In-Person Gunpla Class
Don't have the time or space to set up your own building station? You're in luck! Gundam Planet now has a dedicated workspace attached to its warehouse in Hackensack NJ!
We've always made it our mission to provide a one-stop-shop for hobby enthusiasts to bring everything in their imaginations to life. Although construction was delayed significantly by the pandemic, we were finally able to launch several pilot program classes where dozens of builders were able to learn the basics of model customization.
Now that we have a few reps under our belt, we're officially offering a Saturday Gunpla class! The class is led by an experienced instructor who will guide you through the process of building and painting your model kit. You can now reserve your spot online in advance!
Based on customer and instructor feedback, we've modified the class to be two 6-hour sessions rather than four 3-hour sessions. The class runs for two weeks, roughly the middle two of each month. During the final few hours of the course, you'll be able to put any finishing touches you like and get tips from the instructor on ways to take it to the next level!
Next class (UPDATED): May 2nd & 9th
Remaining spots: 2 spots still open
Session time: 11:30AM-6PM (with a break in the middle)
PLEASE READ: Students 16 years old and under require adult supervision during the class. Due to limited space for extra seats, only 4 spots are available for students 16 years old and under. If you are registering on behalf of someone under 16, you will need to supervise them during each class. No additional fee will be required, but please confirm in advance of registering that you will be present.
If you are interested, please contact Classes@GundamPlanet.com to receive all relevant details, reserve your spot, and schedule your class.
**In the interest of respecting the teacher's personal time, the next class dates will be determined when the current class reaches full enrollment. Thank you for your understanding!**
Cost for the class is $260 and includes the following:
- High Grade model to build and keep
- All paints used during class time
- Access to shared tools that you can use while on-site
- 12 hours of personal, guided instruction in a small-group setting

GP Spray Booth Availability on Weekdays (CURRENTLY CLOSED)
Want a space to paint but don't want to enroll in a class? No problem!
The spray booth setup is available for use from 2:00 PM to 7:00 PM on weekdays. It is equipped with an airbrush, ventilation system, and cleaner. While we have a selection of sanding sponges and starter tools available to use (and try before you buy), we recommend bringing your own preferred tools to get the most out of the space. Please note that you are responsible for cleaning and returning the station to its original condition after use.
The cost for using the spray booth is $15 per hour. If you'd like to stay for the entire day (5 hours), the rate becomes a flat fee of $50.
