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.
The Airmaster's defining feature is its massive detachable wingpack, granting it superior aerial mobility and devastating beam saber attacks from above. Imagine swooping down on enemies like a bird of prey!
While not the simplest HG kit, the Airmaster falls within a moderate range. The wingpack assembly requires some attention due to its size, but overall, it's a rewarding build for modelers with some experience.
The Airmaster comes equipped for both aerial and ground combat: Beam Rifle: A classic weapon for ranged attacks. Beam Saber: A powerful close-quarters weapon stored within the wingpack. Beam Javelin: A unique detachable lance weapon exclusive to the Airmaster. Wing Blades: Mounted on the wingpack, these blades add an extra layer of offensive and defensive capabilities. Display Stand: Show off your Airmaster's aerial prowess with the included stand.
The Airmaster boasts good articulation in the arms, legs, and head, allowing for dynamic poses. The wingpack can be positioned in various angles to recreate aerial maneuvers or folded onto the back for a more streamlined look.
