Bandai 5060404 - HGUC 1/144 Gundam Operation V Set Retro Mobile Suit Set  [B-5060404]

Overview of the HGUC Operation V Release

The Bandai 5060404 - HGUC 1/144 Gundam Operation V Set presents three original Mobile Suit Gundam machines: RX-78-2 Gundam, RX-77-2 Guncannon, and RX-75 Guntank. The lineup offers a mix of build styles so you can test basic assembly techniques and some tighter fit areas. Parts are well separated by colour which reduces the need for heavy painting for display-ready builds.

Specifications

Movement Range and Model Accuracy

Each kit has a joint layout that supports classic poses from the series. The RX-78-2 has wide limb articulation for action stances, the Guncannon can hold its weapons in supporting postures, and the Guntank lets you explore low, tank-like displays thanks to its tracked lower body.

Recommended Build Setup and Tools

These kits are suited to modellers with some previous experience. Keep side cutters, a sharp hobby knife and sanding tools on hand to tidy runners, clean joins and prepare parts for optional painting.

Preparing Surfaces and Basic Finishing Advice

Remove small seam lines and lightly sand visible nubs before painting. Panel lining brings out mechanical detail, and applying provided stickers or waterslide decals followed by a clear coat will protect the finish and sharpen colours.

For collectors wanting classic Mobile Suit designs in a compact HG format, this set delivers recognisable silhouettes with sensible assembly and display options.
