    Hello,

    I want to ask if any of you have tried if the RG sword\launcher pack fit on the HGCE Strike. i know the back connectors are different, and have to mod either the strike kit or the packs, but i am more interested about the armor part : eg sword shoulder armor, and launcher shoulder armor – do the fit the HGCE Strike or don’t they?

    thank you

    The G-Self Display Base fully in color. It was a bit tricky to paint because it’s mostly molded in big size pieces. Some of the colors turned out to be a bit darker than I wanted. Nevertheless it looks pretty nice.

    • Totes in. Great episode as always guys.

    • Hope I win that HGUC 1/144 Schuzrum-Galluss.
      More awesome gunpla coming out in February 2015

    • a wise person ounce said ” that’s what she said”
      Great episode as always

    • the leds are eye drooling ~

    • Great episode guys and gals

    • I WILL WIN ONE OF THOSE KITS WITH THE HELP OF KYOJI!

    • Nice Episode Guys, look forward to the next one.

    • Hi guys great episode just wondering what are your thoughts on the seed/destiny franchise? Even though the anime isnt really well liked the series(in my opinion) has some of the most interesting looking gundams, destiny gundam being my favorite.

    • So I have to ask now after watching, what DO you drive? XD

    • I’m loving it 🙂

    • Great Episode as always guys!! Can’t wait for the next Ep!!!

    • That PG unicorn is looking awesome! It still looks cool even without the LEDs powered on.

    • man i want that 100

    • Great episode once again guys!
      Gunpla scene is still kinda bland since it’s just the start of the year but I am feeling that this will be a year of UC (Universal Century) kits with the release of the first Gundam: The Origin movie. Already ‘blessed’ by the MK-III, we might see some MG ver 3.0s aside from the already announced HG Char’s Zaku (Origin Version) and the Guntank Early type.
      Looking forward to your next episode!

    • What you all think about RG 00 Raiser ?

    • Great job on that PG Unicorn, and I want that Jegan so bad!

    • I think the next MG will be the g-self. Great episode fellers.

    • why you all talk about AKB48
      which girls you like ?

    • All good kits this week on the giveaway, I already own one of them but haven’t built it yet. Not gonna say which one because the sinister random number machine would probably give me that one. Good show guys and loved the ladies Mega-Shiki Info.

    • Great show guys as always my thirst for gunpla has once again been replenshid. 🙂

    • the PG Unicorn looks great with the LEDs keep it up guys! =D

    • Great episode as always!

      On a side note, I believe the Schuzrum Gallus is supposed to be the Strum Gallus – Engrish got the best of the kit (like the upcoming Hi-Nu Vrabe which should be Brave).

      • Strum? Or Sturm?

      • Well, it’s not engrish, as Schurzum isn’t english. Schur in German means shear, and Schurz in german means Apron. Zeon’s mobile suits all carry Direct German names, or names Derived from modified German words. Although apron would make no sense in it’s name, I guess shear[ing] could, idk.

      • And why would you go that far as to guess that Vrabe should be Brave but due to an “engrish” error got twisted? With that logic every other word that doesn’t make sense in english is a wrongly written or wrongly spelled english word. There are languages out there other than english.

        • In the case of Brave/Vrabe, I believe the Japanese use the same katakana for ‘v’ and ‘b’ sounds. You could just as easily anglicize that as Brabe/Vrave.

          (This coming from my very limited understanding of Japanese script. If I’m wrong, please correct me.)

    • Not enamored with the new Shiki, but that’s par for the course with these Build Fighters kits. A lot of hit and miss. (By the by, the undergating is a result of the original base kit – the HGUC Hyaku Shiki – being gold-plated.)

      Does anyone know any specific episodes where they discuss Hasegawa (Macross) kits? I’m going through my old collection and found a VF-1S I started waaay back in middle school and am currently in the process of cleaning it to start as fresh as possible. Lots of super glue to scrape and sand away. Yuck.

      Anyway. To repeat a question I asked before: Any possibility of including those posters in giveaways and/or selling them on the store? Good luck with the drawing, everybody.

    • Loved the episode. Really wanna win! Hey when will there be more unicorns in stock??? And please let us know what the new MGs of the year will be!!!

    • Apparently complaining wins us gunpla? Wah wah, this show is awful.

      😉

    • i like turn A, syd, u know syd mead designed turn A gundam MS, so syd have to like it. 🙂 the niggata one is call the NG48, i like perfume, ak48 is a bit much.

    • Syd what do you think would be a good idea for the next MG to come out?

    • Great video as always! It would be cool if you guys build exia dark matter mg. what’s the next rg kit?

    • I like turn A gundam’s POWER MUSTACHE, but not the overall design so much. I’m hyped for the February restock of your HGUC-Acguy (Acguy 2016). Almost ordered a Gundam Mk-III today but another kit caught my eye.

      Another great episode guys!

    • I really like the Reconquista in G designs.. hope that the G-Self will get a MG soon…
      I wanna free stuff btw 😛

    • Dammit, Syd! you’re really making me want to get a unicorn pg!

    • Really good review. Keep it up guys!!

    • I just started this hobby like 2 months ago, you guys really help us newbies. Thank you so much.

    • Awesome episode as always guys, never cease to disappoint. One quick question, I have recently started fully customizing my kits, Using all given decals, painting, and flat coating. I wanted to know, what is the best way to go about flat coating clear parts? Specifically 00 Kits, like the HG 00 Qan [t] and the MG GNX-III. It’s pretty hard to mask every joint sometimes, and 00 kits in particular have a ridiculous amount of clear parts.

