Hands-on guide to assembling the 1/144 HGUC Crossbone Gundam X1

The Bandai 5056835 - 1/144 HGUC Crossbone Gundam X1 is aimed at experienced Gunpla builders who value engineering and poseability. Taken from the Mobile Suit Crossbone Gundam series, this HGUC kit delivers a satisfying build with runners that show fine detail and smart component design.

Precision jointing and pose control

Articulation is a standout feature on this Crossbone X1, giving you stable dynamic poses that mirror the anime. The joint design balances rigidity and movement, and part fit is generally precise so you spend less time correcting alignment and more time styling poses.

Clean colour separation and panel work

Colour separation on the runners reduces sticker dependence and makes the model look accurate out of the box. The parts take panel lining well, and the kit suits those who like to apply subtle washes or fine-liner work to bring out the sculpted details.

Ready for upgrades and custom finishes

The modular layout makes the Crossbone Gundam X1 a good base for customising or adding aftermarket parts. Hidden undergates help to keep nub marks minimal, which is useful when you plan sanding, painting, or advanced weathering techniques.

For seasoned builders, the Bandai 5056835 - 1/144 HGUC Crossbone Gundam X1 delivers refined engineering and strong posing potential, making it a rewarding addition to a Gunpla collection.
