New Additions to the Bandai Spirits Range
For Gundam collectors and Gunpla enthusiasts, Bandai Spirits continues to expand its lineup with exciting releases across the High Grade (HG), Entry Grade (EG), Master Grade (MG), and Super Deformed (SD/MGSD) ranges. Here are some of the new and recently announced kits worth adding to your watchlist.
Entry Grade Kits
The perfect starting point for Bandai kit collectors, these snap-fit models offer an effortless and enjoyable building experience. Designed with clever colour separation straight from the box, they deliver impressive detail without the need for glue, paint, or nippers. Parts can be cleanly removed from the runners by hand, making assembly simple and accessible for beginners. Ideal for newcomers and casual builders alike, these kits let you focus on the fun of construction while still achieving a sharp, polished finish. A brilliant introduction to the world of Bandai model kits, combining ease, quality, and satisfaction in every build.
High Grade Kits
The most popular and widely available grade in the range, these kits offer an excellent balance of detail, articulation, and ease of assembly. They feature impressive colour separation straight from the box, capturing the look of a huge variety of mobile suits from across the franchise. While painting is not required, small stickers are typically included to complete finer details and enhance accuracy. Easy to build yet highly satisfying, this grade is ideal for both newcomers and experienced builders looking for a fun, accessible way to collect and display iconic mobile suits.
Master Grade Kits
Highly sought after by experienced builders, these larger kits deliver a more advanced and rewarding construction experience. They feature a detailed inner frame that is fully built before the armour panels are layered on top, creating a highly mechanical and realistic structure. Designed with enhanced engineering, they often include sophisticated gimmicks such as opening hatches and moving components, along with outstanding articulation for dynamic posing. Offering a significant step up in complexity and detail, they are ideal for builders looking to push their skills further and enjoy a more intricate, display-worthy model.
Real Grade Kits
Designed to deliver the complexity of larger kits in a compact scale, these models feature an exceptionally advanced pre-assembled inner frame that forms the foundation of the build. They boast a remarkably high parts count and an impressive level of surface detail for their size, resulting in a visually striking finish straight out of the box. While the intricate engineering makes them more challenging than entry-level kits, the reward is a highly refined, realistic model with outstanding presence and articulation, perfect for builders who enjoy precision and detail in a smaller form factor.
Perfect Grade Kits
The pinnacle of Bandai’s engineering, these massive-scale kits represent the ultimate building experience. Packed with thousands of parts, they deliver extraordinary levels of detail and complexity. Many feature highly intricate inner frames, with armour layers built over advanced mechanical structures. Expect impressive realism, including moving pistons, articulated components, and even working LED lighting systems on select models. These kits demand time, patience, and precision, but reward builders with an unmatched display piece. Designed for dedicated enthusiasts, they stand as the most ambitious and visually stunning models in the entire range.
Super Deformed Kits
Pocket-sized and intentionally cute, these are simplified, cartoon-style versions of the robots with oversized heads and compact bodies. Designed for quick and easy assembly, they are inexpensive snap-fit kits that require very little time or effort to complete. With their approachable build process and playful proportions, they’re perfect for younger hobbyists or anyone new to the hobby. Despite their simplicity, they still capture the charm and personality of the original designs, making them a fun and accessible entry point into model kit building.
