The Gundam Thread

Scott McNeil is a guest at TFNation this weekend. Technically a Transformers convention but by all accounts I've heard he's an absolute dude so I got something special for him to sign. Nice. I'll be there on the Saturday as well.

I didn't know Gundam Base color was a thing. I just painted it how I thought would look cool. Only difference is I chose purple rather than dark blue 😹 😹

I really want to get a Gundam Base color RX-78-2 now

Per anecdotal Instagram reports, in 6 days Gundam Base London has run out of the exclusive items, plus the badges and bags.

Clearly very frustrating for any who have trekked out but does say there's a demand for Gundam in the UK.
 
Heard back from Bandai. They're working on addressing the stock issues ASAP and have advised keeping eyes on the Bandai Hobby UK socials for updates.
 
Posted a video to Bluesky of current stock at Gundam Base London.

Also, they were open they have A LOT of the free Wing posters. If you go, scan the QR code at the till. Simple little customer survey then they give you the poster.

Though if it's like the extra GQuuuuuuX BFI prints, expect to see the Wing posters at their MCM booth.
 
Since this article was published last week I've had direct clarification from Bandai UK. Although the exclusive kits at Gundam Base London will change each month, fans can expect certain earlier exclusives to return in later months. No specific examples given at this time.

This is the rub. I implore people to support Gundam Base London...but if you know where to look online, you can find this stuff from non scalpers and likely cheaper.
