HG 1/100 Gundam-X

The HG 1/100 Gundam-X is a plastic model kit from the BANDAI HOBBY brand, representing the iconic GX-9900 Gundam X mobile suit from the "After War Gundam X" anime series. This High Grade (HG) kit, released in 1996, is presented in a 1/100 scale, offering a larger and more detailed building experience. It accurately captures the signature look and clean proportions of the Gundam X, as piloted by Garrod Ran.

Key features of this model kit include its functional gimmicks that highlight the mobile suit's distinctive equipment. The powerful Satellite Cannon's barrel can slide into its firing position, and its reflector panels feature a deployment mechanism that allows for recreation of both hovering and cannon firing modes. These reflector panels are enhanced with special holographic stickers that change their luster when viewed from different angles. The Shield Buster Rifle, a versatile weapon that functions as both a shield and a rifle, can open, close, extend, and has a sight that can be stored. For articulation, the kit features a ball-jointed head, polycapped shoulders with a good range of motion, and hands on ball joints. The elbows offer approximately 110 degrees of bend, while the double-jointed legs allow for about a 90-degree bend at the knees. Some of the plastic runners, particularly the purple ones, are molded with metallic flakes, adding a subtle visual detail.

The kit comes with a comprehensive set of armaments and accessories for display.
