Kit Features & Gimmicks

Articulation

  • The head can swivel/pivot on an integrated ball-and-socket/pivot neck joint frame.
  • The torso can tilt frontwards, or sideways with the waist's ball-and-socket joint.
  • The shoulder joints can swing frontwards.
  • The arms can...
    • Swing on a peg-and-socket joint.
    • Raise horizontally.
  • The upper elbows can turn.
  • Elbow joints can be bent up to 120 degrees.
  • The manipulators can swivel on a ball-and-socket joint.
  • The waist can rotate 360 degrees.
  • The hip joint axis can slide down for the legs' wider articulation range.
  • The front, side, and rear skirt armors can pivot to avoid interference with the leg articulation.
  • The upper thighs can swing frontwards/backwards, raise horizontally, and/or rotate on each part.
  • The legs feature double-jointed knee parts.
  • The ankles can pivot/tilt in some extent.

Weapons/Other Gimmicks

  • The hands are swappable.
  • Any of the weapons can be wielded by the weapon-holding hands.
    • The said weapon-holding hands feature protruding tabs for gripping stability.
  • Unicorn Gundam can transform between Unicorn mode and Destroy mode. (Shield can be transformed accordingly.)
    • The kit has 3 options for the horn/antenna: 2 fixed (1 for Unicorn mode, 1 for Destroy mode) and 1 transformable.
  • In Destroy mode, forearm panel/Beam Saber holders can flip frontwards to form Beam Tonfas.
  • The Beam Saber hilts can be optionally removed from the backpack or the forearms as handheld weapons.
  • Hyper Bazooka and/or Beam Magnum ammo packs are removable and each can be stored on the rear waist armor.
  • The tabs from the Hyper Bazooka and Beam Magnum's rear section can be flipped out so they can be stored on the backpack. (Note: There's only one slot so only one of the weapons can be attached at a time.)
  • Beam Magnum can be attached to a slot on the forearm.
  • Hyper Bazooka is collapsible.
  • The shield can...
    • Mount onto any of the forearms, though the default position is on the left.
    • Attach onto one of the two plugs in the adapter.
    • Slide frontwards/backwards onto the adapter.
  • Unicorn Gundam can mount onto most of the Action Bases (sold separately) with an adapter.

Tips & Tricks

  • For better results, some of the details are needed to be panel-lined with Gundam markers.
  • Topcoat (Mr. Hobby recommended) can be used to protect applied decals. (Water-based topcoat is recommended due to the kit having PP parts)
    • If using matte/flat-finish top coat, it is advisable not to spray on the clear/translucent parts - can be done by masking or spraying top coat while the said parts are separated.
  • Exercise caution while posing the hip joints: The joint parts can potentially snap off if not handled carefully.
  • During the assembly of the chest, exercise extreme caution while following the instruction to twist both Arms 90° for the first time. If you apply too much force in one go while holding on to a potential weak point, the arms will snap easily.
    • Instead slowly work both of the arms back and forth until you are able to twist them freely with a small bit of resistance. (Taking the time to do this will help you avoid a very common issue that could break the arms of your model kit, halting your progress altogether.)

Variants

  • A limited production run of the kit consists an alternate packaging of the Unicorn Gundam in Unicorn Mode.
