With the release of the hit film "Gundam SEED Freedom" in 2024, a new era in Gundam modeling began, marked by the introduction of the SEED action system. This system marks a substantial breakthrough in the design and functionality of Gundam models, also known as GunPla, by improving their posability and dynamic display capabilities.

In line with the new cinematic experience, the SEED action system was created to transfer the high-octane action of "Gundam SEED Freedom" into the physical models. The technique was designed to allow fans to more realistically recreate the dynamic stances and combat scenes seen in the film, bridging the gap between on-screen action and at-home modeling.

Key Features of the SEED Action System

The SEED action system introduces several innovations that elevate the building and display experience:

Advanced Articulation: Models equipped with this system feature enhanced joint mechanisms, allowing for superior flexibility and a wider range of motion. This enables the Gundam to strike more complex and dramatic poses, mimicking their cinematic counterparts.

Improved Stability: These models are often equipped with redesigned stands and support systems that facilitate the maintenance of dynamic poses over time, especially when displaying models with heavier armaments.

Enhanced Detailing: Despite the focus on functionality, the aesthetic aspect of the models remains uncompromised. The kits released after the movie continue to showcase meticulous detail and craftsmanship, capturing the intricate designs of the Gundam units from the film.

Since its launch, the SEED action system has established new standards in the GunPla community. It has not only improved the interactive component of model building, but has also driven manufacturers to constantly develop in order to meet the demands of both builders and collectors.

The SEED action system is an amazing turning point in the GunPla universe that has altered how fans interact with their models. It enables builders to delve further into the universe of Gundam, providing a more fascinating and rewarding hobby experience. For both veterans and newbies, the SEED action system expands the possibilities for creativity and enjoyment when making and presenting Gundam models.
