Unicorn Gundam: HG vs PG
If you want the Unicorn Gundam and cannot decide between the High Grade (HG) and the Perfect Grade (PG) version, here they are side by side on the things that actually change your decision: size, detail, how hard the build is, price, and who each one is really for.

What changes between HG and PG
These bracket almost the entire hobby. High Grade is the small, affordable, evening-length build. Perfect Grade is the 1/60 flagship: huge, engineering-heavy, frequently LED-lit, and a project you remember finishing. An HG is easy to say yes to on a whim. A PG is a deliberate, expensive commitment that becomes the anchor of a shelf. Choose by how much time, money, and love you want to put into this specific suit.
Get the HG if
you want this suit affordably, want to finish it in an evening or two, or plan to build several kits without breaking the bank. It is the easy, everyday yes.
Get the PG if
this is a grail suit for you and you have the budget, the bench time, and the shelf space for a 1/60 flagship, often with LEDs and articulated fingers, that becomes the anchor of a collection.
We have built and graded both: the HG scored 7.2 and the PG scored 8.7 out of 10. Read the full reviews above for the detail behind the numbers.
