    The best Real Grade ever made. Title says it all. The model looks brilliant - every last millimeter rendered in utterly perfect detail, from the points of the V-fin to the very tips of the toes. The articulation on the kit is crazy - the arms and legs can move in all sorts of ridiculous ways, and we even got an ab crunch on a kit with a Core Fighter, which normally would prevent the abdomen from moving. The joints are loose enough to easily pose, but tight enough to hold any angle without issue. This is the definitive version of the RX-78-2 Gundam in plastic form - beautiful and flexible without being fragile in the slightest. Worth every penny, without question.

    Perfection. Genuine perfection. I think this is it. This is genuine perfection in plastic model form. The technology in play here and the final result are without equal, the culmination of decades of developing tech and engineering. You owe it to yourself to get this beauty and its top-tier build, articulation, and appearance.

  • A must have for Universal Centry Gundam fans Best classic Gundam I ever built. The design is fantastic. Articulation is better than any Gundam model kit I ever built. If you miss it, you don't know what you missed. This is a must have model for people who are fans of Universal Centry Gundam kits.

It was only a matter of time, and we're honestly surprised it took this long! After 14 years of the Real Grade line pushing engineering boundaries in 1/144 scale, we're getting the first true 2.0 release of the first ever RG! This kit looks to take all the stellar engineering seen in the PG Unleashed and cram it down from 1/60 to 1/144 scale for one of the most detailed products you've ever seen. We also have a feeling that all of the panel pop-off issues from the original kit will be a thing of the past thanks to over a decade of Bandai engineering advancements!

  • The latest designed internal frame is inspired by a semi-monocoque structure, allowing you to relive the construction of a mobile suit.
  • The joint structure, which returns to the original design, has adopted a new structure in which "the parts that look like joints bend properly" by reinterpreting the movable axis.
  • The legs are a reconsideration of the "hand-to-hand combat MS Gundam" and use composite frame joints to draw an outline similar to that of a human when it moves.
  • Details are engraved on parts that are not visible from the outside, such as joints and the backs of parts. It has a seamless design that eliminates conspicuous mounting holes and integrates it with the design.
  • The intricately colored head is thoroughly reproduced by color-coding by molding color. Details have been added down to the smallest details such as the twin eyes, main camera, magazine drum, and cheek duct.
  • Panel lines that reflect the support from the mechanism are divided into functional blocks. It is designed with the image of the actual dividing line in mind.
  • The exterior design is a fusion of the latest interpretation and a return to origins, not only by adding small details, but also by taking into account the overall shape of each part, such as the edges and curved surfaces. By composing the white body with two-tone molding colors, the amount of information (≒ shading) as a three-dimensional object is fully produced.
  • Core Fighter can be transformed into Core Block. In addition to reproducing the proportions of the aircraft form, the newly developed auxiliary joint gimmick is built into the compact core block, contributing to the realization of free posing of the Gundam.
  • As an RG original gimmick, the chest armor covering the cockpit opens and closes up and down.
  • Accessories: Beam Rifle, Bazooka, Shield, Beam Saber x 2, Interchangeable hand x 7, Landing gear parts for core fighter
