Guide to assembling the MG 1/100 RX-78-2 Gundam Ver. 1.5

This MG 1/100 RX-78-2 Gundam Ver. 1.5 kit presents a modern update to the classic mobile suit, blending traditional silhouette with improved engineering. The Master Grade layout focuses on cleaner part separation and articulation that appeals to builders looking for a satisfying modelling project.

Improved movement and surface definition

The kit improves on past releases with wider joint range and more stable connections, enabling a variety of display poses. Careful part separation and crisp panel lines give the completed model a layered, realistic look that holds up under close inspection.

Skill level and recommended workshop tools

Rated at a moderate build difficulty, this model is best suited to hobbyists with some prior kit experience. Useful tools include side cutters, a sharp hobby knife, sanding sticks or files, and a pair of fine tweezers to manage small components.

Prep, paint, and protecting the finish

To improve final appearance, lightly sand nub marks and use panel lining to make details pop. Apply a clear topcoat to unify the finish and protect waterslide or sticker decals during handling and display.

For collectors and model builders who value poseability and crisp detail, the MG 1/100 RX-78-2 Gundam Ver. 1.5 is a rewarding kit that balances display potential with a thoughtful build experience.
