The impressive HG 1/144 Rising Freedom Gundam in its special edition [Recirculation Color/Neon Yellow].
Bandai Spirits has unveiled a special edition of its acclaimed High Grade (HG) line: the HG 1/144 Rising Freedom Gundam [Recirculation Color/Neon Yellow]. This 1/144 scale model, directly from the anticipated movie Mobile Suit Gundam SEED FREEDOM, is distinguished by a unique color palette that fuses deep black, derived from recycled plastics, with vibrant neon yellow accents.
This innovative initiative, named "Eco-Pla," aims to highlight the commitment to using reused materials in the manufacturing of Gunpla models. The resulting aesthetic is not only visually striking but also aspires to symbolize a "circular future" and greater sustainability in the modeling industry.

This system is specially designed to allow a wide range of dynamic and realistic poses, capturing the essence of the action scenes from Mobile Suit Gundam SEED FREEDOM. Additionally, the HG Rising Freedom Gundam has the ability to transform into its MA (Mobile Armor) mode by swapping some parts, adding versatility and display value to the kit.
