The Bandai Aile Calamity Gundam 1/100 Full Mechanics kit provides a balanced modelling experience that suits both steady-handed beginners and seasoned modellers. The combination of an internal frame and well separated armour panels makes it straightforward to build and display.
Based on Mobile Suit Gundam SEED, the Aile Calamity carries a bold design with angular armour lines. The Full Mechanics range adds a stronger internal skeleton which improves stability and pose retention over simpler kits. The assembly sequence helps the armour integrate neatly with the frame.
The kit offers wide articulation for dynamic positioning of arms, legs and torso, and the elbow joints provide reliable support for posed stances. Wing components articulate for varied display setups, and the undergating strategy reduces visible sprue scars.
Colour moulding is effective, minimising the need for complete repainting while still allowing for customisation. Parts fit tightly in most areas so filler is rarely necessary. For a smoother result, carefully sand nub marks and apply panel lining for depth.
Modellers of different abilities can enjoy this kit: novices can follow the clear build steps and experienced modellers can pursue detailing and paintwork. Sand from 400 grit up to 1000 grit for the best smoothing. Use a primer compatible with ABS before applying paint to ensure long-lasting adhesion.
The Bandai Aile Calamity Gundam 1/100 FM kit is a dependable build that lends itself to both out-of-the-box display and detailed customisation, thanks to its solid engineering and good colour separation.
