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 does the 1/48 scale compare to other Ingram kits?

This larger scale (almost twice the size of 1/35 kits) translates to impressive detail and presence. You'll appreciate intricate molded features, spacious areas for paint effects, and a truly imposing display piece.

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

Similar to other high-quality kits, the 1/48 Ingram comes in pre-colored plastic with some parts molded in different colors for easier assembly. However, for the full anime aesthetics and personalized touches, paintwork is recommended. This allows for artistic freedom but requires additional materials and some painting skills.

What kind of articulation does it have?

Prepare for dynamic poses! The 1/48 Ingram boasts advanced polycap joint articulation throughout its body, allowing for movement of arms, legs, head, and even fingers. Recreate iconic Patlabor action scenes with impressive range and realism.

Does it come with any weapons or accessories?

The Ingram is fully armed! Expect: Extendable Baton: The classic melee weapon with multiple lengths for diverse combat situations. Revolver & Holster: For close-quarters encounters, add a touch of realism with the sidearm and its dedicated holster. Riot Shield: Recreate iconic defensive stances and tense standoff scenes with this familiar Patlabor equipment. Optional Hand Parts: Give you flexibility in posing the Ingram with its various weapons.

How difficult is it to build?

Due to its size, complexity, and detail, the 1/48 Ingram is recommended for experienced modelers comfortable with advanced techniques like glueing, painting, and decal application. The numerous small parts and intricate details require patience and precision, but the reward is a breathtaking and highly customizable replica of the Ingram.
