The 1/100 High Grade Endless Waltz Model Series (HGEW) is a line of Gunpla kits of the Mobile Suits from New Mobile Report Gundam Wing: Endless Waltz, released from 1997 to 1998. Each kit comes with a 1/20 scale character figure.[1]
Reissues of these kits can be distinguished from their original releases by their glossy box print (as opposed to the original's matte finish) and inclusion of plastic content information on the box's side flap. The reissues also omit the "ST" mark, as model kits are generally exempted from the requirements of the Japan Toy Association's Safety Toy (ST) Standard. In addition, reissues from 2019 onwards will bear the blue Bandai Spirits logo.
