This is an unboxing review of an SDGO RX-78-2 Gundam figure. The only difference is that this one is a G3 rare color variation (a.k.a RX-78-3). It is technically the same as the regular RX-78-2 figure except for the colors. We got this from Toy Kingdom roughly 6 months ago back when only a few people care they exist. I was told that for each box of each type shipped, only 1 of this type can be found inside the box. Before we start the review, I just want to tell you that SDGO is basically a reincarnation of the SD Archive series Bandai had before.

Presenting RX-78-3

 

 

 

SHIELD

– the details are nicely painted… very minimal spills or rough edges…

– back of shield has nice details too..

– has a provision that connects the shield to the MS

 

 

 

WEAPONS!

 

 

 

CORE FIGHTER

– this can be inserted inside the MS

– just need to fold the wings and the cockpit

 

 

 

 

A rough attempt to show the limits of the ARTICULATION….

 

 

the shield provision when attached…

 

 

 

 

GEAR UP!!!

– articulation is very limited but is OK

– SD figures and articulation does not go hand in hand…
