Continue the legacy of the Asuno family with the Gundam AGE-3 Normal HG 1/144, Bandai Spirits’ High Grade recreation of the third-generation Gundam from Mobile Suit Gundam AGE. Piloted by Kio Asuno, the AGE-3 Normal introduces an innovative transformation system, a powerful new weapons platform and a versatile design that serves as the foundation for the Fortress and Orbital Wear variants.
Combining excellent articulation, simple assembly and impressive play features, the HG AGE-3 Normal remains one of the standout kits in the High Grade AGE line and is an ideal choice for both new builders and experienced Gunpla fans.
Kio Asuno’s Powerful New Gundam
The AGE-3 Normal is the successor to the AGE-2 Normal, developed by Flit Asuno using the evolving AGE System to combat the growing Vagan threat. Unlike previous AGE units, the AGE-3 introduces the innovative Core Block System, allowing the mobile suit to separate into the Core Fighter and G-Cepter, providing increased flexibility and forming the basis for its interchangeable Wear System.
Designed for the next generation of pilots, the AGE-3 combines overwhelming firepower with excellent mobility, making it one of the most versatile mobile suits in the Advanced Generation timeline.
Core Block Transformation System
One of the defining features of the HG AGE-3 Normal is its transformation capability.
The kit recreates the mobile suit’s unique design by allowing builders to display:
- Gundam AGE-3 Normal
- Core Fighter
- G-Cepter support unit
Using included interchangeable parts, Bandai faithfully reproduces the transformation and docking sequence while maintaining the stability and proportions of the completed model.
Signature SigMaxiss Rifle
The AGE-3 Normal comes equipped with its powerful SigMaxiss Rifle, a massive beam weapon derived from the Diva’s Photon Blaster Cannon.
Included accessories include:
- SigMaxiss Rifle
- Two Beam Sabers
- Core Fighter
- G-Cepter cockpit parts
- Interchangeable hands
- Display stand
The oversized SigMaxiss Rifle can be mounted on the rear of the mobile suit when not in use, while the Beam Sabers are stored within the forearm shields for quick deployment during close-range combat.
Excellent High Grade Articulation
Despite its transformation gimmick, the HG AGE-3 Normal offers excellent poseability.
Features include:
- Ball-jointed head
- Wide shoulder movement
- Flexible elbows and knees
- Articulated hips
- Stable ankle joints
- Dynamic weapon handling
These features make it easy to recreate aerial combat scenes, Beam Saber attacks and powerful SigMaxiss Rifle firing poses.
Build the Foundation for Future AGE Forms
The AGE-3 Normal serves as the base configuration for the AGE-3’s interchangeable Wear System.
Fans of the series can expand their collection with:
- AGE-3 Fortress
- AGE-3 Orbital
Together they demonstrate the adaptability of the AGE System and the evolution of the Gundam throughout Kio Asuno’s battles.
Outstanding Detail Straight from the Box
Bandai’s High Grade engineering provides excellent colour separation and crisp surface detail without requiring paint.
The kit is perfect for additional finishing techniques such as:
- Panel lining
- Water-slide decals
- Metallic detailing
- Matte or gloss top coats
- Airbrushed shading
- Battle display dioramas
The clean armour design makes the AGE-3 an excellent canvas for customisation while remaining highly accurate straight from the runners.
Perfect for Gundam AGE Collectors
The HG Gundam AGE-3 Normal pairs perfectly with other kits from the Mobile Suit Gundam AGE series, including:
- HG Gundam AGE-1 Normal
- HG Gundam AGE-2 Normal
- HG Gundam AGE-3 Fortress
- HG Gundam AGE-3 Orbital
- HG Gundam AGE-FX
- HG Legilis
Together they showcase the evolution of the AGE Project and the three generations of the Asuno family.
