Story & Background: The RX-178 Gundam MK-II is a successor to the original RX-78-2 Gundam, developed by the Titans during the events of Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam. The MK-II was later captured by the Anti-Earth Union Group (AEUG) and used as a pivotal mobile suit in their fight against the oppressive Titans. The AEUG's white-and-blue version of the MK-II became a symbol of rebellion and resistance, piloted by key characters like Kamille Bidan and Emma Sheen. It features improved mobility and technology over the original Gundam, including the introduction of a movable frame that enhances its combat versatility.

Key Features:

• Real Grade Detailing: The RG Gundam MK-II (AEUG) features intricate mechanical detailing, multi-layered armor separation, and realistic textures that elevate its appearance beyond traditional 1/144 scale kits. The crisp white, blue, and red AEUG color scheme is faithfully reproduced, giving the MK-II an eye-catching and iconic look.
• Advanced Articulation: Built around a fully articulated inner frame, the Gundam MK-II RG allows for a wide range of dynamic poses. The highly flexible joints and enhanced articulation ensure that the mobile suit can be displayed in action-packed stances, whether in combat or flight mode.
• Comprehensive Armament: The Gundam MK-II comes equipped with its full suite of weapons, including a Beam Rifle, Beam Sabers, Bazooka, and Shield. Each weapon is intricately detailed and can be mounted or posed in various configurations. The Beam Sabers can be stored on the backpack, while the Shield is adjustable for different battle poses.
• Movable Frame: The MK-II’s design is built around a movable inner frame, which adds flexibility to the limbs and torso. This allows for natural movement and ensures stability during posing, making it possible to recreate iconic scenes from Zeta Gundam with ease.

The included water slide decals add further detail, featuring realistic markings, insignias, and mechanical details to enhance the mobile suit’s overall look.
