MG 1/100 RX-78-4 Gundam G04 – Master Grade Plastic Model Kit
Gundam Unit 4 Takes to the Battlefield
Add the RX-78-4 Gundam G04 to your Universal Century collection with this MG 1/100 model kit from Bandai Spirits. Appearing in Mobile Suit Gundam Side Story: Space, To the End of a Flash, Gundam Unit 4 is an experimental development of the RX-78 line, distinguished by its blue-accented armour and enormous Mega Beam Launcher.
Originally released in 2003, the G04 represents an earlier generation of Master Grade engineering, offering a detailed and characterful 1/100 build without the complete internal-frame construction found in many later MG kits.
Heavy Firepower & Optional Equipment
The centrepiece is the Mega Beam Launcher, an oversized ranged weapon connected using a flexible lead-wire energy cable. The kit also includes a Beam Rifle, two Beam Sabers, forearm-mounted Beam Gun and folding shield, giving the finished G04 plenty of display options.
The additional shoulder thrusters and propellant tanks can be removed, allowing the model to be displayed either in its enhanced space-combat configuration or in the cleaner standard G04 form.
Why Add Gundam G04 to Your Collection?
- Mega Beam Launcher: Includes the G04's defining oversized weapon with flexible energy cable.
- Two Display Configurations: Detachable shoulder thrusters and propellant tanks allow standard and enhanced forms.
- Complete Weapons Loadout: Includes Beam Rifle, twin Beam Sabers, forearm Beam Gun and folding shield.
- Pull-Out Shoulder Joints: Designed to improve two-handed weapon poses.
- Detailed Backpack: Removable exterior panels expose mechanical detailing underneath.
- Classic Master Grade Build: A distinctly early-2000s MG design with polycap articulation rather than a modern full inner frame.
- Dry-Transfer Markings: Includes decals and markings for adding additional detail to the finished model.
How to Build
The MG RX-78-4 Gundam G04 is a good choice for builders wanting a classic Master Grade experience without the extreme complexity of newer MG releases.
Colour-separated snap-fit parts mean painting and glue are not normally required, while panel lining and the supplied markings work particularly well across the white and blue armour. Careful cleanup around the larger weapons and shoulder equipment will help give the finished kit a particularly clean appearance.
