This special edition SD EX‑Standard model kit, released in mid‑2020, commemorates Gundam’s 40th anniversary and Hello Kitty’s 45th. It features a super‑deformed (SD) RX‑78‑2 Gundam along with a Hello Kitty head. Both are made with translucent “clear color” parts, lending the kit a distinctive, gleaming aesthetic. The Hello Kitty figure comes with a cute apple accessory and apple‑shaped base, which are also rendered in bright, clear red plastic for added charm.
What makes this kit particularly fun is its versatility: you can display the kit with Hello Kitty’s head or the original Gundam head. As part of Bandai’s SD EX‑Standard line, it sports improved articulation and shareable parts with HG 1/144 kits, though it does lean heavily on foil stickers for detailing.
