Does anyone have some gunpla they’ve put together recently, or that they’re working on?

Here’s an old RS-178 MKII PG kit I assembled recently. Still deciding how I want to detail him, but as my first PG the level of detail and articulation is really cool.

  • I’m a casual-- I only have two HG kits to my name and the one I’ve actually built, I forgot the name of the Gundam! Someone cooler than me can tell me what it is if they know… don’t make fun of me for it being a lil dusty, haha.

    I also have Char’s mobile suit Z’Gok, but I got it as an Xmas gift and I haven’t had time to build it. Maybe I’ll post an update when it’s done.

    I do like older Gundam, but tbh I am mostly a Witch from Mercury stan. Wish I could get an Aerial kit!

          High Grades are generally a bit more detailed, complicated and expensive than Entry Grades, but since the High Grade line has been going on for so long there’s been a lot of variation there. They’re the same scale, though, so if there’s both a High Grade and Entry Grade version of a design you like it’s really just a matter of preference which one you pick.

            • Yeah. There’s only been three Gundam Entry Grade kits so far; the original RX-78-2 (which you have a colour variation of,) the Strike Gundam (the main suit for the early episodes of Gundam Seed) and the Nu Gundam (from the movie Char’s Counterattack.) High Grade’s been going on for decades, though, so there’s tonnes of kits in that line. As I said, they’re a bit more complicated than the Entry Grades, but as long as you’re able to follow the instructions it shouldn’t be too bad.

      I had some issues finding Aerial at local hobby stores and online for a while, but then I found 3 just casually sitting on a shelf at Target! Good luck with your search. I’m still trying to track down an Aerial Rebuild for a reasonable price.
