Series Assembly Guide FAQ

Bandai 1/144 HGBD Gundam 00 Diver Ace

Riku's HG Build Divers ace, four blades and a full GN loadout

The Gundam 00 Diver Ace is Riku's mobile suit from Gundam Build Divers, built around the silhouette of the original 00 Gundam but reworked as an original Diver unit for the GBN metaverse. If you grew up on the twin-drive Celestial Being suits and want that same GN-particle look in a High Grade that snaps together in an afternoon, this is the one.

Build difficulty

This is a standard High Grade build: snap-fit construction, no cement and no paint required straight off the runners. Expect a build in the one to two hour range depending on how careful you are with the foil stickers. It's a fair kit for a first HG or a relaxing build for anyone who wants a straightforward evening project.

Technical highlights

The kit is moulded in its finished colours: white body, navy blue armour, gold face vents and red foot accents, with the GN particle weapon tips moulded in translucent green plastic rather than painted on. Two bonus runners in clear green and clear red are included, giving spare parts that can be swapped in as replacement head parts. Articulation is standard HG Build Divers spec, enough to hold both a single-blade and a four-blade stance without the joints fighting you.

What makes this kit special

  • Four blade weapons in the box: two GN Diver Swords and two Super GN Sword IIs, enough to fan out a full quad-blade display pose.
  • Clear-moulded GN particle tips: the weapon effect parts are translucent green plastic, not paint, so the glow reads straight off the runner.
  • Bonus clear runners: two spare runners in clear green and clear red double as replacement head parts for a different look.
  • 00 Gundam-inspired silhouette: built on the twin-drive 00 Gundam frame, reworked as Riku's own Diver unit for the Build Divers metaverse.
  • Snap-fit, no paint needed: moulded in final colours, so it looks right straight off the runners.

What's in the box

  • GN Diver Sword ×2
  • Super GN Sword II ×2
  • Backpack ×1
  • Joint parts ×1
  • Bonus clear green runner (usable as replacement head parts)
  • Bonus clear red runner (usable as replacement head parts)
  • Foil sticker sheet ×1
  • Instruction manual ×1

Compatible accessories

The 00 Diver Ace is a 1/144 scale kit. No display base is included with the kit. For dynamic four-blade poses, pair the 00 Diver Ace with the Bandai Action Base 2 - Display Stand for 1/144 Scale Gunpla, the standard 1/144 display stand.

What to watch for

Dedicated build reviews for this specific kit are thin on the ground. A general web search plus a targeted Reddit and YouTube sweep turned up only a single low-confidence blog comment (not a full review) noting the kit reuses the clear leg and knee-condenser parts from the base 00 Gundam mould, similar to how the 00 Raiser shares tooling with its parent kit. That's one unverified mention, not a pattern, so it's noted here as background only rather than a confirmed issue.

Build notes

No glue or paint required. A basic tool set (nippers, hobby knife, tweezers) covers everything. Build time runs around one to two hours. Recommended 15 and up.

Assembly Guide

SKILL LEVEL REQUIRED
Skill Level.2 Basic modeling skills are required. Parental supervision may be required for younger children. These kits are generally suitable for beginner builders. A basic set of modeling tools are required including nippers, hobby knife, sanding sticks/paper, file, and tweezers. No glue is needed for the general assembly. Parts will need to be removed by using a pair of nippers and cutting the part away from the runner. Parts may require clean-up where they were removed from the runner.
No Cement Required

Gunpla (plastic model kits) are a snap together assembly and do not need plastic cement to complete. We always recommend having some plastic cement handy as a part of your modeler's tool kit. If you prefer to fix your model in a particular pose then plastic cement will work. Plastic cement is also perfect to use if a joint is loose. Apply plastic cement in a single thin layer and allow it to dry completely before test fitting. Re-apply more cement if necessary.

No Painting Required

Gunpla (plastic model kits) are designed to be built and displayed without the need for painting. Kits are molded in different colours replicating the colours of the actual mecha from the Mecha series. A technique called colour separation, where multiple parts of the model are molded in different colours on the same sprue is also used. Mecha kits often include stickers or water-slide decals that can be applied to the model to enhance its appearance. Some Gunpla kits come with pre-painted parts or parts with pre-applied details, such as metallic or translucent finishes.

Many modelers still choose to paint their kits to customize and add further detail. Painting allows for more creativity and personalization, enabling modelers to achieve unique effects, weathering, and colour schemes that may not be available out of the box. However, the kits are designed to be enjoyable and visually appealing even without painting, making them accessible to a wide range of hobbyists.

Awesome kit, great extras. Only criticism is that the kit comes with a base so you don't need the second one. The kit also doesn't have the ability to take the blue LED bonus so if you don't have another use for it it is wasted. Luckily, I'm a Gundam tragic so will always have uses for extra bases and lighting kits.

Excellent service and fast delivery

I purchased on 6 Jan and my order arrived on 13 Jan. It was very well packed, with both boxes in excellent condition. Cam even provided a small free gift in the box! Overall purchasing experience was smooth and hassle-free. I haven’t had the chance to build the kit yet, but based on the service and care taken with shipping, I would happily purchase from this store if there are other Space Battleship Yamato models available.

Very rare with fair price

If you were one of the lucky ones that were able to travel to Sydney Gundam Base pop-up in 2025 and queued extremely early (like the first 40 or so) on the first day, probably you were able to grab one of these. Otherwise, the only alternative I would know of is traveling to Japan and being uber lucky of having it still being sold at Gundam bases. Otherwise, it's a second-hand market, and prices will go up. That said, the price was fair, I think it would be similar price as using a dropship service from Japan, with the exception that it's much faster and way more guaranteed you will get proper merchandise. So, Mecha Express, Cam, thank you so much for your store!
