Constructing the FA-78-1 Full Armor Gundam: High Grade Guide

The Bandai 5060757 HG 1/144 FA-78-1 Full Armor Gundam is a carefully engineered High Grade model from the MSD range, aimed at experienced builders who enjoy armour-heavy designs. The kit showcases the Full Armor concept through layered plating and multiple support armaments.

Articulation, Stability and Fit

This model is engineered for strong poses with joints that balance range and stability. Shoulder pivots and hip mechanisms enable expressive stances, while precise moulding gives clean colour separation for those who prefer a no-paint build.

Build Complexity and Workshop Tools

Ranked as a moderate build, the kit is suitable for modellers familiar with HG assemblies. Keep side cutters, a hobby knife, sanding sticks and a set of files to hand for the neatest results during construction.

Prepping, Painting and Final Touches

Address nub marks with careful sanding and use a fine panel line wash to accent recesses. Apply decals as instructed and finish with a matt or satin clear coat to protect the look and reduce shine for display.

The Bandai 5060757 HG 1/144 FA-78-1 Full Armor Gundam is a solid kit for collectors who favour bulky, well armed units. Its detail and stability reward careful assembly and finishing.
