Bandai 5060970 - HG 1/144 MSN-001 Delta Gundam HGUC #136 Model Kit - HG Transformable Model  [B-5060970]

Intro to the Delta Gundam HG 1/144 Kit

The MSN-001 Delta Gundam is released as a 1/144 High Grade that showcases the mobile suit's slender lines and conversion ability. Bandai delivers a clean runner layout and reasonable part detail that suits collectors who like both shelf-ready and custom-painted models.

Build Flow and Mechanical Notes

Assembly is straightforward for those used to HG kits; the precise moulding and clear color split minimise the need for major paint work. Fine surface details show up well with subtle panel lining, and the transformation system, influenced by Zeta-style designs, offers extra poses. Be mindful when toggling between modes to keep joint wear to a minimum.

Finishing Strategies and Workshop Tips

The kit responds well to light weathering or a high-gloss finish depending on your display goals. Undergated sections help limit visible nub marks and make cleanup simpler. For sanding, 400 to 600 grit paper is the sweet spot to remove nubs and maintain sharp edges without gouging.

The Bandai HG 1/144 MSN-001 Delta Gundam stands as a solid HG option, offering both satisfying engineering and scope for tasteful customisation.
