Hands on with the HG 1/144 Genoace O Custom build

The Bandai 5068688 HG 1/144 Genoace O Custom delivers a satisfying build that will appeal to kit collectors and modellers who enjoy clean engineering and accurate detail. The proportions and panel detail reflect the Mobile Suit Gundam AGE source while keeping assembly straightforward.

Movement and joint layout

Designed for poseability, this Genoace O Custom makes use of multiple articulation points to allow expressive stances. Shoulder and knee joints move smoothly and the centre of gravity helps keep the model upright when you push the limits of dynamic posing.

Skill level and essential kit on the bench

Rated moderate in build difficulty, the kit is well suited to hobbyists with some prior experience. Keep side cutters, a hobby knife and sanding sticks at hand to remove runners and tidy nub marks for a neat finish.

Prep, paint and sealing tips

Light sanding at connection points improves paint adhesion and appearance. Adding panel lines and decals lifts the visual depth, and a clear topcoat will protect paintwork while delivering a consistent sheen for display.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/144
  • Grade: High Grade (HG)
  • Build Level: Moderate

A balanced kit that mixes approachable assembly with enough detail to satisfy modellers who enjoy painting and posing for shelf display.

For an experienced builder doing basic assembly and panel lining, expect a few evenings. Adding paint, decals and topcoat can extend the project to a weekend or more.
Acrylics and enamels both perform well. Use a primer first to improve adhesion, and thin your coats for smooth coverage on small details.
This kit is primarily a display model; adding LEDs requires modification and space planning. Many builders leave it stock or add subtle lighting with small LEDs if desired.
Bandai kits generally use standard runner parts. If a piece is damaged, you can often source spare runners or swap similar parts, but check fit before gluing or painting.
