Bandai Hobby - Char's Counterattack Beltorchika Children - #36 Hi-Nu Gundam, Bandai Spirits RG 1/144 Model Kit

I have purchased this as a final build (for now) for my gunpla collection, this HAS to be the best one I have built, the mobility and accessories are insane and there is the ever popular real grade detailing.Pros:- Mobility and movement as this thing is a posing machine believe it or not.- Extremely detailed- No Paint or glue required (Welp it's a suggestion that's not required)- No limit to accessoriesCons:- It can be quite big for a 1/144 scale model so check shelve size height before buying.- The gold and silver can look too plasticky or toy-like for some, so I had to spray paint the gold so it could pop more.- And no water slider stickers.In short, if you're going get only ONE gunpla kit ever, make sure it's this one.

The media could not be loaded. This RG kit is one of the most satisfying Gunpla I have ever built. Whoever designed this model did such an amazing job making the parts fit so amazing tight and neat together. The panel lines are so defined that using panel liner is cake. The details are amazingly intricate and all the part fit so tightly together.The RG Hi Nu Gundam is one of the most beautiful and articulate Gunpla models that I have built so far. I recommend so good nippers and a good glass file because there is a lot of “Under Gate” pieces. I am mostly impressed how well the panel lines are defined though. I have never seen a Gunpla kit that has this high quality of details and defined panel line etching.I am going on and on about the same thing but if you ever built Gunpla you’ll know exactly what I mean once you get your hands on this kit. Just get it!!!

This was a fun build, the kit feels super sturdy and has some weight to it. overall this kit is a mini masterpiece and worth every penny

Great kit for beginners and experienced builders! A bit back heavy and the funnels do get a bit loose, but these shouldn't stop you from enjoying the kit. Love the color scheme and the variety of weapons it came with.

Best model in my collection. Will post picture later

I loved building this because it had a very simple build and instructions were easy to understand, the only thing that I found difficult were the stickers for design, I would tweezers for model kits to design the model kit, but overall I would recommend this kit if you love to tinker and build

These RG models keep getting more and more advanced as mold technology progresses and the Hi-Nu Gundam is one of the gold standards for the RG lineup. Just an absolute blast to build, advanced enough to keep an experienced builder occupied but not frustrated. The panel lines are easy to apply ink even without scribing, and the poseability is incredible.Possibly my favorite Gunpla I've been so far, and I can understand why many others also feel the same way.

Because this was my third build (second RG) I took my sweet time getting through it. I knew what to expect (thought I did) from an RG since my first build was an RG and compared to the HG, they're no joke. THIS kit had a few more sprues than either of my first two kits. Regardless, the quality of the kit is remarkable. The instructions are perfectly accurate and very easy to interpret even if you never read the text - the symbols and imagery is beautifully illustrated and clear.Some of the smaller pieces didn't have the greatest "snug" fit, for example, the head to the chest is a bit loose and the head array as well - a slight bump will generally cause it to fall out.The model itself is utterly gorgeous. I didn't install the decals at this point since I am planning to do panel lines and some minimal aging, but I don't see why those will be any different than the Sazabi decals.The only issue which caused me frustration is trying to find a decent place to hold onto while establishing its pose position. That's hardly something to be upset over though. Worth keeping in mind is the Action Base 2 is somewhat challenged by the sheer weight of this beast. It tends to bounce around and stress the hinges.All that being said, it's a great build and very enjoyable.
