RG God GUNDAM

Table of Contents
The RG God Gundam is one of the most impressive Real Grade kits ever released, bringing incredible articulation, sleek proportions, and dynamic posing to the RG line. As Domon Kasshu’s iconic mobile suit from Mobile Fighter G Gundam, this kit is built for action, replicating its martial arts-inspired combat style perfectly. Let’s break it down.
Aesthetics
The RG God Gundam captures the sleek and agile look of its anime counterpart perfectly. The color separation is fantastic, with multiple shades of white, blue, and red to enhance depth. The gold accents on the chest, vents, and joints add a premium feel, while the clear orange parts for the God Finger effect bring extra visual flair.
Additionally, the proportions are perfect, avoiding the bulky look of older HG kits. The RG redesign balances realism with anime-style aesthetics, making it one of the best-looking God Gundam models ever made.
Gimmicks
Bandai packed this kit with several functional and mechanical gimmicks that make it stand out:
- God Finger Effect Parts – Clear orange parts for dramatic finishing moves.
- Expanding Rear Wing Units – The wings open up for the Hyper Mode transformation, creating a majestic silhouette.
- Advanced MS Joint System – Allows for fluid martial arts poses without compromising stability.
- Articulated Hands – Full finger movement, letting the God Gundam replicate real martial arts stances.
- Moving Shoulder Armor & Chest Parts – Armor shifts dynamically when posing.
Size
The RG God Gundam is about 13 cm (5.1 inches) tall, making it slightly shorter than most RGs but perfectly proportioned for its agile and sleek combat style.
Accessories
The RG God Gundam includes a solid set of accessories for dynamic action poses:
- Beam Sabers (x2) – Stored on the backpack and look great in action poses.
- God Finger Effect Parts – Clear orange pieces that enhance the fiery finishing move look.
- Hand Options – Multiple sets of hands, including closed fists, open palms, martial arts poses, and articulated fingers.
- Ring of Fire Effect (sold separately) – Can be used to recreate its signature finisher from the anime.
- No beam rifle or shield – But that’s true to the God Gundam’s hand-to-hand combat focus.
