Bandai 5061586 - MG 1/100 Gundam Exia Model Kit - detailed Master Grade build  [B-5061586]

Step-by-step outlook on the Bandai MG 1/100 Gundam Exia

The Bandai MG 1/100 Gundam Exia serves as a solid Master Grade project for modellers who enjoy mechanical detail. Based on the Mobile Suit Gundam 00 design, this kit balances accurate styling with engineering that supports expressive posing.

Engineering that supports posing and display

Expect precision-moulded parts and robust joints that make dynamic stances straightforward. The limb articulation is engineered to hold poses well and the undergating reduces visible post-trim marks, which helps produce cleaner final panels.

Colour accuracy and painting scope

The factory colour separation is strong, matching the Exia's signature scheme. Clear elements for the GN Condensers and sword components enhance display realism. For custom work, add panel wash, subtle chipping and decals to lift surface detail.

Practical advice for different skill levels

• Beginner Tip: Assemble sub-assemblies before painting to verify fit and alignment, then mask for controlled painting sessions.
• Intermediate Tip: Use a sanding stick with graded grit to ease seams without damaging panel lines.
• Advanced Tip: Incorporate thin wiring or tiny brass details on the inner frame for extra scale realism.

This Bandai MG 1/100 Gundam Exia is a rewarding project for modellers who like high articulation and clean colour separation. With patient finishing it becomes a standout model.
