Gundam Age -1 Normal 1/48 (First Look)

1/48. All I can say is it is HUGE! It's like a blown up 1/144 scale Gundam. With no internal skeleton, I finished snapping this under an hour. Construction is so simple, I had my son to build a few parts for me. The major seam lines are at the calves, forearms and the head. The rest can be easily tackled. Although this is like a Non-Grade kit, the details on it are surprisingly good. As for articulation, don't expect much. Oh, and this comes with a LED light unit (like the ones you find on the MG OO) so the chest and eyes can light up.  



I came across two painted ones and I like both colour schemes.































Size comparison with a HG Gundam Age. 


I am thinking of a orange, white and grey colour scheme. Will work on it and complete this in the next few days. Wish me luck :)

  1. I do have this tingling feeling that you're gonna mod this kit.

  4. @Syful - Just minor ones. Need to squeeze some time for my other projects.

    @A.J13 - No internal frame. Build is like your typical Non-grades. Therefore, pose is limited.
