Great base, although having it at a significant height means having to centre the model so as to not tip it over.

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 Kenbu features excellent articulation in the arms, legs, and torso, allowing for a wide range of poses. However, the ankles may limit extreme crouching positions.
The Kenbu comes equipped with its signature beam rifle, a melee sword, and interchangeable hand parts. Additional weapon sets or expansion parts might be sold separately depending on the specific release.
The Kenbu's snap-fit design makes it ideal for beginners and experienced builders alike. The instructions are clear and easy to follow, with minimal gluing required.
The Kenbu stands approximately 5 inches tall when assembled, similar to other 1/72 scale humanoid figures. It should fit comfortably in most standard display cases designed for that scale.
The availability of the Kenbu may vary depending on your region and preferred retailer. Check online hobby stores and anime merchandise shops for current stock and pricing. Limited edition releases might require pre-orders or searching for secondary market options.
