The Shizuoka Hobby Show was held on May 8-12 this year, and the HLJ team headed down to check out the newest Gunpla and sci-fi kit announcements! We got a first-hand look at the debut of the HGUC Penelope with its massive flight unit, the HGAC Gundam Sandrock, as well as many other new kits from Kotobukiya, Aoshima, Good Smile Company, Max Factory, and other great manufacturers from Japan. So check below for our photos from the event, and stay tuned for our video covering the entire Bandai booth — coming soon!
