Assembly Guide

Skill Level.2 Basic modeling skills are required. Parental supervision may be required for younger children. These kits are generally suitable for beginner builders. A basic set of modeling tools are required including nippers, hobby knife, sanding sticks/paper, file, and tweezers. No glue is needed for the general assembly. Parts will need to be removed by using a pair of nippers and cutting the part away from the runner. Parts may require clean-up where they were removed from the runner.

Gunpla (plastic model kits) are a snap together assembly and do not need plastic cement to complete. We always recommend having some plastic cement handy as a part of your modeler's tool kit. If you prefer to fix your model in a particular pose then plastic cement will work. Plastic cement is also perfect to use if a joint is loose. Apply plastic cement in a single thin layer and allow it to dry completely before test fitting. Re-apply more cement if necessary.

Gunpla (plastic model kits) are designed to be built and displayed without the need for painting. Kits are molded in different colours replicating the colours of the actual mecha from the Gundam series. A technique called colour separation, where multiple parts of the model are molded in different colours on the same sprue is also used. Gundam kits often include stickers or water-slide decals that can be applied to the model to enhance its appearance. Some Gunpla kits come with pre-painted parts or parts with pre-applied details, such as metallic or translucent finishes.

Many modelers still choose to paint their kits to customize and add further detail. Painting allows for more creativity and personalization, enabling modelers to achieve unique effects, weathering, and colour schemes that may not be available out of the box. However, the kits are designed to be enjoyable and visually appealing even without painting, making them accessible to a wide range of hobbyists.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the main difference between Zoids and Gundam models?

Zoids are bio-mechanical creatures inspired by animals like dinosaurs, insects, and mammals, introduced by Tomy (Takara-Tomy). They have a more organic and animalistic design. Gundams, on the other hand, are humanoid mechs from the Gundam anime series, boasting intricate designs rooted in robotic aesthetics.

What tools do I need to start building a Zoid model?

Most Zoid builders begin with basic tools such as nippers to cleanly cut parts from the runners, a set of tweezers for handling small parts or applying decals, and perhaps a file or sandpaper to smooth out any rough edges. As you advance, you might also invest in panel lining pens and paints to enhance details.

Can I customise my Zoid models with parts from other kits or brands?

Absolutely! Many builders love to kitbash, which means combining parts from various kits to create unique designs. While Zoids have distinct features, you can mix and match with parts from other Zoid models or even from different model brands, though some modification might be needed for a perfect fit.

Are Zoids suitable for beginner model builders?

Yes, Zoids come in varying levels of complexity. Many basic kits are beginner-friendly with snap-together construction and pre-colored parts. As you gain more experience, you can move on to the more intricate models, like those in the HMM series. Always review the model's difficulty rating or recommended age to gauge its complexity.

How Does the Quality of Zoids Kits Compare to Gundam Kits?

Both Zoids and Gundam kits have their strengths and cater to different thematic interests. Zoids lean more towards bio-mechanical creature designs, while Gundam's are typically humanoid mechs. Quality is generally high in both, but specific experiences might vary based on the kit and line.

Incredibly bulky and complicated, but such a fun build!

This is one of those kits where you get it out of the box and just stare in horror realising you may have bitten off more than you can chew. It's incredibly complex with many of the sections seemingly needing three hands to put together, but as each section gets finished you really get a sense of the scale and bulk of the D Bison. The complete model looks and feels like something with incredible weight and power behind it, and it's definitely something you wanna buy if you're a fan of New Century.
