  • The waist can rotate (swivel) on a ball-and-socket waist joint.
  • The hip joint axis can also swing back to provide better clearance for the leg articulation.

    • Front, side, and rear skirt armors can lift up to provide clearance.

  • The front foot parts can pivot.

Weapons/Other Gimmicks

  • The right hand is swappable.
  • Each of the weapons must be wielded by their respective hand parts.
  • 1 to 3 of the Beam Saber hilts can be optionally removed from the Beam Saber rack as handheld weapons.
    • Only 2 of the Beam effects is included.
  • Beam Rifle can also mount onto the rear waist armor for storage.
  • The shield can be wielded by either of the default hand parts, though the default position is on the left.
  • Gundam EX can mount onto any Action Bases (sold separately) via an adapter.

Tips & Tricks

  • For better results, some or most of the details are needed to be applied/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.
    • If using matte/flat-finish top coat, it is advisable not to spray on the softer parts - can be done by masking or spraying top coat while the said parts are separated.

Notes & Trivia

  • Along with Solari's Zaku II, the Gundam EX saw early release in the Western markets prior to the Japanese release date.
  • While not labeled as such, the Gundam EX uses a packaging and manual style similar to the High Grade Universal Century kits.
  • As the kit was produced before the mini-series' release, the data on the instructions made no mention to the "Gundam Pilot" boarding the Mobile Suit.
