Assembly Guide

Skill Level.2 Basic modeling skills are required. Parental supervision may be required for younger children. These kits are generally suitable for beginner builders. A basic set of modeling tools are required including nippers, hobby knife, sanding sticks/paper, file, and tweezers. No glue is needed for the general assembly. Parts will need to be removed by using a pair of nippers and cutting the part away from the runner. Parts may require clean-up where they were removed from the runner.

Gunpla (plastic model kits) are a snap together assembly and do not need plastic cement to complete. We always recommend having some plastic cement handy as a part of your modeler's tool kit. If you prefer to fix your model in a particular pose then plastic cement will work. Plastic cement is also perfect to use if a joint is loose. Apply plastic cement in a single thin layer and allow it to dry completely before test fitting. Re-apply more cement if necessary.

Gunpla (plastic model kits) are designed to be built and displayed without the need for painting. Kits are molded in different colours replicating the colours of the actual mecha from the Gundam series. A technique called colour separation, where multiple parts of the model are molded in different colours on the same sprue is also used. Gundam kits often include stickers or water-slide decals that can be applied to the model to enhance its appearance. Some Gunpla kits come with pre-painted parts or parts with pre-applied details, such as metallic or translucent finishes.

Many modelers still choose to paint their kits to customize and add further detail. Painting allows for more creativity and personalization, enabling modelers to achieve unique effects, weathering, and colour schemes that may not be available out of the box. However, the kits are designed to be enjoyable and visually appealing even without painting, making them accessible to a wide range of hobbyists.

Frequently Asked Questions

This Penelope looks huge! Is it bigger than other 1/144 models?

You got it! The Penelope stands taller than most HGUC kits due to its unique bird-like design and Fixed Flight Unit. It's a real shelf-dominator, but the build remains manageable thanks to the snap-fit system.

I've never built a transforming Gunpla. Is the Penelope difficult?

Don't worry! The Penelope's transformation is straightforward and intuitive, thanks to clear instructions and well-designed parts. You'll be switching between mobile suit and flight mode in no time!

Pre-molded white and gold look cool, but can I customize it further?

Absolutely! Decals, stickers, and hand-painting can add unique markings, weathering effects, or even custom color schemes. The Penelope is your canvas, so let your creativity take flight!

How does it pose compared to other HGUC kits?

The large wings and movable joints offer great posing options. You can recreate iconic scenes from Hathaway's Flash or design your own dynamic displays. An action base can take your Penelope soaring to new heights on your shelf!

Anything else I should know about the Penelope before buying it?

Some reviews mention slightly loose joints in certain areas, easily fixable with hobby glue or tightening techniques.
