The huge mobile suit featured in Hathaway's Flash, the Penelope was recreated with an updated modern design styling supervised by Hajime Katoki.

Standing over 9 inches tall when completed, the Penelope surpasses the height of most MG models despite being only 1/144 scale, and features a dense substructure layered by many parts. The Penelope can separate from its flight unit to its original Oddyseus Gundam base form and features beam rifle, shield, and beam sabers.

The Definition of Extra

This is a well-refined distillation of a crazy-over-the-top mobile suit and for a High Grade, this kit absolutely delivers. It is HUGE. MG+ levels of taking over the shelf. It looks fantastic, with tons of smooth surfaces and fewer detailed segments. The build truly felt like a High Grade experience with lots of polycap bits and large un-detailed splashes of plastic. But it was cooler than the average build because it was so bulky and space-consuming. I cannot lie and say it was a keeper for me because it took up more space than was worth looking at to me. Fans of the Gundam Hathaway series will be stoked, the average builder/collector will be underwhelmed.

a very nice large boi with few flaws

its a really good hg i absolutely recommend this product, it also looks AMAZING fully panel lined. Its just there is one major flaw with it. (imo) the waist joint is a bit TOO lose, and it likes to sorta flop around a bit. but that can be fixed with a bit of work. over all, a very nice large boi. def. worth it if you can see past that waist.

Great Kit!!

I would say that it’s about the right price for all the plastic you get, not that many accessories but I feel the fixed flight unit is the main accessory. I have built it and it’s really heavy which is why it’s awesome they included the base stand. It’s a little heavy on the Gundam so I will most likely keep the flight unit on the base stand and the Odysseus Gundam separate. Forgive the wipes in the photo, it’s for my son.
