Bandai Metal Structure Kaitai-Shou-ki MSN-04 Sazabi

Bandai's spectacular new model of the MSN-04 Sazabi from "Mobile Suit Gundam: Char's Counterattack" features overwhelming volume, precise modeling, and composite materials making up over 3,000 parts that can be enjoyed in various forms! Different textures reminiscent of the real thing are a hallmark of this figure; there are armor deployment gimmicks for each part, too, and a mechanism that gradually transforms. There's also a light-emitting gimmick built into the main figure's head camera and cockpit, as well as the base, to produce a feeling of overwhelming size!

The core concept of the METAL STRUCTURE line is the movable armour that can be displayed in various stages of assembly or disassembly. The unique structure of this figure allow you to display the mighty Sazabi in four different forms: its Normal form, the High Mobility form for more efficient cooling during battle, and the Open Hatch form for maintenance and development. It can also be displayed in its parked Full Maintenance Form with much of its inner structure revealed, complete with a maintenance gantry with multiple arms and maintenance crew figures! A pilot figure of Char Aznable is also included, as well as a figure of Nanai Miguel.

The Sazabi is fully armed as well, and would be the pinnacle of any "Gundam" collection. 


This unbelievably faithfully detailed composite material figure is comprised of several thousand parts, evoking the real materials used to make this mighty mobile suit. Opening armour parts and transformation systems are sure to please discriminating collectors. The stand and figure include illumination, enhancing both the sense of size and presence of the display.

Assembly Guide

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.

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.

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.
