Bandai Model Kit HG 1/144 Gundam Thunderbolt RGM-79 GM
Infiltrate the devastated and hyper-militarised sectors of the Thunderbolt Sector with the articulated model of the RGM-79 GM (Thunderbolt Version). Based on the popular animated series Mobile Suit Gundam: Thunderbolt, this is a High Grade (HG) model in 1/144 scale. Specially designed by Bandai for fans of Japanese culture and Gunpla, this kit brings to life the Earth Federation's famous front-line robot, heavily optimised to survive the debris storms and electric arcs of this space war zone.
The robust, industrial silhouette of this mecha features simulated pleated fabric joint covers to act as a barrier against space dust, as well as a massive, over-armoured backpack system. Thanks to the modern engineering of the High Grade range, the model has total joint freedom to deploy its equipment and maintain stable postures in the vacuum of space. It's the ideal centrepiece for structuring your military squads and bringing a strong mechanical and historical presence to the heart of your collection showcase.
