Dominate the skies with the RX-105 Xi Gundam, the Mafty organisation’s flagship mecha, reimagined by Bandai Spirits in an exclusive limited-edition version.
This 1/144-scale High Grade (HG) kit captures the sheer scale of this technological behemoth from the Universal Century. Featuring a colossal silhouette and sleek white armour accented with touches of midnight blue, yellow and red, the Xi Gundam far exceeds the size of standard HG models. This special edition faithfully reproduces the mobile suit as seen at the end of the animated film and includes brand-new parts to recreate the work’s most intense battle scenes.
Integrated transformation and enhanced combat realism:
The model’s key feature is its ability to transform fully from its standard Mobile Suit form into its supersonic flight configuration (Flight Form). The dorsal armour panels, stabilisers and chest wings deploy seamlessly. To enhance authenticity, the set includes a replacement faceplate to alter the facial expression, as well as a heavy shield bearing traces of damage and impact marks sustained in battle.
A state-of-the-art arsenal and stable articulation:
The kit provides the latest generation of heavy weaponry: a Beam Rifle complete with a dedicated removable barrel mount, two Beam Sabres with translucent blades, and a set of expressive interchangeable hands for dynamic poses. The reinforced joints ensure impeccable stability despite the robot’s imposing size.
