The Bandai 5061919 MG 1/100 Eclipse Gundam from the Mobile Suit Gundam SEED MSV collection provides a detailed modelling experience aimed at seasoned Gunpla builders. This Master Grade kit emphasises proportion accuracy and mechanical realism, making it ideal for display or further customisation.
The Eclipse features a carefully engineered transformation system that converts the kit from flight orientation to mobile suit layout. The mechanism is built for repeatable operation and introduces a satisfying engineering challenge during assembly.
Compatibility with existing striker and silhouette components lets modders experiment with different loadouts and visual styles, expanding the kit's configurability.
The box contents include twin beam rifles and beam shield parts with dedicated effect pieces, plus transparent components for the arm shields that add realism. Extra hand sets and a display stand allow for varied presentation choices, from static display to dramatic dioramas.
Colour separation and part mating are strong points of this MG release, resulting in minimal clean-up in many sections. The undergate method helps deliver clean surfaces for painting and lining.
For best results when painting, do light sanding of connector points and use a primer compatible with ABS to ensure durable paintwork and crisp panel lines.
The Bandai 5061919 MG 1/100 Eclipse Gundam is a rewarding project for those who value engineering detail and the ability to personalise their Gunpla.
