RE/100 1/100 Vigna-Ghina — Neo Zeon's Elegant Funnel MS

The RE/100 Vigna-Ghina is a rare treat — a 1/100 kit of a mobile suit that never received the MG treatment. The magenta-white color scheme is striking, the funnel system works well, and the overall engineering is solid for the RE/100 format.

RE/100 Vigna-Ghina: Hathaway's Hidden Gem

The RE/100 Vigna-Ghina (2017) is one of the more obscure but excellent RE/100 releases. The Vigna-Ghina is a Neo Zeon mobile suit from the manga 'Mobile Suit Gundam: Hathaway's Flash' — the elegant, feminine-aesthetic MS piloted by Lane Aim.

For UC manga fans and RE/100 collectors, this kit is essential. There's no HG or MG Vigna-Ghina; the RE/100 is the only 1/100 representation available.

The Aesthetic

Magenta body with white accent panels and gold trim. The color scheme is distinctive — most UC mobile suits use red, white, or military colors. The Vigna-Ghina's magenta and white reads as 'noble feminine warrior.'

The body proportions emphasize curves and elegance over typical military boxiness. The shoulder armor flares dramatically. The chest plate is sculpted with refined lines.

The Funnel System

The Vigna-Ghina deploys via Funnel Bits (similar to the Qubeley). The RE/100 includes 8 funnels mounted on the rear backpack with detachable mounts for deployment-pose display.

Effect parts aren't included; builders use clear support rods or display in stationary 'deployed' configuration.

The Build

About 8-12 hours for a careful first build. RE/100 complexity — fewer parts than MG but more than HGUC.

Display Considerations

The Vigna-Ghina's distinctive color scheme works well as a 'unique piece' on a UC shelf. Its magenta-and-white stands out among the typical red-and-gray Neo Zeon kits.

Pair with the RE/100 Nightingale for a complete 'Beltorchika's Children-era Char's Counterattack' Neo Zeon display, or with the RE/100 Dijeh for the broader Z-era Federation/Zeon counterpoint.
