  4. The Gernsback IV always reminds me of the Graze units in the Gundam IBO series because of the head and legs armor design. They both look kinda plain, but the build is easy and fantastic 🙂

  6. Another awesome video! That FMP kit reminds me of Tallgeese from Gundam Wing, love the similarities! Can’t wait for the next model kit review!

  7. I think that Bandai has come a long way if they were able to make a model kit of poo. Just saying.

  8. The first ever plastic model poop on a stick? Bandai as always is a pioneer in the world of plamo.

  20. I challenge Todd to watching ‘Full Metal Panic.’

    I will watch a ‘Gundam’ series I have not seen yet. Maybe ‘Wing.’ I couldn’t understand it when it came to North America originally.

  26. In Canada ‘Z’ is pronounced ‘Zed’ (sometimes). And no, we don’t say ‘aboot’. That died out decades ago. Sadly ‘eh’ hasn’t.

  27. Full Metal Panic is getting a lot of kits!

    Reply

  29. Nice review guys. I hope next times you can list out the retail prices for us just in case. Maybe next time join in and make a show of 3, David?

    Reply
  30. I can’t wait to get some of those Haro kits. I bet there will be some creative kitbash ideas from other builds with these kits.

    Reply
  31. Those Haro have me really worried for the health of my wallet.

    Reply
  32. Oh, I did not realize that Piccolo had already been released :v

  33. I think M9 stands for mark 9? Which is a version of saying version 9.

  49. The new Haro kits are a blessing, you have no idea how much I’ve always wanted one, and now we’ve got plenty to choose from! Although I think I’ll end up eventually buying all of them, especially the pink one.

    The new Gundam Ground Type is neat, although I don’t see a huge point to it as the old one is already fantastic. Oh well, updates are always neat I guess, but I’d like a new GM or Gundam NT-1 even more.

    The Piccolo is really cool, the parts separation and the effect part is good looking, a nice collection to any DBZ fan.

    The new FMP kits are so nice looking, so much detail, poseability, and top notch engineering. Overall I’m very happy with them and can’t wait to get my hands on that Arbalest!

  56. Todd and David have great chemistry together hosting the Gunpla TV show!

  57. Face palm Gundam still exists?

    Would emptying my private warehouse of 12 items only to see a preorder arrive the next day qualify?

    Now my Haro sits alone on the shelf, left behind.

    Please reassure him that he will soon have company in the form of a BB-CSRX78-2 and the Akuyaku #1 (which you guys did such a good job of promoting)

    Until then, feel free to look in on the little fellow from time to time and keep his box dust free during his isolation.

  58. Nice surprise to have David on this gunpla TV! Also nice to see FMP getting so much love with all these kits! Would love to see the Aoshima FMP Laevatein make an appearance on gunpla TV when it releases 🙂
