ABOUT

We’re the team behind Top Gunpla, San Diego’s dedicated in-person Gunpla competition and celebration event. Hosted in a real aircraft hangar across from the iconic Top Gun filming location, our event brings together Gundam fans, master builders, and passionate newcomers for a full day of creativity, craftsmanship, and community.

This isn’t just a contest—it’s a live tribute to the art of Gunpla, with builder showcases, special guests, hands-on activities, and a high-flying celebration of the Gundam universe. Whether you're here to compete, admire, learn, or connect, Top Gunpla is where your love for Mobile Suits gets to shine.

But we’re more than just one day a year, we’re a year-round hub for Gundam fans in Southern California and beyond. 

Whether you’re customizing your next kit, debating Newtypes, or reliving UC timelines, we’ve got a place for you here.

Top Gunpla is proud to be growing a vibrant Gunpla community in San Diego, and we can’t wait to build something unforgettable with you.

Gunpla is freedom. Always.
