The Bandai Entry Grade 1/144 RX-78-la-III Lah Gundam is a snap-fit plastic model kit from the Gundam Build Metaverse anime series. The Lah Gundam is the custom Gunpla of protagonist Rio Hojo, built using the RX-78-2 Entry Grade as a base and named after the Hawaiian word "la" meaning sun. This Entry Grade kit is ideal for beginners - it features touch gate runners that allow parts to be removed by hand without nippers, color-separated parts requiring no stickers or paint, and simple snap-fit assembly. The kit also includes spare parts from the original mold, allowing builders to optionally construct a Lah Gundam-colored RX-78-2 Gundam.
