Bandai METAL STRUCTURE KAITAI-SHOU-KI RX-178 GUNDAM Mk-II (A.E.U.G.)

These are Gundam action figures from series such as MS in Action and HCM Pro. We dismantle the “milestone” that began the legacy of “Gundam.” The individual form that once existed there is sublimated into a more profound presence through the “dismantling” and “reconstruction” woven by master craftsmen. With the utmost luxury in materials, craftsmanship, and coloring, the “Dismantling Masterpiece” manifests the essence of time. We examine and analyze the role assigned to the Gundam Mk-II, then dismantle it. We reconstruct it using over 2,500 parts made from composite materials specifically selected for each section. Featuring textures that evoke the real thing and incorporating armor deployment mechanisms, it allows you to enjoy a variety of forms. Illumination gimmicks built into the main body and base, along with a mini-figure, create a sense of immense scale during maintenance. “Kaitai Shoki,” the premier brand of finished robot models, creates the Universal Century. “A Roadmap to Construction (Build) Called ‘Dismantling’?Dismantling the mobile suit bearing the name ‘Gundam,’ which was granted the title ‘Mk-II.’” The classic silhouette of the Gundam Mk-II. The new form of the “Gundam” exudes a powerful presence as the archetype for Mobile Suits, which would undergo explosive evolution from this point forward. The total height of this product is approximately 310 mm. The “High-Mobility Combat Form,” an original concept developed by Dismantling Master Machine. The layout of the thrusters on the backpack has changed, and armor panels throughout the MS open to simulate heat dissipation. By attaching the Gundam Mk-II to the central support pillar of the dedicated display stand and using the maintenance arms on either side of the stand, you can display it in a pose that evokes the image of mobile suit maintenance. Lighting effects in both the main unit and the stand enhance the atmosphere of the maintenance scene. The exclusive display stand includes a part reminiscent of a catapult, allowing you to display the model in the iconic launch pose seen in the series. The included mini-figure effectively conveys a sense of scale. The “Full Maintenance Form” provides an intuitive understanding of the “Movable Frame” structure, a defining feature of the Gundam Mk-II. Armor panels throughout the unit open, the chest jacks up, and the spherical cockpit is exposed. Rear view of the Full Maintenance Mode. To recreate the exposed armor, a vast number of parts and moving mechanisms have been incorporated, creating a sense of overwhelming detail. Exposed leg armor. The lower legs also feature a mechanism that extends and retracts the frame. In tandem with the frame’s extension and retraction, the frames around the thruster nozzles open and close in unison, serving as one of the highlights of this model’s mechanisms. Various standard Mk-II equipment items, designed for systematic operation, are included. The “Kaitaishouki” version also features numerous original design elements, such as the ability to attach a launcher to the beam rifle to create a short-barrel configuration. The undersides of some armor panels are painted “dark navy blue”?the Titans’ color. Additionally, the shield’s print features a design where the Titans’ emblem has been painted over, evoking the drama that occurred before it was put into service in AEUG colors. The arms and the base of the shield share a common unit design, allowing you to recreate the scene seen in the series where the “shield is attached directly to the chest.” While the quality of the product itself is a given, it also doesn’t neglect the emotional appeal for fans of the series.
