The Undergated Network

Coop, Austen, CD & RickyGlues

The Undergated Network is a community built by builders, for builders.

Home of the Undergated Podcast and Newtype Notebook, we bring together conversations, stories, culture, and creativity from across the Gunpla and Plamo community. From deep dives into Gundam, anime, modeling, collecting, and the latest releases to conversations with builders, creators, and the people shaping the hobby, we’re here to spotlight the people behind the plastic.

The Undergated Network is more than a podcast. It’s a place for builders to connect, share, create, and have fun with the hobby we love.

For builders. By builders.
