Bandai SD EX-Standard Nu Gundam
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 engraving detail unprecedented for this compact pocket-sized format. 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 streamlined armour plates and the iconic Fin Funnels slide in unison with the limbs’ movements to preserve the robot’s disproportionate and cute silhouette even in its most dynamic action poses. This centrepiece stands as the essential heart of any display dedicated to the world of parody giant combat robots.
