Gunpla Multiconnect Mount
Description
PDFRemixed a wall mount for Gundam models. I added multiple connector points, slimmed it down, shortened it, and added a Multiconnect rail to the back. Compatible with both Honeycomb Storage Wall and Multiboard, using Multiconnect V2. I originally oriented my wall to match GunplaMark's arm mounts, but I could never get them to be tight enough or to ratchet properly, so for some of my kits I'm using this design instead. I didn't want to move my HSW around at this point so I made a bunch of different designs, one that's specifically for this orientation and two others that are more general.
I printed mine all in PETG for minimal shrinkage and to match what I used for my storage walls. If you print in PLA the mounting holes for the stand attachments might be too tight, so watch out for that.
2025/9/13 Update:
My K2+ apparently isn't calibrated properly since my holes are all actually not right. My A1 prints them as designed but they're coming out too small on my K2+ without some X-Y Hole compensation. All the holes in all the models and the corresponding pegs have been resized to be 7.1mm holes and 7mm pegs. I've tested with MG action base 7mm connectors and the printed connectors and they seem to fit alright now, so I've replaced all the original files.
On my K2, I've set the compensation to 0.1 but it could be tighter. YMMV.
I recommend printing a peg and the size tester file to check before making a mount.
The Mounts:
The mounts all print the same way. Stand surface down with no supports, so the side your model will sit on will be on the bed.
"Short-GM” needs THREE multiconnect inserts, in a triangle shape. This is to keep the stand from spinning. See the photos for what this looks like.
“Short” is the same as short but can sit on two multiconnects aligned vertically. I haven't tried this one myself yet.
“Long” sits on two multiconnects. I tend to add one multiconnect at the top and one at the bottom to keep it from rotating.
“Big Hex” has a hexagonal pad at the end, and it's about 300 mm long. I designed it for a very specific case and I'm not even sure if it's useful to anyone but me. It has mount points all the way back and 5 on the hexagon pad itself.
The Pegs:
The holes are as the original design, and fit the 7.35mm peg for the base piece for action bases. It also fits the pegs from the Master Grade stands. I've included three adapter types. The pegs are quite tight.
Dummy 13 just adds a peg to the base of the Dummy 13 wall mount so the arms and peg all still fit. I find this works best for kits with mount points in the back, like Megami Device or Frame Arms Girls. Print it flat side down, where the balls are.
5mm Hole is a peg with a hole to fit the connector point of some action bases, like single two point ones that plug into a base. I got a bunch of cheap ones and it seemed like a waste to not use them. This can be printed standing up.
5mm Peg is meant to attach other platforms to the wall mount, like the kind from Megami Device kits that have a 5mm hole in the bottom. YMMV on this one, might need additional glue. This can print standing up.
5mm Square Hole is meant to mimic the top of an Action Base 1 where it can hold the fork piece. I find it works better for me than just the straight 5mm hole, which is cylindrical, but YMMV.
3mm Peg is just a straight 3mm peg, it was designed to fit inside the forks as an alternative.
