GUNDAM - HGUC 1/144 - RX-178 Gundam MK-II AEUG - Model Kit

The icon of space rebellion joins your collection with the superb HGUC 1/144 RX-178 Gundam Mk-II (AEUG Version). Seized by the AEUG during a daring raid on the Titans organization at the beginning of the cult series Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam, this test machine piloted by Kamille Bidan embodies the true spiritual successor to the legendary RX-78-2. Offered by Bandai in its modern High Grade Universal Century (HGUC - "Revive") version, this kit captures the athletic lines and robust profile of this legendary mecha, giving it perfect proportions, increased stability, and vibrant colors.

A simulated internal frame system and a top-tier military arsenal

The HGUC Gundam Mk-II (AEUG) stands out with its cutting-edge engineering that faithfully reproduces the machine's realistic and versatile design:

• The retractable shield: A centerpiece of the Mk-II's defense, this sliding armored shield has a robust attachment mechanism allowing it to extend in length or retract to free up the arm's range of motion.
• The Vulcan Pod System communication helmet: The kit includes the removable external vulcan pod system that clips around the head to enhance the AEUG's infiltration silhouette.
• The beam rifle and clay bazooka: To vary attack poses, the kit provides its standard beam rifle (equipped with a removable magazine) as well as an imposing Hyper Bazooka that can be stored on the rear skirt armor thanks to a functional latch.
• Functional beam sabers: Two Beam Sabers are housed in the backpack compartments, ready to be equipped with their translucent pink effects included in the box.

Remarkable freedom of movement from Bandai

Fully benefiting from the design technologies of the "Revive" renewal line, this 1/144 scale model demonstrates all of Bandai's expertise in posability. The double ball joints of the elbows and knees allow for striking realistic action and kneeling poses. The shoulder articulation system allows the arms to be projected forward to firmly shoulder the beam rifle with both hands. True to the Snap-Fit principle, assembly is done entirely without glue or paint for a clean, neat finish, ready to be displayed on your shelves.
