Tips & Tricks
- For better results, some or most of the details are needed to be applied and panel-lined with Gundam Markers and/or Mr. Color paints.
- Topcoat (Mr. Hobby recommended) can be used to protect applied stickers and if any, painted details and marking decals.
- If using matte/flat-finish top coat, it is advisable not to spray on the clear/translucent and the soft parts - can be done by masking or spraying top coat while the said parts are separated.
- Care must be taken while painting the ABS joints: Using enamel paint or excessive lacquer paint layer can damage the plastic.
Customizing-based tips
- The open-palm left hand from the HGAW Gundam X Divider (or the HGBF Gundam X Maoh) can be used on this Gunpla.
- The GX-Bit head from the HGBC The Northern Pod can be used on this Gunpla, though it results on the "Gundam X wearing a GX-Bit head" instead.
Variants
Italicized items are exclusives.
