Completed this kit quite a long time ago, but never took the time to take picture of it until now. Hi-Nu or RX-93-n-2 Hi-n Gundam is one of my favourite gundam, been waiting for Bandai to make a MG kit out of it ever since I saw photos of a resin version of this gundam. So I was pretty ecstatic when Bandai announce they will be releasing this kit in February and I quickly ordered it.
Hi-Nu only appeared in the novel “Beltorchika’s Children” and not in the anime Char’s Counterattack. Hi-Nu is the completed version of the prototype Nu Gundam that appeared in Char’s Counterattack. As with it’s prototype, it comes equip with a hyper bazooka, a beam rifle, 3 beam saber as well as the funnel systems.
There’s probably more than enough review of this kit out there, so I won’t be doing one. Just enjoy the pictures ^^.

Nice poses and pics. I’m loving the last pic
Great pics. Some really great poses too. Bring on the cat boys :3
Damn! I have to try some Gunpla building one day xD
That’s what your pictures have just reminded me hehe. This model looks awesome. You gave him some great poses, nice job!
Really nice photo’s. They look like pre-release photo’s. Paint job is ace, good work! I wish i was that good.
Hope they’ll release this into HGUC. Couldn’t afford a storage space for MGs. Already crowded with magazines and 1/6 figures.
Oh god, it’s so sexy. I can’t wait for mine^^
Great build and nice photos!
those are wicked pictures! Excellent poses! w00 now I want one real bad… but dang, I still haven’t done any work on my Armored Core yet!
Awesomeness. It almost makes me want to work on GunPla. Almost.
I really need to get my hands on this kit ^^ but the wallet won’t allow it
@shino~thanks
@aka_ugly~thanks, cat boys is up hehe
@lu-k~thanks, you should coz it’s fun ^^ and this model in very well made as well
@Cam - Otaku Blue~thanks
@hangmen~it’ll probably lose some detail as a HGUC though
@phamalous~thanks, can’t wait to see yours ^^
@radiant~better start on your AC so that you can get this baby after that ^^
@Zeroblade~thanks, just almost, hmm need stronger poison ^^
@Belela-san~i am not sure how much it’s price at your area but i got it for a good price, around 55USD more or less
Don’t really mind the loss of details. HGUC’s are my staple diet.
55 USD ??????????? Thats darn cheap. It’s impossible for me to find it here costing lesser than 70€ around 11,400 yen because the importation taxes are very high. Anyway 70€ is a good price here since if I buy it threw HLJ I would pay around 75€ with importation taxes included
Ah, nice model you got! Great poses as well~
I was hopeing the Hi-Nu was a lil more like the manga version, although the “athletic” look of the MG kit is also nice. I havn’t got arounf to buying this kit since well…I got too many to do at the moment -_-;
Hey valho one question, do you paint your kits? Cause the quality is super, can’t see any flaws
@hangmen~well HGUC does save some space
@Belela-san~yup cheap ^^, nope I don’t paint my kit, but i try to make the cuts clean and a little bit of sanding here and there.
@Aya~thanks, i am not sure how the manga version looks like though hehe
