Overview of the HGUC 1/144 GM Type C release

The HGUC 1/144 RGM-79C GM Type C is a noteworthy release in the HGUC series, designed with careful engineering to represent the Federation mobile suit faithfully. Builders will appreciate the balance between detail and manageable assembly steps.

Movement range and shell fit

Movement is a key strength for this kit, with joints that allow convincing action poses. The parts are split to avoid awkward seam lines, so most panels fit together cleanly without heavy modification.

Build difficulty and workshop essentials

This kit sits at a moderate difficulty, suitable for hobbyists moving beyond entry level. Essential tools include sprue cutters, an X-Acto or hobby knife, and sanding sticks or files for tidy joins.

Preparing surfaces and final finishing

Preparing surfaces with light sanding helps paint adhesion and smoother joins. Panel lining and decal application sharpen details, while a protective clear coat helps preserve the finish.

Specifications

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

This HGUC 1/144 kit is a good pick for modellers who want a faithful, poseable GM Type C that assembles cleanly and displays well after modest finishing work.

A straightforward build with basic finishing can take a few hours; more detailed painting and weathering will extend the time considerably.
Not usually. The provided joints permit a range of poses, though add-on polycaps or aftermarket parts can improve stability if desired.
The decals are straightforward; use tweezers and a softening solution if needed. Sealing decals with a clear coat prevents lifting and improves durability.
