Hey guys here is a scan of two new Gundam’s from the Astray series! We can see they are both a modified Strike and Buster. They both look interesting im not sure if we will see any kits since the astray series has tons of awesome suits that don’t have a model kit (“Mars Jacket” armor anyone!)
Still this makes up for that post on that pink fiasco of a Gundam!

The latest high grades too come out from the Gundam 00 series are the Garazzo and the Susanowa too great looking kits i might add! The box art is unbelieveable drawn by famous illustrator CARAMEL MAMA aka Naochika Morishita. If his art looks familiar you might recognize it from the Bloody Roar fighting game series or the Rangers Strike illust cards!

It’s not everyday that you see an anime retailer attempting to assist customers on learning how to build a basic Gundam model kit. Anime Otaku Depot LLC recently uploaded a video on YouTube for gunpla beginners. In the video, the person discusses what he believes beginners would need to know about the gunpla hobby.
The kit he uses in the video is the 1/100 High Grade Gundam Wing 0 from the “Gundam Wing” series. He shows the basic tools that most gunpla enthusiasts would recommend and describes the use for each one. Next, he explains some basic steps including confirming all parts are included, how to remove parts, and how to apply stickers. He also mentions about panel lining and shows a brief comparison between a part that has panel lines and one that doesn’t.
The video isn’t in great quality but it’s one of the few that doesn’t have random music playing in the background while a gunpla hobbyist build or details a kit. However, it doesn’t include the person building the Gundam Wing 0 in real-time but if you built a Gundam kit before you’ll probably believe it’s not necessary. The video is quite easy for newcomers to understand and may even motivate giving a gunpla a go.
What do you think?
Check out the video below.

Here is a look at the newest Master grade coming up from Bandai. I like the new stand alone GN drive in particular also note the detail on the blade its chromed! We also see some additional parts to make it look like the repair Exia that was in the series so it’s like getting two for one! Can’t wait to get my hand on this for a closer and better look anyway enjoy the little gallery below!
