Series Assembly Guide FAQ

Bandai 1/100 MG GF13-017NJ Shining Gundam

The Shining Gundam is piloted by series protagonist Domon Kasshu, the first mobile fighter representing Neo Japan in the 13th Gundam Fight. Shining Gundam is equipped with two beam sabers and its signature Shining Finger ability. This attack focuses heat into the Gundam's hand, which causes it to glow green and allows it to easily crush the head of an enemy Gundam. It contains an Emotion Energy System, which if given enough input allows the Gundam to power up significantly; this "Hyper mode" is also faithfully recreated in this model

Assembly Guide

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 Gundam series. A technique called colour separation, where multiple parts of the model are molded in different colours on the same sprue is also used. Gundam 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

What sets Master Grade (MG) kits apart from other Gunpla grades?

MG kits are known for their 1/100 scale, detailed inner frame systems, advanced articulation, and a greater number of parts. They offer a more intricate building experience and finished model than some other grades.

How long does it typically take to build an MG kit compared to other grades?

Due to their complexity and number of parts, MG kits generally take longer to assemble than HG (High Grade) kits. A build can range from several hours to a few days, depending on the model and builder's experience.

Do I need any special tools or paints for MG kits?

While MG kits are designed to be snap-fit, tools like nippers and hobby knives can enhance the building experience by cleaning parts. Paints are optional but can be used for customizing or detailing.

Are MG kits suitable for beginners?

While MG kits are more complex than HG kits, they're not impossible for beginners. However, newcomers might want to start with an HG or an easier MG kit to familiarize themselves with the basics before diving into more advanced models. We have a skill level indicator for each model to help potential builders understand possible level of difficulty

Can I pose MG models, and do they come with stands?

es, MG models have excellent articulation and can be posed in various ways. Some MG kits include stands, but not all. If you want dynamic aerial poses, you might consider buying a stand separately. Make sure you read our Blog about Action Bases
