Snapshot of the HG 1/144 Acguy

The Bandai HG 1/144 Acguy puts a compact version of Zeon's amphibious machine into your hands. Its smooth, bulbous panels and distinctive silhouette capture the look from the original Mobile Suit Gundam era while remaining simple to assemble.

Movement and sculpted detail

Despite the small scale, the kit offers clever joint design that allows convincing movement. The moulded segments and telescopic arm pieces let you recreate both neutral and action poses with ease.

Difficulty rating and useful tools

With a moderate rating, this kit sits between beginner and advanced builds. Basic modeller tools like side cutters, a sharp hobby knife, and sanding sticks will cover most assembly tasks.

Tips for prep, paint and sealing

Clean up part gates with light sanding to improve fit. Use a fine wash or panel liner to define panel lines, apply waterslide or dry-transfer decals if available, and protect your paint with a clear topcoat.

Specifications

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

For modellers after a compact, characterful Zeon suit, the HG Acguy offers nostalgic design and solid poseability without overcomplicating the build.

Yes, you can assemble it out of the box and display it, but painting improves accuracy and depth. Primer is recommended for even paint adhesion.
A fine-tipped panel liner or a thin wash will settle into recessed lines and add contrast. Wipe away excess carefully and seal with a clear coat.
The kit typically includes basic water-slide or sticker decals depending on release. Use decal setting solution for better conformity on curved surfaces.
