BAN5063045 - Bandai MG 1/100 RX-0 Unicorn Gundam 02 Banshee

The first MG banshee, shares some design/engineering with the previous MG unicorn

The Bandai MG 1/100 RX-0 Unicorn Gundam 02 Banshee (5063045) is a premium Master Grade model kit based on the powerful dark counterpart of the Unicorn Gundam from Mobile Suit Gundam UC (Unicorn). Known as the “black lion,” the Banshee delivers a striking mix of aggressive design, transformation mechanics, and detailed inner frame engineering, making it a standout addition to any Gunpla collection.

This Master Grade kit features Bandai’s advanced inner frame system, allowing the mobile suit to transform between Unicorn Mode and Destroy Mode. In Unicorn Mode, the design is compact and sleek, while Destroy Mode dramatically expands the armor to reveal the psycho-frame underneath, creating a powerful and intimidating silhouette. The transformation system is carefully engineered to maintain stability and detail in both forms.

The Banshee’s design is defined by its black armor with gold accents, giving it a bold and regal appearance that contrasts sharply with the original Unicorn Gundam. The psycho-frame elements are distributed throughout the body and become visually prominent when activated, adding depth and realism to the model.

It is equipped with signature weapons such as the Armed Armor VN for devastating close-range attacks and the Armed Armor BS for ranged beam firepower. These weapons enhance both its combat aesthetic and display versatility, allowing for dynamic posing in action scenes.

With highly detailed molding, precise color separation, and complex mechanical design, the Bandai MG Unicorn Gundam 02 Banshee offers an engaging and rewarding build experience. It is ideal for experienced builders and collectors who appreciate transformation gimmicks, iconic Gundam UC designs, and premium Master Grade craftsmanship.
