Kit Features & Gimmicks

  • The builder can choose between three stickers for the mono-eye. (NOTE: This is a one-time method, so choose wisely.)

Articulation

  • The head can rotate, tilt, and move forwards/backwards via a hinge and ball-joint neck. However, the movement range is limited due to the shape of the head and the "collars" on the torso.
  • The shoulder joints can swing forwards/backwards. They need to be pulled out to access this motion.
  • The arms can...
    • Swing on a peg-and-socket joint.
    • Raise horizontally in an extent.
  • The upper arms can rotate.
  • Elbows can be bent up to about 90 degrees. However, the forearm can be pulled out to increase the range to about 120 degrees.
  • The upper thighs can swivel on a ball-and-socket joint.
    • The waist armor can be moved out of the way to access the full range of this motion.
  • The knees can be bent up to about 75 degrees. However, the lower leg can be pulled out to increase the range to about 135 degrees.

Weapons & Other Gimmicks

  • The right hand is swappable.
  • The Fedayeen Rifle can be held in the right hand (via the trigger-finger hand) with the barrel-end supported by the left hand.
    • The rifle can be used as a beam "spear" by having the Gabthley hold it via the barrel and the cylindrical section of the stock, and then attaching one of the beam effect parts to the rear end of the rifle.
  • The Beam Saber can be held in either hand. (NOTE: While there are four hilts provided, the kit only comes with two effect parts.)
  • The Claw Arms in the lower legs can be deployed via minor parts swapping.
  • The model can be transformed between Mobile Suit and Mobile Armor mode.
    • The Fedayeen Rifle is attached to the underside when in MA mode.
    • There is a third transformation shown in the instruction manual, dubbed the "Middle Form."
  • The model can be mounted on the provided Display Base.
    • Different adapters are used for the different modes of the model.
    • The adapter pieces, beam saber effect parts, adapter slot covers, and extra manipulators, when not in use, can be stored underneath the base.

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, marking decals and painted details.

Variants

Italicized item/s are exclusives.

Reissues of the kit from September 2018 onward will feature a blue-colored Bandai Spirits logo. Later reprints from mid-2022 will also feature an additional Bandai Namco logo.
