Series Assembly Guide FAQ

Bandai SDW HEROES Cleopatra Qubeley Dark Mask Ver.

A mask-wearing Qubeley with Egyptian regalia

Cleopatra Qubeley Dark Mask Ver. is a priestess character from SD Gundam World Heroes, drawn from the ancient Egyptian queen Cleopatra VII and the Qubeley from Zeta Gundam and Gundam ZZ. This version shows her taken over by the Dark Mask, in dark blue, gold and clear purple. Bandai released the kit in December 2021, and the Dark Mask is a removable accessory with its own stand.

Build difficulty

Skill Level 1. Bandai rates the kit for ages 8 and up and no glue is needed. It is a snap-fit kit on the female-type SDW Heroes frame that first appeared in the SD Sangoku Soketsuden line. The catch is the colour: reviewers agree the stickers cannot cover everything, and Bandai's photos show a painted sample, so the build is easy but matching the photos takes some paint.

Technical highlights

  • Removable Dark Mask shaped like a cobra, so she can be shown masked or with her face bare.
  • The rear skirt, which stands in for the Qubeley's funnel container, flips up. The mask and its effect arm attach to 3 mm holes underneath, so the mask can float behind her.
  • A dedicated stand holds the mask support and can also display the mask on its own.
  • A joint part lets the mask fit other SDW Heroes and SD Sangoku Soketsuden kits, except ones with large head or chest protrusions.
  • Grace's Heart staff, with clear purple and gold parts, can be held in both hands.

What makes this kit special

  • The Dark Mask gimmick: mask, effect arm, stand and a joint to put the mask on other kits all come in the box.
  • Clear purple detail: clear purple parts on the head, skirt and staff, and the kit is moulded in black, dark blue, gold and clear purple.
  • Slim build: one reviewer found its range of movement wider than other heroes in the line, and the other found it much like other female-type kits in the series.

What's in the box

  • Runners moulded in black, dark blue, gold and clear purple
  • Dark Mask (one)
  • Mask effect part and mask stand
  • Joint for fitting the mask to other kits
  • Grace's Heart staff
  • Foil sticker sheet
  • Instruction manual

Not included: more than one Dark Mask, and a display stand for the figure itself (the box stand supports the mask).

Compatible accessories

There are 3 mm holes in the foot soles and under the skirt container for standard display stands, sold separately. The included joint lets the Dark Mask go onto other SDW Heroes or SD Sangoku Soketsuden kits, as one reviewer demonstrated on Zhuge Liang Freedom and Nobunaga Epyon.

What to watch for

Drawing on two Japanese builder reviews. English-language coverage of this kit is thin, so treat the points below as reviewer notes rather than confirmed patterns:

  • Official photography shows a painted sample. Out of the box the kit is moulded in black, dark blue, gold and clear purple, with foil stickers, and both Japanese reviewers say the stickers leave a lot of detail uncoloured, especially on the back, hips and heels.
  • The back has no stickers at all, and the side armour and chain moulding need paint beyond what the stickers cover, so gold paint is needed there if you want it matched to the photos.
  • One reviewer found the mask support loosens if you raise and lower the skirt container many times, so the mask can flop over unless you adjust it. The included stand can hold the support up.
  • One reviewer notes a piece of the helmet extends downward and tends to interfere with neck rotation, and that the elbows are fixed so the staff angle is somewhat limited.
  • The Dark Mask joint will not fit every kit; the instruction manual says some shapes cannot take it.

Both Japanese reviewers still liked the Dark Mask gimmick.

Build notes

No glue is needed. Nippers and a hobby knife will give a cleaner finish. The kit includes only red eyes for the masked state.

Assembly Guide

SKILL LEVEL REQUIRED
Skill Level.1. Most adults & children can assemble Skill Level 1 kits with little to no difficulty. Very basic hobby tools are recommended including a pair of nippers, a hobby knife, but are not essential. No Glue is needed for these kits. Kits are all snap together build and most parts can be removed by twisting and pushing without the need to snip with nippers.
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 is the Cleopatra Qubeley Dark Mask Ver.?

A priestess character from SD Gundam World Heroes, based on Cleopatra VII and the Qubeley from Zeta Gundam and Gundam ZZ, shown under the influence of the Dark Mask. Bandai released the kit in December 2021.

What's included in the box?

The Dark Mask, a mask effect arm, a mask stand, a joint for fitting the mask to other kits, the Grace's Heart staff, a foil sticker sheet and the instruction manual. Only one mask is included.

Can the Dark Mask go on other kits?

Yes. The included joint lets it fit many SDW Heroes and SD Sangoku Soketsuden kits, though one reviewer notes kits with large head or chest protrusions will not take it.

Does it need paint?

No glue or paint is required, but Japanese reviewers found the stickers leave much of the back, hips and heels uncoloured, so painting helps a lot to match the official photos, which show a painted sample.

Does it come with a stand?

The box includes a stand that supports the Dark Mask. It does not include a display stand for the figure itself, but the foot soles and skirt container have 3 mm holes for standard stands.

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!
