Where to Buy Maschinen Krieger Kits
Where to Buy Maschinen Krieger Kits (Without the Headache)
If you’ve just discovered Maschinen Krieger—also known as Ma.K—you might be wondering where to actually buy the kits. Between Japanese exclusives, out-of-print toolings, and rare imports, finding Ma.K kits can feel like hunting a unicorn in a scrapyard.
But don’t worry. You’re in the right place.
✅ Your Best Bet? Buy Direct from a Trusted Builder
I’m Lincoln Wright, a studio-trained Ma.K modeler who’s worked directly with Kow Yokoyama Sensei. I run Paint on Plastic, where I stock curated kits, exclusive bundles, and officially licensed model guides—many of which are only available here.
✅ Kits are authentic, brand new, fully licensed, and directly sourced from the original manufacturers
✅ Bundles often include bonus lore in English or early-access releases
✅ Our books and guides are officially Ma.K-approved canon—created in partnership with Yokoyama Sensei and only available direct
✅ You support the creator—not a faceless warehouse

⚠️ What About eBay, HLJ, or Other Retailers?
You can find Ma.K kits elsewhere:
-
eBay – often overpriced or repackaged
-
HLJ – reliable but limited stock windows
-
Mandarake / AmiAmi – decent for rare kits, but no added content or context
But those sources don’t offer:
-
English-language guides
-
Exclusive canon builds
-
Bonus parts, lore inserts, or early digital drops
-
Direct support or studio-level insight
That’s why many builders now choose to buy direct from the creator. You get the full Ma.K experience—not just the plastic.
📦 Do You Ship Internationally?
Yes—we ship worldwide from Australia.
Every order is packed by hand in our Sydney studio, by real modelers who know these kits inside and out.
🔰 Recommended Starter Kits (For New Builders)
If you’re new to the Ma.K universe, here’s where I recommend starting:
-
MK44 Suits – Some of the best builds out there, with fantastic scale, engineering, and weathering potential
-
WAVE Suits – Recent releases have excellent fit and finish, and even the classic A.F.S. kits are a joy to build
-
Falke Variants – A big canvas and a bold build. Still one of the best sci-fi kits I’ve ever made

🎨 Bonus: Learn the Studio Hybrid Painting Method
My exclusive painting guides present two key approaches:
-
The original Japanese studio method, taught to me by master builders inside Yokoyama’s official circle
-
And my own hybrid system, developed over years of combining the best of Western and Japanese modeling traditions
These are deep-dive, start-to-finish guides designed to help you level up your painting, weathering, and storytelling—no matter what your background is.
