Full Armor Unit 2 Option Parts for Bandai 30MM — Armor Panels and Frame Extensions

This option parts set provides additional exterior armor, mounting points and frame elements for Bandai 30MM 1/144 model kits. Marketed within the 30 Minutes Label family, it is a modular add-on aimed at enhancing customization possibilities.

Design intent and platform fit

The kit contains external armor panels and frame segments that attach to standard 30MM kit frames. It is aimed at 1/144 30MM platform kits that share the common connector geometry, permitting easy integration with common limbs and torso assemblies.

Fitting and articulation notes

Manufactured for direct assembly using the 30MM snap-fit method, the panels are designed to preserve articulation clearance while adding new anchor points for backpacks and limb components. Builders should check joint clearances when fitting larger panels to retain desired pose ranges.

Finishing and painting guidance

The components are injection-molded in base colors consistent with the 30MM aesthetic and accept panel lining, decals and paint. The surface finish is typical for molded parts and performs predictably with standard hobby primers and paints.

Display guidance

Adding armor and frame parts changes the model silhouette and weight distribution. Test poses on a secure base and use original mounting locations where possible to keep attachments stable. The reversible design supports multiple display setups.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/144
  • Compatibility: 30MM 1/144 series platform kits
  • Assembly: direct snap-style assembly consistent with 30MM construction
  • Parts: injection-molded color components suitable for painting and decal work

A practical option set for extending external armor and mounting points on 30MM 1/144 kits, offering articulation-friendly panels and frame sections that increase display options while remaining removable.

They are designed around the standard 30MM connector geometry used across many 1/144 30MM platform kits. Verify connector type on your target kit to ensure a clean fit.
If the base kit has been significantly altered, some parts may require trial fitting or light modification. For unmodified 30MM kits using standard geometry, the parts should fit as intended.
No special tools are needed for standard installation beyond typical hobby tools for trimming and finishing. Use hobby files and sprue cutters for clean fitting where necessary.
Dry-fit all panels and cycle major joints to spot rubbing points. Mark high-contact areas and remove minimal material incrementally until full range is restored.
Yes, the modular pieces are intended to be removable and the base kit can be returned to its original state provided no permanent modifications are made during fitting.
