Peace is nothing but a result of war
Gundam is a Japanese military fiction media franchise created by Yoshiyuki Tomino and Sunrise (now Bandai Namco Filmworks), the franchise features giant robots, or mecha, with the name "Gundam". The franchise began on April 7, 1979, with Mobile Suit Gundam, a TV series that defined the mecha anime genre by featuring giant robots called mobile suits in a militaristic setting. The popularity of the series spawned a franchise that includes, TV series, manga, novels, video games and a whole industry of plastic model kits known as Gunpla.
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 strture, 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. 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 armor covering the cockpit opens and closes up and down.

Features:
- 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
- The intricately colored head is molded in color; details have been added down to the smallest level, such as the twin eyes, main camera, magazine drum and cheek duct
- 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 molding colors, the amount of shading and information as a three-dimensional object is fully produced
- The Core Fighter can be transformed into the Core Block
