P-Bandai Gunpla HG 1/144 GF13-011NC Dragon Gundam Review

The HGFC Dragon Gundam is here, adding to the lineup of Premium Bandai-exclusive kits like Rose and Maxter Gundam. Priced at 3,960 yen, this kit delivers striking visuals and fun features that fans of Mobile Fighter G Gundam will love.

What’s in the Box?

You get a solid package of parts and accessories:

Multiple hand options (gripping, pointing, and expressive poses).
The iconic Feilong Flags with effects (6 pieces) and arm extensions.
PET material effects for dynamic displays.
An Action Base 5 for posing flexibility.

Stickers are minimal, covering small details like sensors and the Core Lander canopy.

Design Highlights

Dragon Gundam’s design screams G Gundam flair with its dragon-themed arms and Chinese armor-inspired aesthetic. The proportions are dynamic, and the color separation is excellent for an HG kit, with barely any reliance on stickers. The dragon-head arms are a standout, featuring opening jaws and detailed parts like separate eyes.

Articulation and Build

This kit’s articulation is impressive, with modern engineering ensuring smooth movement. However, the intricate designs around the dragon arms and head require careful handling to avoid collisions.

Head: Sharper details and better part separation than older kits.
Arms: The dragon heads double as claws and look fantastic.
Legs: Simple but sturdy with great posing options.

The Feilong Flags and arm extensions add versatility, letting you recreate iconic attacks like the Shin Ryuusei Kochouken.

Display Options

The included butterfly-shaped PET effect for Shin Ryuusei Kochouken is a visual treat, and the Feilong Flags can be set up dynamically for action-packed poses. Pair it with other HGFC kits like Maxter or Rose Gundam for a perfect Shuffle Alliance display.

Summary

The HGFC Dragon Gundam is a must-have for G Gundam fans. Its unique design, excellent color accuracy, and fun accessories make it a standout kit. With Bolt Gundam completing the team soon, this lineup is shaping up to be legendary!
