and sanding supplies to deal with runner marks and seam lines.

Surface prep and decal advice

Sanding minor joins and running a panel line wash will visualise mechanical detail. Decals can bring additional contrast, and a satin or gloss topcoat will help the model sit well in a display case.

This Bandai kit pairs striking effect parts with approachable construction, making it a good pick for modellers who enjoy staged scenes and neat, poseable builds.
