GUNPLA comes in many different series, from easy-assembly models to high levelled models. Find a GUNPLA that best suits your taste!

PG - Perfect Grade: 1/60 scale, approximately 30cm tall. The Ultimate Gundam. One of the largest and most detailed grades of GUNPLA kits. The PG line has significant external and internal details, from finger movement to articulation, and can integrate a LED lighting system with the kit (sold separately)
