Bandai's newest "RG" (Real Grade) 1/144-scale model kit of the RX-78-2 Gundam from "Mobile Suit Gundam" features a newly designed internal frame that's inspired by a semi-monocoque structure, allowing you to relive the construction of a Mobile Suit!

The joint structure has a new design 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-style Gundam, and use composite frame joints to have an outline similar to that of a human body in motion.

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 kit. The intricately coloured head is moulded in colour; details have been added down to the smallest level, such as the twin eyes, main camera, magazine drum and cheek duct. Panel lines are divided into functional blocks, designed with the image of an actual dividing line in mind.

The exterior design is a fusion of the latest interpretation and a return to origins, not only by the addition of 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 moulding colours, the amount of shading and information as a three-dimensional object is fully produced. The Core Fighter can be transformed into the Core Block.

In addition to reproducing the proportions of the Gundam's form, the newly developed auxiliary joint gimmick is built into the compact core block, contributing to the realization of free posing. As an RG-series original gimmick, the chest armour covering the cockpit opens and closes up and down.
