Bandai Hobby RG #01 RX-78-2 Gundam (2010) 1/144

From the heart of the One Year War comes the original RX-78-2 Gundam as the debut of Bandai's Real Grade line, released in July 2010! This RG Gundam has been designed to mirror the life-size Gundam statue that stands in Odaiba, Japan.

Incorporating sophisticated inbuilt armor gimmicks from the masterfully created inner frame, the RG Gundam is a model of authenticity, with stunning color stylization and previously unseen levels of detail for a 1/144 scale Gunpla. Setting an impressive standard for the Real Grade line, the RG Gundam paves the way for the astonishing kits to follow.

In the thick of Zeon's reconnaissance mission of the Federation's Project V, young Amuro Ray takes control of the RX-78-2 Gundam. Equipped with Luna Titanium armor, a versatile Core-Block System, and a wide array of weaponry, the Gundam is a formidable mobile suit. With Amuro's capabilities expanding at a dramatic rate, the Gundam becomes a beacon of strength for the Federation and a symbol of dread for Zeon. As the paths of Amuro and the legendary Char Aznable become inextricably linked, their actions set the stage for a historical saga that will continue to unfold.

The RG line leverages state-of-the-art injection-mold technology to offer a brand-new building experience for both seasoned modelers and newcomers alike. A pre-assembled inner frame facilitates simple construction, with finely sculpted parts layered on top to create an impressive level of detail.

Every RG model is built with a focus on realism. Subtle details, intricate decals, color separation, dynamic posability, and mechanical gimmicks work in unison to create a model that truly stands out, even without any additional modifications.

Standing approximately 125mm tall when assembled, the model does not require any glue or plastic cement. The kit includes: Runners ×10, a Realistic Decal Sheet ×1, and an Instruction Manual. Experience the beginning of the Real Grade series with the iconic RX-78-2 Gundam.
