RX-78-2 Gundam

This is my RG RX-78-2 Gundam Ver. 2.0, which is one of if not my favorite kit I've built. It was a very fun kit to build and there are incredible alternate instructions available to build the inner-frame first and attatch the outer peices after making it feel very technincal.

The posability of this kit is astounding compared to the other kits I've worked on even compared to my RG Gundam Wing. Both the elbows and knees are double-jointed, the arms rotate and shoulders swing forward and up, the head can pivot and move, the whole waist can tilt and the hips can swing down and more.

This model was finished before I had tools such as files and markers so I need to go back and work on this at some point. The right part of the V-fin is broken, so I may eventually get the kit again if I can't find a spare. I think having one with just the underframe showing would be cool anyways if I get another kit.
