I remember buying the RX-78 G05 many donkey years back but was wondering why I did not buy the G04....It must be the same old color scheme (blue, white) that puts me off. Well since I love Gundam so much, I decided to buy this G04 in 2011.
Nothing fancy about this kit since this was released way back in 2003. And i notice that some of the decals in the box are in poor condition. When I tried applying one of those scratch on decal on the shield, it just broke into pieces (dried up)...I was hoping to find the water decal during my last trip in Tokyo but no luck...
Took almost a month to complete this with out of the box build and airbrushing. Used Mr Hobby Aqueous Hobby Color for the whole kit. Basic sanding was applied but no base was applied.
Articulation for the kit is average and it cannot be compared with the new MG release from Bandai. Even my 1/48 Mega Size RX-78 - 2 pose better than this....
