Damn some people here are disrespectful.

Vote whatever you want, but the whole "who tf are those random anime girls lmao" attitude is so silly. Imagine being a fujoshi and disregarding a massively influential fandom with 45 years of history standing on the shoulders of your fujoshi predecessors, which was admitted by the creators themselves. Kids these days.

Anyway, accept this installation as my contribution to the ongoing Tumblr revolution, as it's too entertaining not to participate

And if you're curious why these space lesbians are so powerful, I invite you to YouTube where the entirety of G-Witch can be watched for free in multiple languages. Don't worry, it's a standalone series that doesn't require any prior knowledge of the Gundam franchise.

The grandaddy Gundam, and the grandaddy of all Real Grade kits...

I really enjoyed the RG Zaku II I built, so I had to get another Real Grade kit. And I figured I ought to start from the very beginning, with RG01, so I could see how the line has evolved.

Imagine my surprise when Bandai announced a 2.0 version of this kit. Now I'm eagerly waiting to get my hands on that one so I can compare the builds.

Once again, my mind was blown by the Advanced MS Joint runner. I just don't understand this thing. I can't wrap my head around the engineering needed to produce movable joints on a single runner like this.

But I also don't really understand the point... It's got to be expensive and time-consuming to make something like that. Wouldn't it be easier to just build a normal inner-frame?

I absolutely love the detail in this RG kit. Five tiny pieces to assemble a bit of ankle armor that'd be just one or two pieces in an HG kit.

Unfortunately that detail leads to increase complexity and some unfortunate compromises. This ankle armor, for example, makes the heel very weak. It's hard to get a good, solid pose out of the feet.

I thought I'd lost a piece for good.

I was putting this tiny little almost-invisible bit of grey plastic into the leg, slipped, and it just vanished. One moment it was there, the next it was gone.

I never heard it hit anything or land anywhere. I spent about an hour crawling around under my desk... But the plastic is the same color as my carpet. I thought for sue it was gone for good.

I ran the robovac overnight in a vague hope that it might find the piece... And it did! The next morning I emptied out the dustbin and there it was.

I need to work on my building and detailing process...

I like to do the panel-lining during the build. I find it easier to do before everything is completely assembled. But I later discovered that some of the decals were supposed to go over areas I'd panel-lined already.

Maybe I need to do decals during assembly too?

The detail, again, is just fantastic. I'm kind of stunned at what they can cram into this tiny little 1/144 scale model. So many different shades of color, tiny little bits of plastic, gimmicks. Little opening hatches and moving pieces of armor. Amazing.

There's even a tiny little transforming core fighter. It can fold up and go into the Gundam's torso - just like in the anime.

While I did build and fully detail the core fighter, I decided not to actually use it in the model. You lose a little bit of flexibility if you use the core fighter instead of the MS Joint part.

I thought it'd be a shame to use the included sticker-style decals on such an intricate model, so I grabbed some waterslide decals. These aren't anything special - just the official Bandai waterslides for the kit.

They're basically a duplicate of the sticker-style decals that are in the box. This means that everything is accurate... But you also get some weird, boring, flat versions of the metallic stickers from the box. I'm really not sure why you'd use those for anything.

And, of course, once the decals were done I had to topcoat the whole thing. I did a couple very light passes with the Mr. Hobby matte topcoat and I think it turned out well. Things still softened and blurred maybe a little more than I wanted them to... But the end result wasn't horrible.

Once again, I thoroughly enjoyed this build. I love the level of detail and complexity in the Real Grade line. It's absolutely fantastic.

Unfortunately the kit is a little soft and fragile once it's built. It's not falling apart on my desk... But it didn't like being handled much. I kept losing thruster bells off the backpack when I tried to pose it.

I'm eager to see what the 2.0 is like. How detailed it is. What they do (or don't do) with that MS Joint runner. How it'll compare to this grandaddy of grandaddies.

Well, everyone has been theorizing and waiting for it to happen and Bandai it finally giving us the first Real Grade 2.0 with this RX-78-2 Gundam. Here's the thing, I have never been the biggest fan of the RX-78-2 and have wanted a kit of one, one that really feels like the definitive kit of it and none of the one out have really felt like that to me. I was going to settle on the MG The Origin RX-78-2 but, then I saw the images of this and I realize now that this is going to be the one for me. Of course, the current RG RX-78-2 is extremely dated and really doesn't hold up (same with the RG Zaku II) so it really does make sense that a 2.0 RG of the RX-78-2 is coming and I am looking forward to it. I have no idea what it'll cost nor when it'll release and I am not going to pre-order it but I do intend on getting one and having what I think is the definitive kit of the RX-78-2.

MG 3.0 RX-78-2 GUNDAM | Gundam Base Color Swap Edition. This is my first proper project with a gunpla. While shooting and editing the photos, I discovered so many small blemishes and painting errors that can't be seen normally, but that is to be expected for my first fully custom bot~~ here to a better build in the near future~~
