The Bandai HGUC #060 1/144 PMX-001 Palace Athene is a High Grade Universal Century model kit from the Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam series. Designed by Mamoru Nagano, the Palace Athene is a Jupitris prototype heavy attack mobile suit built by Paptimus Scirocco and primarily piloted by Reccoa Londe. This snap-fit kit is suitable for beginner to intermediate builders, requiring no glue or paint for a complete color-accurate build. The Palace Athene was the first kit in the HGUC line to feature this distinctive mobile suit in its full equipment configuration.

Key Features

• Full Equipment Loadout: Includes the complete arsenal of the Palace Athene as seen in the anime, with twin beam gun, grenade launcher, shield, movable shields, large missiles, and beam sabers.
• Transformable Foot Claws: Each foot can convert into claws by swinging the heel forward and pivoting the toe downward, replicating the mobile suit's signature gimmick.
• Movable Backpack Shields: The two backpack-mounted shields can pivot in multiple directions and serve as mounting points for the eight large missiles.
• Flexible Power Pipes: Soft synthetic rubber material is used for the power pipes, ensuring they do not restrict joint articulation.
• Slide-Mount Weapon System: The twin beam gun and shield attach via added arm joints and sliding mount parts rather than rib slots, improving realism.
• Color-Molded Snap-Fit Assembly: Molded in accurate colors with polycap joints for easy construction and posing. Foil stickers included for additional detail.
• Action Base Compatible: Waist features a removable slot cover for mounting on Action Base display stands (sold separately).
