RG Force Impulse Gundam 1/144

This RG gunpla of the ZGMF-X56S/α Force Impulse Gundam from Mobile Suit Gundam Seed Destiny features a new design take on the classic mobile suit with enhanced surface details and a more mechanical focus giving the impression of a more realistic looking machine when complete. 

The highly detailed inner frame for this gunpla kit has been completely redesigned compared to previous seed real grade kits. The advanced MS joint in this kit is only used in a small area of the chest and within the backpack. The rest of the internal inner frame is built in a more traditional manner. The advanced MS joint features insert moulding which allows for precise details without hampering the transformation of this mobile suit between its various forms.

When completed you will have a fully articulated and poseable model that faithfully recreates the Force Impluse Gundam mobile suit as piloted by Shinn Asuka and featured in Mobile Suit Gundam Seed Destiny. The model is capable of breaking down into its various forms or combining together into the mobile suit mode. These additional sub-forms are the Core Splendor, Chest Flyer, Leg Flyer and Force Silhouette.

Contrasting coloured armour panels are used to increase the surface detail of this kit.

The Silhouette Flyer and Force Silhouette Pack can be combined together to create the Force Silhouette. This aircraft can be displayed independently of the mobile suit and features a range of articulation for extreme poseability.

The Force Silhouette Pack can be attached onto the mobile suit for use as standard backpack.

The mobile suit also features a core block system. The Core Splendor features an opening cockpit hatch, removable missiles, removable landing gear and a full transformation allowing the core unit to be converted into a block unit which can be stored within the chest section of the mobile suit.

The shoulder, forearms and and waist parts all feature enhanced articulation for a wider range of more expressive poses.

The knee armour features a splitting gimmick which happens as the legs are bent.

The Force Impulse Gundam comes equipped with its full range of weaponry and equipment. This includes:

• Weaponry
  • High-Energy Beam Rifle - When not in use the beam rifle can be stored on the rear skirting armour.
  • Two Varja Beam Sabers - Coming with clear pink beam effect parts, when not in use the beam sabers can be stored on the Silhouette Pack when not in use.
  • Two Anti-Armour Knives - These folding knives feature folding blades which can be folded down and stored in the side skirting armour when not in use.
  • Shield - This shield features an expanding gimmick.
• Equipment
  • Core Splendor - This core unit features an opening cockpit hatch and comes with removable landing, missiles and can be fully transformed into a block unit for use within the chest of the mobile suit.
  • Silhouette Flyer - This small unit can be displayed separately and comes with a piece allowing for it to be combined with the Force Silhouette Pack.
  • Force Silhouette Pack - This backpack features multiple different points of articulation including ball jointed and hinged wings as well as movable thrusters and opening hatches.
