The 2024 Bandai Spirits Hobby Exhibition is taking place at Aeon Mall in Binh Tan District, Ho Chi Minh City, showcasing a wide array of Gundam models.

The expo, which runs until Thursday next week, is attracting anime and Gundam fans.

Offering free admission, the event is treating visitors to multiple statues from popular Japanese anime series such as Gundam, Pokemon, One Piece, Yugioh!, and Dragon Ball.

The expo is also giving visitors a chance to participate in free model-building activities and take them home upon completion.

Since its opening on December 2, the expo has welcomed some 3,000 visitors.

Notably, the entries to the Gunpla Builders World Cup 2024 by Vietnamese candidates are being displayed at the exhibition area of the event.

The organizer of the expo highly valued these entries and predicted that some would be sent to Japan as Vietnam’s representatives for the competition.
