1/144 G-01 GF13-017NJ Shining Gundam G-Gundam

$8.99

The GF13-017NJ Shining Gundam is a close-quarters combat Mobile Fighter from Mobile Fighter G Gundam, which takes place in a new Gundam Universe centered around a global fighting tournament instead of the typical conflict between Earth and the Space Colonies. Each competing nation duels with unique Mobile Fighters, fighting each other in one-on-one battles until a single Gundam remains standing. The victorious nation is granted rule over all of Earth’s space colonies for four years until the next Gundam Fight begins. Neo Japan sent the GF13-017NJ Shining Gundam to Earth alongside the JMF13-36R Rising Gundam to compete in the opening rounds of the 13th Gundam Fight, operated by “King of Hearts” Domon Kasshu.

Included alongside the 1/144 Shining Gundam for accessories:

  • Beam Saber
  • Super Mode Face Part


Articulation –

The 1/144 Shining Gundam is about as old-school as it gets when it comes to currently-in-production model kits from Bandai, predating many of the Grading systems that now define all Gunpla models in the current era. The simplistic assembly of all the Non-Grade 1/144 G Fighter model kits makes them perfect for first-time builders and youngsters alike! Builders can extend the 1/144 Shining Gundam’s forearm armor to replicate the activation of battle mode. This model does feature an early iteration of double-jointed knees, providing a wide range of motion to recreate all the martial arts action seen throughout Mobile Fighter G Gundam!

Weapons and Other Notable Attributes –

The 1/144 Shining Gundam features a functioning Core Lander gimmick! Builders can remove the model’s backpack and fold the cockpit into position to replicate the Core Lander’s transformed state. Bandai provided an alternate face part to represent the activation of the 1/144 Shining Gundam’s battle mode. This model includes a small sheet of color-correcting foil stickers to help recreate the 1/144 Shining Gundam’s anime appearance right out of the box!

Description

By implementing the technique of Top Coating, you can do a great deal to help preserve the longevity of your models. This process will protect the original plastic of your model kit and prepare it for any additional modeling techniques to follow.

You can drastically improve your results by making the details pop on the 1/144 G-01 GF13-017NJ Shining Gundam G-Gundam with Panel Lining. The simplest solution for this is Gundam Markers or Tamiya Panel Line Fluid. If you’re up to a challenge making panel wash is always a great option too! It is always recommended to Topcoat with clear gloss beforehand, as some of the products commonly used for Panel Lining will degrade the untreated plastics over time.

Another way to keep adding detail is by applying Stickers/Marking Decals. Top Coating before application will help decals stick to the surface much better. Using Top Coat after application will help hide the seams on traditional sticker decals as well as waterslides. This additional step will also keep them from peeling over time. Using Decals is a great way to add an even greater level of detail to your scale models.
