MG 1/100 - RGM-79G GM Command 'Colony Type'

Discover one of the most beloved production Mobile Suits from Mobile Suit Gundam 0080: War in the Pocket with the Gunpla MG 1/100 RGM-79G GM Command (Colony Type) by Bandai Spirits. Designed for combat inside and around space colonies, the GM Command receives a modern reproduction in Master Grade format.

Released in December 2017, this model holds a special place in the history of the line as it is the 200th Master Grade marketed by Bandai. Its design incorporates part of the structure developed for the MG GM Sniper II while integrating numerous specific parts intended to faithfully reproduce the GM Command Colony Type.

The characteristic silhouette of the RGM-79G is particularly well reproduced with its compact torso, large shoulder pads, specific backpack for colony operations, and sober military proportions. The parts molded in different colors allow for a faithful rendering right from assembly.

The articulated structure offers excellent mobility in the torso, shoulders, arms, and legs. The elbows and knees feature double joints, while the shoulders can be brought forward to facilitate poses with the Bullpup Machine Gun.

Its equipment remains faithful to the configuration seen in War in the Pocket with a Bullpup Machine Gun, a large shield, and two Beam Sabers. Three ammunition magazines are included and can be attached directly to the shield with the saber holder.

Gunpla Zone Tips

The MG RGM-79G GM Command Colony Type is an excellent choice for fans of production Mobile Suits. Its modern design, good mobility, and compact equipment allow for easy natural poses without bulky accessories.

Its sober military design is particularly well suited for panel lining, markings, and weathering. A few traces of wear or scuff effects can notably enhance the operational aspect of the Mobile Suit and perfectly match the realistic atmosphere of Gundam 0080: War in the Pocket.
