Bandai 5066006 - HG 1/144 Gundam Hajiroboshi 2nd Form Kit  [B-5066006]

Workshop Notes for Gundam Hajiroboshi 2nd Form

The High Grade 1/144 Gundam Hajiroboshi 2nd Form provides a hands-on build that appeals to hobbyists who enjoy clean assembly. Coming from the Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans series, the kit features well-thought-out sprue separation and functional joint design for rewarding construction.

Movement, Balance and Surface Quality

Engineered to support dynamic poses, the Hajiroboshi 2nd Form incorporates flexible shoulders and a multi-axis waist for balanced stances. The moulded armour sections offer good colour split, which reduces the need for extensive repainting to capture the anime look.

Difficulty Rating and Handy Tools

Classed as a moderate difficulty kit, it suits builders who have used basic Gunpla tools before. Recommended workshop items include side cutters, a fine hobby knife and sanding sticks to clean up parts and seams.

Prep and Finish Advice

To elevate the kit finish, perform light sanding, add panel lines and use decals where appropriate; a clear matt or gloss coat will protect paint and unify the surface finish.

For collectors and builders seeking a compact model with solid poseability and scope for custom finishing, the HG 1/144 Gundam Hajiroboshi 2nd Form is a practical pick.
