Gundam Model Kits

OK, Today I Think i will go over the different classifications that gundam models fall into. I will go over size first. There are 3 standard size models 1:144, 1:100, and 1:60. The 1:144 are the smallest models typically about 5 inches tall, they come in only HG (high grade) versions and this is the size you can find almost any mobile suit or Mobile arrmor in any series in. they are snap together like all gundam models. these you can also paint and do detail work on but because of the small size the detail work is harder to do. The next size is 1:100 the size I love to collect, these models are about 8 inches tall and come in both HG and MG (master grade) versions. The MG versions typically have more flexibility and better joints so you can pose them in may different ways, they also have display stands that come with them sometimes. The HG 1:100 models are the ones I mostly collect and have because the MG models are a bit more exspensive to buy. 1:100 models for the main gundams are typically all that is avalible of any gundam series. The last is 1:60 the big PG (perfect grade) models these are usually 14 inches or taller. They can be posed in almost any pose you see in the animes. these models can cost more than $100 each and can take days to put together. The 1:60 size only comes in the “hero” gundam typically. Gundam seed models are the only exception because both the strike and the strike rouge are avalible in the 1:60 size.
