-=READ THE GUIDES=-

Welcome to the Gunpla/Plamo General!

For those new, please read our guides. We have many resources available to help you in many different aspects of the hobby. They're here for you!

For the unclear, "plamo" is short for "plastic model". "Gunpla" is thus short for "Gundam plastic model". Many different kinds of models are built here, ranging from mecha to planes, cars, musume, you name it! If you're new, you're gonna screw up. Don't worry! If you're seasoned, don't make the newbies worry!

And don't forget to report shitposting and spam. The mods don't browse /m/ too often, so it's up to YOU to help keep our general clean and civil!

>Why won't anyone answer my question?
Be more specific, and try to provide clear images if you can.

>Why are my pictures sideways?
4chan strips EXIF data when images are uploaded, including the orientation tag if it's from your phone. To fix it save out your images separately, or use an app that will rotate and save the images for you.
One easy to use app that works well on Android:
play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.simplemobilephotoresizer

I bought an MG Unicorn today because it was on sale and I wanted an opponent for my MG Sinanju.
Is it actually a shit kit or is that exaggerated?
>>
>>23848632
I seriously don't get how Unicorn can produce both the best MG in history and a consistently cursed line of MGs like the titular Unicorn.
>>
>>23848632
It's fine. It's biggest issue is that it's limbs are fucking heavy(especially if you have the gatlings on them). Articulation isn't amazing either but fine enough to pose. It's really only the FA version with everything on it that has issues because of how much shit is stapled on.
