Gundam Models IV: Multiple Series
The following list catalogs every Gundam plastic model kit released to date, all of them produced by Bandai. With 400 kits released to date, Gundam plastic models constitute an industry unto themselves; they even have a nickname, "Gunpra" (itself derived from another bit of Japanese shorthand, "pramo" as in "plastic model"). The spellings used here are those given on the model boxes (in order to minimize confusion), and may not match those used elsewhere on this Web site.
Fortunately, Gundam plastic models are frequently re-released. With few exceptions - limited-edition metallic versions, the Gundam character collection, the Z Gundam editions of selected MSV kits - they're seldom out of stock for long. If your local hobby store doesn't have a good supply, check out the ads in your favorite anime magazine or see the online vendors listed on our links page.
This page of our Gundam Models listings covers toy and model lines that span multiple series. See Gundam Models I for series set during the classic One Year War era, Gundam Models II for other Universal Century series, and Gundam Models III for series set in alternate universes.
High Complete Model
These technically weren't models at all; they were actually pre-assembled, full-color, and highly durable toys. The line included robots from other shows - these were all the Gundam designs represented.

Sengoku-den
This trio of oddball kits was a spinoff of the immensely popular - but not otherwise covered on this Web site - Super Deformed Gundam line. These miniaturized parodies of Gundam's mobile suits, with teeny bodies and big heads, have spawned their own array of alternate universes, including one based on feudal Japan's era of warring states. These samurai-styled parodies were then scaled back up to normal size for this peculiar model line, released in 1989. All three kits featured System Injection color molding, metallic parts, and a novel skeletal system called "MS Joint."

High Grade
A bold experiment in high-tech model-making, this 1990 series included deluxe versions of the classic Gundams. As well as System Injection, the first two kits in the series used an "MS Joint II" skeletal system based on that used in the Sengoku-den kits. The ZZ Gundam, meanwhile, was essentially a plastic model version of the earlier High Complete Model. Both the Z Gundam and ZZ Gundam were fully transformable.

High Grade Universal Century
Launched in 1999 for Gundam's twentieth anniversary, this line of kits pays homage to the original series and its direct sequels with high-quality reproductions of classic mobile suits drawn from the Universal Century chronology. While the first two kits are from the original series, subsequent models will pay homage to Z Gundam and Gundam ZZ as well.

Limited Model
These crude, limited-mobility kits were the form of last resort for models that might otherwise never have been made at all. Molded in monochrome, and consisting of a few heavy pieces, they were nowhere near as colorful or poseable as regular Gundam kits. But there was no other way you'd get a model of Gundam W's Leo. The Limited Model series included robots and figures from Evangelion, Escaflowne, Final Fantasy and other popular series; the following were the Gundam items in the lineup.

Master Grade
This deluxe series of model kits was designed to absorb days of construction time, and the end result was a spectacular showpiece. Many of the models feature removable armor, so you can admire their detailed innards. Deluxe variants include the Crystal Versions, aimed specifically at hard-core modelers who wanted to play with see-through parts, and metallic Coating Versions released in honor of Gundam's twentieth anniversary, which also include figure models of their pilots.
Even for a line aimed at hard-core modelers to begin with, a few Master Grade models were extra-collectible. These, we're told, included the first-edition MS-14S Gelgoog (later editions corrected a couple of design flaws), and early MS-14A Gelgoog and RX-78GP01Fb Zephyranthes kits (which included full-color promotional booklets).
These classic mobile suits were redesigned for the Master Grade line by superstar mechanical designers Kunio Okawara and Hajime Katoki.

Perfect Grade
What's higher than High Grade, and more masterful than Master Grade? Bandai's 1/60 scale Perfect Grade series are truly the ultimate Gundam kits. These deluxe renditions of the classic mobile suits feature a complete set of removable armor, lovingly detailed internal mechanisms, and complete articulation via an array of realistic hydraulics. Two customization sets for the Gundam provide transparent armor parts and a light-up beam saber, and a pair of hyper bazookas and other extra weapons, respectively. The first Zaku customization set includes a bazooka and transparent armor parts.
