this was my first gunpla (only finished it last week) and i love it to bits. it’s really cool to hear an expert talk about what really makes this kit good. the one thing i will say is that i’ve found that the beam axe handle doesn’t actually stay in the hand that well, and even knocking it a little bit will detach it from the hand, but that might just be mine i guess? all i’ll say is it’s big, it’s red, it looks badass, it was a fantastic intro to the hobby for me. thank you for this video!

The high grade proportions are still great, people that say the real grede makes the high grade irrelevant clearly haven't seen the movie or don't have appreciation for the anime design in my personal opinion. Props for makin the RG not look loke the MG but the MG looks better as a "realistic rendition" better, still probably gettin the RG tho

The MG Ver.Ka and RG both look really cool, but it does get boring seeing nothing but them around. This little(?) guy really is the best rendition of the animation Sazabi without additions like the opening armor

I bought this particular kit specifically for its anime design :) . Plus it fits better with the rest of my HG char kits.

Great stuff to watch while I'm building my own kits :)

I love this kit more than the RG. It has the best proportions of any Sazabi (aside from the original Wave 1/100 vinyl kit) and it comes the closest to matching the red. The build is also just sublime.

I agree. The rg torso is too squished while the hg and both the mgs have the signature bulky torso that gives a commanding presence that is fitting for the main man char himself who is at this era the highest commanding officer of his force. The hg proportions reflect that while having some hint of "sleekness" that implies its high manueverability to it that really does reflect the character

@@mudmux Sadly, no. I've tried using pieces of plastic wrap around the ball joint itself for more friction, but that doesn't work. I even tried adding thin layers of glue on the joint and poly cap (while keeping them separated from each other until the glue dried) to increase friction, but that didn't work either. Nothing I've done works, and I think that's mostly due to how the ball itself is designed. It's got an odd oval shape compared to the proper round shape of other ball joints.

While I love the Ver. Ka and the RG. I mostly prefer this version! That's mostly because I'm not a fan of how overly designed and detailed they are. It's the same reason why I'm not a fan of the Gundam Unicorn design, it's just too overly panel lined and there's shit everywhere! While I don't hate all overly designed stuff, cause I do love The O, Nightingale, and XI Gundam! It's just, something about them really throws me off.
