  • Any of the weapons can be wielded by the poseable hands.
    • Each palm features a molded tab for increased gripping stability.
  • The forearms' Beam Saber panels can flip out to form Beam Tonfas.
  • The Beam Sabers on the backpack can be optionally removed as handheld weapons.
  • The Beam Magnum's E-Pacs can be swapped.
    • The Beam Magnum's barrel can be slightly pulled forward, and one of the upper E-pacs can be removed to recreate its reloading feature.
  • The Hyper Bazooka can be converted between standby and firing modes.
    • Its ammo pack can be optionally separated from the weapon.
  • The shield can...
    • Only mount onto the left forearm via an adapter.
      • The shield's adapter is multi-jointed, allowing for some poses while mounted onto the forearm.
    • Convert into Destroy Mode.
    • Mount onto the backpack for storage.
  • The Beam Magnum or the Hyper Bazooka can mount onto the backpack via flip-out tabs.
    • Each of their respective ammo packs can also be mounted onto the rear waist armor.
  • Unicorn Gundam can mount onto Action Bases 1 or 4 with an adapter.

Tips & Tricks[]

  • For better results, some or most of the details are needed to be applied & panel-lined with Gundam Markers and/or Mr. Color paints.
  • Top coat (Mr. Hobby recommended) can be used to protect applied stickers/marking decals and if any, painted details.
    • If using matte/flat-finish top coat, it is advisable not to spray on the clear/translucent and the softer parts - can be done by masking or spraying top coat while the said parts are separated. (If one hasn't top-coated the kit yet, converting it into Unicorn Mode may finish the job)
  • Care must be taken while transforming the antenna parts (C18 and C19); slightly excessive force and/or mishandling can potentially break the parts.
  • The Armed Armor DE add-on included with Mobile Suit Gundam Unicorn - Bande Dessinee Vol. 8 can be used for this kit.
  • The Beam Gatling Gun［x2］ set add-on included from the 4th Volume of Gundam Unicorn can be used for this kit.

Variants[]

Reissues of the kit from September 2018 onward will feature a blue-colored Bandai Spirits logo. Later reprints from mid-2022 will also feature an additional Bandai Namco logo.

Notes & Trivia[]

  • Starting from this release, most of the recent released MG Unicorn Gundam variants will be using the improved knee and waist joints.
