Bandai HGUC 1/144 Juaggu (Unicorn Ver.)
This model embodies the technological pinnacle of the famous piloted mobile suit within the Universal Century timeline. Every part of the internal structure faithfully reproduces the original mechanical design, whilst featuring a level of detail unprecedented for this compact scale. The subtle shades of the coloured plastics create a striking visual contrast that brings the robot to life as soon as assembly is complete, without the need for any touch-up painting.
This version’s exclusive articulation system incorporates advanced joints that allow it to replicate the flexibility of the human body with remarkable fluidity. The sturdy armour plates and triple cannons in place of the hands slide in synchronisation with the limbs’ movements to preserve the robot’s distinctive silhouette even in its most dynamic combat poses. This centrepiece stands as the essential centrepiece of any display dedicated to the world of giant combat robots.
