If you’re new to Gunpla (Gundam Plastic Models) and are unsure of which to ones to get, we got a hold of a Bandai rep to explain the different grades. The video shows a walkthrough of 7 grades from entry grade to mega size. Here’s a quick reference:
- EG (Entry Grade) – 1/144 scale, MSRP: $10.00+
- HG (High Grade) – 1/144 scale, MSRP: $13.00+
- RG (Real Grade) – 1/144 scale, MSRP: $31.00+
- MG (Master Grade) – 1/100 scale, MSRP: $55.00+
- PG (Perfect Grade ) – 1/60 scale, MSRP: $296.00+
- MS (Mega Size) – 1/48 scale, MSRP: $92.00+
- SD (Super Deformed) – MSRP: $10.00
EG (Entry Grade) – beginners kit or “start here” model
HG (High Grade) – the vast majority of Gunpla models; “best bang for the buck”
RG (Real Grade) – HG in size, MG complexity (like high articulation & advanced frame)
MG (Master Grade) – larger than RG, smaller than PG; highly complex with hydraulics
PG (Perfect Grade) – pinnacle of Gunpla, a reference model with the highest engineering
MS (Mega Size) – biggest size, not as complex as Perfect Grade. Limited in number of models.
SD (Super Deformed) – “chibi” style, cute and fun
