The HG 1/144 Hyakuren from Bandai's Iron-Blooded Orphans lineup offers a focused design that makes it enjoyable for both first time and seasoned Gunpla builders. Its aesthetic keeps true to the source while remaining approachable for kitbashing and paintwork.
This model balances a compact frame with thoughtful articulation, allowing for lively poses while keeping the centre of gravity stable. Key joints around the shoulders and knees are engineered to hold positions during display.
Expect a moderate assembly experience. Basic modelling tools such as nippers, a sharp hobby knife and sanding paper will help you achieve cleaner seams and remove leftover sprue marks.
Prepare surfaces with gentle sanding before applying primer and paint. Use panel lines to pick out the sculpted detail and seal with a clear coat to protect your work and reduce handling wear.
The HG 1/144 Hyakuren packs good poseability and clean detail into a small footprint, making it a versatile kit for custom finishing or a quick, satisfying build.
