The Bandai Action Base 8 in Clear Color is a display stand designed specifically for 1/100 scale plastic model kits, such as Master Grade Gunpla. It features a cylindrical base and a hexagon socket head bolt that locks the support arm at the desired angle, ensuring stable posing for both grounded and airborne displays. Assembly requires no screwdriver thanks to included wrench parts, and the clear color blends with any model.
