Assembly Guide

Skill Level.2 Basic modeling skills are required. Parental supervision may be required for younger children. These kits are generally suitable for beginner builders. A basic set of modeling tools are required including nippers, hobby knife, sanding sticks/paper, file, and tweezers. No glue is needed for the general assembly. Parts will need to be removed by using a pair of nippers and cutting the part away from the runner. Parts may require clean-up where they were removed from the runner.

Gunpla (plastic model kits) are a snap together assembly and do not need plastic cement to complete. We always recommend having some plastic cement handy as a part of your modeler's tool kit. If you prefer to fix your model in a particular pose then plastic cement will work. Plastic cement is also perfect to use if a joint is loose. Apply plastic cement in a single thin layer and allow it to dry completely before test fitting. Re-apply more cement if necessary.

Gunpla (plastic model kits) are designed to be built and displayed without the need for painting. Kits are molded in different colours replicating the colours of the actual mecha from the Mecha series. A technique called colour separation, where multiple parts of the model are molded in different colours on the same sprue is also used. Mecha kits often include stickers or water-slide decals that can be applied to the model to enhance its appearance. Some Gunpla kits come with pre-painted parts or parts with pre-applied details, such as metallic or translucent finishes.

Many modelers still choose to paint their kits to customize and add further detail. Painting allows for more creativity and personalization, enabling modelers to achieve unique effects, weathering, and colour schemes that may not be available out of the box. However, the kits are designed to be enjoyable and visually appealing even without painting, making them accessible to a wide range of hobbyists.

Frequently Asked Questions

How complex is the build?

The MG Eclipse Gundam features intricate details and advanced mechanics, making it suitable for experienced builders. However, Bandai's known for clear instructions and innovative engineering, so passionate beginners could find it a rewarding challenge.

Does it include the Striker Packs?

The base MG Eclipse Gundam model does not include the optional Striker Packs (Maneuver and Raijin). These are sold separately, allowing you to customize your build and recreate diverse combat scenarios.

How are the LEDs implemented?

The internal LEDs are strategically placed in the head, chest, and backpack, creating a dramatic glowing effect reminiscent of the anime's portrayal. The kit requires separate batteries for activation.

How well does the transforming Scissor Blade work?

The Scissor Blade seamlessly shifts between sword and gun modes, offering dynamic display options. The transformation mechanism is smooth and secure, satisfying for both display and posing.

Is this a limited edition release?

While not explicitly labeled "limited edition," the MG Eclipse Gundam may see limited production runs due to its popularity. Securing your copy early ensures you don't miss out on this highly anticipated Gunpla.
