Series Assembly Guide FAQ

Bandai HG 1/144 Char's Zaku (GQ) - GQuuuuuuX Series

Char's red Zaku, from GQuuuuuuX, in HG

Char's Zaku is the MS-06S, the Zaku painted in Char's signature red, and this is its 1/144 High Grade kit from Mobile Suit Gundam GQuuuuuuX. Bandai's listing highlights a newly designed Zaku Bazooka, shoulder blocks that move independently for dynamic action poses, a movable mono-eye and marking stickers to recreate its on-screen look.

It sits alongside the Zaku (GQ) and the rest of the GQuuuuuuX Zeon line, so it is an easy one to add if you are building out that side of the shelf.

Build difficulty

Bandai rates the kit for builders aged 8 and up and it is a snap-fit build, no glue. One Japanese builder describes it as easy to build without glue and stylish once finished, with plenty of movement. You will want nippers to cut the parts from the runners.

Technical highlights

The shoulder blocks move independently, which Bandai points to as the key to dynamic poses, and the mono-eye is movable. The newly sculpted Zaku Bazooka is the headline weapon. Marking stickers are included for details such as the on-screen markings.

What makes this kit special

  • Char's red Zaku: the MS-06S in Char's signature red, from GQuuuuuuX.
  • New Zaku Bazooka: a newly designed Zaku Bazooka is included.
  • Independent shoulder blocks: built for dynamic action poses.
  • Movable mono-eye: the eye moves for expression.
  • Marking stickers: included to recreate the on-screen look.

What's in the box

  • Kit runners (HG 1/144)
  • Weapon set including the new Zaku Bazooka (Bandai's photos also show the Zaku Machine Gun and Heat Hawk)
  • Hand parts
  • Marking stickers

Compatible accessories

No display base is included with the kit. For the leaping and airborne poses in Bandai's photos, pair Char's Zaku with the Bandai Action Base 2, the standard 1/144 display stand. Bandai's photos show the kit on a clear Action Base, sold separately.

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.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's so special about the HG Galluss-J kit?

The HG Galluss-J is designed to be a highly posable and customisable kit. It features a unique arm-punch gimmick, allowing you to recreate its signature attack. It also comes with fingertip machine guns, an energy gun, interchangeable mono-eye, and a deployable missile hatch, offering builders plenty of options for posing and display.

I'm a beginner, is the HG Military Police Zaku a good kit to start with?

Absolutely! HG (High Grade) kits are generally recommended for beginners due to their straightforward assembly and good value. The Military Police Zaku is no exception, offering a satisfying build experience with its unique accessories like the warning lights, baton, and sasumata.

Does the HG Red Gundam transform or have any special features?

While it doesn't transform, the HG Red Gundam is rumored to have connections to the legendary RX-78-2, though the exact details are still shrouded in mystery. What we do know is that this kit features Char's iconic red colour scheme, an Alpha-type psycommu system, and comes equipped with those awesome Bits!  

Are these GQuuuuuuX kits limited edition or will they be readily available?

While the initial release might see high demand, Bandai Spirits generally keeps popular kits in production. However, it's always a good idea to secure your favorite GQuuuuuuX GunPla early to avoid potential stock shortages or long wait times, especially for highly sought-after kits like the Red Gundam.

Are there likely to be more model kits announced?

Yes, infact Bandai has already announced 5 more Gunpla all marked as tentative with no further details available. Interestingly enough each of these have been given a barcode and price.

Amazing Build, my Grandson loved it!

I purchased this kit and one other for my grandsons birthday. He loved building it and found it easy to follow. My order arrived in super fast time and was beautifully packed. It even had some wonderful freebies in the box which was really great. Excellent product and service in every way!

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!
