Bandai 5068501 HG 1/144 MS-06 Zaku II from Gundam Thunderbolt - Intro

The Bandai 5068501 HG 1/144 MS-06 Zaku II + Big Gun Set faithfully recreates the mobile suit from Gundam Thunderbolt with a focus on surface detail and weaponry. The High Grade format delivers an accessible build that still rewards careful finishing and customisation efforts.

Articulation Performance and Display Impact

Articulation is a highlight, with joints that support dynamic stances and stable displays. The included Big Gun increases the model's display appeal and works well in posed action compositions.

Assembly Difficulty and Essential Supplies

Rated intermediate, the kit benefits from standard modelling tools such as side cutters, a sharp hobby knife and sanding sticks for trimming and smoothing components prior to painting.

Finishing Techniques for Better Realism

For a cleaner finish, remove nub marks carefully, use panel lining to bring out panel detail and apply decals before sealing with your preferred clearcoat for protection.

The Bandai HG 1/144 MS-06 Zaku II + Big Gun Set is a versatile kit that suits collectors who value poseability and the option to upgrade with paint and decals.
