• Is this model kit pre-assembled or do I need to build it myself?

  This is a plastic model kit that requires assembly. No glue is needed, but hobby tools like nippers and a file are recommended for the best results.

• What skill level is this model kit suitable for?

  The HG (High Grade) line is beginner-friendly but still detailed enough for intermediate builders. If you’re new to Gunpla, this is a great starting point.

• Are any accessories or weapons included?

  Yes, the BANDAI Hobby HGCE #250 Mighty Strike Freedom Gundam includes a wide variety of accessories and weapons. The kit comes with the Futsunomitama sword, which features two surface finishes for added texture and realism, along with two beam rifles, two beam sabers, and a combined saber grip for dual-saber display options. It also includes a beam shield, waist-mounted deployable railguns, and an optional head part to recreate the revealed state of the forehead cannon. The Proud Defender backpack can be removed and displayed separately, and multiple interchangeable hand parts are included to enhance posing and weapon handling.

• Does it require painting?

  Painting is not required—the kit comes molded in color. However, hobbyists can enhance details with optional paint or panel lining for a more polished look.

• Are batteries or electronics involved in this kit?

  No, this is a non-electronic static model kit. All articulation is mechanical and poseable without batteries.

• What tools do I need to build this model?

  Basic Gunpla tools like plastic nippers, a hobby knife, a sanding file, and panel lining markers are recommended. Glue is not necessary.

• Can this kit be customized or combined with other kits?

  Absolutely! HG kits are great for kitbashing and customizing. You can swap parts, weapons, and accessories with other 1/144 scale HG models.
