Bandai SD Gundam Chibi Senshi #05 Star GP01 Jr. Model Kit

Model Kit Overview:

Bandai Super Deformed (SD) Gundam Chibi Senshi #05 Star GP01 Jr. Model Kit. This is a re-release of the classic 1992 kit featuring Star Gundam GP01, a mobile suit developed as part of the Gundam Development Project. The GP01 was originally a ground-use, general-purpose mobile suit intended to improve upon the legendary RX-78-2 Gundam, known for its exceptional performance during the One Year War. The GP01 featured significant advancements, including upgraded sensors and balancers designed to enhance the movement and make it more human-like. One of the key design elements was the retention of the Core Block System, which ensured the pilot's survival and the preservation of combat data.

SD Gundam models are characterized by their "chibi" or "super deformed" appearance. The SD Gundam Chibi Senshi Jr. lineup is even smaller than the BB Senshi SD series while maintaining the same intricate details. They feature exaggerated proportions with large heads and small bodies, giving them a cute and cartoony look compared to the more realistic designs of standard Gundam models. Despite their small size and comical appearance, SD Gundams incorporate detailed designs and intricate armor that reflect their more serious counterparts in the series. This model kit features snap-fit assembly, eliminating the need for glue and making it perfect for collectors and fans of the show, and those who are just getting into the modeling hobby. With pre-colored parts, this model reduces the need for painting unless further detail is desired.
