About Our Store
What kind of products does Bandai Sales Store specialize in?
We specialize in premium mecha, anime, and custom model kits from top brands like Bandai. Our collection includes 30 Minute Missions, 30 Minute Sisters, Armored Core, Frame Arms, and popular anime series like Dragon Ball and Digimon. We cater to both casual builders and serious hobbyists.
What makes your store different from other model kit retailers?
We combine fast worldwide shipping with a builder-focused approach. Every kit undergoes quality inspection before shipping, and we offer flexible delivery options to suit different needs and budgets. As fellow enthusiasts, we understand the excitement of unboxing a new kit and have optimized our process accordingly.
Product Questions
Are your model kits official Bandai products?
We primarily carry official Bandai kits, but also offer select high-quality third-party kits (clearly marked in our 3rd Party Kits section). All products are carefully vetted for quality and authenticity.
Do you carry limited edition or hard-to-find kits?
Yes! We frequently stock rare and limited edition items like Maschinen Krieger and exclusive Hexa Gear releases. These tend to sell out quickly, so we recommend signing up for our newsletter to get restock notifications.
Are the kits suitable for beginners?
We cater to all skill levels! Our 30 Minute Missions and Little Armory lines are perfect for beginners, while Frame Arms and Armored Core offer more advanced building experiences. Each product page indicates the recommended skill level.
