    In honor of the 40th anniversary of the beloved Gundam franchise, the original Gundam is getting a modern re-imagining with an industrial touch! The kit was designed similarly to the Robot Spirits A.N.I.M.E figures in that the focus is to pursue a range of motion and articulation similar to that of a human! This ambitious undertaking features more articulation than any High Grade model kit to date, and the finished product will be as fun to pose and play with as an action figure!

    Collectibles and Figures Guide

    Before You Buy

    Limited & Exclusive Releases: Certain figures are produced in limited quantities or as store exclusives. Availability may be limited, and restocks are not guaranteed.

    Blind Box Items: Some figures come in blind boxes, meaning you will receive a random character. Please check the product description before purchasing.

    Pre-Orders: If the figure is a pre-order item, check the estimated release date and shipping timeline before placing an order.


    How to Care for Your Figures

    Avoid Direct Sunlight: UV exposure can cause colors to fade over time. Store figures away from direct sunlight.

    Temperature & Humidity Control: Keep figures in a cool, dry place to prevent warping or deterioration of materials.

    Regular Dusting: Use a soft brush or compressed air to gently remove dust without damaging delicate paintwork.

    Storage for Extra Parts: Some figures come with interchangeable hands, faces, or accessories. Store them in labeled bags or small containers to prevent loss.


    What you need
    Display:

    Some figures include stands, but others may require an additional stand for better stability.
    Recommendation: Action Base 5

    Protective Cases:

    If you wish to keep your collectibles in pristine condition, consider using acrylic display cases or protective boxes.

    Camera:

    Use a good camera or smartphone with proper lighting, like a ring light or softbox, for clear and detailed photos.

      A very fresh (and non-traditional) take on the classic RX-78-2

      ?The detail, the design, the unique build, the articulation, all of it is stellar—it's easily become one of my favourite HG kits.

      I cannot recommend this kit enough—

      Neat Feat of Engineering1

      One of my favorite builds so far, and really different from any other Gunpla - as you're building it you'll wonder how certain facets come together and you'll be impressed at the final result!

      I also really enjoy the new design and the colors - the blue especially pops really well.

      The only flaw (not enough to know off a star), is the red part on the chest is pretty loose.

      Divisive but worth it

      With a love or hate it design the G40 provides a no polycap experience and an excellent build for a fantastic finished product. Personally I really enjoy the car based take on my favourite Gundam and you'll find a small design document with the kit for those who want more information. The build is spectacularly smooth and extremely posable. Overall? One of my favourite Gunpla

      Quality Ferrari Gundam

      Personally I'm quite a fan of this unique redesign but apart from the aesthetics what you'll find is a quality build with great plastic feel and excellent colour and colour separation.
