This is not the first time that Uniqlo and Gundam had a collaboration, but this is the second time that Bandai released a Uniqlo limited edition Gunpla kits for Free! Also, this is the first time that Uniqlo Philippines is part of free Uniqlo Gunpla kits.

I rushed to the Uniqlo Manila Flagship Store after work. I went straight to the Gundam UT shirts that are located at the second floor. I bought a Gunpla runner and Nu Gundam design shirt. According to the sales crew, there was a long line outside the store and all them are Gundam enthusiasts. 



For Gundam enthusiats, Uniqlo will be giving free kits starting June 8 to 14, 2020. Get your UT's and kits before its gone.
