A Course on Common Sense Gunpla Build Methods

Gunpla, which continues to evolve daily, and its building techniques. These techniques aren’t something you can fully master just by looking. We have invited JUNIII, a leading Gunpla plastic modeler of HJ, as the main navigator in a large feature using the latest tools.
Furthermore, there will also be a big reveal on some of the techniques of HJ’s Gunpla Pro Modelers including Seira Masuo!? We shall deliver contents that are a must-see for those who are just starting out with Gunpla and those that are veteran modelers!

We Welcome Beginners! Make a Diorama More Easily with The Latest Materials!

Dioramas and vignettes are works that we have begun to see often, even in the latest model contests or through social media. Large-scaled dioramas are great, of course, but mini dioramas that can change your impression of a work in just a small amount of time are fascinating. However, the process in making a base is completely different from the process in making a plastic model, so it’s also fact that many people find dioramas quite difficult to attempt.
In this feature, we will thoroughly explain the charms of these dioramas so it is easy to understand even for beginners. Now, let’s begin this special project for you to relax and more readily enjoy dioramas!!

Saki: The Nationals
Hatsumi Usuzumi

Wow! I can wash your back with my chest at the same time~
Hatsumi Usuzumi, vice-captain of the Eisui Girls’ High School team, has become a AMAKUNI figure!

Hatsumi Usuzumi is the fifth installment of the AMAKUNI Saki: The Nationals figure series. She has been perfectly recreated with a lively pose, a cute Hatsumi-like smile, and tan lines with dazzling skin! Effects familiar to mahjong scenes are positioned at her feet and pins down Hatsumi’s image as the Evil Stone Shrine Maiden.
Additionally, the limited-edition DX “Wow! I can wash your back with my chest at the same time~” set will include a B3 cloth poster with a special illustration of Kasumi washing Hatsumi’s face!
Please continue to look forward to the next figures scheduled in the AMAKUNI Saki series!
