Bandai 1/100 MGEX Unicorn Gundam Ver Ka
The model kit was really nice the one issue I had is that the right arm was a bit too loose for liking
Great price for a great pair of tweezers.

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 Ozma Custom's complexity falls into the "experienced modeller" category due to its smaller scale and abundance of parts. Some delicate pieces and the Armored Parts' assembly might require patience and precision. If you're new to model kits, starting with a simpler VF-25 model might be better.
The kit comes molded in color, which is accurate to the Ozma Custom's design. However, the included colors are basic and lack shading or weathering. For a truly show-stopping finish, painting and decal application are highly recommended.
Yes, the Armoured Parts are modular and can be attached or detached with relative ease. This allows you to display the Ozma Custom in its standard VF-25S form or with the additional firepower of the armour.
While the Ozma Custom can stand on its own in some poses, especially in Battroid mode, for more dynamic aerial or action poses, an Action Base is highly recommended. The kit typically includes a clear Action Base for stable and attractive display.
The popularity of the VF-25 and the Ozma Custom specifically means there are various aftermarket options available. These can range from additional decals and weapons to lighting kits and custom parts for increased detail or posability. However, keep in mind that these are typically separate purchases and require compatibility with the specific 1/72 Ozma Custom kit you choose.
