What's the significance of this model you ask? It's for a lucky draw from EC Geo Online Store, in which customers who purchase Gundam merchandise from the store stand a chance to win many fabulous prizes. The grand prize is of course this customized MG - it's the only one in the world! ^^
More information about this lucky draw in this previous posting.
Also, some of Katsumi Kawaguchi-sensei's Gunpla work was out as Bandai's Pro Shop releases in the past, most notably his MG Zaku II Ver. 2.0 "African Front | Afterglow of Africa". It was his entry for an MG Zaku II Ver. 2.0 competition for Bandai's staff members and other professionals organized by Dengeki Hobby magazine. It was being released as a Pro Shop Gunpla July last year.
Are we going to get an MG Dom Katsumi Kawaguchi Ver. soon? ^^
