Frequently Asked Question
Gunpla are Bandai's precision snap-fit plastic model kits based on the mobile suits from the Gundam franchise. They require no glue, are colour-separated, and are produced across multiple grades of complexity.
The main grades are High Grade (HG, 1:144 scale, beginner friendly), Real Grade (RG, 1:144 with internal frame, intermediate), Master Grade (MG, 1:100 scale, advanced), and Perfect Grade (PG, 1:60 scale, expert level).
Gunpla are colour-separated so they look accurate without painting. Painting, panel lining, and topcoating significantly enhance the finish but are optional and suit those who want a hobby experience beyond assembly.
High Grade Gunpla are among the most beginner-friendly model kits available. They snap together cleanly with no glue required and produce impressive results even for first-time builders.
