  14. I can’t wait until I get my Bawoo in the mail. Even though I am not really a huge fan of ZZ. However I have to say the RE/100 line is pretty great for me because I prefer the bigger scale. Plus the bigger pieces are much easier for painting. Looking at you Nightengale!

  15. Not too hyped about the Star Build Strike, but I am definitely waiting for the RG Gold Frame. >.<

    Reply
  16. hmm… wasn’t a fan of the original transient but i’m digging the transient glacier. maybe it’s the dark color theme and that awesome backpack. so sad about the Gundam Front Tokyo news on the other hand. i’m glad i was able to visit and experience it earlier this year during sakura season! hoping to come back again but don’t think will make it before the last day on March 5…

  19. I would totally go for that Frame Arms unit as I have not build that one yet :3

    Anyways great episode guys!

  20. Nice episode as always. Two things:

    1. Thoughts about the 1/1 Scale Gundam being taken down and the rumor that they want to make it movable by the 40th anniversary? I want a button I can press to jump 2 years in the future.

    2. What MG or PG kit could Bandai say they were going to release next week and you would just throw money at them to instantly get it? *cough*Kshatriya*cough*

    Also nice Winter Sale, managed to get 3 of the 08MS Team MGs.

  24. That bawoo is looking far better then I originally thought, hoping we get the green version but it may become a P bandai if you ask me.

    hey syd

    Just curious, how many kits have you built as of the filming of this episode? ?

    Reply
  32. Frame me like I’m Roger Rabbit!!!

    Reply
  33. Frame Arms!! sweet. It’ll be good to build something other than Gundam :p

    Reply
  34. Heyo! I don’t know a whole lot about what Final Fantasy is…so you’re not alone Todd.

    The HG Vidar has the same problem with the HG Barbatos and Gusion Rebake for me, too many stickers yet too many missing color apps, so i’m definitely going Full Mechanics for the Vidar. The Bugu is interesting, since all Origin kits are pretty much great, it’s definitely on my radar.

    The new HG Transient Gundam Glacier looks sick. The Transient already interested me, but it never had a huge flair to make me go for it. The Glacier on the other hand does it with it’s awesome looking clear purple parts and colorscheme, it looks sick and I want one.

    The RE/100 Bawoo is something i’m excited for, I love the Bawoo and the new RE/100 looks so good, plus transformations are my stuff! It’s got a really nice amount of panel detail like other RE/100’s, and the lack of an inner frame helps with the transformation it would pull off, so that’s very nice.

  36. Kotobukiya recently(-ish) released an updated version of the Frame Arms base frame (labeled “Renewal”). Supposedly it has improved articulation, and Kotobukiya are re-releasing a bunch of their older kits packaged with this frame. On HLJ, they’re listed as “:Re”. Might you be able to do a comparison video of the original and new frames?

    Thanks. Hope to get my hands on that Magatsuki-Houten!

  46. I didn’t remember that the Bawoo legs looked so funny when it splits in half. That’s gotta be some sight in the battlefield, seeing a pair of legs flying on their own like that.

  47. Haven’t heard of that frame arms
    Is it good?

    Reply
    • Here’s a video review: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cnJOtl1zHfI

      By the by, the version being given away was a limited-release version with some exclusive weapon/armor parts, namely a “vest” that evokes the wide flared shoulders of some ornate kimonos, a Tanegashima-esque gun, and a yumi-style bow. They were really going all in on the classical Japanese style cues. (None of these were ever released as MSG or expansion parts, I don’t think.)

      The same kit was released in non-LE form without those extra parts as the Magatsuki, and the armor design overall was reused for the Durga I and Durga II kits. And now all three standard releases are getting “:Re” re-issues, where the standard Frame Architect is replaced by the newer Renewal Frame.

      Hope that helps.

  50. My Bawoo is sitting in my Private Warehouse! I’m excited to ship it but, I have to add a few more kits first. Decisions, Decisions, sometimes I just can’t make up my mind. So many great new kits coming out or already here. The Vidar and Transient Gundam Glacier are Awesome! And the new MG’s…OMG!

    Reply
  51. Never had a Koto kit before but it looks pretty cool. Do you guys have any idea how the new Origin MG is different from the one that already came out? It looks exactly the same to me.

