Compact Gunpla: Bandai 5065616 SD Gundam EX-STANDARD Aile Strike Gundam Model Kit  [B-5065616]

Overview of the Bandai SD Gundam EX-STANDARD Aile Strike Gundam

The SD Gundam EX-STANDARD range reimagines classic mobile suits in a compact, collectible format, and the Aile Strike Gundam captures that charm well. This kit balances simple construction with the recognisable Strike silhouette, making it a satisfying build for hobbyists who want a quick project that still looks great on a shelf.

Build approach and part fit

This Aile Strike release focuses on approachable construction, with runners that snap together cleanly and require minimal trimming. New builders will find the assembly straightforward, while more experienced modellers can easily prepare the parts for panel lining, masking and paintwork thanks to the straightforward engineering and solid fit.

Movement and display options

Although it follows SD proportions, the Aile Strike Gundam offers a respectable range of articulation. The joints are designed for expressive poses, letting you stage action stances or compact diorama setups without fighting the kit's geometry.

Painting and upgrades

The kit's simple surfaces are excellent for practicing finishing techniques like panel lining, weathering and basic airbrushing. Its clean colour separation makes sticker and decal application simple, and customisers will find space to add small detailing parts or painted accents.

Bandai SD Gundam EX-STANDARD Aile Strike Gundam is a great pick for anyone wanting a short, rewarding build that still offers room for creative finishing and display.
