GD-16 RX-78 Gundam

Bought this beauty last month and absolutely forgot that I even have it, ebay was the place of purchase at a steal at 25 USD, what a price, was it a sale item that nobody wanted, I highly doubt so, well, just check him out!



Bandai Soul of chogokin Gundam series GD-16 RX-78 was released in 1999. Packed in styrofoam tray with all accessories neatly positioned, even though I was never a huge Gundam fan, but this one was an exception.

Standing roughly 4 inches tall the diecast contents not super fabulous compared to other chogokins (comparing to smaller GT series or any lightans), the upper chest and feets has metal content the rest is plastic.

Even with the lack of diecast, the poseability makes up for it, the elbow and knees hyper extend to make more detailed poses. Accessories includes 8 interchangeable fists, proton gun, sheild, Bazooka, 2 beam sabers, beam staff and iron mace.


Not a bad figure to have fun with, lotsa poseabilty and a number of accessories, no display stand but it came with a metal figure of Amuro Ray not a bad deal...overall, a simple robot for any chogokin fan....
