Massive New Gunpla Kit of Gundam Hathaway’s Alyzeus Unveiled by Bandai
Pre-orders have officially begun for a new High Grade (HG) model kit from Bandai Spirits, introducing a massive original mobile suit from the film Mobile Suit Gundam Hathaway: The Sorcery of Nymph Circe.
The “HG 1/144 Alyzeus” recreates the “TX-ff104 Alyzeus,” a movie-original design that boasts an impressive size of approximately 250 mm in height.
This kit captures the unit’s ability to transform, allowing builders to reproduce both its standard Mobile Suit form and its high-speed Flight Form.
A defining feature of this release is its armor purge gimmick, where the external armor of the Alyzeus separates to reveal a “Mass Production Type Nu Gundam” concealed within.
This marks the first time the Mass Production Type Nu Gundam has been released as a Gunpla kit, utilizing a completely new sculpt to bring the design to life.
The internal unit features sub-arms hidden within the front skirts that can deploy beam sabers, adding to its close-combat capabilities.
When fully equipped, the remaining armor on the left shoulder and the connection of the shelf nozzles create a silhouette designed to evoke the funnels of the legendary Nu Gundam.
The “HG 1/144 Alyzeus” is priced at 13,200 JPY (approx. $90 USD / £70 GBP) and it is set for release in Japan in April 2026.
It will be available via major hobby retailers such as HobbyLink Japan, from February 3, 2026.
Bandai has also released a promotional video for the kit which can be viewed below:
