Assembly Guide

SKILL LEVEL REQUIRED

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.

No Cement Required

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.

No Painting Required

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 big is the finished model?

The 1/35 MG Dunbine stands an impressive 225mm (almost 9 inches) tall when completed, making it a substantial addition to any mecha model collection. Its imposing size allows for intricate detailing and captures the grandeur of this iconic Super Robot.

Is it pre-painted or do I need to paint it myself?

The MG Dunbine comes in pre-colored plastic with some parts molded in different colors for easy identification. However, it's not pre-painted, so you'll need to add your own paint touches to achieve the show-accurate anime colors and markings. This allows for customization and personalized detailing, but also requires additional materials and some painting skills.

What kind of articulation does it have?

The MG Dunbine boasts impressive articulation thanks to polycap joints throughout its body. You can pose its arms, legs, head, and even the wings dynamically, recreating iconic action scenes from the anime. The posability allows for expressive displays and brings the Dunbine to life on your shelf.

Does it come with any weapons or accessories?

Absolutely! The MG Dunbine comes equipped with an arsenal of weaponry, including: Buster Lance: The Dunbine's signature weapon, featuring interchangeable blades for both melee and ranged attacks. Beam Rifle: A powerful energy weapon for ranged combat. Beam Saber: A close-quarters combat blade for intense duels. Shield: Provides defensive options against enemy attacks. Additional parts: These include the Hover Pilder (a small flying vehicle that docks with the Dunbine), optional hand parts, and display stands.

How difficult is it to build?

The MG Dunbine is rated as a "High Grade" kit, aimed at experienced modelers who are comfortable with advanced techniques like glueing, painting, and decal application. The kit features numerous small parts and intricate details, requiring patience and precision during assembly. However, for skilled modelers, the challenge is rewarding, resulting in a stunning and accurate replica of the Dunbine.
