The 1/100 Gundam F90 Model Series (NGF90) is a line of Gunpla kits of the Mobile Suits from Mobile Suit Gundam F90, a manga prequel to Mobile Suit Gundam F91. The main gimmick of this line is the use of hardpoints, which enable unlimited customization between kits. As with higher-end Gunpla kits released in the early 1990s, the line's kits feature System Injection - also known as "Iropla" (イロプラ, "color plastic"), a process that molds multiple colors into one piece.[1]
Modelers refer to these kits as "Old kits" (旧キット Kyū kitto?) when comparing them to the more recent Premium Bandai exclusive Master Grade releases. Reissues of these kits can be distinguished from their original releases by their glossy box print (as opposed to the original's matte finish) and inclusion of plastic content information on the box's side flap. The reissues also omit the "ST" mark, as model kits are generally exempted from the requirements of the Japan Toy Association's Safety Toy (ST) Standard. In addition, reissues from 2019 onwards will bear the blue Bandai Spirits logo.
