5 main points of RG RX-78-2

1. The interior construction up till now has been changed by the “Advanced Joint”.
The “System Injection’” have evolved further, for use within the interior frame of RG. Just by removing parts from frame, the interior frame gimmicks and movement range that surpasses MG has been achieved. With the number of parts on the frame reduced down to only 12 items, allowing a stress-free construction.

2. The new decal, “Realistic Decal”
The high- quality decal to express the realistic trexture, the “Realistic Decal”. With the foil and marking merged as one, a brand new decal that has been compressed down to a single sheet. The decal with special material will give a weightier feel to it with more realistic expression.

3. Color separation expression never seen before in 1/144 scale.
By expressing the precise parts separation linked to the exterior parts of GR 1/44 RX-78-2 Gundam, an exterior color separation that seems realistic has been achievable. Even the pickiest of modelers will approve of the result.

4. Core FIghter can transform and able to be stored within the main machine.
The first as 1/144 scale to have the capability of full transformation from the Core Fighter to Core Block fully reproduced. Furthermore, it has ability to store within the body of Gundam itself. Plus, it has a special joint used that prioritizes movement, managing to achieve the needs of both points.

5. Using 3 types of frame gates to increase the level of finish.
“Canopy Gate” minimizes the whitening of the plastic as you cut parts off the frame
“Under Gate” prevents leaving traces of the gate on the parts surface
“Kusabi Gate” to allow you to work with separated parts easier
The combined use of these gates directly improves the quality of finished product at plain construction.
