SD Gundam Cross Silhouette (SDCS) is Bandai's line of affordable super-deformed Gundams. Each kit builds as a cute SD figure, and with a Cross Silhouette frame (sold separately) it becomes a taller, more heroic version.
This page lists every general-release SDCS kit, including two-kit sets and the Hello Kitty collaboration. Separate frames and boosters, and the many limited clear-color versions, are not included. Prices are Japan retail including tax.
Release dates are for Japan; US stock usually follows a few weeks later. Upcoming kits are also on the release tracker.
Bandai launched SD Gundam Cross Silhouette in June 2018 with the RX-78-2, Crossbone X1 and Nightingale. The big idea was the swappable frame: the same armor fits a short SD frame or a taller Cross Silhouette frame.
The line grew quickly through 2020, then slowed. Recent releases such as the Tornado Gundam, Calibarn and Mighty Strike Freedom come out about once a year.
