Bring Aila Jyrkiäinen’s striking Qubeley Papillon to your Gunpla collection with the HGBF 1/144 NMX-004 Qubeley Papillon.
From Gundam Build Fighters comes the NMX-004 Qubeley Papillon, a heavily customised Gunpla based on the iconic Qubeley design. With its dramatic purple colour scheme, enormous shoulder binders and distinctive weaponry, the Qubeley Papillon is one of the most immediately recognisable rival machines from the series.
Bandai originally released the HGBF kit on 15 February 2014.
Qubeley Papillon
Built for Aila Jyrkiäinen, the Qubeley Papillon takes the already unusual silhouette of the original Qubeley and pushes it in a darker, more aggressive direction.
The huge curved shoulder binders remain central to the design, while the purple and dark-toned colour scheme gives the Papillon an identity completely separate from the original white Qubeley.
It’s elegant.
It’s intimidating.
And it’s very difficult to mistake for anything else on the shelf.
Distinctive Shoulder Binders
Bandai specifically recreated the Qubeley Papillon’s characteristic large shoulder binders, giving the finished 1/144 model the broad, flowing silhouette seen in Gundam Build Fighters.
These oversized binders are a major part of what makes any Qubeley design stand out, and on the Papillon they contribute heavily to its imposing appearance.
Funnel Bit Equipment
The Qubeley Papillon comes with its distinctive Funnel Bit equipment, continuing the remote-weapon heritage associated with the original Qubeley while adapting it to the world of Gunpla Battle.
Bandai lists the Funnel Bits among the kit’s included weaponry, giving the completed model another defining feature from its anime appearance.
A Standout Gundam Build Fighters Kit
The Qubeley Papillon is a great addition for anyone building a Gundam Build Fighters collection.
Its combination of classic Universal Century inspiration and Build Fighters customisation perfectly represents one of the biggest attractions of the series – taking familiar Gunpla designs and transforming them into something new.
It also makes an excellent companion to kits such as Build Strike Gundam, Star Build Strike Gundam, Gundam X Maoh and Wing Gundam Fenice.
Great for Customisation
The unusual armour shapes and large surface areas of the Qubeley Papillon also provide plenty of opportunities for additional modelling work.
Panel lining, detail painting, metallic accents and custom colour schemes can all be used to push the finished model further.
Or simply build it straight from the box and enjoy that unmistakable purple Papillon colour scheme.
