Bandai HG BUNYIP BOOMERANG – Detailed Figure Model Kit Description
The Bandai HG BUNYIP BOOMERANG kit is a high-quality plastic model kit designed for self-assembly, perfect for fans of giant robots and the Gundam universe. This detailed kit from Bandai allows for the accurate recreation of the character in the High Grade (HG) line.
High Grade (HG) Series Characteristics
The High Grade (HG) series, produced by Bandai, is highly regarded in the modeling world for its quality and innovation. HG models feature an increased range of motion and improved articulation compared to most No-Grade kits, allowing for the creation of dynamic poses. It should be noted that 1/100 scale models from certain series, such as Mobile Suit Gundam SEED, Mobile Suit Gundam SEED Destiny, Mobile Suit Gundam 00, or Mobile Suit Gundam IRON-BLOODED ORPHANS, do not carry an official HG designation on their packaging, but are widely recognized as comparable in terms of build quality and functionality to the High Grade series.
Beyond the Gundam universe, the HG designation has also been used in other popular model series related to anime and science fiction, including:
Neon Genesis Evangelion
Aura Battler Dunbine
Pacific Rim: Uprising
Full Metal Panic!
Dynamic Characters
Nekketsu Saikyō Go-Saurer
Sakura Wars
Mashin Hero Wataru
Amaim Warrior at the Borderline

Gundam Universe – Background for the Model
The Bandai HG BUNYIP BOOMERANG model originates from the rich and expansive Gundam universe. It is an iconic Japanese media franchise, launched in 1979 by Sunrise with the animation "Mobile Suit Gundam". The main theme of the series revolves around science fiction stories set in the future, where powerful combat robots, known as Mobile Suits, play a crucial role. Gundam has gained global popularity, becoming one of the most influential representatives of the mecha genre in Japanese and global pop culture.
Assembly and Finishing Process
Assembling the Bandai HG BUNYIP BOOMERANG model is intuitive and enjoyable. The plastic parts should be carefully cut from the sprues, then fitted and assembled according to the included instruction manual. The model's construction utilizes a snap-fit system, meaning that assembly does not require glue. However, for increased durability and connection security, the use of a small amount of plastic cement is recommended.
All model parts are molded in colored plastic, eliminating the need for painting. However, the model can optionally be painted with model paints to give it a personalized look or to further highlight details. No dedicated paint colors are included in the kit, as the parts are already pre-colored. After assembly and optional painting, apply the included decals, following the markings in the instruction manual or reference images.
