🎉 It’s opening day for the BHCPDII Museum!
The (take a breath) Bandai Hobby Center Plamo Design Industrial Institute Museum — or BHCPDII — opens its doors to visitors from today. In an unusual move, tickets are exclusive to Japanese residents who hold a P-Bandai account. Initially sold by lottery, then on a first-come-first-served basis. It does look wonderful though, and offers a fresh insight into Bandai’s latest plastic model design and production processes.
