MG RX-78 NT-1 Gundam

The MG RX-78 NT-1 Gundam, also known as "Alex," is a 1/100 scale Master Grade plastic model kit from BANDAI HOBBY, based on its appearance in the Mobile Suit Gundam 0080: War in the Pocket OVA series. This highly detailed kit represents the RX-78NT-1, a prototype Newtype-use mobile suit developed by the Earth Federation Forces. It is a Ver. 2.0 release, featuring a complete redesign with an updated inner frame structure and enhanced armor proportions, offering a faithful recreation of the mobile suit.

Key features of this Master Grade kit include exceptional articulation, allowing for a wide range of dynamic poses. It boasts double-jointed elbows and knees, a 360-degree rotating waist, and shoulder joints that can swing forward. The shoulder armors are designed to flip up, preventing interference with arm movement, and the manipulators are articulated. A unique vinyl material is utilized to create a realistic wrinkled texture around the shoulder joints. The kit also features an opening cockpit hatch, revealing a pilot figurine inside. The forearm Gatling guns can be deployed into firing mode, even when the Chobham Armor is attached, and the shield includes a jointed blue panel for clearance of these weapons.

The MG RX-78 NT-1 Gundam "Alex" is a snap-assembly kit, meaning no glue is required for the main construction. It is molded in color, providing a good representation of the mobile suit's appearance straight out of the box.

The kit includes a comprehensive array of accessories and parts:

• RX-78NT-1 Gundam "Alex" model kit
• Full Chobham Armor set, allowing for a "Full Armor" appearance
• Beam Rifle
• Hyper Bazooka
• Two Beam Sabers
• Shield, with an opening panel to accommodate the forearm Gatling guns
• Swappable V-fin antennae (normal and broken versions)
• Interchangeable hand parts, including trigger-finger, closed fist, open-palm, and multipurpose weapon-holding hands
• 1/100 scale sitting Christina Mackenzie pilot figurine
• 1/100 scale running Alfred Izuruha figurine
• 1/100 scale sitting Bernard Wiseman figurine

This product is ideal for Gunpla enthusiasts and collectors who appreciate highly detailed model kits with extensive articulation and numerous gimmicks. It is particularly suited for fans of the Mobile Suit Gundam 0080: War in the Pocket series, offering a rewarding building and display experience of the iconic RX-78NT-1 Gundam "Alex."
