HGAC 1/144 Gundam Sandrock Custom EW - Release Info

HGAC 1/144 Gundam Sandrock Custom EW

Release Date: June 2026

Price: 4,180 Yen

The long-awaited HG Gundam Sandrock Custom [Endless Waltz Ver.] has finally been revealed, and Gundam Wing fans are absolutely eating right this year. First shown during the 63rd All Japan Model & Hobby Show, the fan favorite mobile suit from Mobile Suit Gundam Wing: Endless Waltz is officially joining the High Grade lineup just in time for the 30th Anniversary of Mobile Suit Gundam Wing.

Bandai has equipped the kit with an all-new W-series frame that recreates the Endless Waltz design while giving the mobile suit improved articulation for dynamic action poses straight out of the film. The wide shoulder movement allows the Heat Shotels to swing naturally, making dual-wield poses look especially good on display.

One of the biggest highlights is the Anti-Beam Coating Cloak, which uses a newly developed soft material. Unlike older attempts at capes and cloaks on GunPla, this one is designed to move naturally while still allowing the Sandrock Custom to pose without feeling restricted. It gives the kit that dramatic Endless Waltz look fans have wanted for years.

The Heat Shotels also come with clear red-hot effect parts, letting builders recreate the heated blade state seen during combat scenes. Combined with the sharp proportions and upgraded articulation, the HG Sandrock Custom feels like a massive glow-up for one of Gundam Wing’s coolest late-series designs.

In lore, the Sandrock Custom is an upgraded version of the original Gundam Sandrock, fitted with additional verniers to improve mobility and space combat performance. The Glory of the Losers manga version also added extra thrusters to the backpack for even greater maneuverability, and you can definitely feel that high-speed Endless Waltz energy in this release.

Accessories included with the kit are packed nicely too, featuring the full beam-resistant coating cloak set, Heat Shotels, red-hot effect parts, interchangeable hand parts, cape attachment armor parts, and stickers.

Designed with additional verniers for improved space combat mobility, and as seen in the Glory of the Losers manga, it also features enhanced backpack thrusters that boost its thrust capacity. These refinements capture the unit’s progression from battlefield classic to upgraded powerhouse.

In the story, Quatre Raberba Winner’s struggle with the Sandrock Custom became one of the most memorable arcs of Endless Waltz. From being captured and brainwashed by the Perfect Peace People, to dueling against his own allies Duo Maxwell and Trowa Barton, and finally regaining control to help defeat the faction’s ambitions at Vulkanus.

Included armaments: 

• Heat Shotels
• Anti-Beam Coating Cloak
