P-Bandai Gunpla HGCE 1/144 NOG-M4F Black Knight Squad Rud-ro. A Redelard Unit & Daniel Unit & Liu Unit Set Review

The HGCE Black Knight Squad Rud-ro.A features the Liderad, Daniel, and Liu units, released as a Premium Bandai exclusive. The set includes the three remaining units from the NOG-M4F Black Knight Squad, with the Griffin Albarest unit previously available in general retail. The price for the set is 8,910 yen.

The packaging is full-color, and while the instructions are reused from the Griffin unit, an additional sheet is provided to cover paint and sticker details.


Set Contents

Each unit comes with a high-energy beam rifle, shield, anti-mobile suit heavy slash sword with beam blade, and a beam mantle. These accessories are included in three sets for each unit.

Three sets of stickers are provided, each corresponding to the color scheme of the units. The shapes of the stickers remain unchanged.

The set includes leftover parts from the Black Knight Squad Shi-ve.A, such as pieces to fill the backpack holes. Three sets of these extra parts are included.


Kit Design and Color Scheme

The kit is based on the Griffin unit and features no significant changes in design. The units are differentiated by their color schemes: orange, light blue, and pink. The black and gray parts are identical in all units. The joints are made of KPS material, and the base model is the Black Knight Squad Shi-ve.A. The joints retain their metallic gray color.


Weapon and Mantle Attachment

The mantles and weapons can be attached to the units. The heavy slash sword attaches to the backpack, and the rifle to the waist. The beam mantles, made of PVC with a gradient finish, can be securely fixed to the backpack, appearing thin and well-integrated.


Head Unit

The head unit is similar across all units, with the main difference being the color of the forehead. The mono-eye is recreated with stickers, and no additional molding is present. Two types of mono-eye stickers are available: a straight and an S-shaped version.


Upper Body

The upper body maintains a balanced, simple design, with color differentiation achieved through molded parts. The backpack’s color details are provided by stickers, while the upper body’s differing colors are molded.


Backpack and Beam Mantle

The backpack and beam mantle feature a matte and glossy finish. The central part of the backpack is color-separated, but the side lines are complemented by stickers.


Heavy Slash Sword

The arm for the heavy slash sword can swing, and the sword can be attached without the arm. According to the instructions, the grip guard should face forward. When attached in this direction, the sword is securely fixed.


Arm Unit

The arm unit features molded seams and a rectangular joint for shield attachment. Flat hands are not included in this set.


Leg Unit

The leg unit has a simple silhouette with minimized seams. The outer thigh bulge is not color-separated but is covered by a sticker. The feet are solid with no hollow parts, and the toes are articulated.


Articulation

The articulation remains unchanged, featuring the SEED Action System’s KPS joints for wide swinging motion in the torso and dynamic posing. The legs have good ground contact, although the side armor may detach when the legs are spread too far.


Display Comparison

Displaying all four units together is impressive. For detailed comparisons with the base model, the Black Knight Squad Shi-ve.A, refer to the Griffin unit review.


Weapons

High-Energy Beam Rifle

The OWC-M1R1/F high-energy beam rifle remains unchanged in color and design, with molded seams for simplicity.


Shield

The OTS-M26 shield follows the color patterns of each unit, providing a colorful appearance when displayed together. The shield attaches to the forearm with limited rotation and angle adjustment.


Heavy Slash Sword

The OWC-QZ200 anti-mobile suit heavy slash sword retains its original color and beam effect. It is lightweight and easy to handle with one hand.


Summary

The HGCE Black Knight Squad Rud-ro.A set allows collectors to complete their squad with the Liderad, Daniel, and Liu units. Despite being color variants of the Griffin unit, the set provides a cohesive and visually appealing display. The kit’s excellent base design ensures smooth articulation and compatibility with other kits. The units are easy to assemble, with parts organized by individual units, making the process efficient. Fans of the Gundam SEED FREEDOM series will appreciate the ability to display the complete Black Knight Squad.

This concludes the review of the HGCE NOG-M4F Black Knight Squad Rud-ro.A  Liderad, Daniel, and Liu Units Set. The set offers a convenient way to collect all three units with minimal color differences from the Griffin unit. It’s a valuable addition for collectors looking to complete their squad without the hassle of repainting.
