Ever since 2014 when me and my dad first found out about Gundam Model Kits, we were instantly hooked. Despite a lot of things breaking and the frustration, Gundam was just a way for us to relax and spend some time together. No, my dad is not dead, and we still build Gunpla together, but Gundam was just something for us to calm down after a long day. We constantly check if there are any new model kits at out local hobby shop and if we do, we buy it... a few weeks later. I've always loved robots, and so did my dad so this is something fun for both of us. We would dedicate entire shelves or display cases just for these model kits, because they meant so much to us. SO yeah, thank you for listening to my boring speech or whatever but yeah. That's how Gundam can affect lives like how it did with ours..

Gunpla: On kid hand become a toy On man hand become an art

0:20 this guy picked a RG What a legend

0:50 My inner instinct: *STOP YOU'VE VIOLATED THE LAW*

Wouldn't it be nice if this really was Bandai's way of saying "Hey, we're gonna try to take this international again!"?

0:42 "Hey dad, these stickers are really shitty."

This really makes me remember getting my first kit when my emotional state was very fragile, if it weren't for the mg banshee I bought I would probably not be here. I was on the verge of giving up in life and was thinking on taking my life but since I got to building gunpla's, I had something that kept me busy and made me forget about my problems, Thank you Bandai and thank you Japan

"Its fun to build gunpla!" My wallet: Bro im not straight up having a good time

Why buy lego when gunpla is better and cheaper

0:48 ok that just hit my chest

This commercial warms my heart. As a 14 year old, I build Gundams with my father, so I am happy to see other kids enjoy the wonders of building gunpla. Thank you bandi.

I have 44 years old and started to build gumplas just 2 ago. Is so fun and relaxing, and at same time helps me with my work (im a workshop teacher) to show my 13 years old students about the importance of every piece and the order of them in their works. By now i made a little squad of Leos and Serpents mostly, but also have a couple of Zgoks and others, including of course a Zaku ;3 . Greetings from Argentina!

Bro I'm so jealous with these families building gundams. Like I only have three Gundam sets Whenever I finished building them My mom would always say "That's so small compared to the box! That's like a toy from a flea market! It's so expensive!." Like man I just wanna build gundams since it satisfies me when I finish.

wallet: _exists_ gunpla: Imma end this man's whole career

My eldest son got into gunpla seeing me build mine and he was 9 yrs old, he starting showing interest in building his when he was 11, and back then he wanted every gunpla he could get his hands on...and learned the valuable lesson of saving up his money when ever he got any to buy any model kit he wanted and in turn his little brother started showing interest in gunpla and it helps them all with the lesson of saving, having patience and finishing a project when you start one so I for one am happy they got into my hobby. So I'm greatful to gunpla

See, This is a fantastic international ad for Gunpla. too bad they don't sell internationally anymore. haven't seen a legit seller in the states in years. there is a market here. and it could grow if they would give it a chance.

This is how I will raise my children.

I used to like Lego until eventually my friend show me...the beauty...of gunpla,so I ditch my Lego product.

I started building Gunpla back in 2009 influenced by my cousins... And now, I'm still doing it!

This is a great way to tell everybody that gunpla is for everybody for the hardcore painter and custom builders to the people who just are starting out on this great hobby

Gunpla truly is for everybody. I got into it, then I got my sister into it, then my mom got into it, and now my brother wants to get an HG Evangelion Unit 00

When it takes you more time to build an HG bearguy than an RG Zgok

From young this mecha series has made my day to the point that almost once a month i bought one, and if my pocket money isn't enough i'd buy a chinese version just to buy and appreciate this whole series line, till now, after 4 moving and fragile boxes, the parts are many scattered in my attic but i manage to build with each part to make a custom figure like the build series, which is why i love this series and has been going for a long year is a proof that i have a great childhood, every time when times get hard, i just build a gunpla, bored then just do custom, man... Can't believe a plastic toy like this manage to make a beautiful childhood for me

During Gundam X's airing in the Philippines, the first HG Gundam I went after was... Virsago Chest Break! I casually built it by just twisting them away from the runners. Had fun bashing it with my other clay creations then it broke. Several years after, jump back in 2019, Gundam, 30 Minute Missions, Animagear and Aqua Shooters brought me back to model kit building.

*Shows children on ad Box: Not suitable for children

I dunno is it as cool as a bunch of cool cats telling us about their level of commitment?

