Guide to Bandai 5066907 - HG 1/144 RX-160S-2 Byarlant Custom 02

This HG kit targets hobbyists comfortable with a medium-difficulty build. The RX-160S-2 Byarlant Custom 02 mirrors the anime design and offers a satisfying assembly experience for those who enjoy refining fit and finish.

Poseability and Joint Engineering

The kit features well thought out joints that support dramatic poses. Shoulder mechanisms rotate neatly and hold tension for action stances. The overall construction balances movement with a clean silhouette for display shots.

Split Colour and Seam Control

Good colour separation on the runners reduces repainting work. Parts are engineered to align tightly, making seam removal easier. Undergating helps achieve minimal nub marks for a smoother final look after light finishing work.

Modding and Paint Approaches

The Byarlant Custom 02 responds well to both subtle and bold customisation. Builders can add weathering layers, highlight panel lines, or go for a mirror-like finish depending on the desired presentation. Small kitbashes or decal swaps are feasible with careful planning.

This Bandai HG 1/144 RX-160S-2 Byarlant Custom 02 is a rewarding project for builders who enjoy posing, panel lining, and personalising their kits.

Yes, basic hobby tools like nippers, a hobby knife, and sandpaper are sufficient. For a cleaner finish, consider a panel line marker and fine brushes or an airbrush for paintwork.
Most seams are well controlled, but some modellers choose to use a small amount of putty or sanding on visible joins to get a seamless appearance before painting.
Acrylics and lacquers both work well; acrylics are beginner friendly while lacquer gives a harder finish. Always use appropriate primers and thin coats for the best results.
Apply a clear topcoat to seal panel lining and decals. Matte, satin, or gloss varnishes are all suitable depending on the desired final appearance.
