The Bandai 30MM #18 bEXM-15 Portanova (Space Type) (Gray) is a 1/144 scale snap-fit plastic model kit from the 30 Minutes Missions line. This space-combat variant of the Portanova EXAMAC features specialized space leg units, a dedicated space backpack, and increased expandability through new waist parts that allow for a quadrupedal configuration when combined with a second kit. Suitable for beginner to intermediate builders, the kit snaps together without glue and is color-molded in gray and light gray tones. The Portanova is part of Bandai's original 30 Minutes Missions IP, featuring customizable mecha designed for mix-and-match building across the entire 30MM product line.
Key Features
-
Space Type Configuration: Includes dedicated space leg units, forearm armors, and a space backpack for a distinct space-combat silhouette that differs from the standard Portanova.
-
Quadrupedal Build Option: New waist parts enable a quadrupedal mecha configuration when combined with the space leg units from a second copy of the kit.
-
Arm Unit Weapons: Comes with an arm unit base that can be built as either a long rifle (rifle core, handle, and barrel) or a large claw with jointed fingers - offering two distinct weapon loadouts.
-
3mm Hardpoint System: Multiple 3mm hardpoints across the body allow mounting of compatible 30MM Option Armor, weapon sets, and other expansion accessories.
-
Snap-Fit Assembly: No glue required for construction. Color-molded plastic minimizes the need for painting right out of the box.
-
Cross-Compatibility: Fully compatible with other 30 Minutes Missions kits, option armor sets, and weapon packs for nearly limitless customization.
-
Dual Build Paths: Can be assembled as either the Space Type variant or the standard Portanova configuration using the included parts.
