HG 1/144 Alyzeus [Kit Guide] — Gundam Hathaway's Four-Form Giant

The HG 1/144 Alyzeus is one of the most unusual kits Bandai has put into the High Grade line: a gigantic mobile suit from the Mobile Suit Gundam Hathaway universe that reconfigures into four distinct forms. Released in April 2026 as an all-new mold, it’s a centerpiece build in every sense — and it’s in stock at our Vancouver warehouse right now.

What Is the Alyzeus?

In the story, the Alyzeus was hastily developed for Lane Aim as a high-speed flight trainer — a stopgap until the Penelope was formally deployed. Its core is a modified RX-94 Mass Production Type ν Gundam, wrapped in exterior parts repurposed from a prototype built during the Penelope’s development. Its signature feature: twenty Shelf Nozzles distributed across the body, a plasma-jet propulsion system that pushed its flight speed into Penelope territory.

The Kit: Four Forms From One Box

The HG kit reproduces the unit’s reconfiguration gimmick with swap parts: four distinct forms from a single build, from grounded mobile-suit mode to the full high-speed flight layout. This is a fully new mold — not a recolor or a parts-swap of an existing HG — and the part count and finished footprint are far beyond a standard 1/144. Treat it as a project kit: the payoff is one of the most imposing HG silhouettes in the Hathaway lineup.

Who Is This Kit For?

Builders who want something structurally different from another lead Gundam. If the Xi and Penelope drew you into the Hathaway lineup, the Alyzeus is the deep cut that completes the flight-form family — and its pale, low-saturation color scheme takes panel lining and weathering beautifully. First HG ever? Start with something smaller (see our Best HG Gundam Kits guide); this one rewards a builder who already has a few kits behind them.

Verdict

A bold, genuinely novel HG that turns an obscure Hathaway unit into one of the line’s most distinctive builds. Four forms, twenty Shelf Nozzles, all-new tooling — if you want a conversation piece, this is it.
