The preceding Gundam model RX-78-1 and the subsequent model RX-78-3 were designed by Okawara between 19 for Gundam Century and Mobile Suit Variations and the latter appeared in the novel version as the G-3 Gundam after the original Unit 2 was destroyed in battle. The 'original' Gundam, the RX-78-2 design was to be the second unit in a line of eight prototype high-performance assault-type mobile suits.

However, Sunrise disapproved of the colouring and insisted the unit to be painted in brighter colours to attract attention, like other super robot anime at that time. Tomino's response in the novel version of Gundam is that the original design was to be a grayscale machine, made up of mostly white and light gray colouring. Okawara created multiple designs before settling on the current, samurai-styled design for the anime in 1979.Įnemies in the series keep referring to the RX-78-2 as the white suit or the White Devil (due to the suit's formidable battle performance) while it is a mix of blue, red, and white. The series later changed its name to Mobile Suit Gundam and Kunio Okawara was given Tomino's concept to shape into a finalized design for the anime.

The RX-78's initial concept was that of a powered armor, the primary design for Yoshiyuki Tomino's proposed series Freedom Fighter Gunboy.
