It features:- New realistic sticker detail
- Transformable core fighter
- Internal frame
Internal frames are usually found on 1/100 or larger models. Could this RG RX-78-2 be the 1st in the line of many? Perhaps the Gundam Exia or Wing Gundam may follow? GA Graphic was able to take photographs of the model on display at Shizuoka Hobby Show 2010. On display were the completed model and runners, as well as the fully articulated internal frame.
