This is the completed [HGUC] Crossbone Gundam X3 .
This is the third Crossbone Gundam developed by Sanary that appears in the manga “Mobile Suit Crossbone Gundam,” and is the machine that Tobias appears in the latter half of the story.
The blue and white colouring is so vibrant!


Like other variations such as the X2, the kit is based on the X1, with the different shapes of the head, chest, and arms reproduced with new molding.
The deployment gimmick of the unique arm I-field generator has been recreated, and the armament includes a Muramasa Blaster.


Compared to the base kit X1.
In addition to changes to the shape of the head, chest, and arms, the rear armor is equipped with the same screw web type as the X1 Kai.



The head has a 3-line relief on the forehead, and the red lines on the cheeks have changed to 2. There is a white sticker on the tip of the antenna, but the 3-line relief needs painting.
The mask part is the same U-shaped type as the X1, and you can choose between normal and open face.


The torso has a relief of a built-in Gatling gun attached to the chest armor.
The beam sabers and the red hook on the chest are color-coded with stickers.


The main thruster on the back has the same shape as the X1.
All four units have ball axis movement at their base, and the thrusters at their tips are also movable.



You can recreate the Core Fighter using interchangeable parts.


The brand marker on the forearm has been removed and a new I-field generator has been installed.


The opening and closing gimmick of the blue hatch has been reproduced, and an I-field generator is modeled inside.



The grip and palm are new, with circle-shaped details sculpted on the palm.
The gun holder is reused from the X1.


Around the waist. The rear armor is equipped with the same screw web as the X1 Custom.

By replacing the parts, you can also recreate the scissor anchor injection.



The legs are the same shape as X1, etc. The blue part of the knee is colored with a sticker.


Muramasa Blaster. The skull relief and the beam emitter on the side are recreated with paint.
Beam effects can be attached to the sides or tip.



The Beam Zamber and Buster Gun are the same as those included with the X1.
It can be docked to recreate the Zanbuster.



The same beam sabers and heat daggers are also included.

The screw web is the same as that of the X1 Kai.

Equipped with a Muramasa Blaster.



You can shoot and slam with the Muramasa Blaster.
You can also use it as a beam cannon by changing the way you hold it!



Install the beam effect.
I thought the Muramasa Blaster was a new design for the X3, but it seems to be the same one equipped on the Build Fighters-spec X1 Full Cloth.


I-field deployment!
I remember there was a character called Tobias in some Universal Century game who would charge in like a Parma cannon.



Zanbuster can separate and combine just like X1!



Beam sabers and heat daggers.
I’ve built many other Crossbone-type machines, so I’ve seen more armaments than I’ve ever seen my parents.



Shoots screw webs and scissor anchors!
You can add swaying movement to each one using the lead wires!

X1 Kai and Bundodo. The flat hand for the I-field is also useful for posing!

This concludes the review of [HGUC] Crossbone Gundam X3 !
So stay safe!
