About this figure

This is the RX-78-2 Gundam from Mobile Suit Gundam, a figure from the Ichiban Kuji lottery dating back to February 2006. The original Gundam, the suit that started the entire franchise, comes as a prize-tier figure from the kuji ticket draw. Ichiban Kuji figures run one lot per store, which kept each prize scarce even then. The figure released in 2006. It stands about six inches tall, PVC and ABS, non-scale. As a nearly two-decade-old kuji piece, this RX-78-2 is a genuine era artifact, the franchise's founding mobile suit in vintage prize form. For Gundam collectors it carries real history, the machine every later suit traces back to.
