Rediscover one of the most iconic robots from theAfter War Gundam Xseries with this superb1/144 HG Gundam Leopardmodel kit designed byBandai Spirits. This updated kit from the High Grade (HG) range pays tribute to the powerful long-range combat Mobile Suit piloted by Roybea Loy.
The model immediately stands out thanks to its massive, asymmetrical silhouette in shades of emerald green, military grey and white. The robot’s left flank houses its iconic weapon: the imposing ‘Inner Gatling’ rotating cannon, which connects directly to the shoulder and can swivel forwards to assume a firing position. The armour conceals a full arsenal: the thruster on the right shoulder pivots to reveal a missile rack, whilst the left knee opens to deploy a ‘Beam Knife’ melee weapon.
Thanks to Bandai’s modern High Grade joint engineering, the Gundam Leopard boasts excellent flexibility. Its hips and ankles are reinforced to support the asymmetrical weight of its heavy weapons, ensuring perfect stability during ground-based firing poses. Assembly is carried out entirely via snap-fit, resulting in a clean finish that remains faithful to the anime illustrations.
