Guide to the HG 1/144 Gundam Kyrios build

The Bandai HG 1/144 Gundam Kyrios is an engaging kit for modellers who value mobility and clean engineering. Adapted from Mobile Suit Gundam 00, it reproduces the Kyrios silhouette with parts that support both transformed and standard presentations.

Surface finish and paint zones

Precise colour separation reduces repainting needs, and the orange and white panels are well defined. Overall part fit is reliable, helping builders keep a tidy assembly with minimal gap-filling.

Practical modelling hints

  • Trim nubs carefully, then sand parts with 400-grit followed by 800-grit to achieve smooth surfaces.
  • Use a primer suitable for ABS plastics before painting to avoid adhesion problems on moving sections.
  • Highlight panel lines with a fine liner or thin wash to bring out depth and mechanical detail.

Pooring and upgrades for display

The HG 1/144 Gundam Kyrios supports dramatic posing thanks to flexible joints and a balanced frame. Modders can add decals, alter colour accents or fit aftermarket parts to tailor the model to their display plans.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/144
  • Grade: High Grade
  • Build Level: Normal

Bandai's HG Kyrios offers a practical mix of assembly ease and upgrade potential, making it a solid pick for builders who want a lively, display-ready model.

For an average modeller, expect a few hours to a day for straight assembly. Allow extra time for painting, panel lining and decals.
Acrylics are a good choice when paired with an appropriate primer. They clean up easily and work well for both hand brushing and airbrushing.
Avoid over-tightening clips and test articulation during assembly. If needed, reinforce stress points with a small dab of plastic-safe glue or use a light lubricant on friction joints.
Action bases and clear stands are ideal for airborne or mid-transformation poses. A simple plinth or diorama base works well for static, posed displays.
