Bandai 5061610 MG 1/100 RX-78-2 Gundam Ver.3.0 - Master Grade Collector Kit  [B-5061610]

Overview of the RX-78-2 Gundam Ver.3.0 Master Grade

The RX-78-2 Gundam Ver.3.0 is released as a Master Grade kit that emphasises accurate shaping and mechanical detail. Taken from the Mobile Suit Gundam lineage, this kit is intended for hobbyists who enjoy a technical build and want a platform suitable for advanced finishing and display.

Construction quality and mobility review

This version stands out for its accurate moulding and careful colour split, which lowers the initial painting required. Component tolerances reduce visible joins, and the articulated joints permit expressive stances that mirror the original design language.

Personalisation options and finishing notes

The detailed inner frame and crisp panel lines make this Master Grade a strong candidate for custom paint, washes and decal layering. Consider undergating and careful part removal to keep surfaces clean for high-end finishing techniques.

Recommended tools and procedures

Use sharp nippers for clean separation, then sand in stages to maintain contour lines. Prime ABS components before colour coats and use low-pressure airbrushing to avoid filling engraved details. Patience with masking will reward you with neat colour transitions.

For collectors and modellers seeking a high-detail project, the Bandai MG 1/100 RX-78-2 Gundam Ver.3.0 combines excellent engineering and scope for refinement, making it a top-tier Master Grade kit.
