If any kits in this post are backordered when you read this, don’t worry — Bandai is great about restocking periodically. But, you’ll want to get your order in to secure a spot in line for the next restock!
Gundam
The powerfully built Gundam Virtue, piloted by Tieria Erde in “Mobile Suit Gundam 00,” gets a spectacular new Master Grade model kit from Bandai! The Virtue’s external armor can be detached to reveal the Gundam Nadleeh within! The lining parts create a sense of density; each part hatch can be slide to reproduce the GN field expansion state. The GN cable on its legs uses resin parts that have undergone hologram processing to give them extra eye-catching brilliance, too! The barrel of the GN cannon on both shoulders expands and contracts, and they can be moved to the Virtue’s upper body for its attack form!
