Whats Gunpla?
Gunpla (ガンプラ), derived from "Gundam plastic model" is the name of plastic model kits of vehicles and characters from the Gundam series. they have been huge with mecha enthusiasts since the 80s.
Gunpla are manufactured by Bandai in Japan and China. The first Gunpla kits were sold in 1980 in Japan.
The kits range in different scales with the most popular scales being: 1:144 (approx 13 cm tall), 1:100 (approx 16–19 cm tall) and 1:60 (approx 30 cm tall). Other scales include 1:200, 1:48, and the SD series.
I think the kits are really fun to build and I think everyone should give one a shot. You can find them at hobby stores or buy them online.
