This kit is the 1/144 RX-78F00 Gundam High Mobility Type, released as a Gundam Factory Yokohama exclusive. Based on the 1/144 RX-78F00 Gundamthat was released earlier in 2022, it adds the High Mobility Type armaments to the lineup — including additional chest/leg armor, a backpack, and weapons.
The basic frame of the body itself is identical to the 1/144 RX-78F00 Gundam, and it still delivers solid joint strength and decent articulation. The only change to the body itself is the instep cover parts, which have been swapped out for the Prototype style. The newly added High Mobility Type armaments show off precise detail and a tight, secure fit. Thanks to the distinctive over-detailing and panel lines, it feels like the kit has been elevated into something even more elaborate and refined.
All in all, this is a well-made HG-class kit with consistently solid quality — and honestly, the styling alone is enough reason to build it. Definitely a fun one to enjoy. :-)
