Awesome Entry Point!

An awesome and affordable way to enter the GunPla world!! The entry grade is perfect for those looking to practice customizing their first Gundam without having to worry about ruining their more expensive models by accident! With decent articulation, and range of motion, you could achieve a really decent finished custom model (not to take away from how decent they look right out the box). These are also fairly easy builds, so are a great way to spend a bit of time building with the kids (and secretly making them think that they love your hobby too).

Excellent addition to any collection

A good kit with very good accessories. The arms have a little trouble holding up the large sword, but is pretty solid otherwise. Looks good on display especially with the very cool beam cape.

Versatile base for posing Gunpla

Pretty versatile little base for displaying your Gunpla in a more dynamic pose.

Can easily pose 2 HGs on the single base for a group shot!

Must have for Ultraman fans

The model very closely resembles Ultraman 7 from the anime, the joints are very versatile and allow for all sorts of actions, must have for Ultraman fans

SD Wukong!

Very fun little kit with a lot of effects parts and options for different builds and poses.

Note that the box photos show the kit with a lot of colour correction work on it, more than just what is provided by the stickers.

I would suggest picking up some gold paints, or gold marker to help correcting and highlighting!

Raise your Flag!

This is a great kit for any IBO fan to add Barbatos to your collection! The inner frame has great detail and so many small touches that it actually feels wrong to cover it up with the armour!
There are some joints that are a bit loose and might require you to tighten them up a bit, but nothing that is really a big problem.
The kit is great fun to pose and photograph, but should come with a warning that it will leave you wanting more.

Surprisingly fun build!

Very fun build for something so silly! The kit has really great colour separation examples and a lot of tiny details if you like detailing - stickers are available if you do want a more authentic look instead of doing the details yourself! Do Not Eat :p

A necessity for all builders!

Most kits will need you to cut the parts out of the runners they come attached to and these nippers are the perfect basic set to start of your toolkit with. You may want to upgrade them for a pre in time when you move onto more detailed and complex kits, but these are great for anyone just starting out with the hobby.

Adorable double build

The first thing to note about this set is that you get two kits in one box, which is amazing value for money. The Hello Kitty and SD RX-78-2 are both really simple to assemble and don't require nippers as the parts can be popped straight out of the runners. The SD model is a bit more involved and detailed than the Hello Kitty, but both are a great way to get into the hobby if you're new to it, or trying to introduce someone else to it! This is also a really fun build if you're looking for something to do as an activity with your partner or friend.

Best way to represent GunplaSA!

These stickers are beautifully designed, and are a high quality print. No better way to show off our love for GunplSA and decorate toolboxes or cutting mats than this collection. Have mine proudly displayed at all times!

Excellent additional tool

Anyone looking to really get in deep with their panel lining definitely needs to get a brown marker to add to their collection of tools. Grey, and black are best suited to white, grey, or darker parts of your kit. The brown marker is best suited to red, yellow, and orange parts for that extra sense of realism. A must have if you really want your snap builds to look their best when on display, without using any paint.

Must have basic tool

For those who want to bring out the fine details on the panels of your kits, this is a necessity for the toolkit. Can be used to line all panel colours, so if you are only looking to invest in just one marker then this is the one to get. Complimented well when used together with grey and brown markers to really add to your snap builds. If you aren't planning to paint your kit, then you definitely want one of these to truly show it off!
