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

Does this model kit require glue or is it snap-fit?

While the description doesn't explicitly state it, Bandai model kits are typically snap-fit, meaning glue isn't required for assembly.

How big is the completed model once assembled?

The description doesn't mention the dimensions. However, being a 1/1000 scale model, it's likely on the larger side for a model kit and will require a dedicated display space.

What skill level is required to build this model kit?

The description doesn't specify the difficulty level. However, with its detailed parts and customization options, it's likely geared towards experienced modelers who enjoy a challenge.

Are there any paints or additional tools included in the kit?

Similar to most model kits, paint and tools are likely not included. The description focuses on the build aspects, so you'll need to purchase paint and tools separately for a fully painted and detailed model.

How many of the 7 Asuka Class variations can I build with this kit?

The description mentions the kit includes waterslide decals and interchangeable parts to create 7 different variations. This means you can build any one of the 7 Asuka Class ship variations with this single model kit.

Excellent model but some tricky bits

A wonderfully detailed model that was relatively simple to build. Fantastic amount of detail and a great addition to your collection. A word of caution tho as there are a number of tiny or very thin detail pieces that can bend/snap easily so extra care is needed
