Is this generally good in quality - specifically the side nippers?

I've been using it for a few months and I think the nippers are very good, it rarely leaves stress marks on anything I've been using it to build unless you quite literally cut right next to it.

Can these be used on the gundam fix figuration metal composite kids?

Maybe, I think they built these with plastic Gundams in mind. The cutters would be ruined overtime by metal pieces but the file and screwdrivers seem metal applicable

I understand these tools are usually used for gundam models but i was wondering if i could use them for one piece ship models as well.

I think so, as long as your ship model is made in plastic this set should be able to handle that.

Does this kit come with an X-acto blade?

It comes with 9mm Utility retractable knife ( blade # OLFA AB-50B Pro 9mm blade). It works just as well as a X-acto knife if not better. Highly recommended Tool set.
