Where’s the masterpiece shield liger, show me its glory Sid
Xevonn
Great episode guys, think that bandai will release some of the other kits from thunderbolt? Such as the gouf from the side story?
mrpenguinx
Ordered the 1/100 Grimgerde last week, looks like I got a lot to look forward too!
Neon Wave
I could really use that Denial Gundam. I have the Cathedral Gundam (it’s what the Denial is based on), and I would love to put the effect parts on it.
Energylegz
Great episode that 1/100 Grimgerde looks sick, I had kitbash ideas for the Denial gundam, and the Guntank. Really hoping I win one.
mr_supornchai

well here goes another week of my anxious anticipation…. hehehe…
cheers guys & (Todd too 🙂 )…Great Show!!!
Tsorovan
1/100 Blue Destiny Unit 1 when? Efreet needs somebody to fight. Why, Bandai? WHYYYYYYYYYYY? They always leave these huge, obvious gaps in their lineups.
Sazabi.lord
Other than the thunderbolt Master grade is any one else excited to see a Real grade sinanju? Cause I’m waiting patience for it to be announced.
superdah
Junyaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!!!!!

Can’t wait for your review of the Freedom 2.0, I’ve been hearing good things about it.
And if there is a Zaku 3.0, Bandai shut up and take my money.
Febry11
Great episode… can I win any of the kits? I never win anything … so, it would be nice if I finally get to win something…
NovaTreeBush
Hnnng, that Grimgerde looks so good.
Stellarium Celestia
You know what they say, “Denial isn’t just a river in Egypt, it’s also a Gundam.” :p
leon
just give us the 3.0 char !!
_bMd_
Have you heard of and do you like the Mythbusters? They have a Youtube channel group Called Tested and they’ve been talking about building a couple Gunpla Kits.
Evangera
tfw u in denial the denial is undeniably sleek af
Karyu
I want the Denial for my kitbash project!!!
Anthony

Todd can we get a sieg zeon from you!?
Aya Fujimiya
Great episode Guys and Congrat to Ryan for the Twins
Ahmed Yassin
dat rabbit gunpla thou
Slater4u
The RE/100 Efreet makes me sad because it’s another RE kit that has those crappy HG hands. They gave the Nightingale the emotion manipulator hands(which they aren’t using enough of in MG kits), so why not the other REs? Make it happen Bandai, right meow!
Yellowist
Wasn’t expecting to be picked! Action base and a whole lot a extra parts for scratch building and kit bashing. I am pleased. Thanks guys!
Stargazer
RE Efreet looks pretty good
Kamira
I have a denial gundam already, and it was the first kit i painted up. It wasn’t up to my standards. Hope i get that denial so i can “try” again.
NuDakine
scooby dooby dooooo!
Manpig
A bit disappointed that I didn’t win the Rinascita. Oh well, there’s always next time.
That Efreet looks awesome, it’s a bit of a shame that it’s articulation isn’t great, but at least it still looks cool. Hoping that I get that Guntank, the denial is cool too I guess. XP
Sup3rSPEED
That Efreet looks sick!
Kookieslayer
That MG Psyco Zaku is going to be insane!
MidnightDreamer
Swaggy episode! Hoping to win the Denial Gundam or gun tank.
DL76
” I heard that about you” LMAO!!!!!!!
sparkyhavoc
i need at least two Efreet. one normal and one nacht. that Grimgerde is amazing. please let me win my Guntank!!

can’t wait for the MG ‘murica 2.0 review, details look good and I’m expecting that it would be as good as the mg rx-78 origin on a mechanical aspect
tmluna01

rx-0 viper
1/100 Grimgerde !!!!!!!!!
Lieutori
The Grimgerde and Efreet look fantastic. Can’t wait for the RG Quanta that will come out this month too!
LeSpaz
I wonder if you guys will stream/ build the RG Qan[T] when it comes out, I can’t wait to get it. Also I’m in Denial about winning this time but I Gun-Tank you anyways for the opportunity.
tobeseenfull
i would very much enjoy more updated kits like the hyaku shiki. I hope see a double zeta, how amazing would that be. P-bandai full armor set.
Black Lotus
i see that you did a comparison of the Gouf r35 and the gouf revive, but Tod can you do a comparison with the gouf custom (http://hlj.com/product/BAN965503/Gun) articulation i think it is obsolete, it on look, in my opinion it look better then all. Great episode and thank you for the reviews
maximusZ09
That Efreet and Grimgerde…
Especially the Grimgerde, That is one of the most awesome Frame in the IBO
Efreet however, seems to be short of long-range weapon there
Piermon Ver. Ka
i love the Grimgerde!
AoAkumaFart
DAT GRIMGERDE THOUGH…
horsie
what kind of turbo nerd complains about free kits, built or not.
RazorConcepts2
Can’t wait for the live show!! But I don’t think we really need a 3.0 zaku… the 2.0 is tough to beat
Diggy Stock
THAT GRIMGERDE IS SICK! Great show guys!
Souljin
Awesome episode guys!!! Love the design of the efreet custom!!! Love to win the guntank as i do not have any kits from origin.
Radja Gurning
Can you do bandai vs bootleg in the next episode and can you review the gundam astaroth

