Description
The term Gunpla refers to plastic mecha models, characters, or vehicles from the Japanese Gundam franchise marketed by Bandai; it is a contraction of "Gundam plastic model". It first appeared in 1980.
THE GUNPLA PHILOSOPHY: THE MODEL FOR EVERYONE! "Without glue or paint".
All Gundam models are characterized by two essential properties:
- The parts are interlocking (nestable).
- The parts are molded in color.
Gunpla are classified into ranges (known as "grades") according to their quality and/or size. The main ones are:
- NG No Grade (1980): Although the term appears much later, it retrospectively refers to the first models released as early as 1980.
- HG High Grade (1990): The first range of higher quality at a 1/144 scale.
- MG Master Grade (1995): Of higher quality than HG High Grade, with fully modeled internal mechanics at a 1/100 scale.
- PG Perfect Grade (1998): The most technically advanced range at a 1/60 scale.
- FG First Grade (1999): An inexpensive clip-on range.
- HGUC High Grade Universal Century (1999): A popular reissue of the Universal Century robots.
- EX-model (2001): A range dedicated not to robots but to vehicles and related flying machines.
- MS Mega Size (2009): A 1/48 scale range.
- RG Real Grade (2010): Similar to MG Master Grade with an advanced internal skeleton but at a size called 1/144 like the "HG High Grade".
- RE/100 Reborn One Hundred (2014): A new range of 1/100 scale Gunpla.
- Super Deformed Gundam or SD Gundam: A Japanese animation franchise whose works are parodies of the Gundam saga, adopting the graphic codes of the "super deformed" style.
The complete classification is far more complex, as it depends on the scale (from 1/550 to 1/35), improvements (the Master Grade range exists in versions 1.5, 2.0, and 3.0), and special events (for example, the Ver.G 30th range was released for the thirtieth anniversary of the franchise).
