The official Gunpla fan community "BUILDERS NOTE" will launch a new initiative, the Builders Note "Gunpla Resale Meeting," starting May 12th (Tuesday), to incorporate fan voices into resale considerations.
Over the 47-year history since the broadcast of "Mobile Suit Gundam" in 1979, countless mobile suits have been created, and Gunpla has grown into an enormous lineup. For each of these, there are builders who have the desire to "build." The starting point of the Gunpla Resale Meeting is to continuously understand "who wants which kit now" through the Builders Note, the official Gunpla fan community platform, and to create a system that delivers kits to those who want to build them. This initiative further develops previous efforts like the Resale General Election and decisive votes, and we will experimentally nurture it together with fans from this platform.
■ Mechanism of the Resale Meeting
What is important in the Gunpla Resale Meeting is the design where "the voices of builders who are actually building Gunpla reach the decision-making process for resale kits as important considerations." Continuously understanding which kits builders truly want to build from the vast lineup of kits. This accumulation is the foundation of the Gunpla Resale Meeting.
The Gunpla Resale Meeting will be held four times a year (Spring, Summer, Autumn, Winter). For each session, a "Selection Election" voting event will be held monthly to narrow down resale candidate kits. The Selection Election will change themes each time, focusing on a wide range of Gundam and Gunpla works and brands. By voting for the kits you want to build from the candidate kits, you can convey your voice for the kits you want to be resold.
Tickets that can be used for voting can be earned through activities within Builders Note (such as daily production records and missions). This design ensures that the voices of builders who are actually building Gunpla are more easily reflected. Voting results will be aggregated and organized through Builders Note and shared as a basis for resale consideration.
*Please note that kits with a high number of votes are not guaranteed to be resold, but the voices of fans will be organized, aggregated, and delivered as important decision-making material for resale consideration.
*Only general distribution kits are planned to be eligible for voting.

*Due to the app release schedule, the 2026 fiscal year Gunpla Resale Meeting is planned to be held three times (Summer, Autumn, Winter).
■ Purchase Method: Adopting a lottery system "to deliver to those who want to build"
We want to introduce a design philosophy into Builders Note for Gunpla resale where the voices of builders who continuously build Gunpla are heard. This is the design philosophy aimed for with this lottery sale.
When a resale is decided, you will be notified of the purchase opportunity in advance. In the lottery, a system has been adopted where the more voting tickets you earn through posting production records and app missions and cast them for a target kit, the higher your chances of winning that kit. Participation, from voting to lottery application, can all be done within the Builders Note app.
*Kits for which resale has been decided will also be sold through general distribution in addition to the lottery sale within Builders Note. Delivery times and in-store sales timings may differ.
