GunPla fans in North America have even more to celebrate as Bandai has officially announced two brand new permanent THE GUNDAM BASE locations coming to the United States in fall 2026.
Following the successful launch of THE GUNDAM BASE Chicago in 2025, the official GunPla specialty store is continuing its expansion with new locations at Mall of America in Minneapolis, Minnesota, and Westfield Southcenter in Seattle, Washington. The move marks another major step in bringing the Gundam hobby closer to fans across North America.
While exact opening dates have not yet been revealed, Bandai has confirmed that more information will be shared in the coming months. This includes opening celebration events and exclusive limited edition GunPla that will be available to mark the grand openings.
For fans who have been hoping for more official Gundam shopping destinations outside of Chicago, this announcement is another exciting sign that THE GUNDAM BASE continues to grow across North America. If you've ever wanted to experience one of Bandai's dedicated GunPla stores without flying overseas, your chance may be closer than ever.
More details will be announced as the fall 2026 openings draw nearer.
