The Gundam Pharact, which appears in Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch of Mercury, has finally been released as a long-awaited HG kit.
The machine piloted by Elan Ceres is a highly maneuverable Gundam-type MS developed by Pale Technologies.
Released in 2022, this kit has attracted the attention of many Gunpla fans with its unique design and excellent mobility.
Appearance and color coding
Gundam Pharact features a slender and unique silhouette that sets it apart from conventional MS.
The dark color scheme, mainly blue-gray, gives a cool impression.
The color separation is excellent, with most parts reproduced in their molded colors, and the use of stickers is kept to a minimum.
Range of motion
This kit has a very wide range of motion, allowing you to spread your limbs wide and lift your head.
The joints are made of soft plastic (KPS) for smooth movement.
What’s particularly noteworthy is that the sleek design around the waist allows you to look straight to the side.
Distinctive gimmick
Back Booster
The back booster mounted on the backpack has left and right parts connected by an arm, allowing it to move.
The GUND bit “Koraki” is stored inside and can be easily removed.
Beakfoot
The beakfoot at the tip of the foot can change angle significantly and has excellent ground contact.
Armament
Gundam Pharact comes with the following armaments:
- Beam Arquebus
- Beam sabers (stored in the left and right forearms)
- Beam cannon on the sole of the foot
Assembly and Finishing
This kit is designed so that the seams are barely noticeable, so even if you just pop it together you can expect a satisfying finish.
There are only a few areas that need painting, making this a kit that even beginners can easily enjoy.
summary
The HG 1/144 Gundam Pharact is an attractive kit with excellent color separation, high mobility, and a unique design.
Ease of assembly has also been taken into consideration, such as by designing the joints to be inconspicuous and using minimal seals.
The only drawback is that you need a separately sold display base to recreate the deployed state of the Koraki, but even taking that into account it is still a very attractive kit.
