  4. Interesting camera angle when showing the runners. The vibration / camera shake was slightly distracting. Color / grading is a bit different.

    Really happy this is starting up again 🙂

  5. Hey there!

    The HG Blue Destiny Unit 01 is a happy surprise and i’m really happy we got it. It seems to be a really awesome kit and I love all the things it does better compared to the original kit, a definite must buy for me.

    I’ve built and will review the RG Unicorn for myself and I have to say, this is the best RG i’ve ever built. It’s just so fantastic in every category, I can only bring myself to love this kit every time I see it for all the amazing and groundbreaking things it does, truly a piece of work for an RG. Very sturdy, transformation is both easy and well engineered, joints are very friendly, and it’s just such a great kit from all standards, I cannot emphasise how far they aced this kit.

    The HG Tristan was just a disappointment for it’s age, I don’t think it was a very savory idea from Bandai to reuse the HG Alex’s joint in a kit from 2017, especially if it’s only the joints, it’s just wasted potential really.

    Chinagguy seems to be a new step in the Armored Girl kits for Gunpla, and it seems like the best so far. The eye stickers are well done, there are a lot of gimmicks, and it just seems to be the best we saw so far. I like how Bandai implemented elements from SHFiguarts into this kit, they really did improve here and that’s nice to see.

  7. I believe there is a pilot from Build Fighters Amazing Ready named Lindsey who pilots the Gundam Transient Glacier. Lindsay should maybe build that one?

  9. Thank you for answering my question in this episode
    Fun fact, Sya is my ex gf name
    Maybe I should change it

    Anyway
    Can’t wait for Lindsay to review a model kit, Megami Device would be pretty cool

    Also I wouldn’t mind getting that HG Origin Guncannon XD

  12. Todd did you watch the Gundam Build Fighters Battlogue episode with Char? What were your thoughts on it?

    On one of those slow weeks, you guys should both select an old kit (both the same) and have a sort of competition and let the viewers vote on the best one. One week it could be judging based on kit bashing, another week, it can be the best custom paint job…, etc.

  13. I’m dying to get the RG unicorn but I should wait for the full armour version first

  14. Its been a while since i build a RG kit..actually i only build once which is the RG Freedom gundam (2012 maybe) and i might gonna get that new RG Unicorn simply because Unicorn Gundam is my fav ms and that RG look promising to build!

    Anyway guys, i am happy that GunplaTV is back! Cheers! 😉

  19. It’s great to see the show continue, along with the giveaways. I’m curious to see just how solid that RG Unicorn really is, and which of the full armor and banshee variants they will release afterwards as normal releases.

  29. I’m still shocked byt the view of the first episode of Gundam Build Fighters Battlogue.

  31. Imagine the size difference between the RG and the Megasize Unicorns

  32. Great show! And thank you for reading my comment. Really love Todd’s idea of building all the HGUC kits. Can’t wait to see Lindsay’s kit review. Anyway, thanks to Anna, Ryan, Todd and Lindsay for the “behind the scenes” hard work to produce GunplaTV.

  33. I absolutely WANT the RG Gundam Unicorn. The second I saw a review, I clicked on it. And I must admit. It’s GOD-LIKE. Pretty smooth transformation, nice clear pink plastic, and rigid unicorn and destroy modes just add to the millions of reasons why I want this kit so bad!!

    Reply
  34. I already asked this once, but will the posters that are in the background ever be for sale? Not those exact posters but Gundam posters in general?

    Reply
    • The posters in our office are promotional materials and so we aren’t able to sell them. If Gundam posters are released as retail products in the future, we’ll be happy to offer them!

  40. Hi guys,
    I just finished watching the first 2 episodes of the new GunplaTV and was pleased to see it back again after a long break. And a big thank-you to Lindsay for stepping in to fill the big Syd shoes – hope she realizes what she has got herself into!

    Especially looking forward to the Rg Unicorn build and transformation, which makes me wonder if Ryan will try to build the new Mega-size Unicorn.

    Reply
  41. I’mma wait for the RG Full Armour Unicorn. I hope it’ll come with the Hyper Beam Javelin. I got one a couple of sales ago, but the Strike Freedom is using it.

    Speaking of ‘Hyper,’ I’m looking forward to the Hyper Gyanko, as well as the Winning Fumina.

    I’d like to see Lindsay build and review FA Girl and Megami Device. MD is apparently the successor line to Busou Shinki. Naturally, being Kotobukiya, MD is sideways-compatible with FA Girl and Koto’s MSG equipment. I’ll be confirming that between the SOL Hornet and Innocentia when I get the Hornet. I already have Inno built and painted.

  49. w00t! you guys are back!

    Reply
  50. We definitely need a co-host, the current combo seems to work fairly well I’d say! Even though this is only the second episode since the “reboot”.

    The main thing that made Syd and Ryan combo work so well (imo) was the talkshow/podcast like atmosphere, of course the key is also to talk about relevant stuff Gunpla fans are interested in! 🙂

    Keep em’ comin’!

  51. Will i win? I doubt it.

    Reply
  52. really tempted on the RG unicorn. didn’t get the master grade due to poseability issues and flimsiness, so i opted for the GFF Metal Composite versions. then the PG got on my radar but the RG seems to be an excellent option too now…

    Reply
  53. I am very interested in knowing if the Frame Arms weapons can be kit-bashed into Gunpla hands.

    Reply
  54. Glad to see you guys are back. Looking forward to the RG Unicorn episode!

  55. No you can’t join the contest Lindsay – haha

    Good to have the show back, definitely want to see different kinds of kits besides gundam.

    Reply
  56. good to see gunplaTV back, you guys should definitely keep doing non Gundam, zoids and such are just as good and don’t get enough coverage elsewhere

  61. I wish they made separate RG Unicorn [Unicorn mode] and [Destroy mode]. Maybe then the articulation would work out better.
