The Bandai HGCE #198 ZGMF-X56S/α Force Impulse Gundam is a 1/144 scale snap-fit model kit from Mobile Suit Gundam SEED Destiny, part of the HGCE Revive lineup. This updated version of the classic Force Impulse features fully functional docking and splitting engineering, allowing the mobile suit to separate into Chest Flyer and Leg Flyer components along with the Core Splendor fighter. Recommended for beginner to intermediate builders, this HG kit snaps together without glue or painting required. The Force Impulse Gundam is piloted by Shinn Asuka and later Lunamaria Hawke, serving as ZAFT's versatile multi-mode mobile suit equipped with the α Force Silhouette flight pack.

Key Features

• Core Splendor Separation System: The kit separates into Chest Flyer, Leg Flyer, and Core Splendor components, recreating the in-show docking and deployment gimmick.
• Double-Jointed Articulation: Both elbows and knees feature double joints, with a 360-degree waist rotation and see-saw hip joint for dynamic posing.
• Expanding Shield: The shield converts between default and expanded states via parts swapping.
• α Force Silhouette Pack: Wings modeled after real-world aircraft fold in a unique manner and are compatible with other HGCE Impulse-based kits.
• Versatile Beam Rifle: The foregrip flips left or right, and the rifle can mount onto the rear waist for storage.
• KPS Shoulder Joints: One of the first HG kits to feature KPS material ball-and-socket shoulder joints for improved durability and range of motion.
• Action Base Compatible: Includes a 3mm peg hole for Action Base mounting; Chest Flyer, Leg Flyer, Core Splendor, and Silhouette Flyer each have their own mount points.
