HG 1/144 Gundam RX-78-2 Ver. G 30th Review & HCM-Pro Anime Color Ver.

Third review of HG 1/144 Gundam RX-78-2 Ver. G 30th from Gunpla Secret Factory - the arms and the rifle.



The assembly of the arm is very similar to HG 00 Gundam as well - exactly the same for the shoulder armor. It does have one polycap more than 00 Gundam though.


Three types of left hand designs, just like HGUC Nu Gundam.



Some modification to HG 00 Gundam's spread palm allows you to use it for this kit.



Articulation range of the shoulder is controlled by a ball-type joint.


Parts for the beam rifle. Good thing the targeting sensor is molded in yellow this time, as compared to the one to be painted in the previous HGUC release.

On the other hand, a gallery of another Gundam 30th Anniversary item released last month which didn't seem to catch much attention: ^^; HCM-Pro Gundam RX-78-2 Anime Color Ver.






Released on June 25th at 2,310 Yen (inclusive of tax). I forgot how many variations of HCM-Pro Gundam RX-78-2 were released in the past. Fans of this series most probably has a few versions of it already. ^^;
