The Bandai HG 1/72 Mailes Reiki translates KEN OKUYAMA DESIGN into a High Grade assembly aimed at experienced modellers. The AMAIM [Reiki] model balances scale fidelity with practical engineering, delivering a compact kit that offers clean articulation reflective of Shiobe Zion's on-screen machine.
The Mailes Reiki stands out for its joint design. Verified movable elements include multi-directional limbs, a deployable rear skirt and rotating thruster modules, all of which enable faithful recreation of action postures while retaining structural stability.
The kit contains a super-heated halberd sword, a provisional taser launcher, an assortment of hands and a decal sheet. These accessories assist in achieving scene-accurate displays and allow modest personalisation without significant modification.
Remove sprue remnants with nippers then refine with 400-600 grit sandpaper to preserve panel lines. Use an ABS-compatible primer prior to painting to reduce chipping. For subtle panel shading, a fine-tipped liner or light wash will emphasise detail without heavy contrast.
For those experienced in High Grade kits, the Bandai HG 1/72 Mailes Reiki offers a compact, technically satisfying project that rewards careful finishing and considered posing.
