Don't bother getting the 1/144 RX-78 Gundam GPO if you can get this one instead. With this kit you can built either version! This kit includes the nuclear missile launcher plus mlrs missile system you see on it's back as part of his armament. You can choose to have both missile pods or use the hand held missile launcher and three mrls missile tube launchers. The shoulder mounted thrusters is one of the best gimmicks for this kit I think. when you elevate the thrusters to flight position, the thrusters automatically angle themselves downward! That is pretty cool! The shield is gigantic and because of this, It's a little heavy for the hand/arm to hold by itself. You have to rest the shield on the floor for the kit to be able to hold it somewhat properly. It's a bulky kit which makes it lack poseability The detail is there throughout the kit. It's molded in a medium grey color along with subdued blue and red. The GPO2 looks good straight out of the box. Oh yeah, you can also store the nuc

This version of the GP02A Physalis is the same as the HGUC 066, except for the MLRS.
Articulation is basic, but pieces tend to pop off, like the shoulders or the fingers. The Atomic Bazooka is quite good for what it is. Though, the hand can't really pull off a decent pose with it. The real thing about the GP02A is its massiveness. With its sheer bulk and giant weapon, if you really like it, it can be a good choice, ignoring all the flaws it has.
