Perfect Grade gundam kit can cost a fortune but for me its really worth its price. In previous post I’ve suggested you have a look at www.dalong.net if you want to see any Gundam Kit (unpainted) with a detailed review. Since the pages are all written in Korean, it’ll be great to see how the google translation deals with it. Wait… I’ll check it out

Well the translation certainly isn’t great but at least you get some idea of what the webmaster trying to say… which is better than nothing.

Back to the topic at hand. A perfect grade gundam kit stands at 3Ocm and the details are just amazing. All the joints are can be articulated and you can certainly pose the model in way imaginable. The only limitation being that some of the armor may hinder the movement of the internal skeleton.

Did I mention that each of the fingers can be articulated and movable? The external armors are removable and some of the hatches are able to opened and closed.

All of the models in Dalong.net are unpainted. It just doesn’t do justice for a model of that amount of detail to be left unpainted.. to me; it’s just not right. Another thing is that some of the more experience modeller (me; not one of them) use scribe pen to put more panel lining onto the visible armor plates. A scribe pen is a pen with needle like tip to etch the surface. You can buy it or you can make it yourself.

I’ve seen a blog that actually shows you how to make one of these scribe pens with old mechanical pencil and a needle.

Finally got around attaching a Youtube video review of RX-78 Perfect Grade Kit. Run a search for Gundam PG in youtube and you’ll get several video reviews of a Perfect Grade Gundam Kit.
