Huh, Zaku (GQ) stack already available 👀

Hey everyone! Heading out to the US for just over a week. Nothing crazy - work focused - so will be a little quiet till back.

I think it’s still real cool that the design team went with actual chains for the Zaku II Unidentified type. The Requiem kits totally work with a bit of weathering, so what’s a little extra glue and there.

New STRICT-G x New Era caps incoming (that Pomeranians one is extremely tempting….) Official listing: p-bandai.jp/strict-g/col...

These Mega Cat Project ‘Luckycat’ versions are just far too adorable ❤️ Official page: www.megahobby.jp/products/ite...

It’s my birthday! 🎉🎉 Also, 3 years ago exactly the day after my birthday…… 😭

This new IBO double-feature celebratory illustration, by chief mechanical animator (and long time Gundam franchise contributor) Hiroshi Arisawa is a treat!

The Metal Robot Spirits Gundam Marchosias is looking as monstrous as expected 🔥 Special P-Bandai feature/listing page: p-bandai.jp/item/item-10...

It’s been a cool Monday in Tokyo 🌤️ One new Gunpla release this week (JP)! ⚡️ HG Zaku (GQ)

Gosh, it seems impossible to find a nice, elegant TCG card binder- at least that doesn’t cost an arm to import to Japan? Hoping I’ve looked past something obvious - all tips appreciated! 🙏

TIL that there’s a (very good!) VOLKS store close to Yokohama station ✨

Yodobashi Yokohama really is… something!

Designer Ebikawa posted a celebratory illustration of the Eber-G, that features in the Gundam Iron-Blooded Orphans 10th Anniversary Short 'Wedge of Interposition’. 🔥 (this is also the likely candidate for that unrevealed HG IBO Gunpla at the Hobby Show)

So….. I’ve switched in the Gunpla Catalogue on the site, as the successor to the previous Gunpla Releases list 😅 🚧 ‘Beta’ status until I add all 2024 kits, directly link to Instruction Manual PDFs, and QA all the info. 🔎 Do try the search and/or filters! Link: www.gundampixel.com/gunpla

This year’s major Tamashii Nation 2025 exhibition coincides exactly with my time away for work in the US.. So I won’t be sharing impressions from the event, as per the last couple of years. I will pop into the after-show exhibition though, the week following!

The illustrations for the IBO short’s end credits sequence are a real treat, and appreciate them being sold as a set. 👌 Quick pic for now, as I’ll be sharing a separate post about the merch bits I picked up on Friday!

The box artwork for this week’s HG Zaku (GQ) has dropped, and… goes surprisingly hard?! 🔥

For any Gundam IBO x Vinyl enthusiasts, a single-LP '10th Anniversary Soundtrack Collection' - featuring a selection of tracks - is dropping on Feb 11th 2026. Only two weeks after the GQuuuuuuX vinyl!

Speaking of the stage event next Feb, it’s really coming together - so many VAs, plus composer Masaru Yokoyama, and even SPYAIR - all announced so far 🎉

I’ve just posted impressions on the Gundam IBO Urdr-Hunt & 10th Anniversary Short on the blog! Check it out if you like, let me know if you have any questions. ✨ www.gundampixel.com/blog/gundam-...

ガンプラの山を崩せ has posted a detailed photo review of the HG Monkey Rodi (598 Unit) / Monkey Crab Rodi - from Gundam Iron-Blooded Orphans Urdr Hunt. Take a look! ✨ Link: schizophonic9.com/re9/hg_monke...

Urdr-Hunt original OP, also featured in the movie (slightly updated) youtu.be/aPiR1zqNBeQ?...

When you wonder whether someone saw the same show as you…

Dressed to kill

Since it’s buried in the comments a little…

An official Gundam 'Witch-Themed’ Halloween illustration has dropped! 🧙

*takes breath* Mobile Suit Gundam IRON-BLOODED ORPHANS Urdr-Hunt Special Edition: Path of the Little Challenger - let’s go! I’ll follow up with impressions afterwards, in this thread 👇

Heading out! (Don’t forget that Urdr-Hunt’s soundtrack has been available on streaming for a while, it’s great)

You mean you don't summon your Gundam with virgin blood and a transmutation circle? Happy Halloween, y'all! From the Darkness manga is live on Patreon, so expect it on Dex soon.

