Bandai 5065112 - HG 1/144 Heindree Sturm TWFM #22 Off-Road Style HG Gundam Kit  [B-5065112]

Constructing the Heindree Sturm HG

The Heindree Sturm from The Witch from Mercury delivers a compact but punchy 1/144 High Grade experience. The kit keeps the anime silhouette while offering crisp panel lines and manageable sprue layout, making it a solid pick for hobbyists who like to customise paint and weathering.

Assembly workflow and tricks

Parts generally slot together with good alignment, so tidy nipper cuts and careful sanding will get you a clean result. The kit uses undergating on several elements to minimise visible nubs, which helps keep finishing time down. Use a fine wash for panel lines and consider selective topcoating to preserve painted areas.

Articulation and posing capabilities

The Heindree Sturm features well-designed joints for expressive posing without losing stability. The shoulder and elbow range allows for action stances while retaining a firm centre of gravity for display. Small adjustments to ankle positioning improve balance for aggressive poses.

Finishing options and display ideas

Its surfaces are receptive to decals, chipping effects and light grime for a battle-worn look. The kit is compact enough to sit on a shelf or be incorporated into a multi-kit scene, and matt or satin varnishes help integrate weathering layers.

The Bandai HG 1/144 Heindree Sturm suits builders who like to tweak poses and add subtle paintwork. Its engineering and detail level make it a rewarding small-scale project.
