Applications run from November 4, 2026 at 12:00 to November 15 at 23:59. Winners must follow the official X account, repost the campaign post, and file the application form. Monitors build the free sample and post the build process at least twice and a finished review once on X by December 14.
Applicants must live in Japan, receive the sample inside Japan, keep a public X account, and build and post within the deadline. Minors need parental consent, and applications are limited to one per person. Aoshima notifies winners by direct message between November 16 and November 18, with replies due November 20 at 11:59. The sample kit and shipping are free, but monitors supply their own tools, paints, and adhesives. Painting is optional, so straight builds qualify.
