Kit Features & Gimmicks
Italicized lines are optional gimmicks.
Articulation
- The head can swivel/pivot back on a ball-and-socket/hinge joint.
- The shoulder joints can swing frontwards/backwards (in a limited extent) or raise upwards.
- The arms can...
- Swing on a peg-and-socket joint.
- Raise horizontally.
- The upper elbows can turn.
- Both elbow and knee joints can be bent up to 90 degrees.
- The manipulators can swivel on a ball-and-socket joint.
- The waist can rotate on a ball-and-socket joint.
- The upper thighs can swivel on a ball-and-socket joint, though the backwards articulation is limited due to the non-poseable skirt armor.
- Front and side skirt armors can pivot to avoid interference.
- The ankles can pivot/tilt.
Weapons/Other Gimmicks
- The hands are swappable.
- Each of the weapons can be wielded by their respective hand parts.
- The weapon-holding palms and weapon hilts (sans the Beam Saber) feature molded tabs and tab-holes for stable handling.
- Spare Beam Saber can be optionally removed from the left forearm as a handheld weapon.
- Large Beam Saber can be optionally removed from the backpack as a handheld weapon.
- Fin Funnels (Standby mode) can be optionally mounted onto the backpack.
- Each of the Fin Funnels can be removed individually and convert into attack modes, or reattach them via their flip-out locks.
- The right Fin Funnel holder can replace with the backpack's Beam Saber holster to recreate the Double Fin Funnel type if one buys another HGUC ν Gundam.
- The High Mega Shield is formed combining the base shield of the v Gundam and the additional parts that come with this kit. It can then be mounted onto...
- Any of the two forearms, though the left one is the default position.
- Either of the two hooks on the adapter.
- The bipod on the front of the rifle can be deployed/folded.
- The v Gundam HWS can mount onto any Action Bases (sold separately) by removing the panel for the 3mm hardpoint on the kit's lower crotch.

Tips & Tricks
- For better results, some or most of the details are needed to be applied with Gundam Markers and/or Mr. Color paints.
- Topcoat (Mr. Hobby recommended) can be used to protect applied stickers/marking decals and if any, painted details.
- Care must be taken while painting the ABS joints: Using enamel paint or excessive lacquer paint layer can damage the plastic.
- The Dengeki Hobby Magazine exclusive 1/144 Mercury Lev Dcan be used to remodel this kit into the RX-93 ν Gundam Vrabe from Gundam Build Fighters Amazing and Gundam Build Fighters Document.
Customizing-based tips
- If one chooses, the Gunpla can be built into a regular ν Gundam with the remaining surplus parts.
