I love how theyve become self-aware with the promotion and the showcase of its features. back then it was moreso "the realistic proportions and humanlike movements have been successfully replicated!" now its more "yeah this helps keep the parts from falling off and shit. this one locks too so it wouldnt be loose"

[@Borgron]

It also means they’re listening to the fans to some degree, which I can always appreciate.

[@IronicSonics]

I just finished yesterday the og RG and dear god those skirts are a nightmare. Only took them 14 years XD

[@Borgron]

@@IronicSonics I heard if you tighten the ball joints on the skirts, it’ll make them a bit better. Haven’t tested it yet though. I might also try deepening the socket at some point.

[@TurzorTorden]

Man, RG is evolving so much the mechanisms look like they can be implemented in future robotics engineering projects. Gunpla wa hontoni saiko desu!

[@pRyudo]

yeah yeah. If only they would make more than the 600th RX78-2

[@striker0]

@@pRyudo Would you prefer the 4,678th variation of the Unicorn?

[@pRyudo]

@@striker0 nope.

[@TurzorTorden]

@@pRyudo like the narrative?

[@Vespuchian]

Wouldn't surprise me in the slightest if the next 1:1 scale Gundam is a direct copy of this design.

[@Borgron]

We’ve gone from “mini Master Grade” to “pint-sized Perfect Grade.”

[@kueapel911]

not that far yet. it's still mini master grade, since latest MGs are also having lots of improvements.

[@solarsailor1534]

I love the music and sound effects in this video. It makes it feel like you’re not just going to build another Gunpla, you’re building the legendary machine that won the One Year War. I’m excited!

[@tomhossain2099]

The turn X with this technology would be mind blowing

[@GavrielRosario]

the question is would we ever get one?

[@GuiltlessGear]

@@GavrielRosario Bandai makes non UC/SEED merch challenge:

[@downeastbeast6448]

Don't give P-Bandai any ideas lmao

[@xxnike0629xx]

So basically an RG version of the PGU.

[@kritthanon_leasiripanid]

If your PGU means "remake old kit with new technology" then yes, it's kinds same, but if you mean "RX-78 PGU ver." then no, are you fking blind?

[@Stainlessgamer]

Nope. The original RG was designed keeping in mind, the shared inner frame concept of early RG, which turned out to be one of RGs biggest design flaws. Bandai's taken everything they learned over the years, went back to the drawing board and completely redesigned this kit from the ground up, to drastically improve the quality. Lets hope they follow this up with a Zaku II 2.0. and then maybe a proper Sinanju.

[@LongNguyen-uv8nn]

more like an rg nu but with rx 78 2 armor outside

[@calvinwarthur1770]

@@Stainlessgamer and a new Zeta Gundam 2.0 and A new release ZZ Gundam since there's RG gaogaigar Model kit maybe they will consider make it😇😇😇 who knows maybe it will take time because i'm not the one who making it 😅😅😅 so consider this like a fortune telling for the future 😇😇🥰🥰

[@benten6539]

Hope theres a MGEX soon

[@wppy]

This definetly looks like the best rx-78-2 Gunpla to ever exist.

[@otes02]

Need of all old RG upgraded like this

[@hafiziharris27]

& also MG

[@thekunninglinguist2397]

All pre 2.0 MG kits as well please

[@vedajanitra8199]

especially Sinanju

[@rikisalim6438]

Char zaku, destiny, justice, zeta, and sinanju. Any other RG that are need 2.0 treatment?

[@BigDoof12]

Agreed. But I also want them to give some other suits their due first. The Barbatos needs an RG, so does G-self,Turn A, ZZ, Alex etc. I would love to see more non gundams too. Another zaku would be priority 1. I know it would be silly but a Leo would be awesome lol a gouf is a must, as is schwarzette

[@vustvaleo8068]

cool that the waist bend and ab crunch is not hindered by the Core Fighter and that thing still transforms.

[@johnrhogan2908]

Holy SHITT!! THAT was impressive. To think that GunPla has come soo far, and that the technology to make them more lifelike and posable is amazing. And, of course, where better to begin than with the RX-78-2. Then the design specs can be implemented into future RG releases hopefully.

[@DX16]

Yeah, the RX-78-2 is a benchmark, a good kit to do a demonstration. If you start with something completely different, people can't compare.