  64. its funy how I never won anything here 🙁

    Reply
  65. nice episode guys. i personally had high hopes for the bawoo but i was a bit disappointed but i guess that how the reborn one hundred line is. however, the transient glacier looks fine, but i can’t help noticing the section in the butt, it kind of looks missing something.

    i’m wasn’t a big fan of kotobukiya kits, but they are improving in term of design and mechanic of the newer kits, so i hope i win that Magatsuki Houten kit and give it a try.

  68. Vidar is Kimaris 3.0. Is anyone still confused about who the pilot is?

    Definitely getting the Transient Glacier. I’ll try to leave the backskirt off, since it doesn’t look like it does anything. Sick clear parts, though!

  74. Frame Arms is going to get alot bigger with the Frame Arms Girls getting animated and apparantly some of the Frame Arms artists/designers also work on mobile suits.
    The thing i dont like about frame arms is that they can be annoying/painfull to handle wth the pointy/sharp details.

    Reply
  75. Frame Arms!
    Those RG in your winter sale are calling out to me.

    Reply
  76. My expression to the intro was “right, FF15 came out and that is what my bro has been playing.” So far,the game looks great, but there is a lot of driving like Gran Turismo. What’s with that, eh? My highlight of this episode must be the Vidar Gundam. I can’t wait to get my order shipped and start building the MS. Hopefully the Flauros comes out soon, but with the pink color scheme it will definitely sick out in my collection!

    Reply
  77. When I saw the transformation of the Bawoo I got flashbacks of the MG Zeta 2.0, though thankfully it doesn’t seem like you need a PhD in Mechanical Engineering to transform the Bawoo. You should call the two halves the B-nut Butter and Jelly.

    Reply
  78. The Bawoo looks really good! I dont understand what is the deal with P bandai, like half of this stuff i wished for in the past comes to realization but in the form of p bandai, its stupid. From hg sword and blast impulse to the rebawoo

  91. Not sure how I feel about the HG but I’m excited for the Full Mechanics Vidar Release!
    Never built a Frame arms before. maybe I should give it a try.

  92. Those clear purple parts are sooo nice, I think i would use them to enhance another kit. also, i want that frame arms!

    Reply
  93. You definatly should show more of the Kotobukiya kits. Yes, it is called Gunpla TV, but in month with very few new gundamsuits, like past october, it would be a great opportunity to show more of the other stuff. Especially the Kotobukiya stuff wich is hy far more serious than the latest gundam-designs. I recently bought some kits from Plum, Hasegawa and Koto, cause the latest stuff from Bandai was not my style, when it comes to 1:100 scale. And my preorders are far from beeing shiped. Maybe i’ll give a short review or unboxing about them in the forum. PEOPLE USE THE FORUM..

  98. Another entertaining episode. That Bawoo looks cool, but RE100 just isn’t detailed enough for me. Come on Bandai, MG ReBawoo! (I know it’s never happening, but yeah…..)
    Also, in case anyone hasn’t seen it yet, P-Bandai is releasing the Phenex as a PG. The price is almost as audacious as the gold finish. I have a feeling that I’m going to end up ordering it, regardless. Dammit Bandai, every time I turn around, another hit to the wallet!

  100. Frame Arms!!!! please Mr random number generator, I take back every foul thing i have said about you in the past, pick me, pick me!!!
    Please do a section of non gundam stuff on the show, don´t get me wrong, I love gundams as much as the next guy (I dislike HG’s though, I find them simple and boring) but a section of some other series will put some much needed spice to the show…

  101. Bandai has come a long way in making Gundams… I can still remember back in 2004 when i was in highschool and my first buy was the HG 1/144 double X… it was the first gundam that made me love the Gundam kits. great job Bandai… really looking forward to your future kits 🙂

  125. Came home today to see my HLJ care package arrived!

    I just wonder if its me, or Tamiya acrylics is hard to use for hand painting? Maybe I need a little more patience, but I have better success with Tamiya enamels and I usually hand brush metallic paints (gold/silver) on the mechanical details of a kit.

    I would like to try other paint brands, but I can only find Tamiya paints in my local area.

    BTW, I think Gundam Vidar looks way cooler as depicted here (https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CyQV65zUoAE-gRe.jpg)

    • Thin them and pick up a few drops of retarder medium. Then you’ll have more work time like you do with enamel. Many thin coats give the best finish.

So I am interested about your opinion of third party addon sets both resin and plastic. What is that grey line between bootleg/third party etc.
