The latest incarnation of the Gundam in model kit form is here: the HG RX-78-02 Gundam (Gundam The Origin Ver.). As part of The Origin line, the RX-78 gets an upgraded HG kit, with more detail and gimmicks than you’d expect. In addition, you can choose one of two ways to build this kit: as the early- or mid-type RX-78-02.

We get treated to a back view of the completed model, and two front views; one for each type. Amuro also gets his own pilot profile on the side!

Her favorite lines are Hasegawa's Mechatro WeGo line, Meng's World War Toons Pinky line, and weird miscellany like Platz's bonsai tree kits. In general, if it's a detailed miniature that's too small to be useful for anything other than taking up space, she'll probably love it.

  1. Does look like a pretty cool Grandpa Gundam. Tempting.
