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.

SD kits are a fantastic starting point for newcomers! Their simpler design and fewer parts make assembly straightforward. But don't be fooled; they still offer intricate details that both novices and seasoned builders will appreciate.

I've heard SD kits have a unique 'chibi' style. Will they look odd next to my other Gunpla models?

SD kits do have a distinct 'chibi' or 'super-deformed' style with exaggerated proportions. While they'll definitely stand out due to their unique design, many collectors love the contrast they offer in a diverse Gunpla collection. It all boils down to personal preference!

What’s Our Most Popular SD & SDCS Gundam?

The SD and SDCS lines from the Gundam universe feature deformed, "chibi" versions of iconic mobile suits. Popular SD models include the EX-Standard RX-78-2 Gundam and Legend BB Knight Gundam.