Nick
Looks like I need to ship my Grimgerde and Efreet now rather than waiting for the Revive Gyan and Origin Zaku I…
UrielVentris
Wow I thought the Efreet was gonna be kinda plain but it looks awesome. Im pretty much a MG/PG guy but it kinda makes me want to take a second look at the RE/100 kits.
Also my Ver KA Ball came today from HLJ! Time to customize it into something crazy!
crossfadeking
my fingers are crossed for a PG char z’gok.
Spitz
Guntank sounds kinda dumb, all tanks come with guns by default dont they?
BlackXFrost
Efreet custom and Grimgerde look sick!
Looking forward MG Psyco Zaku and FA-78 ver ka, they would be amazing together!
Black-Spade
I just want that Denial Gundam! GIMME GIMME GIMME!

Flamezombie

GREYWOLF-HGX
just give me anything
anythingggggggg!!!!!!
Raid
The Efreet has sorta grown on me since they announced it. And I never made the connection between Final Fantasy’s Ifrit (in the English translations) and Efreet!
Vin.kam037
Congrats to Ryan and another great episode. I was waiting for someone would make a Thunderbird reference and it came on smooth. The Shizuoka Hobby Show, what model kits that Bandai and other companies are coming out, I can’t wait? Just for now, I am waiting for the Iron Blooded Orphan’s Gundam Astaroth to be release and you guys doing a review on it. As always keep up the good work and stay awesome!
randomking0x70
Is your twin also into Gunpla? I’m trying to get my twin into Gunpla, but he doesn’t really have the time nor the patience for it.
Computron34
I fell in love with that 1/100 Efreet from the moment it was announced. Man is that thing sexy.
Artiq40
I never won a contest from hlj before, but i wont guve up! Give me the hg!
LewdSenpai
A full tank of freedom.
chizace
I love gunplatv!!!
CasLun
Great episode guys. I could say something else but im 2 lazy.
Tim48o
I want to see them automate an entire kit with that robotic leg tech they showed off last year.
Duo Waltfeld
Hahah, an episode is always better with a bit more Todd =D
Really hoping to get the Denial if I get any of them, I already have the Try Burning Gundam and it would be fantastic to make a scene with them! Sorry Guntank, I was just never really that into you…
CasLun
I still remember the SEXY grandaddy gundam.
Lullerun
Man, the Gouf R35 has a such a cool design. I think it’ll become the gateway into Zaku-style mechas for me. Welp, I figure I need to save up another 1275 yen then.
Oh and if I’m selected, I’d appreciate the Denial. Unless the other person wants it since I have one, but my dog shredded my box for it which kills my collector’s soul and I don’t think I’ll ever repurchase the denial just for the box. It’s a great kit and all but I don’t think I’ll use any of it’s parts for any custom models, so it’d be a waste of prime nihon plastic.
artdrag
cool ep guys i figured the new gouf would reuse the r35
swasabi ver ka extra flavor
love that efreet box art! gonna get the tunderbolt ver. ka for sure when it comes xD
Angel
It would be awesome to with that Origin kit!!!
Also do you think they will ever make an MG Leo or Aries from the Gundam Wing series? I think it would be a cool addition.
Tsorovan
Leo is on the list of likely RE100s coming up. That’s probably the best we’re ever going to get. They’ve came through with the Efreet, so maybe we’ll get all of the suits in that one promo picture. If they go in order that they placed the suits on that picture, the next one will be GM Sniper II or Xi.
Moldrunner
