Introducing the VF-31J Siegfried HG Scale Kit

The Bandai HG 1/100 VF-31J Siegfried, representing Hayate Immelmann, is a well-detailed model kit for fans of the Macross franchise. Included water-slide decals help recreate the on-screen insignia. The kit targets hobbyists who value precision engineering and a rewarding build process.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/100
  • Decals: Water-slide decals included
  • Assembly Type: Snap-fit

Practical Building Advice

Snap-fit construction makes the build efficient and mostly glue-free. For a professional display, consider painting selective areas, using washes in recessed panel lines, and carefully applying the water decals with setting solutions and a protective topcoat.

Overall, the Bandai HG 1/100 VF-31J Siegfried is a compact, accurate kit that rewards careful assembly and finishing with a high-quality display model.

The kit suits beginners to intermediate builders thanks to snap-fit assembly, but achieving a display-grade finish benefits from basic painting and decal skills.
Use a gloss base coat and decal setting solutions to minimise air gaps. Gently press decals with a soft brush and allow full drying before sealing with a clear coat.
Yes, the HG layout includes basic joint articulation suitable for static display poses. Avoid extreme stress on thin plastic parts when repositioning limbs or panels.
Glue is not required due to snap-fit engineering. If you want permanent joins or added strength for heavy display poses, small amounts of plastic cement or cyanoacrylate can be used carefully.
