SD Tornado Gundam reworked for flexible silhouette choices

The Bandai 5065117 SD Tornado Gundam joins the SD Gundam Cross Silhouette series with a frame that supports two distinct looks. Modellers can opt for the classic squat SD form or assemble the CS frame to achieve a taller, more dynamic figure.

Poseability and display considerations

The CS frame improves joint range and stability, allowing a broader selection of poses for shelf display or small vignettes. The kit suits both static poses and more animated stances when balanced correctly.

Build skill level and tool recommendations

Classed as entry level, this kit is friendly for newcomers yet still enjoyable for experienced modellers. Keep side cutters, a hobby knife and sanding sticks on hand for tidy assembly.

Detail work, decals and sealing the build

Accentuate panel lines with fine liners or washes, and add the supplied decals where desired. A clear topcoat will seal decals and paint, giving a durable finish that stands up to handling.

Bandai 5065117 SD Tornado Gundam Cross Silhouette offers a straightforward building experience with adaptable styling, a solid choice for modellers expanding their Gunpla assortment.

Yes. The CS frame gives longer limb proportions and extra joint articulation that help achieve more natural looking action poses compared with a fixed SD frame.
Decals are straightforward with a pair of tweezers and patience. Using a clear gloss coat before applying waterslides can help them seat cleanly into panel lines.
Part compatibility varies, but many SDCS parts are broadly compatible. Check joint sizes and attachment points before attempting swaps to avoid stress on pegs.
Keep the model out of direct sunlight to prevent discoloration, dust regularly with a soft brush and handle joints gently to avoid loosening over time.
