Review - RG 1/144 RX-178 Gundam MK-II

Hi welcome back (again) to another review of Gunpla...

The star for this post as mention in the title

GUNDAM MK-II!!!!

Yes... the main Gundam first use by Kamille Bidan before he changed to Zeta Gundam.... Which is weird since the anime should be named as Mobile Suit Gundam Mk-II LOL Whatever.... Lets proceed for the review of this awesome piece of artistry....



Inner frame

Since this is dubbed as Moveable Frame, the structural rigidity had increases compared to older kits of RG lineup. What I like about the frame was that the frame has many details compared to older MG inner frame (Freedom Gundam) *cough*




What to expect from RG lineup? Superb articulations... =D

Completed Model

After putting decals and panel lining, this kit was awesome. It did. I can say that this kit was better than the anime counterpart... It make the anime look dull and boring.






I can say, cutting the mesh for the piping was pain in the ass.... But totally worth it. It make this kit look better than MG Gundam Mk-II Ver 2.0


You can slide down the upper side of the shield to make it smaller ...



Beam rifle and Hyper Bazooka.... Look damn nice with the color separation. Damn that is the reason why I favor RG lineup than MG...

Fully equipped model






Lame paint job on Kamille since it was so small.... I paint it because UC era pilot suit were mostly white so it easier than SEED or 00







Die Titans!

Changing beam pack

Typical poses (but seriously since the legs were bulky this pose were awful for Mk-II)




What a long beam saber ... @_@

You can store the extra beam pack at the back of the shield

Extra missile pack can be put on the side of the waist

Look papa I am looking better than you do




Pros

- Nice set of decals
- Good articulation
- Good color separation
- I like the quality for the mesh of the piping

Cons

- Pegs on the beam rifle easy to break
- The vernier thruster on the booster keep falling....
- The waist have a limited articulation

Verdict

This kit was awesome. I do like this kit so much compared to RG Aile Strike Gundam since the structural rigidity was low.... However, i hate the fact that the thruster vernier always keep falling and since they was small parts, I am afraid that I could lose them easily. Nevertheless, I always keep suggesting to you guys, PLEASE BUY REAL GRADE!
You can't get so much detail on a PG at a scale of HG =D
