QUOTE(mhter.ji @ Nov 27 2016, 05:29 PM) hi, i'm new to gunpla. now doing research for their grade and price, what are the expected price range for: 1. SD 2. HG 3. RG 4. MG 5. PG Doesn't interested for limited or rare items, just want to know the regular prices for them. And which grade are the most popular among collectors? Would appreciate recommend online shop. Thanks! 1. rm20-50 2. rm40-100 3. rm80-150 4. rm100-300 5. rm400>> (more or less the same as theevilman) for modding HG is probably the best because so many kits available and also easy for beginner RG for better detailing in terms of small size, MG for those who want something bigger and more detail I wouldn't recommend PG for beginners but if u insist they're very large with a lot parts for better detail This post has been edited by D-y: Nov 27 2016, 06:10 PM

PG Doesn't interested for limited or rare items, just want to know the regular prices for them. And which grade are the most popular among collectors? Would appreciate recommend online shop. Thanks! Price is irrelevant actually because there is no fixed price for gunpla even for each grade because for example HG kit got lowest price as low as Rm25 and highest price would be Rm1k(HGUC Dendrobium) But if you mean good gunpla to buy and spend less money I could say SD kit and HG kit. Its usually less than Rm100. MG we rarely get more than RM300 so I dont know your budget preference. While PG is cost about RM450-900. RG typically maintain the price at 2500 yen but lately they break the price limit to become expensive (still below Rm200) For online shop, check the 1st page.

Yeap compare to last time at IPU, the stock still a lot even at Sunday. But sadly the Star Winning Expo total out of stock. The only 1 that i wanted the most... I think RX78 G3 also gone.. Didn't see any box around. This post has been edited by vkcy: Nov 28 2016, 07:52 AM

Price increase perhaps and not many good choices.
My friends who went there on Saturday said the crowd was not as appealing as it was during previous years at IPC.

Compared to previous years, it only held for one week.

It is about the same actually, it was held for around 10 days previously. QUOTE(Exiled_Gundam @ Nov 28 2016, 10:21 AM) Location as well.

Hopefully next year they will bring it back to IPC or a better location.

The only worthwhile kit is MG Delta Plus @ RM150, conversion rate at about 0.034. Everything else is at 0.041 or above rate, which u can find better pricing outside.

I also heard MG Exia Dark Matter is also good but sold out when I was there so no idea how much it was
