Kit Features & Gimmicks
Articulation
- The head can swivel on a double-sided ball-jointed neck.
- Shoulder joints can raise upwards.
- The arms can...
- Swivel on a ball-and-socket joint.
- Raise horizontally.
- The upper arms can rotate.
- Elbow joints can be bent up to 110 degrees.
- The manipulators can swivel on a ball-and-socket joint.
- The waist can tilt sideways, and back and forth in a limited manner.
- Front and side skirt armors are poseable to avoid interference with the leg joints.
- The upper thighs can swivel on a ball-and-socket joint (though the backwards articulation is limited due to the non-poseable rear skirt armor), and/or rotate on each piece.
- The knees are double-jointed.
- Ankles can tilt sideways (in a mostly limited manner), or frontward on a c-clip connection.
Weapons/Other Gimmicks
- Any of the weapons can be wielded by the hands.
- Beam Saber hilts can be optionally removed from the backpack as handheld weapons.
- The shield can attach onto any of the forearms (default position is on the left) or onto the backpack.
- The shield's grip can be rearranged for the left hand to hold.
Tips & Tricks
- For better results, some or most of the details can be painted and panel-lined with Gundam Markers.
- Topcoat (Mr. Hobby recommended) can be used to protect painted details and/or marking decals, if any.
- Despite what the package says about not needing tools to trim off the parts from the runner, using nippers are recommended for a cleaner cut.
- Exercise caution while posing the upper legs: Due to the hip joint axis' thin piece on the ball joint, posing it roughly causes it to snap off.
Customizing-based tips
- The Water-slide decals from the "10 Crafting Techniques to Improve Your Gunpla Building (ガンプラが絶対にうまくなる10の制作テクニック)" mook can be applied on this Gunpla.
Notes & Trivia
- Despite sharing similar appearances, the Beam Javelin and the Gundam Hammer are not reused from the Gundam ACE Magazine exclusive Compatible Weapon Sets A and B.
- Despite being labeled as a "Full Weapon Set", the kit lacks the Super Napalm for the Beam Rifle.
