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.

How's the articulation compared to other HGUC kits?

While its bulky form might suggest otherwise, the Sazabi boasts surprisingly good articulation in the arms, legs, and head. You can achieve dynamic poses, even use action bases for aerial maneuvers. It's a shelf-dominating titan with surprising flexibility!

Can I customize this Sazabi beyond the pre-molded red and gray?

Any concerns about the 12 funnels? Are they fragile or difficult to attach?

The funnels are secure and click-fit into place, allowing for different poses and display options. However, some reviewers mention they might feel loose initially. You can easily fix this with hobby glue or tightening techniques.

Anything else I should know before welcoming this Zeon legend to my shelf?

The shield can obstruct arm movement in certain poses. However, its imposing presence and iconic design make it a worthwhile addition for any Zeon fan. Just be prepared for its shelf dominance and the endless possibilities for customization!

Comments: If you dont want to step up to RG or MG it's good but it is the same price as some RGs
NPS score:
0 (Not at all likely)
10 (Extremely likely)
Likes: I was allowed to keep it when it was mistakenly sent instead of the RG Sazabi I ordered (the RG was then sent when I emailed support)
A step above your usual High Grade

Super engaging to build HG Sazabi, being that little bit bigger and more complex than most high grades.

Colour accuracy is good with only eye and emblem stickers, the sqaures around the waist and the inside of the thrusters need yellow so I'm excited to make this my first little painting project.

Would shine with an action base as the legs and waist articulation are limited.
