Gundam has come a long way since then; in terms of the technology of the moulding for the models, and the sheer number of products released. There simply soooo many lines for models and toys that have come and gone under so many different names. Currently there are still Master Grade, High Grade Universal Century amongt other lines and the newer RE/100 series which has gone back to the kit having simpler moulding and a lower price.
There is also the Metal Build series, which is a die-cast line, and also the Robot Tamashii line of toys. Partly because a lot of the items are mass produced, a majority of Gundam items are generally easy to collect, except for some exclusive items, but still not impossible like so other toys! Cost wise, it's also relatively affordable if you source around outside from independent importers.
It'll be interesting to see where the Gundam line will go now, since the major series Gundam Unicorn has ended. But knowing how they love to milk their stuff, i'm sure we'll be seeing more stuff for years to come. :)
