Here is my next project. Yup another RX78-02. Its not even my favorite suit, but I keep building them.
When I first heard about this, I was one of the person that thought 'Not another one' I mean there are alot of MG RX78. Although 3.0 was pretty awesome kit. However I end up wanting this kit when I saw the actual pictures and the box art.
I mean look at this thing. Its not slim and mean machine like 3.0 was. This Gundam looks like a real war machine. All ready for battle. I can't put my finger on it as why. Basic shapes are similar.
And this off-white. I don't know why but I love it.
The red is standard affair.
The yellow is bit darker but nothing fancy. However This effect parts. Oh man. I can't wait to see how this turns out.
The Fingers are the new ones. Same as 3.0 kit so I have to be careful when building this.
And like most new MG kits, there are not alot of poly-caps.
There is also a gorgeous artwork on the manual.
Much needed color guide and inspirational pictures.
And like all Bandai kits. Very well detailed
This will be my main project. I will be working on small stuff while I try to finish this like RG Red Frame, Which will be straight build.
I still haven't decided if I should custom paint this. Alot of ideas in my head like painting this as Origin version of RX-78-01 which is all yellow/gold like. Kit is similar so converting it is not hard. But I do like that off-white color and I do want to try to mimic it.
Any suggestion are welcome.
