HG 1/144 Blue Destiny Unit 1 'Exam' - Reflective Finish, Trusted Build

The Bandai 5055572 HG 1/144 Blue Destiny Unit 1 'Exam' combines familiar High Grade engineering with a metallic gloss injection for an elevated presentation. It appeals to builders seeking a neat, ready-to-display kit without heavy painting.

Benefits of the Metallic Gloss Injection

The injected metallic gloss produces a subtle metallic sheen that conceals small blemishes better than flat plastic. This finish gives a premium appearance and can be a faster route to a standout model for those who prefer simpler workflows.

Assembly Experience and Articulation Notes

Assembly follows standard High Grade conventions with snap-fit parts and durable joints. The kit provides a broad range of motion for expressive poses while maintaining decent hold for display use.

Detailing, Weathering and Upgrades

Even with the metallic surface, the model responds well to panel lining, decal application and restrained weathering to highlight detail. It also accepts common aftermarket parts, making it suitable for builders who want to upgrade or customise components.
