The Bandai MG 1/100 FA-78-1 Full Armor Gundam is a Master Grade kit based on the iconic Mobile Suit Variations (MSV) design from the Universal Century timeline. Built on the highly refined MG RX-78-2 Gundam Ver.2.0 inner frame, this kit features a fully detachable Full Armor system with an imposing green and gray color scheme and a devastating arsenal of weapons. Recommended for intermediate to advanced builders, the MG Full Armor Gundam offers inner frame construction with detailed mechanical layering and multiple weapon gimmicks. The FA-78-1 was introduced in the original 1980s MSV design series as a heavy assault variant of the RX-78-2 Gundam equipped with the FSWS (Full-armor System and Weapon System) Plan enhancements.
