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.
Exquisitely detailed injection plastic kit from Macross Zero can be built as the VF-0S or the VF-0A, as you wish. Poseable when complete, but not transformable. Still, Hasegawa does some superb molding, and you won't be disappointed with the surface detail and there's a sheet of decals included. Completed height is just over 22 cm.
Paint and glue are required.
Macross, a groundbreaking anime series that took flight in 1982, is renowned for its fusion of thrilling interstellar battles and the power of music.

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.

While the "Battroid" is in the name, this kit is actually fully transformable! You can assemble it in all three iconic configurations – Fighter, Gerwalk, and Battroid – letting you recreate the dynamic combat scenes from Macross Zero on your shelf.
The 1/72 VF-0A/S Battroid Macross Zero is mainly a snap-fit kit, making it user-friendly for both beginners and experienced modelers. However, some small parts or specific techniques might require glue for a secure hold. Always check the product instructions for details.
The cockpit and internal details vary depending on the specific manufacturer and release of the kit. Some offer basic interiors with decals, while others might have more intricate details like pilot figures and instrument panels. Checking reviews or detailed descriptions online can give you a clearer picture.
The articulation of the arms and legs varies between different kits and manufacturers. Look for information about the joint mechanisms and range of motion in the product description or reviews. Some kits offer wide movements for dynamic poses, while others might have more limited articulation.
