Our customer service staff can only respond to messages during business hours, which unfortunately don’t include the weekends. It’s now Monday morning Japan time, and so the team is hard at work getting through the messages received over the weekend. You should have a response soon — thanks for your patience!

Q/A & Help Group 1 year, 1 month agoHELP! I am working on my first gunpla kit and have run into a hesitation. I have painted all the parts with tamiya spray cans (lacquer) and used a enamel paint to hand paint the eyes. My next step was to be panel lining wit either gundam markers or panel wash. I was looking into how to do both. I ran out to grab a cheap airplane kit to practice on the wings. I sprayed tamiya ts-13 clear to act as a top coat prior to trying both methods.

Q/A & Help Group 1 year, 1 month agoDon’t know if this is the right place to ask, but does anybody have a copy of the instructions for the following kit:
#11076 1/144 Guntank RX-75 ‘Guntank’ High Grade
I acquired the kit quite a few years ago and finally decided to start building it, but alas no instructions. -

I THINK it might supposed to be for Eugene’s custom Shiden, being he was second in command and Orga’s was the unicorn type, but for whatever reason it was never a thing in the anime? At least thats all I can come up with.
