Bandai HGUC 1/144 Penelope
Immerse yourself in the most spectacular aerial battles in science fiction with this exceptional articulated 1/144 scale replica. This model kit allows you to assemble one of the most massive, complex and imposing mobile armours in Japanese animation, famous for its silhouette of a white cybernetic creature and its oversized geometric lines. Designed to deliver an unrivalled physical presence at this scale, this model features a dense, multi-layered armour design and incredibly detailed mechanical reliefs, making it an absolute centrepiece to adorn a workspace or impress visitors in a display case.
This scale model draws on the brand’s cutting-edge engineering, offering a rewarding, monumental and remarkably seamless building experience. The robot’s structure conceals extraordinary modularity: the outer flight armour can be completely detached to reveal the autonomous base robot housed within. Fully solution-dyed and fitted with high-end articulated components, this kit guarantees a superb visual finish worthy of the finest model-making studios as soon as the final piece is snapped into place, completely eliminating the need for the builder to use glue or paint to complete the model.
