The MS-05S Zaku I Custom is a Limited Production Mobile Suit used by Char Aznable to replace his MS-05 Zaku I.

Char’s MS-05S Zaku I Custom also features updated armor components designed for the MS-06C Zaku II, which would enter mass production shortly after. Char Aznable used the MS-05S Zaku I Custom in the early stages of the One Year War alongside The Principality of Zeon’s Lunar Attack Force, helping to lay the groundwork for the successful completion of Operation British.

The HG Zaku I (Char Aznable Custom) features double-jointed limbs and swiveling thighs, providing a wide range of motion to create dynamic poses. This model includes all the markings necessary to recreate the Mobile Suit’s appearance during the One Week Battle.

This weapon comes attached to a small ammo container that builders can connect to the Mobile Suit’s backpack.

Tips and Tricks –

By implementing the technique of Top Coating, you can do a great deal to help preserve the longevity of your models. This process will protect the original plastic of your model kit and prepare it for any additional modeling techniques to follow.

You can drastically improve your results by making the details pop on the HG The Origin #13 Char Aznable MS-05S Zaku I Custom with Panel Lining. The simplest solution for this is Gundam Markers or Tamiya Panel Line Fluid. If you’re up to a challenge making panel wash is always a great option too! It is always recommended to Topcoat with clear gloss beforehand, as some of the products commonly used for Panel Lining will degrade the untreated plastics over time.

Another way to keep adding detail is by applying Stickers/Marking DecalsTop Coating before the application will help decals stick to the surface much better. Using Top Coat after application will help hide the seams on traditional sticker decals as well as waterslides. This additional step will also keep them from peeling over time. Using Decals is a great way to add an even greater level of detail to your scale models.
