More about the Aoshima Japan Ideon Gundam kit models from the 1980`s:
Aoshima Ideon Gundam series plastic model kits made of conventional plastic polymers were first relased in November 1980 in 1/420 scale. A Full-fledged series expansion in February of 1981 was initially sold in Japan Model Toy stores for 300 yen: the Gundam 144. The Ideonshirizu Gundam series proved very popular in Japan in the 80`s. It was at this time also that the Gundam Mobile Suits was also introduced and remains one of the more popular and collectable of the series.
By popular demand, the theater version, the 600 Mobile series in the standardized scale from the designer Tamotsu Shigeru was released in July 1982 with an enemy warship called Soroshippu 2600. Scale models of these Viral Gin enemy warship models proved to be the last when the final version of the Gin enemy warship became impossible to standardize in a scale model from the original animated series. The original 1 / 20000 scale kit, designed by Alii and named the Zentoradi battleship, along with the military character models in the new reduced sale of 1/600 became the successful new "Anime Series" scale. Most kits in the 80`s adapted this new "Anime-Scale". An improved plastic polymer allowed for more moving parts, increasing the range and popularity of new versions in the new scale.
Other assembly kit Models were spinned off separately from Aoshima resulted from the commerial success of the Movie Gund Roi in 1982 included the TV Buff Clan fighters from the series " Bow Gond " " the Row Guadal Battleship", " Balme / Bram Than models " and "Gadomowa ".
Prior to the faithful reproduction sets of this model series, the main character product was the Aoshima Robot "Union" and this series, the Ideon Robot 1/600 scale model made from the new special plastic polymers. The Aoshima 1/600 series was seen as a very different a very unique concept at the time of release in the early 80`s .
