-=READ THE GUIDES=-

Welcome to the Gunpla/Plamo General!

For those new, please read our guides. We have many resources available to help you in many different aspects of the hobby. They're here for you!

For the unclear, "plamo" is short for "plastic model". "Gunpla" is thus short for "Gundam plastic model". Many different kinds of models are built here, ranging from mecha to planes, cars, musume, you name it! If you're new, you're gonna screw up. Don't worry! If you're seasoned, don't make the newbies worry!

And don't forget to report shitposting and spam. The mods don't browse /m/ too often, so it's up to YOU to help keep our general clean and civil!

>Why won't anyone answer my question?
Be more specific, and try to provide clear images if you can.

>Why are my pictures sideways?
4chan strips EXIF data when images are uploaded, including the orientation tag if it's from your phone. To fix it save out your images separately, or use an app that will rotate and save the images for you.
One easy to use app that works well on Android:
play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.simplemobilephotoresizer

Hello guys, I have a question. Why come turn a gundam did not get very many no grade model kits? It got 5 1/144s and one recolor, and 3 1/100s. I know it was commercial failure but X got twice the number of kits and it was commercial failure too:

I also like how even though it's the first time we're seeing Rose, Maxter, Dragon and Mandala available at the same time, they're deliberately spaced across several months so you're forced to pay the separate shipping cost each time.

bandai has to pay more money on shipping (potentially) if you order multiple things and ship them at once. While they do offer a flat rate for shipping they're still paying for it somewhere and I think that's part of the reason why they took away conslidation.

You know those kits retail for 6000 yen (pre-tax) right? Literally 40 bucks. Bandai is jewing us on the currency exchange rates by converting 6000 yen to $60. And they're paying like $3 on tariffs, which are calculated on the cost at port, and jacking up the price another $20. They're literally charging a 100% markup over their P-Bandai e-tailer price. I'm tired of foreign companies treating us like paypigs. The price should be like $45 after tariffs.

Huh wonder if something changed domestically that made them suddenly increase prices by 40% on Penis Bandai kits?
Obviously Bandai sucks for using this as an opportunity to overcharge, but you're a fucking idiot if you think they just woke up one day and decided to do this.

But for real though, how keen are the chinese with custom orders? Like /m/ could in theory pool together to meet the Minimum Order Qty and get some chinese factory to produce it for us.

Yeah it is. They're shipping to themselves. They can declare the value as nearly the same as the cost from the factory because they're their own buyers. Maybe a 10-20% markup over the value from the factory to account for the fact their US branch is doing distribution. I doubt it's more than 1/4th the MSRP. I'm being generous to say it's $3. Japan has a 15% tariff.
>but you're a fucking idiot if you think they just woke up one day and decided to do this.

Clearly not, since everything is going up in price. Did you really think entire countries were going to shrug their shoulders and accept losing an ungodly amount of money? The only people who actually have to deal with the ramifications of this are the common man, companies/countries don't care since not only are they not paying the tariffs if we're looking at pure profit margins, but in some cases they get to make even more. Plus all those tariff taxes are going straight into the pockets of the people on the top so they also don't give a fuck.

BNTCA does distribution directly ever since Bandai bought Bluefin some years ago. And it also controls the retailer, P-Bandai. And it controls the manufacturing, done directly in japan. They pretty much control the supply chain end to end, except for delivery to consumers. There aren't any unrelated US distributors CBP can compare against. They'd probably just ok a reasonable mark up over the factory price on which to apply a tariff, or if Bandai looks like they're doing something fishy, try to estimate it based on retail price.

I think itโ€™s actually considered better. I know one of the major criticisms of Bandaiโ€™s The O is that it isnโ€™t as intricate as other MGโ€™s were for that time period and that it only comes with two beam blades despite having four sabers. The Daban kit has four blades for all the sabers

I want one and the scale is the biggest draw. Bad inner-frame is inconsequential imo and lack of surface detail is fine since I've been wanting to get into custom scribing and pla-plating. The drawbacks don't seem like the worst thing but it's a bit absurd when it's listed for $170 CAD

This is the only valid criticism I see about RGs. However many of the newer HG releases look better than older MGs, I guess Bandai is just focusing on HG for the majority of mechs and leaving RG for the most popular ones. In any case it's clear they are prioritizing 144 over 1/100, whether it be RG or HG.

Also don't worry about the movie, it decided to off screen most character development and 30% of the actual events and make it seem like it takes place over a day instead of a month (or a couple?).
