The RX-78 Gundam is Katoki's first Gundam design, introduced for the first time in Sunrise's series of Mobile Suit Gundam 0079. Aside from being limited to a shield and a beam rifle as presented on the picture above, this mecha also has a fair inventory of weapons. The two poles on its backpack are actually beam sabers; tiny rifles are equipped on its forehead, shown as two holes on the side of its eyes; this mecha can also come to the battlefield with a giant rocket launcher.
For its 30th anniversary, Sunrise announced the construction of a real size Gundam in Japan. The construction ran from March 2009 to June 2009 and was dismantled in September 2009.
