Product Info
About the Mobile Suit:
The RX-78-2 Gundam is the iconic mobile suit piloted by Amuro Ray in the original Mobile Suit Gundam series. Known as the “White Devil”, the RX-78-2 is a symbol of the Earth Federation’s fight against the Principality of Zeon during the One Year War. Designed by Dr. Tem Ray, this revolutionary mobile suit was the pinnacle of Federation technology at the time, featuring cutting-edge weaponry such as the beam rifle, beam sabers, and Hyper Bazooka, as well as an indestructible beam javelin and Gundam shield.
The RX-78-2 Gundam represents the turning point in the Earth Federation’s struggle, as its versatility and sheer firepower allowed it to take on multiple enemies in battle, including the formidable Zeon mobile suits. With its psychoframe and enhanced mobility, it became a legend in the Universal Century timeline. Its distinct blue, white, red, and yellow color scheme has become iconic in the Gundam franchise.

Are you ready for the ultimate Gundam kit? The PG Unleashed RX-78-2 Gundam is history-making in its number of gimmicks and new technologies, resulting in a splendid build like you've never seen before!
- It features the Gunpla Evolution Link System, which adopts a step-by-step assembly process to simulate the experience of building a real Mobile Suit!
- Its internal frame, which serves as its skeleton, is assembled in the earliest stage in the history of the Perfect Grade lineup, and it's also the largest frame in the history of Gunpla, with a total height of about 18cm.
- The kit will have over 90 points of articulation after assembly -- the largest number of joints in Gunpla history! -- for extreme posability! Its fuselage, which uses a core block mechanism, uses a new structure that combines 40 joints.
- Metallic molding color and plated parts are used for the multi-layer truss frame to create four distinct metallic expressions; three kinds of secondary processing such as silver plating, matte plating and chrome plating are combined with metal parts and newly developed etched seals to make the Gundam look even more amazing than ever before.
- In addition, this kit is equipped with the most full-body open-hatch gimmicks ever seen in a Gundam kit, and it also includes a new LED unit! The unit includes a new compact RGB two-lamp type LED light that enables color change, and a design that maximizes its efficiency. A very small lighting unit is also installed in the beam saber! The beam blade will be lit from the base in a gradation for ultimate realism. A pin-type BR435 lithium battery (one test battery included) and two LR41 button-cell batteries (not included, sold separately) are required for the light effects.