Kids today will never understand this masterpieces😢😢😢

Me: *loves Lego* Gundaminfo: Me: Ok, where can I get a *Try burning Gundam*

When you know your nephew playing your gunpla like those kids *Suddenly heartbeat really afraid

5 years later and I'm still liking this ad. I mean, the concept is simple yet delivered nicely.

Bring ‘em to Europe pleaseeeee Still suffering the pain without Gundam in Austria

Wish I lived in a world like this.

I built Gunpla since the 90's but stopped when I had children. When my son got bigger, he saw my backlog. Now we build Gunpla together. Even my daughter enjoys it.

0:23 "Crying Grandaddy noises"

I used to build models when I was a kid, but they were a bit of an ordeal with all that glue. But Bandai's snapfit kits are a joy to build, whether you are just building them straight from the box or fully painting and customising them. I bought a couple of Gundam kits in the 1990s, but only in the last four years have I returned to the hobby. I would have a been a Gundam-nut if these had been around during my childhood!

The gunpla aren't the only thing made of plastic in this commercial.

There's not a lot of things that make me smile from wholesomeness, but this... this warms my heart.

My little cousin would run away 8 minutes into the build, and find something else to do on his XplayBoxStation.

Gunpla is not for small boys and girls Plot twist : the young girl was happy about building knight gundam

I remembered watching this with my first gundam

“dad i wanna buy the one that’s a literal war crime”

This is very wholesome. If I ever have kids, I want to share this experience with them for sure.

If Bandai America had produced a Gunpla commercial this simple, the Gundam franchise wouldn't have died out in the U.S.

Cool ad bro, but how about those P-Bandais

いつかまた…必死に取り合いするんじゃあなくって、こんな風に選べる日が来るといいな

This is why I build model kits for 3 years.

What they don’t tell you is that after the first kit it becomes the tenth kit then hundredth kit then before you have to many. 10/10 would recommend

I remember building my first model kit with my parents' help back in the 90s. If i ever have kids I'll try to build one with them too

Fun to build a gunpla Without money Fuck my life i cant buy a gunpla

Man i wish i had friends like those 3 kids Making those gunpla and playing with them together. in my school none of them know what gunpla is,only my friends know them but they dont know how to build one,i live in indonesia west java so its quite hard to find the gunpla that i wanted and a little over priced for me but i really need to step up my game,up to the next level and im only 10 and ive been collecting gunplas since i was a 7 years old :D.

Tbh when I was a little kid I thought gundams were so boring and painful but when I bought a gundam I built it just in 2 hours and I just thought it was 10 minutes😅 Now I look for stores that I can buy gundams from

Gunpla is amazing. theyre really cool and also kids think theyre cool from theyre space machine esc designs and you dont even need to get into the series to enjoy gunpla. it started when i found out about it and now im here.

お父さん達がガチ勢でワロタ‪w

I like how they have little kids in this ad when most children likely wouldn't have the patience to put together a model kit and likely will have a few of the pieces up their nose by the end of the day.

Years ago during the Gundam Wing anime craze here in the Philippines yesrs ago in the 90's, I remember my two cousins build some Gunplas from the Gundam Wing series and also some SD gundam ones as well. Watching them building is enjoyable I'm not gonna lie but as I got older, building one for yourself is even more fun. And thank goodness I decide to starting building Gunplas last year in December. (Thanks Gundam Vs. Gundam NEXT Plus(PSP) for reignited my appreciation for Gundam 8 years ago though before I decide to collect some Gunpla last year)

Bandai, that's a GREAT commercial :) For once it talks to EVERYONE. That's great job!

I need the gunpla in my local stores. I bought a star winning on amazon about two years ago and ever since them I haven't been able to purchase a single one. I want a HG Barbatos next but I won't get it ever because there are no shops where I can purchase Gundam products, let alone gunpla. And now, a very short story So a solid 5 years ago I found out about gunpla because of some toy painter I used to watch on KZfaq and I begun my research, which led me to discover other giant robots like Evangelion (I refuse to watch it), darling in the shipp (only liked the bots), and Frame Arms (along with its gijinka counterpart). The day I watched a video by youheidx for the first time I immediately subscribed and checked out their channel, and I fell in love with the star winning. 3 years after, I finally bought it and asked my mother for help with the build, for I am quite impatient and I am somewhat weak. A few minutes later, it was "finished" and had nubs and misplaced stickers all over, but I still enjoyed both building it, and finishing the build. Sadly, I haven't been able to get or build any others since then and I miss the feeling of building a gunpla. But I still look forward to the day I get my hands on a new model kit, and do it right (except painting the damn thing, I am already broke enough as it is, although I WILL fix any loose joints

now if only the world was truly like this, it would be a godly life

Damn bro 7 years and this appeared in my feed. Instant flashbacks to building Gunplas with the homies

I spent my first year of gunpla plucking with hand. I regretted it.

