Calling all Gundam fans and Gunpla enthusiasts in Singapore: The Gundam Base Singapore will open its doors on Feb 3.
Get ready to snap up Gundam model kits – including limited-edition and hard-to-find releases – across multiple grades, all in one place at Jewel Changi Airport. This marks the very first Singapore outlet for The Gundam Base, a popular retail concept selling model kits and products related to the mecha franchise Gundam.

Here, fans can look forward to Gundam model exhibits, interactive build experiences and loads of Gundam merchandise. There will even be a 1.8m tall RX-78 Gundam statue at the store's entrance.
Inside, you can also take photos with a large blueprint of the RX-78-2 Gundam.
For beginners who are curious about the Gundam franchise and model kit-building, fret not if all this seems overwhelming.
The Gundam Base Singapore will also have a dedicated workshop area that's designed especially for newcomers. During the weekends, this model-building workshop will be free to the public.
