Gunpla TV revs up this week with a look at two decidedly non-Gundam related kits! Todd has been busy preparing for the upcoming Shizuoka Hobby Show and shows off what he has built that will be on display there. First up from VeryFire is a ‘what-if’ German Battleship: the H-class (H-39) Hutten! He’s got another German item, too: a 1/2 scale BMW R90 S motorcycle engine with movable parts!
In this episode:
– 1/2 BMW R 90 S-Boxermotor
– 1/700 German Battleship H-class Hutten
– 1/144 HGAC Maganac
– 1/100 MG Ex-S Gundam/S Gundam

Wow, the detail and mechanics on those kits are awesome! Wish we could get stuff like that in Gunpla too!!

To answer Todd’s question according to Gundam Wikia: The name means “family” or “relative” from the Tagalog word, mag-anak (inspired by the Filipino and Arab workers in the middle east, specially, Saudi Arabia, most of them are engineers) so basically they are like family as a unit.

Sad that all the maganac variant is pbandai,
At least the maganac itself is looking really good

The engine having a history section in the instruction booklet is nice. Kinda wish Bandai would do that. Line art, a few quotes from the designers of the kit, where the inspiration and names come from that sort of thing. Maybe it’s just me, but I’d find that fascinating.
Plus, it gives me a reason beyond potentially ordering replacements with the codes to horde the manuals…

What is this nonsense? Where are my robots!?
Did you have to mention MAGA? I dunno about anyone else, but I’d like it if politics was left out.
I do hope we’re back to looking at Gundams and robot girls soon enough, real military and replica kits are not really my thing.

I wasn’t expecting Todd to show up with a classic motorcycle engine, and boy did my jaw drop when I saw the gears and pistons start moving.

Big boxes… and hey, happy holidays.

You didn’t mention Karina in this episode. Will be there review of her? Like her and her ‘male’ counterpart LBX together.

I didn’t even know this kind of kits existed. Quite interesting.

Guess it will be in PG box.

These non-mecha episodes might not get the same views, but the stuff that gets shown off is always fascinating. Thanks for showing this off!

No gunpla review today. Looking forward to the Maganac.

loved both the ship and the engine but can’t wait to see the Ex-S/S Gundam and the Deep Striker together plus looking forward to the new RG Nu Gundam

im exited to see how the LBCS: Achilles Mikaduki Karina looks all put together. i was holding back on getting her since it’s a new line. in case you build it up can you check on how good in the chest ball joint, since many F.A.G have some issues with that.
JumpNShootMan
Looking forward to seeing the LBCS kit built. Bandai also brought back their LBX kits with updated parts, might be worth checking them out too.
