Upcoming Hobby Kits Of 2019
(First Quarter)


It’s no secret that anime fans of the Middle East love their collectible hobby model kits, and 2019 brings a bunch of awesome new kits recently announced by Bandai that we here at Otaku ME look forward to having soon, including Gundam, Space Battleship Yamato, Full Metal Panic and more!

Have a look at what's coming up along with our own mini review on what we can hopefully expect out of these kits that might help you get hyped!

FEBRUARY

1/144 HGBD #27 Gundam Zerachiel
7

The Gundam Zerachiel, based of the old Harute Gundam retains many of the familiar aspects of the design, a sharp and spiked look albeit in a cool and subdued colour scheme while being able to transform and switch between three separate modes!



1/1000 Space Battleship Yamato U.N.C.F. D-1 Dreadnought Class Mars Defense Line Set
5

The Space Battleship Yamato series line continues to grow it’s already massive collection with not one but two more additions from this set of highly-detailed “Dreadnought Class” ships mounted on their own included stands making for an incredible display.



1/60 Full Metal Panic! ARX-7 Arbalest ver.IV Emergency Deployment Booster ver.
6

Thought the Arbalest was cool enough? This updated version comes in the more militaristic Gernsback colour scheme with the addition of the Deployment Booster pack which makes it even better, giving the Arbalest a pair of wings for flight! Get it posed with its multitude of weapon accessories while you mount it on the included action stand!



MARCH

1/144 HGUC #222 Narrative Gundam C-Packs
8

Clear red pieces that embrace the intricate sleek outer armor, The Narrative Gundam C-Pack equipment features a design reminiscent of two fan favourites (Nu Gundam and Unicorn Gundam) with a new refreshing style on building a High-Grade Gunpla kit. A must have for any fan of the Universal Century series or HG Gundam kits! Choose your standard Green Gundam eyes or go for the Red Berserker mode. >:D



1/100 MG Gundam Dynames
9

Finally, Bandai announces a Master Grade rendition long overdue! The Gundam Dynames joins the lineup with swiveling armor panel gimmicks, shields that swing, all mounted to a fully mechanical inner frame that's articulate enough to achieve its iconic Sniping pose that we’ve all come to love!



1/100 MG Gundam AGE II Magnum
10

We’re always happy to see a twist on a Gundam! The AGE II Magnum is the first MG kit of the latest Build Divers series bringing in an aggressive flared detailed design on a transformable frame for its signature “Phoenix Mode”!



1/1000 Space Battleship Yamato Space Battleship Yamato 2202 Final Battle ver.
11

The crew of the Yamato has faced many battles, and now it’s time to be the heroes once again as you build the ship in its Final Battle Version! Assemble the upgraded turrets on the bulked up-armored hull with LED unit (sold separately) mountings on the Bow and Stern!



NEW SD Sengokuden Soketsuden series!
14 16 17

SD or Super Deformed Gundam kits are pretty cute and cool on their own, however the BB-Senshi Sengokuden Soketsuden series buff up the styling to a whole new level with Samurai aesthetics and themed armor and accessories! There’s a whole new range of these awesome little warriors to look out for!
