Bandai 1/100 MGEX Unicorn Gundam Ver Ka
The model kit was really nice the one issue I had is that the right arm was a bit too loose for liking

Read MoreGunpla (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.
Ask about the spiky shoulder armor, the extended wing units, and the overall proportions compared to the anime depiction. Knowing the design accuracy helps manage expectations and visualize the final build.
Confirm if the 1/100 Barbatos 6th form comes with Mahiroo’s signature Devil Devil Mace and Claws, or if it only includes the regular mace and claws from previous Barbatos versions. Knowing the weapon inclusion ensures you get the full 6th form experience.
Ask about the transformation steps, the connection points' stability, and if any specific techniques are required. Knowing the transformation complexity helps manage potential frustration and display options.
Confirm if the 1/100 Barbatos 6th form is pre-painted and how smooth and consistent the finish is, especially on the black and red sections. If you prefer customization, clarify the material compatibility for your preferred paints. Knowing the painting requirement helps plan your building approach.
Ask if there are separate parts sets or kits designed for the 6th form, like extended wing effects, alternative mace designs, or other custom details. Knowing the upgrade options inspires future possibilities for your Devil Devil Barbatos.
