Gundam, Strike, Wing Get Ukiyo-e Package Gunpla
Bandai Spirits Hobby Division released package images for three limited ENTRY GRADE Gunpla kits styled after ukiyo-e woodblock prints. The lineup covers the RX-78-2 Gundam, the Strike Gundam, and the Wing Gundam, each in a 1/144 scale with box art that renders the mobile suits in a traditional Japanese aesthetic. The kits also include new Japanese-pattern stickers featuring Mt. Fuji, cherry blossoms, and big waves, letting builders decorate the finished units. All three are scheduled for release on August 29, 2026. The RX-78-2 Gundam and Strike Gundam each carry a price of 1,430 yen, while the Wing Gundam is priced at 1,760 yen. The kits retain the ENTRY GRADE series' touch gate specification, which lets parts be removed by hand without nippers. The announcement follows a separate limited release of the ENTRY GRADE 1/144 Nu Gundam in a ukiyo-e package, which is priced at 1,760 yen and also launches on August 29. That kit is compatible with the armaments of the HGUC 1/144 RX-93 Nu Gundam.
