The Bandai PG Unleashed 1/60 RX-78-2 Gundam is the flagship Perfect Grade Unleashed model kit from the original Mobile Suit Gundam series. Representing the culmination of Bandai's GunPla Evolution Project, this 1/60 scale kit introduces a multi-phase build process that simulates constructing a real mobile suit from internal skeleton to external armor. This is an advanced-level build recommended for experienced Gunpla builders due to its large size, multi-material construction, and extensive part count. The RX-78-2 Gundam is the iconic Earth Federation prototype close-combat mobile suit piloted by Amuro Ray during the One Year War.
Key Features
Over 90 Points of Articulation: Features working pistons and sliding mechanisms throughout the body, with 40 movable axes in the chest structure alone via a core block mechanism.
Multi-Phase Build Process: Utilizes the Gunpla Evolution Link System with a step-by-step assembly starting from the internal skeletal frame and progressing outward through truss detail layers to external armor.
LED Lighting System: Includes a color-changing RGB LED unit in the head and chest for combat and maintenance display states, plus a light-up beam saber with gradation effect. BR435 lithium battery included for beam saber; LR41 batteries required for main LED unit (sold separately).
Magnet Shield Mount: First-ever magnet system in Gunpla history supports the shield on the forearm for secure attachment.
Premium Multi-Material Construction: Outer armor features silver plating, chrome plating, gold plating, aluminum parts for head vulcans and backpack verniers, metallic 3D stickers, and photo-etch sticker parts.
Full Open-Hatch Gimmicks: Numerous maintenance hatches across the entire body can be opened to reveal the highly detailed multi-layered internal frame.
Transforming Core Fighter: Includes a Core Fighter that transforms into Core Block mode and docks within the Gundam's torso.

i was giving a damaged or used/damaged kit? i just oped the box today only to discover several runners missing, the stickers missing(even though it should be decals)…smh….what am i supposed to do with this?
Hello Ryan:
This is very disturbing and suprising to see for us as well. We have emailed you to gather some more information about this. If there are no visual damage or the box was never opened when you received it, then it might be a Bandai's QC issue which we can help sorting this out with you.
