Description
The Bandai MG 1/100 RX-78-4 Gundam G04 brings Gundam Unit 4 to the Master Grade Gunpla range. Seen in Mobile Suit Gundam Side Story: Space, To the End of a Flash, the G04 stands out through its blue-accented armour and imposing Mega Beam Launcher.
This model offers plenty to enjoy during assembly, from the Gundam’s mechanical detailing to the equipment surrounding its signature long-range weapon. Pre-coloured components reproduce the main colour scheme, while snap-fit construction means glue is not required.
What Grade Is This Gunpla?
This is a Master Grade 1:100 scale Gunpla model kit. Bandai’s MG range provides a larger build with detailed construction and articulated joints, giving builders more mechanical detail to assemble and greater freedom when posing the completed model.
This RX-78-4 uses polycaps throughout its articulated joints. It does not feature the complete internal frame found in some later Master Grade releases, but its construction still provides an involving project with detailed exterior armour, equipment and optional markings.
Why You’ll Like This
The Mega Beam Launcher gives the RX-78-4 Gundam G04 an unmistakable display presence. Its energy cable is represented by lead wire, while pull-out shoulder joints help the model hold the launcher with both hands.
The additional shoulder thrusters and propellant tanks can be removed, allowing you to recreate standard and enhanced equipment configurations. Detachable forearm beam guns and rear-leg thrusters reveal moulded mechanical detail at their mounting points. The backpack armour can also be removed to show the mechanical detailing beneath it.
The kit includes a Hyper Beam Rifle, two Beam Sabres and a folding shield, providing several display choices beyond the Mega Beam Launcher. Two sets of markings are supplied for adding further detail to the finished model. It is a rewarding choice for Universal Century fans, Master Grade collectors and builders drawn to the less commonly seen members of the RX-78 family.