こうやって世界にガンプラが広まるって考えたら嬉しくなった(*´ω｀*)

Great commercial IMO, but too bad gunpla is hard to get in some parts of the world. I have to buy all mine from amazon and hlj, but I'd like to pay the same price the Japanese do + some reasonable shipping. The places that do sell where I live either mark up the kits ridiculously or don't have a lot of selection at all. Its so bad that I have to import the stuff for my friends because they are getting ripped off so bad. I've bought shelves worth of gunpla over half the year but haven't gotten around to building any. But it's kinda awesome knowing that I have a stache to build at will. I echo the opinion of making gunpla a more accessible product to the global market: you can only maintain and grow the domestic for so long before it stagnates. Come on Bandai give me more of a reason to throw money at you!

not many places near me in Australia sell's these kits. I enjoyed building them I have about 3 Gundam models that I built myself and the feeling of completing the build of one is good

Gundam build line really inspire me to build gunpla back in the 2017 when gundam build fighter aired in Malaysia

I wish there were more people who liked Gundam at my age. I can't talk about it with anyone :(

0:50-0:52 3 gundams:help us

I don't need videos to tell me how fun it is, I'm already addicted

0:12 can we just focus on the dad opening the box in the store

0:06 クシャトリアッ！

Gunpla is love, Gunpla is life!

That girl is beautiful

It's all fun and games until you build the RG Zeta Gundam

If only Bandai took steps to initiate gundam into broader fields.

It really is fun... untill you run out of shelf

That's cool they also had some American kids do the commercial,which really does show how gunpla is for anyone

This brings me back to the day's of when me and my father would build gunpla

I love gunpla so much 😍😍

Of course the girl would pick Beargguy III

This actually makes me very happy that people are enjoying these I'm very new to this franchise in fact I have just started today and I love it so far I haven't gotten any of the kits but I'll try soon

that kid's sengoku astray is panel lined better than most of my builds 😂😂

"Fun to build GUNPLA!" Me who spedrun trying to make a MSN-02 ZEONG (Principality of Zeon Mobile suit for NEWTYPE" HGUC 1/144 Universal century in an hour and has splinters all over my fingers: *F U N*

"fun to build gunpla" Me who still waiting the new rg kit:where rg

This video never get old :)

i want one so bad

-For Anyone -With Anybody -And Any Way You Like “Fun To Build GUNPLA”

In my brain: oh I wanna like that I can buy as many gunpla as i want ! Reality: Oh I must full my piggy bank first to buy one gunpla

Oh my god! It's like a 90's Mcdonalds commercial only with Gundams. This is the best!

あぁこんな風に選びながら買えた時代が懐かしい

Gunpla is love. Gunpla is life. Gunpla will unite the world.

神映像過ぎてなけてきますよ

Wow..I've never built or had a Gunpla before! But just from watching this i feel like if i do buy and build one...i might get addicted! XD

Im surprized that its so easy to find gunpla here in alaska. There are two hobby stores and two comic book shops that hold them in my hometown.

I noticed some distinctly not-asian people in this video, does that mean we're getting models internationally again?

only if it's as readily available as what is portrayed here.

I wish I had huge piles of gunpla like that at... anywhere near me. I see a few from the last year or two at Barnes and Noble and that's it.

Gunpla,the hobby i got after all te story's of my gramps model history I got to know gunpla in 2018 and i started with nothing but scrap tools and a hg age-1,since that time i realized gunpla and gundam become more than anything for me,building gunpla in the middle of the night not realizing the time and working all nights on my customs or straight builds. Gunpla for me came out of my heart and love for robots and mecha and i have one thing to say to new builders or older builders Gunpla you build from the heart,let your mind do the work,nobody can stop you from saying it cannot be done,build and have fun and let other builders help you for mistakes made or advice for next time. Build gunpla and have fun,be expressive,let your gunpla idea's be heard and with pride.

Great, now release Build Fighters out of Japan.

한국인이면 손들고 좋아요ㄱ

Slowly started to get back into Gunpla again. Just need to buy some paints, airbrush with a compressor, and etc.

This is adorable, but wait until these kids actually watch the shows x-x
