Bandai Hobby Gundam RX-78-5 1/100 Master Grade

Buen kit de gumpla solo no me gustó que la metralleta le pesa demasiado y no la puede sostener sin apoyarla en alguna base .

Excellent customer service. Seller was very helpful, I would order again.Thank you

マンガで、知った機体ですが、やっぱりガンダムは、かっこいいです。しかも影で活躍していたとわ。

This unit is a UC (Universal Century) Gundam featured in "Mobile Suit Gundam Side Story: Space, To the End of a Flash" and "Gundam: Encounters in Space (Playstation 2)". Pretty much it is the original Gundam's Frame with extended boosters, and a heavy duty Gatling Cannon.As for the model itself, it does stay true to the design in the manga and video game as expected of any Master Grade (MG) kit. The kit is of the older style MG, which requires a lot more painting and not quite as many pieces (or detail) as a modern MG kit. That being said, I still give it 5 stars because, it is a model, and a higher skill level kit too, so some painting and customization is kinda expected. All of the add on pieces are designed to detach, revealing the RX-78 base parts, and a really neat flexible belt connects the Gatling Cannon to the ammo drum on the back of the unit.For people looking to buy this for a kid, please note it is a model. Not trying to turn you away from it but there are a lot of pieces, and due to its construction, might not survive rigorous play.I have yet to begin to assemble this kit, but I've unboxed it to take a look at what paints I'll need. It appears to share a good deal of the parts with its sister unit Gundam RX-78-4 Gundam Unit 4 MG 1/100 Scale (which I also recommend looking into) aside from the obvious red parts and the pieces for the gatling cannon. Also as a side note the gatling cannon does not spin (unfortunatly), but does have individual barrels.

It was a really good build. It arrived on time and they took really good care of it to deliver it.
