The next Gundam anime, titled Mokei Senshi Gunpla Builders Beginning G, will be about gunpla (the practice of building Gundam models) instead of the actual fighting mechas.

Mokei Senshi Gunpla Builders Beginning G is going to be a three part series with part A premiering at the Gundam Super Expo Event (which will broadcast on Japanese TV in the summer) and the parts B and C will be released accordingly.

A manga series will also run in Kerekero Ace magazine starting in their August issue.

I think this is an interesting anime concept for the Gundam franchise but will it work? All these years fans are used to seeing Gundams in combat but now they are just mere models. Even the chibi-fied Gundam anime SD Gundam Force had some fighting. What do guys think of this?
