Bandai 5067267 HG 1/144 GF13-011NC Dragon Gundam Model Kit - high grade display kit  [B-5067267]

Practical notes on the HG 1/144 Dragon Gundam build

For modellers focused on hands-on builds and display pieces, the HG 1/144 Dragon Gundam delivers a satisfying project. Its bold silhouette and purposeful joint design make it a standout addition for collectors who enjoy realistic posing and detailed assembly.

Joint range and styling

This kit offers broad articulation that supports dramatic stances. Shoulder assemblies and articulated arms are engineered to mimic fluid movement, letting you stage dynamic scenes. The dragon claws provide striking visual accents and added posing options for varied displays.

Colour separation and moulded detail

Bandai has used effective colour separation so many panels come pre-moulded in the correct shades, cutting down on painting time. Fine panel lines and textured parts give the kit visual depth while keeping it approachable for modelers who prefer minimal custom paintwork.

Assembly level and workshop tips

Rated at a moderate build level, this High Grade kit is ideal for builders with some prior kit experience. Parts fit cleanly and the instructions are clear, but careful nub cleanup is important to keep edges crisp. Using fine grit sanding sticks for the nubs and a hobby knife for trimming will improve the final appearance, particularly around the dragon claw joints.

The HG 1/144 Dragon Gundam is a worthwhile kit for collectors after a visually bold model with reliable articulation and manageable construction demands.
