Bandai RE/100 1/100 MSN-04 II Nightingale
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 a model of this size. 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 linkages that allow it to replicate the flexibility of the human body with remarkable fluidity. The massive armour plates and gigantic dorsal joints slide in unison as the limbs move, preserving the robot’s lines even in its most dynamic heavy combat poses. This centrepiece stands as the indispensable heart of any display dedicated to the world of giant combat robots.
