We got a Metal Composite of this incredible design, but now there's finally something for all the model builders out there! This stunning rendition of the original Gundam features a new mold chock full of new gimmicks and panel lines for extra detailing, and all the classic weapons have been redesigned for this updated release! It comes with the beam rifle, hyper bazooka, shield, Origin beam rifle and shoulder cannon!

    Worth Every Penny This rendition of the RX-78-2 gundam is little on the odd side, with all of the new origin armaments; however, do not let this deter you from buying this model as it is among the best I own. This model has very flexible and light design that still manages to hold very specific poses. It contains many effect parts and weapons along with many optional pieces that provide a lot of room for customization. I would highly recommend this model to anyone wanting to dip their feet into the master grade scene, as it is extremely well designed and relatively easy to finish.

    Favorite version of Grandaddy Gundam I won't admit to going ga-ga over the RX-78 design. I appreciate it for its historical significance, but eh. But this? This I like. I'm very much someone who is more than okay with updated takes on classic designs. The wrist guns, the pec cannons, the blast effects, even the backpack cannon? Love it, love it, love it. And don't worry, the parts can be swapped to put in the classic design.

    Absolutely amazing While the 3.0 strives to recreate the 1/1 statue, the Origin manages to both look amazing and pose like a jojo character.

    Another Mechanically Sound Granddad MG This MG is definitely one of the best RX-78-2's if you appreciate good builds the most. From start to finish, everything you build is enjoyable and looks good while you do it. Great accessories too; shield, original beam rifle, Origin beam rifle, shoulder cannons, 2 sabers, multiple effect parts for the various vulcans on the body, and the bazooka. My only issue with this kit is the proportions, but frankly that's something only you can decide on whether you like or not.

    Best of its class. You can't go wrong with the originals, and this is no exception. The RX-78-2 has never been more polished and deserving of its title as the granddaddy of all Gundams. Excellent articulation, fantastic colors, and all around loaded with extras. My only issue is that all of the extra parts feel a little left out when you've got this piece all set up, but its so customizable that its hardly a complaint! A must-have for any Gunpla collector and Gundam fan.

    jojobuilder has this! -6m

    One of the bests This kit is very fun and great for a beginner in the sense of they are starting a build. It is a literal upscaled version of an entry-grade RX78-2. If you were to go with an RX ver.3.0. I suggest not to, unless you are hoping for an intricate build, if you just want a fun nice time then choose the GTO.
    I did have trouble with the thigh pieces and had to cement them together to stay on, as well I wish you had more options to make him uniform and not so asymmetrical.
