Bring the brilliance of the Akatsuki Gundam from Mobile Suit Gundam SEED Destiny to life with this stunning Real Grade (RG) model kit! Featuring three types of gold plating, this kit accentuates the Gundam’s dazzling appearance with intricate details and multi-sided modeling for a sparkling finish.

The Oowashi Unit is fully equipped with articulated components like a movable nose, hatch, beam cannon, and wings that can adjust to various positions, allowing for accurate reproduction of its iconic form as seen in the anime. The Akatsuki Gundam features exceptional articulation, including a pull-out shoulder mechanism, extended hip joint range, and torso swing for dynamic poses. Its armor-linked sliding gimmicks in the arms and legs further enhance its realistic build.

This model is compatible with other kits like the HG 1/144 Destiny Gundam Spec II & Zeus Silhouette (sold separately). To install the Zeus Silhouette, the Zeus Silhouette Connection Parts from the "RG 1/144 Shiranui Pack for Akatsuki Gundam" (not included) are required.

A Pleasure to Build

This is the first kit I've built using gloves, and I would highly recommend anyone do the same! Not having skin oils all over the beautiful gold is worth it. The kit is dynamic and sturdy; both the suit and the included Oowashi. Both assemblies intermingle well with eachother, and care was definitely displayed in designing the Oowashi joints around the Akatsuki's form factor and ranges of motion. I've yet to experience any joint issues after posing the kit multiple times, and don't expect to as the included action base is excellently firm and does a great job supporting the kit's weight. Four stars because the included sticker decals look awful on the gold. Forgive the amateur photos and nub marks I just realized still exist under the knees.

A lackluster RG

Its surprising to have a RG 2.0 of the RX-78-2 come out that is one of the best kits to date, but then to follow it up with this gundam kit with an old frame seems to make zero sense. Does this kit look good, sure I suppose, but it being all gold with very little color separation around the kit, ultimately its just meh. Lets not even get into why this kit has stickers. Outside of the fact that the gold is a massive distraction youd barely notice stickers were on this kit if you even put them on. The leg issue is real and even after posing it a couple of times you begin to see the leg sag and not hold its own weight, so without some real work to tighten that up, my suggestion would be to pose it once and leave it alone. I really wouldnt recommend this kit.
