Bandai 5060747 Entry Grade 1/144 RX-78-2 Gundam EX1 - Classic Gunpla Kit  [B-5060747]

Overview of the Entry Grade RX-78-2 Gundam EX1 from Bandai

The Bandai Entry Grade 1/144 RX-78-2 Gundam EX1 captures the classic RX-78-2 silhouette while keeping construction uncomplicated. Intended for those new to Gunpla and for quick builds, this kit delivers reliable fit and pre-coloured parts so you can produce an attractive model without advanced finishing.

Build Quality and Details

The model benefits from clean moulding and thoughtful engineering, resulting in tight joins and limited clean-up. Colour separation is effective, and the details are surprisingly sharp for an entry level kit. If desired, modest enhancements like panel lining or decals will significantly lift the final presentation.

Helpful Assembly Pointers

Start by removing parts carefully with nippers and work from larger assemblies down to small components. Use fine sandpaper to tidy gate marks and consider a wash to bring out recessed panel lines. The undergate method keeps visible nubs to a minimum and helps achieve a sharper appearance.

The Bandai Entry Grade 1/144 RX-78-2 Gundam EX1 is a practical introduction to Gunpla that still offers scope for modest customisation by more confident modellers.