[@bolthesorcerer3570]

Hope to see more of this new technology in both future 2.0 (likely the Zaku, the Zeta, the Freedoms and the Wing Zero are on the priority list) and completely new additions in the RG lineup (F91, Double X, Turn A, G-Self, Barbatos, Master Gundam, Wing Zero TV and Narrative are some of my wishes...)

[@KazeAkiyama]

If we get the DX before the X I'll be so sad.

[@bolthesorcerer3570]

@@KazeAkiyama I have a gut feeling that the DX would be first, but I personally want both!

[@GuiltlessGear]

seeing the G-Self would be a real treat. Bandai seems to want to pretend Reco G and AGE don't exist unless it's to cannibalize the old runners for some build fighter kits.

[@bolthesorcerer3570]

@@GuiltlessGear Yeah, its kinda weird considering at least G-Reco as a whole didn't did as bad in Japan at least, but afaik they havent done any mention that this year is the 10th anniversary of the show, would be cool to see something of my boy to celebrate...

[@GuiltlessGear]

@@bolthesorcerer3570 This year is cursed tbh. Fat, overfed baby SEED's entire feature film and accompanying High Grade subline pretty much locks out Reco G, G Gundam, OR Build Fighters Try from anything substantial to commemorate their anniversaries.

[@OvAeons]

I want to see a stop motion artist make a short with this kit. Bandai should commission one to do so.

[@wisteriawitch7816]

Can we PLEASE get a new RG Zaku II 😭

[@davidw9785]

🙏

[@MechaBorne]

or a MG Kampfer that was made in the last 20 years

[@redshiftproductions7158]

If this does well I don't see why they wouldn't start issuing 2.0 versions of the early RGs especially the problematic ones like the Zaku variants

[@lilmoeszyslak4810]

Vote with your money people!!!! I’m buying it!!!

[@Hadihadi-wr8mt]

I bet Bandai Will never make it. Even if they want to make RG 2.0 treatment, it will be : wing/ zero ew Gundam, zeta Gundam, mk II, strike, freedom, strike freedom and unicorn again. That's it!! Bandai has no love for zeon mobile suit or secondary characters

[@StevenDolce]

Fingers crossed for more RG 2.0 kits.

[@kamenriderovant9676]

Time for the RX-78-6 to get a RG with this then.

[@tselelleb]

For 2.0 series. Hoping for the following. Char's Zaku (His Origins ver) Zeta (its mini Ver.ka) Destiny (a more detailed/advanced version of its Latest HG kit) Wing Zero (Its mini Ver.Ka) 00 Qan[T] (better shield connector and no ERS on its feet) Sinanju (just a better waist and no hand grenade parts) For new ones, hoping for more Main antagonists or the remaining mains like The 0 (Zeta series) Enhanced ZZ and Qubeley (ZZ series) Zaku II Kai and The Alex (War in the pocket) Stamen and Physalis (Stardust series) Narrative and Sinanju Stein (Narrative film) F91 (F91 Film) V2 Assault-Buster and Gottrlatan (Victory series) Turn A and Turn X (Turn A Gundam) G-Self Perfect Pack and Kabakali (Reconquista) Devil and/or Master (G Gundam series) Altron EW (Endless Waltz OVA) Double X, Virsago Chest Break and Ashtaron Hermit Crab (After War X) Mighty Strike Freedom, Infinite Justice, Legend, and Cal-re.A (Cosmic era) Reborns (00 series) AGE-FX and Vagan Gear/Sid (AGE series) Barbatos Lupus Rex and Reginlaze Julia (IBO) Calibarn and Aerial Rebuild (WfM)

[@noahpurzycki1459]

replace lupus rex with the lupus and throw in the deathscythe hell, outside that 100% agree.

[@user-sp9po5qi9q]

You will be very disappointed bro 😅

[@bolthesorcerer3570]

I would kill for a Destiny, QanT and Wing Zero 2.0. F91, the Turns, G-Self, Master, Double X, Barbatos and Calibarn are also in my wishlist. Thought a Devil Gundam? Good luck even asking for a HG...

[@jfbeast]

Basically, the updated mechanics are from what we've seen in MG Wing kits.

[@gandhilaguna9622]

Since I was a child I want to start in the model kit world. I live in a 3rd world country so it was pretty expensive to have one of these. But now, this year I started working as an engineer. I started whit the basic RX 78 2 of 10 dollar and now that I wanted to buy the RG. A new one was released :D

[@idkwhattohaveasausername5828]

This is literally just a mini perfect grade. It’s crazy how far RG kits have come. Already got it on preorder and can’t wait.

