Mega Size Model (1/48)

In: Gunpla List | Mega Size Model

Mega Size Model (MSM) is a line of 1/48 scale Gunpla kits of Mobile Suits from the Mobile Suit Gundam and Mobile Suit Gundam AGE TV series. Despite being the largest scale Gunpla line, Mega Size Model is priced lower than the 1/60 scale Perfect Grade due to a smaller parts count. Detail and articulation are equal to High Grade kits. As this line is geared toward beginners, the runner gates are thin enough to separate from the parts without the need of a nipper; each kit comes with a Double Separator to easily remove parts from the runner or separate two halves of a part. Some runners are designed to be broken in half and “sandwiched” for quick assembly. Each kit includes a water slide decal sheet. The first four kits included a how-to guide by Hobby Japan and Dengeki Hobby; the rest of the series has a beginner’s guide included on the instruction manual.
