Hey folks, Hyperion7 here, please pardon me for being late on this particular news update ^.^'' ; here is the new gundam model kit from China...(nope, you are not looking at another bootleg kit here...c'mon let me finish my sentence...) This 1 is officially manufactured by Bandai China (Guangzhou); yes it is genuine Bandai product, as we have discussed earlier in our previous blog post.
So here it is, let's check out the box art and some of the close-up picture of the actual model kit:
So here it is, let's check out the box art and some of the close-up picture of the actual model kit:
MG 1/100 RX-78-2 Gundam Ver.2.0 China Special (Limited Edition)
Unit Price: 430 Chinese Yuan (~MYR 270)
The box art itself is pretty cool and beautifully designed, those dragon graphics on the gundam truly represents it as the Chinese version of RX-78-2 Gundam.
(Is it only me or some of you guys feel that the model kit on the box art looks more like the MG RX-78-2 Gundam Ver. OYW rather than the regular Ver.2.0 , given those identical linings all around its body and shield as it used to be?)
Well, the actual model kit as seen in the picture above, it is the MG Ver.2.0 model kit, in fact it is wholely based on the original MG RX-78-2 Gundam Ver.2.0 model kit platform , with the additional dragon graphic markings all over its body for this particular version.
The side part of the box showcases some of the pictures of the model kit taken from the regular Ver.2.0 box art, minus the Mobile Suit Gundam UC image (seen here written in the Chinese terms of 'Mobile Suit Gundam') , nothing much worth bragging about.
I'd say that this China Ver. does have its own specialty in terms of the overall model kit design, given the fact that those dragon graphics does add in some interesting looks onto the otherwise plain looking RX-78-2 Gundam.
Feeling like getting 1 for yourself? Wait no more as this is a limited edition item, grab it fast :D
