Bandai Model Kit HG 1/144 RX-79BD-1 Blue Destiny Unit 1 'EXAM
Infiltrate the intense military operations of the Universal Century with the articulated model of the RX-79BD-1 Blue Destiny Unit 1 "EXAM". From the popular video game and manga series Mobile Suit Gundam Side Story: The Blue Destiny, this is a High Grade (HG) model in 1/144 scale. Specially designed by Bandai for fans of Japanese culture and Gunpla, this kit brings to life the fearsome Earth Federation ground unit, secretly modified to house the mysterious and terrifying EXAM system.
The robust, purely military silhouette of this mecha is distinguished by its emblematic full cobalt blue livery, contrasting with the classic colours of the Federation, and its aggressive, commando-like lines. Thanks to the modern engineering of the High Grade range, the model has total articular freedom to execute highly realistic combat postures on the ground. It's the ideal centrepiece for structuring your collection and adding a strong mechanical and historical presence to your display case.
