Build the Legendary Bandai MG 1/100 RX-78-02 Gundam The Origin

The Bandai MG 1/100 RX-78-02 Gundam The Origin faithfully recreates the iconic mobile suit as seen in Mobile Suit Gundam: The Origin. Featuring a completely redesigned inner frame, exceptional articulation, and an extensive range of interchangeable equipment, this Master Grade kit offers one of the most versatile and detailed versions of the original Gundam ever produced. It combines the classic RX-78-2 design with modern engineering, making it a favourite among Gunpla builders and Universal Century collectors.

Designed with Bandai Spirits' advanced Master Grade technology, the Bandai MG 1/100 RX-78-02 Gundam The Origin allows builders to recreate both the Early Type and Mid/Late Type configurations from the manga and anime. The highly articulated frame, opening armour details, and optional shoulder-mounted weapons provide countless display possibilities.

Why Choose the Bandai MG 1/100 RX-78-02 Gundam The Origin?

The Bandai MG 1/100 RX-78-02 Gundam The Origin is widely regarded as one of the finest RX-78 Master Grade kits thanks to its outstanding balance of detail, articulation, and playability. Unlike previous MG versions, this release includes numerous optional parts that allow builders to customise the Gundam with different armour configurations and weapon loadouts.

The flexible inner frame delivers excellent posing capability, while the redesigned ankles and waist provide greater stability for dynamic action poses. It is also compatible with Bandai's optional LED Unit (sold separately), allowing the camera eyes to illuminate for an even more impressive display.
