Add a centrepiece from the Universal Century era to your collection with Bandai’s HGUC 1/144 RX-78GP03S Gundam Stamen model kit. This iconic kit (EAN code: 4573102609670) depicts the core of the Earth Federation’s ultimate weapon, designed to dock with the massive Dendrobium combat system.
The model stands out for its meticulous technical design, which eliminates the need for glue and paint thanks to its pre-coloured injection-moulded plastic. Bandai’s engineers have incorporated exclusive mechanisms into this unit, notably the extendable articulated arms (Folding Arms) housed within the forearms, faithful to their function of retrieving weapons from containers as seen in the anime. The sleek design of the backpack incorporates the iconic thrusters, enabling dynamic and fluid flight poses. Sturdy and highly articulated, this Gunpla is perfect for recreating the saga’s intense space battles.
