SD EX-Standard #12 Deathscythe Hell (EW) "Gundam Wing" Plastic Model Kit

BAS2688284

The SD Gundam EX-Standard #012 Gundam Deathscythe Hell EW (also known as SDEX #012 or SD EX-Standard XXXG-01D2 Deathscythe Hell Endless Waltz) is a Super Deformed (SD) plastic model kit released by Bandai in March 2017 (March 2017 in Japan, with some sources noting September 2016 for pre-orders or early listings). It depicts Gundam Deathscythe Hell from Mobile Suit Gundam Wing: Endless Waltz in a cute, chibi-style SD format — featuring exaggerated proportions, big head, tiny body, and playful charm while retaining the suit's iconic black/purple/gold scheme, massive scythes, and stealthy assassin aesthetic.

This snap-fit kit (no glue required) is part of the SD Gundam EX-Standard line, which offers improved proportions, better posability (via newly designed joints), and 3mm joint compatibility with HG 1/144 Gunpla for weapon/accessory swaps. It stands approximately 8.5 cm (3.34 inches) tall when assembled — compact, shelf-friendly, and perfect for beginners, kids, or collectors adding a fun, stylized Deathscythe Hell to their lineup.

Key Features & Armaments

• Chibi Proportions — Classic SD style with oversized head, stubby limbs, and cute yet menacing expression; black/purple/gold scheme with metallic accents and translucent parts for scythe blades/eyes.
• Active Cloak — Backpack-mounted stealth cloak with posable deployment (wings spread or folded) for dramatic "cloak" poses.
• Beam Scythe — Massive dual-bladed scythe weapon; posable handle and clear effect parts for glowing blades (can split into two separate sickles or combine for full scythe).
• 3mm Joints — Abundant connection points on body, backpack, hands, and weapons — enables cross-compatibility with HG 1/144 kits (e.g., use Deathscythe Hell's scythe on a full-scale Gundam for "super assassin" customs).
• Articulation — Improved over older SD/BB kits: shoulders, elbows, hips, and neck for basic dynamic poses (scythe swing, cloak deployment, or stealth crouch); not as extensive as HG/MG but sufficient for SD fun.
• Details — Sharp molding of active cloak, scythe blades, thrusters, and mechanical textures; foil stickers for markings, eyes, vents, and highlights (no waterslide decals standard).