I love the original Zeonframes and I would lineup for a new MG Zaku V3.0 for sure. The last great was the Geara Doga. I am often looking at hlj to find the Zaku-type-kit of my choice, but they are all kind of aged.
Actually how outdated is the PG Zaku, since BANDAI went a long way of developement since it came out?
I not intend to build the same Gundam over and over again and end up with 10 different Zaku-II, or different types, wich are almost the same with just another weaponpack. But i absolutly have to have one.
Tohofuhai
Great episode guys, might be my imagineation but the Grimgerde kind of reminds me of the Enact from Gundam OO :p
Bee
I thought that Shizouka was during the last weekend of May so unfortunately I arranged my trip to Tokyo on the wrong dates, just missing the event so I’m really looking forward to your broadcast. In the mean time I hope that I can win the gun tank ^_^
TheIrishLizard
Oh my sweet Gundam, I can’t believe I missed the pictures of the FA Gundam Ver Ka. Thanks for reminding me! 😀
Great episode guys!
Quasar
I’m definitely with Tedd on the Barbatos design, I was quite disappointed when they did that countdown teaser thing.
Kier Rallos
Everybody is dreaming and talking about the Char’s Zaku II 3.0 while I’m here wishing and waiting that Bandai may gave us Z’Gok 2.0!!!
Come on please! Z’Gok 2.0! or even an RG GP02!!
Don Saulus
Great show!!
Maltese Cross
Hi guys! Thanks for this episode but really looking forward for the next one to see the review of the new Freedom:-) The Efreet in now listed in my shopping list, really looks like a great kit. Will definitely get it! Thanks again guys.
JumpNShootMan
Ein Ein Ein
Also, I really liked the Gouf R35, so I might get the Gouf Revive. The two different shades of blue is more noticeable on the Revive.
Arnval
guntank origin vs guntank tv
Gastonaso15
I love the design of the Guntank origin ver. and the Grimgerde looks really nice
Franky
That Denial Gundam is pretty sexy! (Still wishing for an MG Build Burning though…)
Dave
…still waiting on that RG Gouf
…Pumped for ‘The Shiz’
…Origin Guntank plz!
..Another fine episode as always!
BLEE01
Hi guys,
Great show thanks. Personally, I like the Gouf R35. Way much cooler than the revive and has 2 shields. Just for you Syd, I made a Canadian version of the Gouf R35 posted on the site. Just don’t know if you’ll be able to see it or not.
If I win, may I ask for the RX-78-2 Revive poster behind your seat instead? I really wish to have the RX-78-2 poster.
Thanks.
Bob
esc1a
nice !!!
Masterful Paladin
Man, that Grimgerde is easily one of my new favorite mobile suits. and you keep asking for a MG Char’s Zaku 2 3.0, I’m still waiting for a MG Justice! C’mon Bandai! We have two MG Freedoms now! Please!!?
Also, hope I win either of those kits, they look awesome! Love you guys, keep up the great work <3
Char
THAT guntank!!
MrMecha
*Efreet Intensifies*
dwanetheBROCK
Great episode guys! I would love to win any of those kits, especially the MG!
SinoX
Classic Guntank!
Hope to see more MG FA photos soon.
Wonder what’s next for mg. I really hope they will finish the assault mode for v2 ver.ka
Without the armour is just not feels complete 🙁 they have it for hg, why can’t mg?
Jcampos
Syd, Tod it’s all good of you just give method grmgerede! I don’t need anything else. Mmmm the stiffness
JAY3
Any news regarding the next rg? I’m hoping it’s unicorn and then banshee
la k
cool
keffiyeh247
Dear HLJ,
Great review as always. What kind of expectations do you have for the upcoming RE/100 Kshatriya in terms of articulation and gimmicks? An awesome review would be to compare it with the HGUC version!

