The Bandai RG #01 1/144 RX-78-2 Gundam is the very first kit in the Real Grade line, originally released in July 2010 to celebrate the 30th anniversary of Gunpla. This iconic 1/144 scale kit from Mobile Suit Gundam condenses Master Grade-level detail and articulation into a compact form standing approximately 125mm tall, featuring a pre-molded Advanced MS Joint inner frame and layered armor construction. As an RG kit, it is recommended for intermediate builders who enjoy detailed construction with small parts. Piloted by Amuro Ray during the One Year War, the RX-78-2 Gundam is the original hero mobile suit that defined the franchise.

Key Features

• Advanced MS Joint Inner Frame: Pre-molded internal skeleton provides extensive articulation including double-jointed elbows and knees, rotating waist, and poseable skirt armor panels.
• Transformable Core Fighter: The first RX-78-2 Gundam kit to include a fully transformable Core Fighter that converts into a Core Block and docks within the torso.
• Realistic Decals: Includes a sheet of special Realistic Decals made of a unique material that provides authentic surface markings and mechanical detail.
• Sliding Armor Mechanism: Leg and arm armor pieces slide outward when joints are bent, revealing the inner frame and simulating realistic mechanical movement.
