    The RX-78GP01 was designed to be an adaptable mobile suit, able to operate under any condition on Earth or in space; to that end its design is superficially similar to the other RX series Gundams. One major innovation in the RX-78GP01's arsenal was the addition of a beam rifle that used removable energy capacitor clips called e-pacs. Previous beam rifle designs had the energy capacitor integrated into the rifle directly, resulting in the rifle becoming dead weight once the capacitor was depleted. With e-pacs, beam rifles can be used indefinitely as long as the pilot has a ready supply of replacement e-pacs. The RX-78GP01 has three e-pacs (one mounted on the rifle, two held in reserve on the shield) in its normal deployment configuration.

    Wasn't that a fun history lesson? In any event, this kit recreates all the features of the GP01, but we will warn you that it's been cast in a slightly off-white mintish green; this isn't a manufacturing defect, and is the way Bandai has always made the kit!

      It’s good

      This is an old mg it’s still a good kit. However it could use some t.l.c to help with some of the proportions and articulation if you want. Articulation isn’t a big deal for me. Once something is painted up it will be in one pose and kinda stay that way mite tweak something here and there but nothing crazy. Don’t get me wrong I love this kit but it could use an upgrade and I know I’m not the only one that thinks that.

      Please don't buy this kit

      The GP-01 is a very cool suit and I know a lot of people have fond memories of it. But this kit sucks. For the era of Gunpla it came from it's of low quality. Low quality plastic makes it extremely brittle and it has remarkable low pose-ability for an MG. It's sad since the 90s gave us great MG kits from 0080 and G. You're better off getting the RG kit

      Stardust Memory

      I liked the GP-01 gundam since I was in middle school and I was so happy to get the master grade gunpla version recently. The only downside to this model is its a little top heavy because of the core fighter in the chest and the backpack. Other than that its a great model.
