Bandai 5065600 HG 1/144 Zaku High Mobility Surface Type WALD Special  [B-5065600]

Overview of the HG Zaku High Mobility Surface Type

The HG 1/144 Zaku High Mobility Surface Type (WALD) joins Bandai's Gunpla range with a recognisable silhouette and a Wald paint scheme that stands out on the shelf. It mixes classic Zaku lines with upgraded joint engineering to make posing more expressive and rewarding.

Joint performance and pose options

This version emphasises mobility, delivering wide ranges at the shoulders and knees so the model can be arranged in compelling action stances. The joint design supports balanced poses without excessive reliance on stands.

Skill level and handy tools

Rated as a moderate build, the kit suits those who have completed a few HG projects. Keep side cutters, a sharp hobby knife and fine sanding tools handy to remove nubs and tidy panel edges.

Finishing, decals and weathering advice

Beyond straight build, light panel lining and selective painting will add depth to the WALD colour. Decals and a satin or matt topcoat help protect work and unify the finish.

For modellers who like to tweak paint and pose, the HG 1/144 Zaku High Mobility Surface Type (WALD) is a worthwhile build. Its balance of detail and joint range supports a range of display styles.
