Bandai HGUC #78 1/144 MSM-04 Acguy Model Kit

The Bandai HGUC #78 1/144 MSM-04 Acguy is a snap-fit plastic model kit based on the amphibious mobile suit from the original Mobile Suit Gundam anime series. Produced by the Zeonic Company for the Principality of Zeon, the Acguy is known for its low heat signature, making it ideal for stealth and infiltration operations such as the iconic assault on Jaburo. This HGUC kit is suitable for beginner to intermediate builders, requiring no glue or paint for assembly. Originally released in April 2007, the kit features detailed inner frame mechanics that are uncommon for an HG-grade kit of its era. Key Features Poseable Mono-Eye: The mono-eye moves along a guide rail inside a faithfully detailed head interior for expressive posing. Extendable Arms: Multi-jointed extension arm pieces can attach to both arms or combine together for an extended reach configuration. Interchangeable Right Arm Weapons: The right forearm can be built with either the Iron Nail claw (retracted or extended mode) or the Missile + Mega Particle Cannon piece. 08th MS Team Compatibility: Includes a stub piece that attaches to the right arm with the Iron Nail installed on the left arm, recreating the damaged Acguy from the 08th MS Team OVA. Detailed Inner Frame: Features mechanical detail on the internal frame parts for the head, arms, and legs - uncommon for an HG kit. Action Base Compatible: A removable panel underneath the crotch reveals a mounting point for Action Base stands (sold separately). Pivoting Backpack Boosters: The rear thruster units can pivot for dynamic posing.