[@alextheman3330]

The amount of love and quality went into this design is amazing! Truly inspiring and incredible work!

[@BNuts]

Exia, Zeta, Sinanju 2.0, please. Or just anything with RG Frame Syndrome.

[@ChrisTian-sd5yq]

strike

[@razrafz]

most of the SEED kits like the freedom, SF, destiny

[@skilledwarman]

I'm really glad they did this longer video. Before this I wasn't really all that excited, but seeing exactly what's changing and the solutions they've found to multiple issues with the existant kits I'm very much excited and will be picking this up

[@tankeyuan7582]

nice to see they took every measure to ensure the stability of the kit and not make us live through the hell of posing RG rx 78 2

[@ThadDePadua9928]

Yo, Happy 45th Anniversary Pilots! Another day for usual Gunpla shenanigans. Sugoi. ;-;7

[@Watchful049]

This is cool and all and I like RX 78 as much as the next guy and I'm definitely getting this kit but here's hoping we also get an RG Char's Zaku II version 2.0 also.

[@t-dgg]

This is exciting, the new RG's are some of my favorite builds. Hopefully we'll be getting more and new versions of some of the old ones in the near future 🤞

[@Smilomaniac]

Bravo! I don’t trust those locking side circles, but the rest looks amazing!

[@rayanuki]

Love how the removed the head and left arm of the RG to match the anime, And yea. Pre-ordered 2 units because damn those inner frame

[@saladv3028]

I was worried about the torso stability because of the core fighter but that locking mechanism looks solid

[@Drout]

I love what they have done to improve the RX-78-2 from the previews version, but what i love the most is the inner Frame that it actually has mass and it looks more like a robot and not like the traditional old inner frame. No matter how many new gundams they introduce, their is something about the RX-78-2 that brings a presences and smiles to everyone. I wish they would do something like this to Mazinger Z, that would be cool.

[@joadarium9605]

Damn. Gotta give my RG 1.0 in my backlog a helluva send-off before welcoming this beauty to the world

[@RPS_FFRK]

A time when real mobile suits are made would be amazing and also scary.. Superb vid, and the quality innovations 💪👍

[@BigDoof12]

Absolutely incredible

[@sharkbaitcustoms6111]

Damn bandai, can we get some regular release MG too? RG and MGSD getting all the juicy stuff.

[@Windrave]

I swear all their research into actual robots are being done on this smaller scale. It's genius, really. 🤔 When the proper time comes for their robotics they'll blow everyone away.

[@WhiteWulfe]

Love just how deeply this suit has been redone. Here's hoping for a Zaku II v2.0 with just as much done to it ^_^

[@iliacdeleon1065]

[@Mafty_0105]

the RG Zeta 2.0 is becoming a reality

[@muhamadtaufiq3015]

Beautiful

[@blipblip]

It looks like they can easily make a GM variant of it like what they did to the HG Origin RX-78-2. I also love that it finally has the more updated fists and hand selections that is on par with the latest RG. Still not as good looking as some of the third party resin add on but good enough.

[@RareWhiteFox]

MG needs this type of dynamic pose possibility too.

[@StevenAbootman]

they need to make this into a GM

[@RonaldTambunan]

No more gold/copper gimmick at elbow and knee joints? Love the that small details on previous RG and MG ver 3.0

[@Rosmah_Mansor_Uwek]

Oversized it to mg size=perfection

[@CaneMcKeyton]

This thing outdoes the PGU in many ways

[@Sablenk87]

One little thing of a drawback is the eyes part is solid color plastic, it should be clear or there should be 3d decals, like in mg narrative, for the eyes.

[@kenshintakamura6596]

Ok, I'm sold.

[@notthatthenamematters6163]

Hope they also make a zaku rg, i always preferred its design over the grandad gundam, the roundness makes it look more "realistic"

[@argeljosephdig6633]

Oh shit it can put his knees down!

[@tanchuhong5097]

amazing, definitely will own it when it realease

[@moooky52]

they gave the core fighter an ab crunch this shit's crazy

[@GuiltlessGear]

since the first time I built the master grade Impulse gundam, iv'e always cursed that damn core splendor. I hated that gimmick so much, and wanted nothing more than a kit that ignored it entirely. Not even the High Grade revive was safe from it. This gives me hope that one day i can finally own a version of that kit that can work in spite of it.

[@NexuJin]
