ZZ Gundam Super Deformed DDC Resin Kit

This ZZ Gundam resin kit by B-Club's  includes lots of little sculpted details like hoses and cables. Visually this makes the kit similar to the Makoto Kobayashi-inspired Gundam kits of the era, a comparison that wasn't lost on B-Club when they suggested modellers could easily convert them into Kobayashi-type models in B-Club #40.

B-Club's Designers Deform Collection Series (DDC Series)

B-Club's DDC series covered a wide range of Gundam anime series from the original TV show to the then-new OVA Gundam 0080: War in the Pocket. Each mobile suit was presented in a "super deformed" style, but unlike contemporary plastic model kits these DDC resin kits had extra details such as hoses and verniers sculpted in that plastic models couldn't match. They typically also didn't have the big cartoon eyes that were common with SD versions of Gundam's mobile suits (with a few exceptions – lookin' at you, Gundam MK-III). 

With only a handful of big, chunky resin pieces for each model and relatively clean casting, these kits can be a good way of getting your feet wet with resin kits.
