Bandai 173901 - 1/144 HG Unicorn Gundam Banshee Destroy Mode High Grade Kit  [B-173901]

Summary of the HG 1/144 Banshee kit

The Bandai 173901 - 1/144 HG Unicorn Gundam 02 Banshee in Destroy Mode reproduces the Mobile Suit's defining features in High Grade scale. Its transformation into Destroy Mode and the kit's sculpted parts make it an attractive piece for display collections.

Articulation and posing notes

The kit's joint layout supports a broad range of poses, with shoulder articulation and leg joints that suit both static and action-oriented displays. Converting to Destroy Mode changes the model's posture and emphasises the Banshee's silhouette.

Build difficulty and must-have tools

Classified as moderate, the build is suitable for hobbyists ready to move beyond entry-level kits. Essential tools include side cutters, a sharp hobby knife and sanding sticks for clean edge work.

Painting guidance and finishing touches

While the kit assembles well without paint, panel lining, decal placement and a final topcoat will enhance surface depth and durability. Take care with small parts during finishing.

Collectors who value compact, transformable models will find the HG 1/144 Unicorn Gundam Banshee Destroy Mode kit a satisfying addition that balances detail with approachable assembly.
