Bandai Spirits is selling the RG 1/144 Ground Type Gundam from the 08th MS Team, a fully detailed Real Grade kit with a new mold and a pop-out weapon rack for a 180mm cannon. Pre-orders opened August 26.
The Real Grade line has finally produced a kit for the Ground Type Gundam from the 08th MS Team, a mobile suit that had not previously appeared in the series. Bandai Spirits opened pre-orders on August 26 for the RG 1/144 Ground Type Gundam, a kit built on a completely new mold with the detailing standard for Real Grade releases. Its centerpiece is a weapon container that stores a disassembled 180mm cannon on a dedicated rack, which pops out when a side protrusion is slid. The kit also includes a ground effect parts set for displaying the shield.
The announcement follows another Real Grade collaboration kit, the RG 1/144 RX-178 Gundam Mk-II (Keroro Spec), sold through Bandai's Premium Bandai store. That kit uses a color scheme inspired by Keroro Gunsou and includes packaging illustrated by Mine Yoshizaki plus an original marking sticker sheet. It costs 4,180 yen including tax and ships in October 2026. The two kits together show the Real Grade line expanding across both mainline mobile suits and crossover merchandise.
