    Important update: We found out that "Bande Dessinee" is literally just a direct French translation of the word "comic." We feel personally attacked by the choice to not simply call this kit "comic ver."

    The RG Unicorn Gundam is back again! This kit recreates the suit's appearance from the Gundam ACE serialization "Bande Dessinee," which we swore was a typo when we saw the name. The kit still maintains all the proportion and poseability of the original kit, but now it comes with an Armed Armor DE as well! The box art has been reimagined too!

    Of course, all the other accessories remain the same as the original; the kit comes with the Beam Magnum, Bazooka, Shield, 2 Beam Sabers, and extra beam magnum magazines!

      Revisiting an old friend

      So everything about this kit is the same as the previous RG Unicorn, with one very distinct exception: the shield. I loved the anime but I feel this shield version is utterly amazing, and I wish I could see it animated. Putting it together is very simple, and Bandai again provides excellent engineering with style.

      Highly recommend this kit, even if you already own an RG Unicorn. Enjoy.

      Good, but not without faults

      This is by far the best version of the unicorn. after building the HG, and MG twice i can say that with out a doubt. It's a very tight kit, almost too tight.

      Make sure to shave down nub marks on the inner frame parts and the parts involved in the transformation. In addition, joints have very small tolerances, it almost makes it seem like you might break them. Be careful with the knee joint especially; one of the joints on the right leg actually disintegrated in my copy. The attachment method for the shield doesn't like to play nice with the beam tonfa on the arm, especially with the added weight from the Armed armor DE.

      The kit also comes with an ABS runner that contains parts for the ankle joints, the backpack beam saber holsters, and the shield mount.

      Excellent!

      Hands down the most satisfying kit I have built thus far. Very pleasing to look at, though watch out for very stiff joints!
