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.
Get ready for the ultimate centerpiece! This Mega Size Gundam stands a towering 375mm (almost 15 inches) tall when completed. Its impressive size captures the iconic RX-78-2 in stunning detail, dwarfing most other Gundam kits and demanding attention on your display shelf.
While snap-fit and glue-less, this Mega Size kit is rated as "Expert" due to its complexity and numerous parts. It's recommended for experienced modelers or those with patience and prior experience. Beginners might find it challenging, but the size and presence make it a rewarding feat for skilled builders.
It comes in pre-colored plastic with some parts molded in different colors, providing a good base for most builders. However, for the full anime aesthetics and personalized touches, paintwork is recommended. This lets you add weathering effects and make the iconic white and blue color scheme truly pop, but requires additional materials and some painting skills.
Absolutely! This Mega Size Gundam boasts impressive posability throughout its body, including arms, legs, head, and V-fin. Recreate iconic moments like the beam saber throw or heroic poses, letting this massive mobile suit come alive on your shelf.
Get ready for the full Gundam arsenal! The kit includes: Beam Saber: The classic close-quarters weapon, ready to unleash its blue glow. Beam Rifle: For long-range dominance and tactical posing options. Hyper Bazooka: A devastating heavy weapon for truly impressive displays. Shield: Defend against enemy attacks and add dynamic action to your poses.
