Experience the beginning of Mobile Suit Gundam 00 with the RG GN-001 Gundam Exia 1/144, Bandai Spirits’ stunning Real Grade recreation of Setsuna F. Seiei’s iconic close-combat mobile suit. Combining intricate mechanical detail, an advanced internal frame and exceptional articulation, the RG Exia faithfully captures the sleek design and dynamic fighting style that made it one of the most popular Gundams in the franchise.

As part of the acclaimed Real Grade (RG) line, the Exia delivers Master Grade-inspired engineering in a compact 1/144 scale, making it a rewarding build for experienced Gunpla builders and an impressive centrepiece for any Gundam 00 collection.

The First Gundam Meister

The GN-001 Gundam Exia is one of the four third-generation Gundams deployed by the private armed organisation Celestial Being. Piloted by Setsuna F. Seiei, Exia specialises in close-quarters combat, relying on its incredible mobility, GN Drive technology and an extensive collection of swords to overpower its enemies.

Powered by the revolutionary GN Drive, Exia generates virtually unlimited GN Particles, providing exceptional speed, beam weapon capability and the ability to perform the famous Trans-Am System activation.

The RG Exia showcases Bandai’s early Real Grade innovation with the Advanced MS Joint 7 inner frame, delivering impressive detail and articulation while maintaining a compact 1/144 scale.

Highlights include:

Advanced MS Joint internal frame
Detailed GN Drive construction
Layered armour panels
Flexible torso articulation
Excellent mechanical detail
Realistic panel separation

The finished model captures the sharp, athletic proportions of Exia while exposing mechanical details throughout the body.