00qanta
hi guys is me writing to you hlj , i queries about how the lack of race diversity in your company
when i look through you 200 episode and other episode,my question is do there have orther race that work in your company .we should show how diversity that people that play gunpla not just european or white people
that is my concern
Anna
Hi, and thanks for the comment! As we are located in Japan, the majority of our staff is Japanese. Gunpla TV, however, is an English-language program, and so is produced by our English speaking staff.
00qanta
thank you anna that slove my uncertainty

Nice
Kamatori
Digging all the zeek love from bandai lately

Will we ever get an RG GM?

Great episode! The Grimgerde looks so cool, and so knight-like with the head-fins, keep up the great work guys 🙂
TadashiSER
Lets go MG FA gundam and psycho zaku !!!
Darth Mingus
Cann’t wait to get a grimgerde, it looks awesome. I am a. It concerned with the thunderbolt full armor gundam, though. The preview shots do not have the joint coverings on the elbows and knees. I thought that was what makes this version different from the regular full armor. Hopefully they will appear on the model when it is revealed at the hobby show later this month.
FrankNStein42
That Efreet is looking better and better everytime I look at it. Here’s hoping they keep churning out these awesome RE/100’s!
Leeminator
I watched it and I still don’t know if I want Grimgerde or Efreet!
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
talongman
Denial is not just a river in egypt.
cjb19
nice
Wölf
The Efreet Is looking real nice, I hope to see more REs from Bandai. Bandai if you are reading Please and Thank you.
Zeroconvoy
So, can you convert the R35 into a normal Gouf?
clpurpose
Thank you for making all the videos!
Amerarat
Congratulations to Ryan! I might need to get me those two Goufs now.
reconguista12
Looking forward to the Master Grade Full Armor Gundam from Gundam Thunderbolt
Bara
just watched the Guntank in action in the origins movie.
Young Casval (Char) sure got some balls. like, you will never be as badass as Casval owning 4 Guntanks while holding his sister on his lap.
Tell me how to get high on gundam guys, just like Todd.. Do I have to work in the same kind of place like HLJ to get as high as Todd ?
JK 😀
Hope I win some kit :p
Tokster
Hoping they make an RE Kshaytriya :/
Andyneo
Great episode guys! Very excited about the MG Thunderbolt rx-78 full armor. I hope too win the hg denial gundam,I have been wanting that one for a while.
Zaku 90's
i hope to see the RE Kshaytriya!!!
Beork
Love the efreet, hope they’ll do some more kits like Kshaytriya, or some of the weirder Zeta designs
Lokiman
Nice episode guys but somehow sad without Ryan (congratz on twins!). I hope he will be back soon and I’m looking forward to see new stuff shown at Shizuoka Hobby Show! 😀
OwlPatronus
The Grimgerde is very nice! The Efreet doesn’t appeal to me that much.
To have a Guntank, yes please!
To have a second Denial Gundam? Sure!
Great episode to look forward to… A double dose of Freedom!
I hope to win the giveaway.
scid
I wonder what would be at shizuoka..hopefully more Zeon MG.
NekoNyaa
GIVE ME GUNPLA…. hi everyone at HLJ you’re all awesome!!!
Kelvin Lee
Hey Guys,
Loved the episode even if there wasn’t any new kits to unbox. I can’t wait to see the newest kits planned for this year. Any insider tips on what the biggest releases will be?
Keep on building and rock’in!!!
Cheers
benBearz
Hey Ryan, Syd and Todd, thanks for all the great shows you’ve done so far, especially the grade explanation ones as they helped me pick out my first gunpla kits, the HG Barbatos and Gusion Rebake. Sadly they weren’t from HLG, but after a bit of research its clear that not only do you have a great reputation, but you guys are cheaper overall than anyone else I can find for the UK, so all my orders will be with you guys from now on.
Just got 2 questions for you guys and the community, for my next lot of kits I’d like to do a top coat and panel wash, I know Ryan really likes his enamel panel wash, but I was wondering if acrylic paint would work just as well if watered down enough, and if it does work which gives the better effect, enamel or acrylic?
And probably more for Syd and Todd, for my next lot of gunpla I’ve decided to go with a few kits from the 00 line, so I was thinking the Exia and the 00 Raiser in HG…But they do come in RG…the price is good and they look doable with my skills…and I really do like the look of the RG QuanT…is it worth jumping from HG to RG if you are confident in your skills to do it?
Also send my thanks to Brian from Boss Builds, he managed to answer the question I was struggling with on how to layer different types of paints/top coats on ep4 of boss builds, I had been struggling with that for days!
Mathew
So far there are three RG kits from 00. The GN-001 Gundam Exia was released in April 2014, the GN-0000 + GNR-010 OO Raiser followed in April 2015 and the GNT-0000 00 Qan[T] will be released this month.
benBearz
Oh I already knew about the RG kits (although I had hoped the Qan[t] would be release near the beginning of the month), my question was whether it would be worth making the jump from having only done 2 HG kits, to doing 3 RGs. I’ve actually already gone an ordered the Exia and 00 Raiser in RG and preordered QanT, but thanks for replying anyway.
XClops
Great episode as always, looking at the Grimgerde it seems like its too stocky? or just not thin and ‘sharp’ enough, either way cant wait for next time.
Dmoon
U guys are amazing keep it up
Teohjs
The Denial’s going to be awesome. Great job people!
Dee Chen
me?
bloodreaver666
Great Episode guys, at the moment I’m in the middle of building my first PG, the red frame astray. It will look awesome once finished. Would be great if they announce a zaku II char version 3.0, but maybe there might be more 2.0 kits as there are a lot of them that need an upgrade.
BNuts
Great, now I have to decide between the HG and 1/100 Grimgerde.
I’m also looking at the Gundam the Origin as my 1st MG, even though it’s slightly more expensive than the Freedom 2.0. I just love those accessories and gimmicks, and I don’t have a representation of the Gundam yet.
CivilC
No one’s gonna comment on the fact that Syd has a twin?????
eXia
Congratulations to Ryan! times two!
Really love the look of the Grimgerde though. Also hoping for a MG Freedom 2.0 review soon!
FooFoo
Great episode! The 1/100 Grimgerede looks very slick and probably they’re setting a higher standard for other ibo 1/100 kits starting with this
TheGundamFromSpace
I’ll be in denial if if I don’t get the guntank
