GUNDAM - HG 1/144 RX-78-2 Gundam Beyond Global - Model Kit

Lead the revival of the original legend with the official High Grade model kit of the RX-78-2 Gundam in the Beyond Global edition!

Created specifically to commemorate 40 years of the Gunpla cultural revolution, the “Beyond Global” edition is an engineering masterpiece that completely reimagines the design of Amuro Ray’s original robot. The designers at Bandai Hobby have chosen to move away from classic retro proportions to offer a sleek, modern and deeply dynamic silhouette, optimised to achieve the most natural and striking action poses ever seen on this scale.

This high-end model showcases structural innovation and refined aesthetics. The internal chassis has been completely re-engineered: the thigh joints incorporate an extended range of rotation, the torso bends across several independent segments, and the shoulders feature a forward-disengagement mechanism to allow the robot to cross its arms or wield its weapons in an ultra-realistic manner. The model also stands out for its unique colour palette, swapping bright primary colours for softer, more realistic and sophisticated matt pastel shades (off-white, desaturated blue and brick red) that beautifully capture the light without the need for paint. To vary the display configurations, the kit includes a complete elite arsenal: the Beam Rifle, a refined-looking reinforced Shield, and two lightsabres featuring removable blades made of translucent pink plastic.

The building experience prioritises pure enjoyment, ergonomics and micrometric precision. No messy glue is required; all high-precision components snap together smoothly with a simple mechanical press, thanks to Bandai’s Snap-fit technology. The parts detach cleanly from the plastic sprues to ensure flawless, crisp finishes. Once completed, this 13 cm tall model impresses with its exceptional flexibility and visual elegance, instantly establishing itself as one of the most modern and essential centrepieces to adorn your manga shelves.
