Gundam Modeling Label Holder, Process Marker Holder, with Symbol Stickers, PMKJ011, Plate Tracking Label Clip 10PCS for Gundam Model Kits...

These clips serve as an effective tool for assembling Gunpla models, exhibiting both strength and compatibility with the edges of standard runners. The stickers adhere well, and the brands logo is elegantly embossed. However, the primary issue is the cost: at $20 for only ten clips, they offer limited coverage, sufficient for High Grade (HG) and some Real Grade (RG) kits. Additionally, the presence of stickers reduces the versatility of each clip, as many kits feature runners with both letters and numbers (e.g., A1 and A2). Consider the Master Grade (MG) Jegan, a relatively standard and modern MG Gunpla kit. This kit includes runners labeled A1, A2, B, C, two D1s, two D2s, E, F1, F2, G1, G2, H1, H2, I, J1, J2, and MP, totaling 19 runners (excluding the beam saber runner). To adequately label its runners with these clips, one would need two sets, costing almost as much as the kit itself. In contrast, for the same price, one could purchase hundreds of binder clips that would fulfill the same function. While the products utility might justify a price range of $5 to $10, the current price is disproportionately high. These clips are intended to help organize model parts and prevent loss, making the assembly process more efficient. They can also be used to alphabetize journals or notes for various projects. Traditionally, I have used pieces of tape with handwritten numbers to identify runners. This clip set eliminates that need. The clips are small, approximately one inch square, and come with a sheet of number and letter stickers sufficient to mark A-Z and 1-9. However, with only ten clips per set, a large model might require additional sets. The quality of the clips is decent, featuring sturdy metal springs that should ensure durability with proper care. The set includes two complete sets of stickers for A-Z and six sets of the numbers 1 and 2. The stickers are paper and, as the instructions indicate, are not reusable. Nonetheless, creating new labels would not be difficult, and the set includes 16 blank labels for this purpose. Overall, this is a neat addition to any workbench, albeit unnecessary. It could make an enjoyable gift for the modeler who already has an extensive collection of tools.

These are a good tool for building gunpla- they're strong, fit well over the edge of a standard runner, the stickers apply nicely, and they're nicely embossed with the brand's logo, but the problem is the price. For 20 dollars, you only get 10 clips, which only really covers HGs and some RGs. Plus, due to the fact they're stickered, each clip is less versatile than they could be, since lots of kits will have numbered runners in addition to their letters (like A1 and A2, for instance.) The MG Jegan is a pretty standard and modern MG gunpla kit, so can this product adequately help you label its runners? Well, the MG Jegan contains runners labelled A1, A2, B, C, two D1, two D2, E, F1, F2, G1, G2, H1, H2, I, J1, J2, and MP (not counting the beam saber runner), totalling 19 runners. For a standard, not-too-complex MG kit, you'd need to buy two of this product, and at the price point, you're almost paying as much as the kit itself would cost. For the same price, you can get hundreds of binder clips, which can accomplish the same task. Maybe for $5 to $10, I can see this product's utility matching the cost, but you're paying far too much for far too little.

My husband loves models and he really didn't think this would be useful, but now he is SO happy to have it The quality is nice and sturdy, the labels are clear and easy to read and it helps him keep he pieces organized, which has made model building more fun for him overall

This keeps model pieces organized and easy to find when building models

I had no idea that such a product as this even existed, what a great find! Our son loves to build Gundum models. Some of these models have many sheets of tiny parts and the numbers and letters used to identify the sheet you need are very small. These clips might be the solution since they clip onto the sheets of parts and have larger numbers and letters. This is a very clever product and if you are a model enthusiast it might come in very handy.
