Assembling the RX-93 Nu Gundam in Metallic Coating

The Bandai 5055613 - HGUC 1/144 RX-93 Nu Gundam Metallic Coating Ver. recreates the Nu Gundam from Mobile Suit Gundam: Char's Counterattack with a pre-applied metallic surface. The kit highlights clean part splits and faithful styling, appealing to builders who want a standout shelf piece straight from the box or with light finishing work.

Movement and Construction Details

This HGUC kit gives reliable articulation for action poses, with shoulder joints engineered to swivel and hold tension for aerial or combat stances. Build complexity is moderate and in line with High Grade expectations; a pair of nippers, a hobby blade, and some sanding files will make assembly neater.

Preparing Surfaces and Enhancing Detail

The metallic coating is designed to deliver a lustrous result while minimising visible seams. Panel lining, decal application, and subtle weathering will add realism if you want to push the finish further. A light clear coat can protect decals and intensify the metallic luster.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/144
  • Grade: High Grade (HG)
  • Build Level: Normal

This HGUC Nu Gundam metallic version is a good fit for modelers who want a polished metallic look with solid poseability and a straightforward build process.

No glue is required for standard assembly since parts snap together. Use plastic cement only for permanent joins or custom modifications.
Apply a thin panel line wash or use a fine Gundam marker to accent grooves. Wipe excess gently with a cotton bud to keep lines crisp.
Many modders adapt HGUC parts for custom builds; check joint sizes and connection points when swapping limbs or weapons to ensure a solid fit.
Light sanding and careful priming can smooth seams while keeping the metallic finish. Test methods on spare runners to avoid damaging visible surfaces.
