Key Features
This model kit faithfully replicates the Mobile Suit's intricate transformation mechanism, allowing it to switch between its Unicorn and Destroy Modes. Additionally, the Destroy Unchained form, which involves a greater expansion of the armor panels, can be represented. The Psycho-Frame is molded in a light-concentrating clear green plastic, designed to be illuminated by a separately sold LED unit.
The main attraction is the expanded equipment, which allows for the mounting of all three shields and six Beam Gatling Guns in a funnel-like formation, using dedicated joint parts and a display base. Despite its complex engineering, the assembled model's articulation is limited due to the weight and transformation mechanisms, functioning primarily as a static display piece.

About the RX-0 Unicorn Gundam
The RX-0 Unicorn Gundam is the key Mobile Suit in the Earth Federation's "UC Project," designed by Anaheim Electronics to locate Laplace's Box. Its structure incorporates a Full Psycho-Frame, allowing its Newtype pilot, Banagher Links, to control it with unprecedented response speed. Its primary combat system is the NT-D (Newtype-Destroyer), which activates Destroy Mode upon detecting a Newtype enemy.
The final battle version represents the Unicorn's "awakened" state, which manifests during the series' climax. In this state, triggered by the perfect synchronization between Banagher and the unit, the Psycho-Frame shifts from red to green, symbolizing that the pilot has transcended the system's programming to use its immense power for protection rather than destruction.
This Perfect Grade is the ultimate representation of the Unicorn Gundam's final form. What are your thoughts on this P-Bandai reissue? Let us know in the comments below!
