1/100 MG RX 78-2 One Year War Ver

There are so many RX 78 variations and this is one which I liked most. The other one version whereby many will be interested in is the version 3 which will be released this year. While waiting for v3, lets take a look at this near completion One Year War version.

This version comes with lots of panel lines and if you are using panel washing method, it will be pretty nice. I use Tamiya Panel Line Accent Color for the panel markings and the result is equally good.

Articulation is also very good for this model except the ankle. This version comes with a varieties of weapons (Beam rifle, Bazooka, Chained ball) unlike v3 which is only available for online ordering.

Top coat has not been applied though and that will probably have to wait till I am back from Japan.
Here are some photos for sharing and yes, there is a Gouf ver. 2 in the last 2 pictures awaiting for decals to be applied.
