Series Assembly Guide FAQ

Bandai 1/144 HGUC MRX-009 Psycho Gundam

Though it's spelled 'Psycho' and brings to mind lonely motels and a preternatural love of mother, the name of this Gundam refers to the "PSYchic COmmunications" system that allows the pilot to "think" reports back to home base. The box is huge; though the scale is 1/144 the box is easily as big as that of a Master Grade kit! But all those parts (about 218, plus polycaps), are necessary -- the completed model folds down into Mobile Armour! Molded all in colour; features snap-fit assembly, and stickers for details.

Assembly Guide

SKILL LEVEL REQUIRED

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.

No Cement Required

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.

No Painting Required

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 Psycho Gundam looks huge! Is it really 1/144 scale?

You're not wrong! This Gunpla is a behemoth even in 1/144 scale. It stands almost 12 inches tall thanks to its massive proportions and iconic beam cannon backpack. Be prepared to clear some serious shelf space for this psycho giant!

Can it transform like in the anime?

Unfortunately, full transformation into mobile armor mode isn't possible with this HG kit. However, you can detach the backpack to display the Psycho Gundam in its more mobile assault form, showcasing its impressive weaponry and menacing presence.

How's the articulation for such a big model?

Surprisingly good! Despite its size, the HGUC Psycho Gundam maintains decent articulation in the arms, legs, and head. You can achieve dynamic poses and recreate some of its iconic moments from Zeta Gundam, even if extreme angles might be limited compared to smaller kits.

Is it beginner-friendly to build?

While it's not the simplest Gunpla, the snap-fit construction and pre-colored parts make it manageable for beginners. The clear instructions guide you through the process, and the satisfyingly large size makes the build even more rewarding. Just be prepared for a longer construction time than usual HG kits.

What makes this Psycho Gundam special compared to other kits?

Besides its impressive size and iconic design, this kit boasts several unique features. The individually articulated beam cannon fingers add a touch of creepy realism, and the transformable backpack further enhances its display options. It's a true conversation starter for any Gunpla collection.
