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. 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. It has a seamless design that eliminates conspicuous mounting holes and integrates it with the kit. 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. Panel lines are divided into functional blocks, designed with the image of an actual dividing line in mind. By composing the white body with two-tone molding colors, the amount of shading and information as a three-dimensional object is fully produced. |
