Accessories

Rivals Corner's Accessories collection covers everything that finishes off a Gunpla build: Action Base display stands, option parts sets, water slide decals, LED units and detail-up parts from G-REWORK. These are the extras that turn a finished kit into a proper display piece, dynamic poses, extra colour, and cleaner panel lines. Free tracked UK shipping applies on orders over £99.

The Finishing Touches Your Kit Deserves

Rivals Corner stocks the range of action base display stands from Action Base 1 through 8, alongside option parts sets, water slide decals, LED units and third-party detail-up components from G-REWORK. None of this is optional filler. It's what actually gets a finished Gunpla kit onto a shelf looking the way it does on the box art.

Clip a kit onto an Action Base and dynamic mid-air poses become possible that a kit's own feet simply can't hold. Option parts sets swap in alternate hands, weapons and joints without needing a whole new kit. Water decals add panel markings and insignia a stock kit doesn't include. Rush a decal application and bubbles or misalignment show. Take your time and the extra detail genuinely elevates the finished build.

Which accessory's worth grabbing first? Action Base 8 Clear Colour is the single most-searched stand in this collection, a solid universal pick for most standard-scale kits. Action Base 4 Black covers the mid-size range for larger MG-scale builds. Gundam Option Parts Set Gunpla 04 (Build Hands Round Shape) swaps in alternate hand poses for more expressive display shots. Reddit's Gunpla communities treat a good Action Base as close to essential once you've built more than a couple of kits.

Building your first kit and need somewhere to start? Gunpla [All] covers the wider range these accessories support. Need tools before your next build? Tools & Supplies has nippers, cement and thinner ready to go.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is an Action Base and do I need one?

Action Base is Bandai's official display stand line, letting you pose a finished Gunpla kit in dynamic, mid-air positions its own feet can't support. It's not strictly required, but it's genuinely one of the most popular accessories among builders once a kit collection grows past a couple of pieces.

Which Action Base size do I need?

It depends on your kit's scale. Smaller numbers generally suit HG and RG-scale kits, while larger numbers (like Action Base 4 and above) are built for bigger MG and PG-scale builds. Check the specific product page for the scale range each Action Base supports before buying.

What are Gundam Option Parts Sets?

They're small accessory packs that add alternate hands, weapons, joints or poses to an existing kit, without needing to buy a whole new model. They're a cheap way to expand what a finished build can do.

What is G-REWORK?

G-REWORK is a third-party detail-up brand stocked alongside Bandai's own accessories, focused on decals and finishing details that add extra realism or customisation beyond what a stock kit includes.

Do I need decals to finish a Gunpla kit?

No, decals are entirely optional. Most kits already include panel lines and colour-separated plastic that look complete without them. Decals add extra insignia, warning labels or panel detail for builders who want to push the finished look further.
