Pre-orders Open for HG Strike Freedom Gundam Type II & Wings of Light Set
Premium Bandai has officially opened pre-orders for a new Gunpla kit based on the theatrical film Mobile Suit Gundam SEED FREEDOM.
The HG 1/144 Strike Freedom Gundam Type II & Wings of Light Effect Set captures the upgraded mobile suit piloted by Kira Yamato during the movie’s climactic battles.
While the base figure utilizes parts from previous releases, it includes new moldings to accurately depict the Type II specifications.
This kit incorporates the SEED Action System internal structure, which is designed to facilitate the dynamic and exaggerated posing characteristic of the series.
A major highlight of this set is the inclusion of the Wings of Light effect parts, which are crafted using a polarized molding process.
This material choice allows the wings to change color depending on the viewing angle, mimicking the iridescent energy discharge seen on screen.
The armament loadout has been expanded to include two Type-35 Modified Railguns in addition to the standard equipment found on the original Strike Freedom.
New joint parts are provided for these weapons, allowing them to be mounted in various configurations without obstructing the waist-mounted rail cannons during deployment.
Standard accessories include two high-energy beam rifles, beam sabers that can be connected, and the Eglége beam shield.
A clear black Action Base 7 is also bundled with the kit to support aerial display options immediately out of the box.
This release targets fans looking to complete their collection with the specific version of the Freedom used in the final conflict before it docked with the Proud Defender.
The HG 1/144 Strike Freedom Gundam Type II & Wings of Light Effect Set is priced at 4,620 yen (approx. $31.00 USD / £24.00 GBP).
Pre-orders began on the Premium Bandai online store on Thursday, January 8, 2026, and shipping is scheduled for March 2026.
