Hands-on build overview for Infinite Justice 1/144 HGCE

The Bandai 1/144 Infinite Justice Gundam HGCE No.231 is a compact yet detailed kit that appeals to modellers who like precise builds. Drawn from Mobile Suit Gundam SEED Destiny, it captures the mobile suit's slim profile and weapon set. As part of the HGCE range the kit offers a sensible balance between visible detail and manageable assembly steps.

Tidy engineering and secure joins

Parts on this HGCE snap together with good alignment and minimal gap issues. Under-gating on many parts reduces the need for heavy cleanup. The panel lines are distinct, making it straightforward to pick out detail with panel washing or fine liners.

Ready colour blocks and customising scope

Moulded colour separation is strong, which means less mandatory painting for an accurate on-sprue look. For those wanting to personalise the kit, it is well suited to light weathering, metallic accents or minor kitbashing to create a unique finish.

Practical build tips and finishing notes

The kit is appropriate for intermediate builders and determined beginners. For clean nub removal use fine-grit sanding between 1000 and 1500. A thin coat of a primer such as Mr. Hobby's Mr. Surfacer improves adhesion on ABS and gives a more consistent surface for paint.

The Bandai 1/144 Infinite Justice Gundam HGCE No.231 is a reliable High Grade kit that suits modellers practising seam work or experimenting with subtle paintwork. It offers a satisfying build and good scope for creativity.
