Premium Bandai Gundam Model Kits

Gundam is a science fiction Japanese animated series (anime) created by Yoshiyuki Tomino, and has a huge following in Australia and around the world. It features giant robots that are piloted by humans. These robots are called Gundams! They protect the Earth from alien invaders and from other villains who want to conquer the planet.

The franchise is now a pop culture icon and has created a line of buildable action figures that both children and adult collectors are crazy about. If you are into model building, our Gundam models will be a great addition to your collection.

Explore the Gundam Universe with Gundam Kits

Because Gundam models are buildable toys, they encourage creativity, dexterity, attention to detail, and compliance to instructions. Gundam toys are considered to be one of the more popular hobbies and pastime for young adults, especially among the “geek” crowd.

Collecting Gundam toys encourage social interaction and participation in a community. People with the same interest are likely to congregate in groups, whether online or offline, and share tips and trivia about their beloved toy collection.

Grades of Gundam Plastic Kits or GunPla Kits

• Gunpla kits come in various grades – including entry grade Gundam (EG kits), high grade Gundam (HG kits), master grade Gundam (MG kits), perfect grade Gundam (PG kits), real grade Gundam (RG kits), and super deformed Gundam (SD kits).

• Each grade varies in size, complexity, articulation, and detail, with PG being the most detailed and largest among standard models.

• SDs are chibi-style representations of Gundam Mobile Suits.

Beginner-Friendly Gundam Kits

• Start with entry grade, super deformed, and high grade kits as they are simpler and require minimal tools.

• Follow the instruction manual, cut parts carefully from the runners, and piece them together.

Intermediate to Advanced Gundam Kits

• Intermediate kits include master grade and real grade kits, which offer more complexity and detail.

• Perfect grade kits are the highest grade line of Gundam models, and feature advanced technology and concepts.

• These kits require more experience and skill, but offer more realistic and detailed models.

Note that different models, such as the Freedom Gundam, can be available in multiple grades.

Painting and Customising Your Gundam Kit

• Painting is optional, as kits come pre-coloured, but can be used to customise or achieve a specific look.

• Acrylic or enamel hobby paints are recommended, along with proper priming.

• Techniques like panel lining, using decals, weathering, and top-coating can enhance the realism of the model.

Displaying Your Gundam Model

• Display your finished model on a shelf or in a display case to showcase your work.

• Consider adding a diorama or background to enhance the display.

• You can also use display-only models, such as those from the HY2M line, to create a unique display.
