HGUC 1/144 Hi-Nu Gundam

Bring the Hi-Nu Gundam from Char’s Counterattack: Beltorchika’s Children to your shelf as a 1/144 HGUC model kit. Bandai uses separate components to reproduce the colour arrangement of the body and shield through assembly. The fin-funnel equipment gives this design its recognisable rear profile, and the movable funnel components can attach to and detach from their racks.

The listed equipment includes a beam rifle, two beam sabers, a New Hyper Bazooka and a shield. This provides several approaches to presenting the finished model, from a rifle-led stance to a display focused on the backpack and its equipment. Arrange the body first, then consider how the weapons affect the overall direction of the pose. The kit is an appealing way to add the novel’s Hi-Nu design to a High Grade collection. Its combination of separated colours, handheld equipment and funnel-rack detail offers plenty to examine without needing to make the display complicated.

Building and finishing

This is an assembly project for your hobby bench. Before starting, read through the instructions, identify the runners and set out a clean space for small components. Trim attachment points carefully and check the orientation of each piece before joining it. If you choose to add panel lining, paint or another finish, test the product on a spare section of runner first and follow its instructions. Work gradually, keeping unused parts together for later reference. Once the model is assembled, adjust one joint or connection at a time and check the balance of your chosen display.
