Arrived in good condition
Great and easy build, only issue I had with it was the shoulder pads when rotating the arms. Cement it should fix the issue.

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.
Expect playful charm! The iconic beam rifle becomes a chunky blaster pistol, the head-mounted cannon shrinks into a cute horn, and the overall design retains its sleekness with a healthy dose of cuteness.
Absolutely! The kit includes a smaller version of the beam rifle, ready for playful poses and blasts. There's also a shield for defensive moves and additional play options.
This kit boasts improved articulation compared to older SD models, allowing for some dynamic swings and playful stances. Think chibi warrior strikes rather than full-blown aerial acrobatics.
The armor features striking green and white patterns, echoing the Leif Gundam's design. No painting is required, yet the pre-colored parts deliver a visually stunning final product that screams playful might.
The SDW Heroes Leif Gundam GP04 is a newer kit, so it should be readily available at most hobby stores specializing in Gunpla, online retailers, and even general toy stores.
