MG Gundam Vidar Pre-Cut Masking Paper & Etchings Precision Upgrade Kit for Bandai MG 1/100 ASW-G-XX — Laser-Cut Washi Masking Sticker (4 Sheets) + Stainless Steel Detail Etchings with Standable Nameplate

What's This Product

Building the Bandai MG 1/100 ASW-G-XX Gundam Vidar — the first Master Grade kit from Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans, featuring an updated Gundam Frame, expanded shoulder articulation, and simulated recoil handguns? NEWC Pro Pre-Cut Studio delivers two precision-engineered upgrades designed exclusively for this kit: laser-cut pre-cut masking paper (4 sheets) for clean, professional color separation across the dark armor and mechanical surfaces, and stainless steel detail etchings — including a standable foldable nameplate — that add micro-scale realism to the head, armor, weapons, and display base.

This product contains only upgrade accessories — the MG 1/100 Gundam Vidar model kit itself is not included.

Laser-Cut Masking for Dark Armor Color Separation

• The MG Gundam Vidar's signature dark purple and black armor demands precise color separation to bring out the mechanical panel lines, thruster vents, and frame details beneath. The 4-sheet masking set is laser-traced from the actual kit part contours, covering shoulder binders, chest armor, waist, leg thrusters, and weapon grips. Letter-coded sections let you tear and apply without scissors, while the medium-high adhesion washi paper stays secure during spraying and peels off residue-free for razor-sharp borders.
• Four full sheets provide complete coverage for the entire model — from the head and chest to the waist armor and leg thrusters. The Vidar's dark color scheme makes clean paint separation especially critical, and this set is engineered to deliver professional results on every surface.

Stainless Steel Detail Realism with Standable Nameplate

• Replace flat plastic surfaces with precision-etched stainless steel parts. The etching set covers key areas — head crest details, chest logos, armor panel textures, and weapon accents — transforming the standard MG build with metallic sharpness that plastic alone cannot achieve.
• A unique addition: the included standable foldable nameplate lets you display "ASW-G-XX GUNDAM VIDAR" beside your completed build, adding a premium presentation touch. A placement diagram maps every piece to its exact position on the kit.

Engineered for the First IBO Master Grade

• Both upgrades are designed specifically for the MG Vidar's unique 1/100 proportions and updated Gundam Frame structure — including the expanded shoulder joints, heel blade deployment mechanisms, and Alaya-Vijnana cockpit system details.
• Whether you're replicating the stealth-dark Vidar color scheme or experimenting with custom paintwork, the masking paper and etchings maintain visual consistency across every surface. The included guides make application straightforward — no guesswork required.

How to Use

Masking Paper

1. Identify Sections — Use the letter-coded guide to tear along designated lines. Each section corresponds to a specific model part.
2. Apply to Parts — Press masks firmly onto model pieces before spray painting. Ensure full contact with the surface.
3. Paint & Peel — Once paint is fully dry, carefully peel off masks to reveal crisp, professional-grade color separation lines.

Etchings

1. Locate Positions — Follow the included placement diagram to identify where each etching piece goes (head, armor, weapons, nameplate).
2. Glue Carefully — Apply a small amount of model cement (not included) to the back of each etching piece. Handle small parts with tweezers — edges are sharp. Press firmly into position and allow glue to cure fully.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Does this product include the MG Gundam Vidar model kit?

No. This is an upgrade accessory kit only — it contains pre-cut masking paper and/or stainless steel etchings. You need to purchase the Bandai MG 1/100 ASW-G-XX Gundam Vidar model kit separately.

Q: Is this compatible with the HG Gundam Vidar or MG Kimaris Trooper?

No. These accessories are designed exclusively for the MG 1/100 ASW-G-XX Gundam Vidar released in March 2025. The HG version is a different scale, and the MG Kimaris Trooper has different armor geometry — the masking contours and etching dimensions will not align correctly. Each NEWC Pro Pre-Cut product is kit-specific.

Q: How many masking paper sheets are included?

The masking paper set includes 4 sheets of laser-cut imported washi paper. The MG Gundam Vidar has extensive color separation areas across the dark armor, shoulder binders, waist, and leg thrusters — 4 sheets provide full coverage for the entire model.

Q: What's included with the etching set?

The etching set includes stainless steel detail pieces for the head, armor panels, weapons, and mechanical textures — plus a standable foldable nameplate displaying "ASW-G-XX GUNDAM VIDAR" for display alongside your completed build. A placement diagram is included to guide installation.

Q: Do I need any special tools to use the masking paper?

No special tools beyond your standard spray painting setup. The masking paper is pre-cut and letter-coded — just tear along the lines and apply. You will need spray paint (not included) and a well-ventilated painting area.

Q: What glue should I use for the etchings?

Standard plastic model cement (such as Tamiya Cement or Mr. Cement) works well. Apply a small amount to the back of each etching piece. Handle the small parts with tweezers — the stainless steel edges can be sharp.

Q: Can I use the masking paper with a hand brush instead of spray paint?

The masking paper is designed for spray painting, which provides the cleanest results. Hand brushing over masking paper may cause paint to seep under the edges. If you do hand brush, use thin coats and let each coat dry fully before applying the next.

Q: Is the bundle option worth it compared to buying separately?

The bundle saves you $5 compared to purchasing the masking paper and etchings individually. It's the best value if you plan to use both upgrades — the masking paper handles the paint work while the etchings and nameplate add metal detail finishing and display presentation. If you only need one type of upgrade, individual options are available.