Just caught up with IBO Urdr-Hunt’s main story beats courtesy of Gamore’s vid below. Now even more curious to check out its animation edit at the cinema… in just over 1 hour! 🚃 youtu.be/FIEdXHMmGNM?...

Had the pleasure of meeting up with @gundampixel.bsky.social who took our photo in front of the Unicorn Gundam then showed us around Odaiba where we completed the stamp rally (only getting a little confused by it) and touring the Gundam Base. Thanks bud!

It’s been a year, I’d still love a physical release - the only main Gundam show/OVA not to have one! 😭

If you’re ever in Akihabara, and enjoy manga etc - definitely consider popping into the Shosen Book Tower! Round the side where Yodobashi Camera is. I’ll prep a Store Spotlight post, as it certainly deserves one 🤓

Can anyone recommend a good IBO Urdr-Hunt story summary? I’ve decided I want to know how the story plays out, to understand exactly the approach of this Friday’s ‘movie’..! High level is fine, better even. 🙏

Hmmmm!! I’ve booked my seat for Iron-Blooded Orphans Urdr-Hunt this Friday 🎉 but interestingly the entire booking time is 1hr 35mins, and that includes the additional 10th Anniversary Short PLUS trailers. Leaving.. just over one hour for Urdr-Hunt? 😅

I can’t wait for this cheeky dude! Releases this Saturday in Japan - the Monkey Rodi (568 Unit) / Monkey Crab Rodi - from Gundam Iron-Blooded Orphans Urdr-Hunt. ⚡️ Final product images have just dropped, and now added to the very-much-WIP catalogue: www.gundampixel.com/gunpla-catal...

It’s been a while - here are the top 5 Gundam OPs being streamed via my YouTube collection 🌟 In at no.5, is the second edit of Gundam X’s first OP. www.youtube.com/watch?v=NoFj...

Couldn’t quite complete @gundampixel.bsky.social‘s Akihabara gunpla tour but we bought quite a lot of fun stuff. I’ll do a thorough haul share when we get home.

The Lalah and Kamille illustrations from that same collection still also go down great - in Yuko Higuchi’s signature style: higuchiyuko.com

Still think this Gundam Mk.II vs Psycho Gundam bag is real neat. Love how the Mk.II is embroidered on the mesh layer, and that the Psycho Gundam is so large that its head is cropped!

Box artwork has dropped for this week’s upcoming HG Monkey Rodi (568 Unit) / Monkey Crab Rodi - from Iron-Blooded Orphans Urdr-Hunt 🔥

◤◢◤◢◤◢◤◢◤◢◤◢◤◢◤◢ The 08th MS Team Report.1 Radio Drama ◤◢◤◢◤◢◤◢◤◢◤◢◤◢◤◢ www.youtube.com/playlist?lis... I finally got around to timing this for everyone, so now it's out in the wild! Enjoy!

I’m not sure whether there’s an EN account equivalent, but the JP Gundam Channel on YouTube has dropped Part 1 of a Gundam Iron-Blooded Orphans digest! (In advance of Urdr-Hunt screenings starting this coming Friday) Comes in at 42mins, curious as to how it's been edited. 🍿 youtu.be/_KpPgc7cOPI?...

New Iron-Blooded Orphans illustration, in celebration of its 10th anniversary and movie-release this Friday. 🔥

Some days, all you need is a...

Hatsune Miku x Gundam collab apparel and merch on sale at the Bandai Namco Cross Store, Ikebukuro (in Sunshine City). ✨

Who doesn’t love a nice round number! Thanks so much for the 6K everyone - you rock 🥳 🙏 Sounds like a great occasion for a giveaway, huh. Let me know if there’s anything (reasonable!) that you’d like to see included, and I’ll cook something up… 🎉

Gunpla Releases List has been updated, with November’s Japan Releases now up top. (also, can’t believe that’s almost November already 👀) Usual link! www.gundampixel.com/gunpla-relea...

Opening the Gundam Card Game Dual Impact Booster box now! I’ll share any LR or + (alt art) cards in this thread. Hopefully a few! 🤞

Sweet, it came through on release date 🎉
