Bandai 5064888 - RG 1/144 Strike Freedom Deactive Mode Gundam Kit  [B-5064888]

RG 1/144 Strike Freedom Gundam Deactive Mode overview

The RG 1/144 Strike Freedom Gundam Deactive Mode presents a rewarding build for modelers who enjoy clean engineering in a small footprint. Based on the ZGMF-X20A from Gundam SEED Destiny, this variant uses a subdued deactivated palette that separates it visually from active versions. As a Real Grade release, it packs fine surface detail and clever internal framing into 1/144 scale.

Poseability and engineering details

This kit features the articulation and part separation that RG fans expect, allowing natural, action-oriented poses. Engineering choices like undergating reduce visible nub marks, and the precise molding helps parts sit together with minimal gaps. These details improve both the build experience and final presentation.

Assembly level and handy tools

The assembly sits at a moderate difficulty, best suited to builders with some prior kit experience. Recommended tools include side cutters for clean parts removal, a sharp hobby knife for cleanup, and a set of sanding sticks for smoothing joints. Tweezers can help with the smallest components.

Surface finishing and decal tips

Light sanding on panels and careful panel lining will bring out depth on the finished model. Apply the included decals to add markings, and finish with a clear topcoat to protect your work and lock in the look for display.

The RG 1/144 Strike Freedom Gundam Deactive Mode is a compact yet detailed kit that rewards careful assembly and finishing, making it a strong choice for display-oriented collectors.
