Construct Char Aznable's MS-06S Zaku II in HG 1/144

The Bandai 5057656 HG 1/144 Char's Zaku II Red Comet captures the iconic form from Mobile Suit Gundam The Origin. This rendition reflects the MS-06S heritage with sculpted panels and the signature red tone associated with Char's unit.

Sculpt Detail and Movement

The kit emphasises panel detail and reliable articulation, enabling expressive stances for dioramas or shelf display. The engineering around the shoulders and hips helps maintain balance in more dynamic poses.

Who Should Build This and What to Use

Intended for intermediate builders, the kit rewards careful assembly. Recommended tools include quality side cutters, a sharp hobby knife and sanding sticks to remove nubs and tidy seams.

Tips for Painting and Sealing

To deepen details, apply panel wash after light sanding and use decals to reproduce markings. Finish with a matt or gloss topcoat depending on the display look you prefer.

Char's Zaku II Red Comet is a solid HG kit that blends classic styling with practical poseability, making it a strong pick for collectors who like to customise and display their builds.
