HG 1/144 Gundam Aerial - Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch from Mercury
Welcome to the Ad Stella Era
Step into the cockpit of the most revolutionary machine of the new generation. At Dragoon Gaming, we are proud to offer the HG 1/144 Gundam Aerial, the definitive High Grade representation of Suletta Mercury’s mobile suit from the hit series Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch from Mercury. This kit is celebrated as a modern masterpiece, offering a perfect entry point for beginners while providing the sophisticated detail and "GUND-ARM" technology that veteran builders crave.
Next-Generation Engineering & The GUND Format
The HG Gundam Aerial is a triumph of modern Bandai Spirits design. This 1/144 scale kit features the iconic "Shell Units" on the chest, head, and thighs, which utilize In-Mold Decoration (IMD) parts and double-sided stickers to recreate the glowing Permet Score pulse seen in the anime. The armor is molded in vibrant white, blue, and yellow, capturing the organic and futuristic silhouette that sets the Aerial apart from traditional Gundam designs.
Why the HG Gundam Aerial is a Must-Have:
-
The Escutcheon Shield System: The signature shield can be disassembled into 11 separate "Bit Stave" units. These can be deployed as remote weaponry or attached to the mobile suit to form the high-mobility Bit-on Form.
-
Incredible Articulation: Designed with a specialized ball-joint system in the chest and waist, allowing the Aerial to perform natural, human-like poses with ease.
-
Gimmick-Rich Weaponry: Includes the Beam Rifle (which can be upgraded with Bit Stave parts) and two Beam Sabers with translucent green effect parts.
-
Permet Score Visuals: Choose between the "active" glowing state or the "inactive" dark state for the Shell Units using the included specialized sticker sets.
-
Beginner Friendly: Known for its straightforward assembly and excellent color separation, making it one of the most recommended "first builds" at Dragoon Gaming.
How to build:
The HG Aerial is a joy to assemble, featuring a "snap-fit" design that requires zero glue. At Dragoon Gaming, we recommend using a Gundam Marker GM-01 (Black) to define the subtle panel lines on the white armor. To truly make the Shell Units pop, use the GMS-110 Fine Edge Set (Metallic Green) for the smaller sensors. For a professional finish, a light coat of Matte Top Coat will give the armor a realistic, non-plastic appearance while keeping the clear Shell Units protected.
