Gundam 1/144 RG RX-78-2
The RX-78-2 Gundam is the titular mobile suit of Mobile Suit Gundam television series. Part of the RX-78 Gundam series, it was built in secret on Side 7. The Gundam would turn the tide of war in favour of the Earth Federation during the One Year War against the Principality of Zeon. It was primarily piloted by Amuro Ray. With the ever-popular RX-78-2, Bandai launches its newest brand: RG. RG stands for "Real Grade," and with this line Bandai loads an amazing level of detail (think MG or PG) into an HG-size kit, complete with dynamic action and moving features. The new frame is "stress free" and features Advanced MS Joints, and stands 12.5 centimeters tall when assembled. Those wishing to tackle this awesome example of Bandai engineering will need a good hobby knife, as many of the small pieces need to be trimmed perfectly in order for them to assemble correctly. Real Sticker Decals are included. And they're fantastic! Stand not included.

This is an outstanding and amazingly detailed model kit; the Real Grade line's parts are exceptional in their precision considering they are 1/144 scale, however, they are incredibly easy to damage/stress. The main problem I have with this kit (and several other RX-78-2 kits) is the ill-conceived design that is the ball joint in the knee area: it is held in place by two relatively thin, weak hemisphere pieces of plastic; If this wasn't bad enough, the ball joint piece attaches to the upper half of the upper portion of the leg (when the leg is bent, the upper half moves in tandem, which is impressive, though). Simple flexing of the leg produces so much stress, it removes the ball joint section entirely from it's hemisphere housing, never becoming secure again.

Beside all this, as an experienced modeler, I am overwhelmingly pleased with this kit, and intend to pursue the Real Grade line.

Great details and design, but V-fins are a bit stubby for my liking. Biggest downside is the age of the kit's design that shows. MG Style hands do not work well with 1/144 scale. The Forearm and thigh armor pieces are extremely loose, and the pre-built ABS inner frame becomes loose very quickly.

This is my first ever Gundam model and I had no idea what I was doing, but it was simple and fun! Definitely not meant for much playing at all, though.
