Wear your favorite Gundam box art

Even if you don't build Gunpla, you have to admit the box art on almost every Gundam kit is absolutely stunning. Sometimes I get lost just staring at an RX-78-II box. Sigh. Well, you don't have to keep your box art loving hob...

What is your method of payment? ...'Do you take Gundam?'

Indeed, as of next year there will be a Gundam Visa Card available via Suitomo Mitsui Bank. I don't know about you, but I am so ridiculously jealous of everyone who can and will apply for this credit card. While it doesn't ex...

Celebrate Gundam's 30th anniversary with this 12-pack Gunpla set

I gave building a Gundam a shot, and I have to admit, it was pretty fun. Haman's Qubeley now sits next to my computer, keeping watch over my desk. Bandai has just released a 30th anniversary pack of Gundam model kits (Gunpla)...

Pink Gundam, meet overenthusiastic Bedazzler

Oh dear. It seems like a day full of unholy hell-spawn. Hybrids fused through twisted mind-rays shot forth from the skulls of horribly lonely shut-ins and maniacal over-fiends.Now we've got this oddly attractive little Gunpla...

Greatest gunpla ever! The Four Celestial Guardians

Making great gunpla is always a lot of work; most of which requires artistic talent, high-quality paint, and equipment. These are the reasons why people like myself are scared away from partaking in making these wonderful min...

Featured Fan Art: Gunpla are miniature robots of art

Gunpla, or “Gundam Plastic Models” might not seem like art at first glance. Maybe it has something to do with their commercial value or worldwide availability, or if you put them together wrong they look like crap...

It's more like a "My Little Pwny"

I'm more a PVC gal than a plastic-model person, but I can't help but be impressed with this upcoming model kit release. From the Super Robot Taisen Original Generations series comes the Aussenseiter and Daigengar horse-and-ri...
