This is the best kit I ever had. I wish all kits were made like this. It’s so sturdy. Most other kits fall apart with little movement. Especially the Epyon I had to glue some parts. Other kits I put pieces of paper in joints to keep arms or legs from falling off and not feel so loose. I don’t know who designed this kit, but they got good engineering skills.
It was the gray part of the joint. Just make sure all the parts that you need to put on the arm frame are on it before you start moving it around. Be careful when flexing the arm still. After it is all loosened up then you shouldn't have any problems with the arms.
+Dovakhiinification You mean 3.0 or The Origin? That depends on your taste! Both are fantastic kits. For me, I think The Origin looks more unique, cool, and has better weapons and accessories. For me, the 3.0 just looks like a 1/100 scale of the RG.
My first RG. I really, really like this kit, but because of my butterfingers I've had a problem with both eye stickers (the solid one and those where you have to apply eyes separately) so I ended up painting them. But then I broke the V-fin and even after gluing and sanding it down the connection between two parts was visible so I painted it gold.
I have the RG Wing Gundam EW and another one in HLJ warehouse.. but I still haven't built it yet. I've been trying to get another Drei Zwerg set for it. Going for a look I have seen in the GoL Manga. I have built the RG Wing Zero EW before I thought it was good. It is of course even more awesome on an action base.
this is easily my least favorite RG MS joint out of all of the RG kits I've built. I know you've already recorded the review for this but some warning about the frame for future reference. the ball joints at the elbows suck, they pop out all the time so be careful when posing the arms. also absolutely don't use the RG hands, the wrists on them are shorter than the fixed pose hands and the ball joint on the RG hands is slightly bigger. as a result if you use the RG hands you'll over extend the ball joint for the wrist which means whenever you use the fixed pose hands they'll be limp wristed.
Good thing I haven't put in the RG hands once! Haha thanks for the tip. I mentioned in the review how pointless the RG hands are for this kit when we have closed fists, weapon holding hands, and open hands already.
ZakuAurelius well to be fair RG hands always look better when you pose a kit with beam sabers, mainly because the holding/trigger hands are super huge compared to the RG hands. this is why I usually give my RG kits the RG hands if they'll hold the kits weapons, I just don't like how big the holding/trigger hands are.
i broke one of the arms the first time built this because my brain decided to fart. had to buy a whole new wing kit to finish the first kit. Now i don't real know what to do with all these extra parts lol. fun kit...
+Armageddon3035 don't worry the RG is the EW version, the HG is the TV version. it would be really cool to get both and have two different versions of the same mobile suit posed together.
Armageddon3035 and that makes sense considering Gundam Wing and Power Rangers both came out in the 90's. if you're curious what the EW version of Wing Gundam looks like here's a link to the box art. i1275.photobucket.com/albums/y457/ultimatekuuga92/TOYNEWS2016/GUNDAM2016/RG_1-144_WING_GUNDAM_EW_49_JAN2016_BANDAI_2700.jpg~original

The wing zero rg is the best or mg wing zero which one?
I almost got this kit on Saturday, but went with the 00 Raiser
Good choice!
+Munchell360 good choice. the 00 Raiser is a significantly better kit.
+ZakuAurelius Only problem is that I seem to have lost a piece....
Munchell360
what part?
+Jango The Blue Fox One of the front blue bits that covers the yellow vents on the chest
A wonderful kit, this is my favorite version of Wing Zero as well, I hope an MG 2.0 gets made someday.

Which is better rx-78-2 gundam ver.3 or the origin ver?
+Dovakhiinification You mean 3.0 or The Origin? That depends on your taste! Both are fantastic kits. For me, I think The Origin looks more unique, cool, and has better weapons and accessories. For me, the 3.0 just looks like a 1/100 scale of the RG.
+ZakuAurelius thankss

What technique do you use for nub removal?
Hobby knife and sanding sticks
+ZakuAurelius awesome thank you!
I might.. might buy this today at my hobby shop.
I do really like the two tone white and blue on this kit It's a nice updated look imo.
Barely exists, but yeah it's there! Haha

U can give me the rest of the kit, and I can build it, even thought it will miss the arm and a shoulder pad
Send it to him! Or send it to me! It would be perfect for making a battle-damaged / destroyed build. Similar to how the Gundam ends.
+Byron Rodriguez what exactly did you break?
+Jango The Blue Fox i think he literally snapped off a while arm😂
Mikhail Armanuel
if he did then that would be very surprising.
Can i have the decals ?
Nope, buy the kit with your own money, or just buy the decals online
2021?
The arm snapped at the elbow joint
could I have the stickers pls
Could i have the sticker
+Nguyen Khoanam Yes! Send me a message here or on Facebook with your mailing address!
Def a good kit but back heavy
Of course! But it is able to stand on its own if you position the wings correctly to balance the weight.
wait they just released the RG Wing Gundam? oh man i just got the HG version. oh well still a pretty cool kit.
Yep! I'm reviewing this older one before doing the new one.
+Armageddon3035 don't worry the RG is the EW version, the HG is the TV version. it would be really cool to get both and have two different versions of the same mobile suit posed together.
Jango The Blue Fox oh okay. i personally like the design of the HG version just because it reminds me of a Megazord.

Jango The Blue Fox yeah i've seen it already.
