1/144 RX-78F00/E Gundam (EX-001 Glass Feather Equipped)

Release Date: March 3, 2025

Price: TBD

As part of the JAL x Gundam "Fly to the Future Project," an exclusive 1/144 RX-78F00/E Gundam (EX-001 Glass Feather Equipment) [JAL Special Package Ver.] will be released to celebrate the 2025 Japan International Expo (Osaka-Kansai World Expo). This limited-edition Gunpla is directly inspired by the RX-78F00/E Gundam featured in the "GUNDAM NEXT FUTURE PAVILION", an exhibition at the Expo that highlights the franchise’s forward-thinking themes of technology and innovation.

This special-edition model will not only embody the futuristic vision of Gundam but also integrate elements of JAL’s iconic aviation design.

A Special Gundam for a Historic Event

• The RX-78F00/E Gundam (EX-001 Glass Feather Equipment) is a new variation of the RX-78F00, originally designed for the GUNDAM FACTORY YOKOHAMA. This version, however, is tailored specifically for the Osaka-Kansai World Expo, incorporating a sleek, futuristic upgrade that aligns with the Expo’s themes of progress and innovation.

The Gunpla kit features:

• A highly detailed 1/144 scale model of the RX-78F00/E Gundam, allowing builders to recreate this special mobile suit from the GUNDAM NEXT FUTURE PAVILION.
• "Glass Feather Equipment"—a unique feature exclusive to this variant, symbolizing advanced technology and the theme of future possibilities.
• Special decals featuring JAL branding, making this kit a true fusion of Gundam and aviation.
• A JAL-exclusive package design, styled after the JAL Gundam JET, aligning with the broader "Fly to the Future" collaboration.

This model represents the connection between Japan's past, present, and future, as it celebrates both the legacy of Gundam and the global reach of JAL.
