Kit from 2007. The RX78GP02A was featured in the Stardust Memory OVA but seems that this particular variant is from a videogame.
Not quite your standard HG kit here, it is quite large and heavy, just as shown on the box. It also come with lots of tricks, including the nicest gimmick this week: Connected thrusters that move together!
Ratchet wrists allow it to hold up very heavy loads!
Individual lids for missile silos! All six of them!
A weird giant bazooka. That one's just weird though.
The construction uses a lot ABS joints to be able to hold up all the extra weight of all the attachments, and that means it has ABS problems - It is hard to move, the joints are squeaky and can seize up and unexpectedly snap.
This was a fun kit to build despite that, despite the ABS. 6 out of 8 dentists would recommend. The other two could not be reached for comments. Watch the video for the full build.
