These kits bridge the gap between High Grade simplicity and Master Grade intricacy, providing complete skeletal frames with detailed joint mechanisms while streamlining armor construction and reducing overall part counts for satisfying builds that reward patience without overwhelming builders with excessive complexity.
The 1/100 Full Mechanics GAT-X370 Raider Gundam from Mobile Suit Gundam SEED brings the Earth Alliance's transformable mobile armor to premium scale with complete inner frame construction and authentic transformation mechanisms. This kit showcases Raider's distinctive design with its mobile suit mode featuring the characteristic head unit, beam rifle armament, and shield equipment, plus full transformation capability into mobile armor flight mode with extended wings and streamlined profile. The inner frame provides realistic joint articulation with ball joints in shoulders and hips, double joints at elbows and knees, and torso rotation enabling dynamic combat poses in both modes. Color-separated parts reproduce Raider's gray, red, and yellow color scheme with minimal sticker reliance, while panel line detail molded into armor surfaces adds mechanical depth. The transformation mechanism uses sliding panels, rotating joints, and reconfiguring limbs that demonstrate engineering sophistication while maintaining stability in both configurations.
The 1/48 Full Mechanics MAILeS Kenbu from Kyoukai Senki (Rumble Garanndoll) delivers the anime's distinctive mecha design in impressive large scale with complete inner frame and detailed mechanical construction. Standing significantly taller than 1/100 scale kits when completed, the 1/48 format provides enhanced surface detail, larger parts for easier handling, and impressive shelf presence that commands attention in any display. The Kenbu features the series' characteristic design aesthetic with angular armor plating, detailed cockpit area, signature weapons including beam rifle and shield, and articulation throughout enabling the dynamic action poses seen in the anime. The inner frame construction showcases realistic mechanical joints, hydraulic details, and structural elements visible through armor gaps, while color-separated plastic reproduces the mecha's distinctive color scheme without requiring extensive painting.
The 1/48 Full Mechanics MAILeS Kenbu Zan expands the Kyoukai Senki lineup with an enhanced variant featuring additional equipment, modified armor configuration, and specialized weaponry that differentiates it from the standard Kenbu. This kit maintains the 1/48 scale advantages of impressive size and enhanced detail while introducing variant-specific design elements including modified head unit, additional armor panels, upgraded weapon systems, and color scheme variations. The complete inner frame ensures compatibility with standard Kenbu parts for customization possibilities, while the streamlined Full Mechanics construction philosophy keeps assembly manageable despite the large scale and detailed engineering. The Kenbu Zan demonstrates Full Mechanics' versatility across different mecha properties beyond Gundam, proving the construction system works effectively for various mechanical designs and aesthetic styles.
All Full Mechanics kits feature complete skeletal inner frames that serve as the foundation for armor attachment and articulation systems. These frames include detailed joint mechanisms with realistic proportions, mechanical details like pistons and hydraulics visible through armor gaps, and structural elements that mirror real-world mechanical engineering principles. The frame construction typically uses gray or dark gray plastic with molded panel lines and mechanical textures, creating visual interest even before armor installation. Ball joints in major connection points provide wide range of motion, while ratchet joints in weight-bearing areas like hips and ankles ensure stable posing with heavy armor and weapons. The frame assembly process teaches fundamental Gunpla construction techniques including part separation, joint installation, and structural integrity considerations that transfer to more advanced grades.
Full Mechanics kits achieve their balance between detail and accessibility through engineering choices that reduce complexity without sacrificing visual impact. Armor pieces use larger parts with integrated details rather than multiple small components, undergated connections hide attachment points for clean final appearance, and color separation through plastic molding minimizes sticker and paint requirements. The part counts typically range from one hundred fifty to three hundred pieces depending on kit complexity and scale, significantly lower than comparable Master Grade kits while maintaining similar final detail density. Instruction manuals provide clear assembly guidance with numbered steps, exploded diagrams, and color-coded part callouts that make construction straightforward even for builders new to premium grades. The streamlined approach enables completion in eight to fifteen hours for most kits, offering satisfying weekend projects that deliver impressive results without multi-week time commitments.
The 1/100 scale Full Mechanics kits stand approximately seven to eight inches tall when completed, providing substantial display presence while remaining manageable for standard shelving and display cases. This scale matches Master Grade kits, enabling mixed displays with consistent proportions and visual coherence. The 1/48 scale MAILeS kits reach approximately twelve to fourteen inches in height, delivering impressive shelf presence that commands attention and showcases mechanical details at larger format. The increased size makes panel lines, mechanical details, and surface textures more visible from viewing distance, while the substantial weight and presence create premium display pieces that anchor collections. Both scales benefit from the larger format's ability to incorporate more sophisticated articulation, detailed mechanical elements, and realistic proportions compared to smaller scales.
Full Mechanics serves builders seeking premium construction experiences without the intimidation factor of traditional Master Grade complexity. The complete inner frames satisfy builders who appreciate visible mechanical engineering and realistic construction, while the streamlined armor assembly prevents overwhelming part counts that can discourage less experienced builders. The kits work excellently as progression steps for builders who have mastered High Grade construction and want to explore premium grades before committing to full Master Grade complexity. Experienced builders appreciate Full Mechanics as quicker alternatives to Master Grade when seeking satisfying builds without extensive time investment, while the engineering quality and final results rival more complex grades for display purposes.
Full Mechanics kits complement broader Bandai Gundam collections through shared scales and compatible display aesthetics. The 1/100 scale matches Master Grade proportions enabling mixed displays that show different construction approaches to similar scales, while the mechanical detail density ensures Full Mechanics kits hold their own alongside more complex builds. Display with Action Base stands for dynamic aerial poses, enhance with Builder's Parts accessories for additional customization, or integrate into comprehensive Gundam showcases spanning multiple grades and series. The Full Mechanics line's focus on specific series like Iron-Blooded Orphans and SEED enables focused collection building around favorite shows with premium construction quality.
