BAN5068868 - Bandai HG 1/144 Gaia's/Ortega's Rick Dom (GQuuuuuuX)

The Bandai HG 1/144 Gaia’s / Ortega’s Rick Dom (GQuuuuuuX) (5068868) is a High Grade model kit from Mobile Suit Gundam GQuuuuuuX, featuring a heavily reimagined version of the classic Zeon Rick Dom piloted by Gaia and Ortega. This updated design keeps the iconic bulky Dom silhouette but adds modern engineering, new gimmicks, and a distinctive multi-leg “high mobility” configuration.

This HG kit uses Bandai’s snap-fit assembly system, allowing for an easy build with no glue or paint required. The parts are molded in color-separated plastic, accurately capturing the dark purple armor, heavy mechanical structure, and updated detailing straight out of the box. The result is a bold, aggressive-looking mobile suit with strong visual presence.

A major highlight of this version is its high mobility transformation mode, which can be achieved without part swapping. The additional rear leg unit acts as both a stabilizer and booster system, giving the Rick Dom a unique expanded silhouette and enhanced movement capability in combat scenarios.

It is also equipped with heavy firepower weapons including a giant bazooka with movable grip and an electromagnetic harpoon system using lead wire effects, allowing for dynamic posing and dramatic battlefield displays.

Articulation has been modernized for HG standards, enabling wide range motion in the torso, legs, and backpack system so it can perform both grounded and high-mobility action poses. The design blends the classic Dom massiveness with updated mechanical joints and sleek Gundam GQuuuuuuX styling.

The Bandai HG Gaia’s / Ortega’s Rick Dom is a must-have for fans of Zeon mobile suits, especially those who enjoy heavy units with unique gimmicks, experimental redesigns, and strong display impact. It stands out as one of the most distinctive Rick Dom variations thanks to its bold silhouette and “third-leg” mobility system.

Overall, this kit is perfect for collectors who enjoy powerful, unconventional Zeon designs with modern HG engineering and high customization potential.
