Tips & Tricks
For better results, some or most of the details are needed to be applied/panel-lined with Gundam Markers or Mr. Color paints.
Topcoat (Mr. Hobby recommended) can be used to protect applied stickers/marking decals and if any, painted details.
If using matte/flat-finish topcoat, it is advisable not to spray on the clear/translucent parts - can be done by masking or spraying topcoat while the said parts are separated.
The MG Custom Set for RX-78-2 Gundam Ver.3.0 can be used to upgrade this kit.
The Gunpla LED Unit Yellow (2 Unit Set) can be used for this kit.
