Product Description
This item is a posable, high-grade or better injection-plastic kit of an item from the Gundam universe. It does not require either cement or paint to complete or use. 739 parts. 31.5cm high when completed.
The PG Wing 0 Custom was quite an accomplishment for the engineering staff at Bandai. But they are not the type to sit idly by and so they created this masterpiece - the Perfect Grade Gundam Mk. II, Lets start with the package - in a word - huge!. Over 739 parts on 30 trees of injection molded and ABS plastic. 2 books - one on the construction and one on the history of the mech with color art. A very large press-on markings sheet that is unbelievably detailed. To finish it off - a non-region encoded DVD featuring CGI footage of the mech in action plus numerous still and detail photos which is well worth the price of this kit.
The skeleton of this kit is amazing. Made from ABS plastic and fully articulated with all the hydraulic pistons molded in metal-like chrome. This skeleton system is similar to that found in the new MG G Gundam kit and is very sturdy without the tendency to slip like earlier kits. The covering armor is totally removable and easily attached.
All parts are pre-colored and like all other PG kits it simply snaps and screw together. However painting of the parts will greatly enhance the appearance.
This is Bandai's most amazing kit to date. I wonder what they will do for an encore?

The most mechanically correct perfect grade.
By D. Chung
Granted the Gundam Mk-II looks dated, but if you long for a deeper understanding of the mechanical design of a Gundam, look no further and get this kit ASAP. Although Gundams are fictional, all the design elements of this kit makes physical and mechanical sense, as they are there not just for the sake of design or to look cool. Take its shoulder armor for example. Most Gundam models will have the arm attach to the body by a pin, with the shoulder armor sandwiched in between free floating. This is true even for most of the Perfect Grade kits out there, which is cool for design but make no mechanical sense. The PG Mk-II however changed this, as its shoulder consisted of a L-shaped frame attached to the arm making rotations much smoother. In addition, most parts of the arm and legs, saved the hip, ankle, or the wrist joints, are lock together not by poly caps, but by grooves or slots fitted together, making the internal frame very secure. I built this kit as my first Perfect Grade, and all the other kits I built since from the line up just didn't seems up to the Mk-II standard, mechanically speaking (and yes, I have every single PG kits.) My bottom line to you is that if you can only pick one kit from the PG line up, get the PG Gundam Mk-II and be amazed.

By Geoffrey Greene
Got Exactly what I paid for. it was everything that i expected it to be and some that I didn't expect.What really threw surprise my way was how tall it actually was in this scale. This one can take some "punishment" when it comes to putting it into poses (using both hands on the rifle, drawing a beam saber, shielding the cockpit). And the wiring inside was a lot more simpler then some of the other PG models that I have.
