FIRST TIME? 
Description
This is a posable, Master-Grade injection-plastic kit of an item from the Gundam universe.
Of course every Master Grade release is exciting, but this one might be a little more special because it's the first MG release from the newest Gundam anime series, Gundam AGE. Dubbed the AGE-1 Normal this suit, belonging to the show's protagonist, is quite the model kit. Bandai has designed this kit to be extremely articulate and included a lot of details even down to the DODS rifle and shield. Plenty of hand parts are included so you can give your AGE-1 the pose you want and a generous supply of marking stickers, along with dry transfers, are included.

Assembly Guide
Skill Level 2:
Easy to Complete
Skill Level 2 kits require basic plastic model assembly techniques, such as cutting parts from the runners, and cutting or sanding away the remains of the gates (the place where the part was connected to the runner). Some kits in this level also provide stickers for some markings. Most level 2 kits do not require cement or paint, but be sure to read any additional information provided to be sure. To nicely complete a level 2 kit, you will want to have a pair of plastic nippers for cutting parts from the runners, and a fine file, sandpaper or hobby knife for cleaning the gates. In some cases, a pair of tweezers makes applying stickers easier. Most adults with no prior modeling experience would have no trouble completing a kit of skill level 2. Parents would probably want to assist younger children with a kit of this level if they have never built one before.
No Cement Required
This item does not require the use of cement to complete. Some modelers prefer to use cement on snap-together kits in order to fix them into a particular pose, or make a joint more secure. However, this is not required to complete these kits.
No Painting Required
This item does not require painting.
Either the item is completely pre-painted, such as an action figure or other completed figure, or it is molded in the colors of the finished item so that it appears natural after you have assembled it. Note that kits which are molded in their final colors will always look better when painted, even if this is not required. At the very least, a light coat of flat clear spray will make a science-fiction kit look much less toy-like after assembly. The same goes for some action figures as well.
