Gundam Base Pop-up World Tour to arrive in Singapore this August

Gundam Base Pop-up World Tour lands in Singapore this August with exclusive kits and merchandise at Jewel Changi.

If you’re a Gundam fan, exciting news is on the horizon. The Gundam Base Pop-up World Tour is officially stopping in Singapore this August. Organised by Bandai Hobby, this travelling event is a celebration of Gunpla – the hobby of building plastic Gundam model kits – and promises to bring an exciting new and old experience for fans.

The Singapore leg of the tour will take place at the iconic Jewel Changi Airport from August 1 to August 10, 2025. This marks one of only two confirmed stops in Southeast Asia, making it a rare and must-visit opportunity for fans in the region.

What to expect from the Gundam Base pop-up

While full details haven’t been revealed yet, what we know is enough to build excitement. The Gundam Base Pop-up World Tour is expected to offer a wide selection of limited-edition kits, exclusive merchandise, and displays showcasing the artistry and variety of Gunpla models.

These pop-up events usually feature everything from beginner kits to complex builds, so whether you’re a seasoned collector or someone curious about starting to build your first model, there will be something for you.

Collectors can likely look forward to event-limited kits – special items produced in small batches, often unavailable outside official Gundam Base stores in Japan or select events worldwide. It’s the perfect chance to pick up something rare or one-of-a-kind.

A major stop for Southeast Asia fans

This event is part of Bandai Hobby’s larger plan to bring the Gundam Base experience to international audiences. Singapore has been chosen as one of the two stops in Southeast Asia, highlighting the strong fan base and growing popularity of Gunpla in the region.

Jewel Changi Airport is the perfect venue for such an event – not only because of its spacious interior and central location but also because it attracts locals and tourists. It’s a fitting place to host a showcase celebrating creativity, craftsmanship, and passion.

While many questions remain—such as which kits will be available, whether there will be guest appearances or workshops, and how exclusive the items will be—fans are advised to keep a close eye on announcements in the coming weeks. Bandai is expected to release more detailed information as the event draws near.

If you’ve ever wanted to experience the world of Gundam in a new and interactive way, this event is for you. Mark your calendar for August 1 to August 10, and make your way to Jewel Changi for this special occasion.
