Real Grade precision for Robert Gilliam's Zaku II

The RG 1/144 MS-06R-2 Zaku II, flown by Robert Gilliam in the series, showcases the Real Grade approach to scale model engineering. This kit focuses on crisp part separation and a sturdy inner frame that appeals to builders who value accuracy and authentic silhouette.

Articulation, Joints and Pose Stability

The kit uses layered construction and refined joint design to enable expressive poses while keeping the model stable. Parts are engineered for solid fit, which reduces trimming and rework during assembly.

Skill Level, Tools and Prep

This is a moderate-level build best suited to hobbyists with some kit experience. Recommended tools include quality side cutters, a sharp hobby knife and sanding sticks to tidy up nubs and seams.

Painting, Panel Lining and Final Coats

Although the color separation is strong out of the box, light panel lining, selective painting and decal work will enhance depth. Finish with a protective topcoat to lock in paint and decals for display.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/144
  • Grade: RG (Real Grade)
  • Build Level: Moderate

Robert Gilliam's Zaku II in RG form is a smart pick for collectors and modellers who appreciate a balance of detail and straightforward assembly.

The kit has strong color separation, but targeted paint on vents and joints plus panel lining will bring out details and provide a more finished appearance.
Adding polycaps where joints are loose or using a small amount of liquid cement on rotating parts can improve pose retention without major mods.
Expect several focused sessions over a weekend for assembly and basic finishing, longer if you plan to paint and decal the kit thoroughly.
Aftermarket sheets can offer finer markings and weathering options, making them a worthwhile upgrade for advanced displays.
