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

How's The-O translated into SD chibi form?

Expect regal bulk! The iconic axe & shield become chunky playthings, the satellite cannon shrinks into a backpack ornament, but The-O's imposing presence remains, radiating royal charm in chibi form.

Does it have the "Beam Axe & Shield"?

Absolutely! The kit includes a smaller version of the axe & shield, ready for playful swings and defensive poses. While not perfectly scaled, they capture the essence of The-O's signature weaponry.

Is it poseable enough for dynamic action?

This kit features basic articulation in the arms and legs, allowing for some fun poses like axe swings and shield raises. Think adorable warrior stances rather than full-blown battlefield acrobatics.

How detailed is the pre-colored armor?

The armor features striking gold and purple patterns, echoing The-O's royal design. No painting is required, yet the pre-colored parts deliver a visually stunning final product that screams chunky majesty.

Where can I find this regal chibi kit?

Finding BB #216 SD The-O might require some effort as it's an older kit. Check online hobby stores specializing in Gunpla model kits, auction sites, or dedicated Gundam retailers. Be prepared for a potentially higher price tag than newer SD kits.