      • I’m not sure what issue you’re having… Flat coats are clear, so there shouldn’t be any issue spraying them over clear parts. If you’re trying to avoid spraying the clear parts at all, then simply pop them off, spray the rest of the model, then re-apply them.

        Perhaps you could explain your problem in greater detail?

        • The main issue i’m having is hazing. I have a MG GNX-III that i built 2-3 years ago that was in shambles, completely destroyed for whatever reason. I decided to use it as a sort of spray paint punching bag to test things out. i used Tamiya TS-80 Flat coat and sprayed it all over. Looks incredible on every surface, except on the camera on the crest of the head and GN drive cover in the chest, they both completely fogged over.

          • Ah. Well, I’d defer to Syd and/or other more experienced hobbyists on this, but if it were me, I would just not spray the clear parts. Remove them from the kit, flat coat the kit, and then re-apply them afterwards. They should be fairly easy to install/remove on those 00 kits. Alternatively, you can sand and polish the fogged-up part using sandpaper in increasing grits (400 to 600 to 1000 to etc.) and polishing compound.

            I must admit I don’t remember ever having this problem myself, but then I just recently got back into the hobby, so my memory isn’t particularly fresh.

            Good luck. Working with clear plastic is never fun.

          • I have just one word for you. Masking. You won’t be able to flat top coat clear parts without them fogging up. It all depends on the amount of the coat itself of course. I tend to airbrush Mr.Hobby aqueous flat and to tell you the truth, all I need to do is a few light trigger presses here and there. You go heavy on that thing and the only thing you get are problems. So a light coat is all you need. I’d imagine Tamiya spray can flat works more or less the same. If you think clear parts are a nightmare to flat coat, you should try flat coating black. The effect is similar to bleaching (if you go nuts with it) and the end result is more of a dark grayish color than black. As for the Future, it’s great for glosses but tends to yellow the whites after a few coats. I’ve used it for years. It’s a cheap replacement for the gloss coats and can be applied with a regular brush.

      • Edit;

        Could this be solved with a gloss or pearl coat? or would the end result still be the same fogging?

        • Gloss finishes might help. Looking around the web, I see a lot of mentions of Future floor polish being used as well. You might be interested in that. You’d have to make sure to either spray them apart from the rest of the kit or do a lot of masking, though. Unless you want the entire thing glossed up.

          I didn’t consider it at first, but weather may have something to do with it. If you spray in a particularly hot/cold/humid environment, you can get fogging issues. I doubt that’s the case in your situation, but there you are.

        • Well what do you know. Apparently you shouldn’t flat-coat clear pieces ever.

          From

          Tips & Tricks: Spraying Flat Top Coat on Unpainted Models

          “Flat top coat will fog up any clear parts. Make sure to remove or mask any exposed clear components like mooneye visors or the green orbs on the MG Gundam Exia, for example.”

      • *that first comment was meant to say “Never cease to entertain” i had two conversations happening at the same time and got confused.

    • *loud typing intensifies*
      the PG Unicorn will be my new night light

    • The Thunderbolt series looks like an interesting take on gundam and possibly the gunpla as well.

    • Don’t worry about getting replaced by your more hotter, cuter counterparts. We watch you guys for your geeky character.

    • Keep up the good work guys, can’t wait to get the RE 100 MK 3.

    • I’m rather disappointed in bandai over the RE/100 release of the mk3 and the upcoming GP-04. Both of these are kits that could easily be made into MG kits, as they’re not very large. RE/100 is ok if they’re releasing more kits along the size of the nightengale, but to release two MS that aren’t even in the size league of kits like the Perfect Zeong, Ex-S, The O, Sazabi, etc is not cool in my book. MG Mk3 and Gp-04 should have been done along time ago.

      • I agree. Slightly taller kits don’t qualify for the re-100 and they shouldn’t. The Nightingale was ok. An MG of the thing would cost somewhere around 15000 yen but these three, MKIII, GP04 and the Dijeh should and could be done as an MG kits with more big kits such as some mobile armors from the series, for example, keeping the exclusive right for the re-100. I don’t mind all that much but they got a bit lazy and more greedy opting out the cheaper and easier solution for what could have been done the way that people would enjoy more.

        • Dealing with the size constraint was never the sole factor in starting this line. The Nightingale, Mk. III, GP04 – none of these kits are wildly popular. They’ve got their fans, but (owing largely to the fact that they were never animated) not so much that they could make up production costs of an MG kit. This line isn’t just for large designs; it’s for designs that are “second-tier” popularity-wise.

          That said, I would really dig a RE/100 Dendrobium. Because Dendrobium.

    • Great work Cid, Ryan, Anna, & Lindsey, Hope the Paint work on the Unicorn goes well. Keep up the good work can’t wait to see whats next.

    • All amazing kits *DROOLS* :O

    • that megashiki is one sexy mobile suit

    • Still my dream kit, Unicorn is

    • Another Great Episode (:
      Thinking of picking up that mega shiki ! It looks really nice with the separate mega launcher.

    • 165?? amazing show.. feeling bad that i’ve only known about you guys now. Pretty new to the hobby and i’ve just built 2 HG kits. Waiting to built a Master Grade. Which would recommend Syd? I would want something that would be interesting and complex

    • The Unicorn is so Christmasy! Bling-Bling!

    • Great episode as always! The Megashiki is looking good 😀

    • Still new to Gunpla, wont say no to a new one to add to my near empty shelf!

    • Glasses girls for the win!!! #teamanna

    • My inner Asian called out to me when I heard there was giveaways.

      Also I always enjoy the last bit where you guys address the community; always a ton of laughs when you guys take verbal swings at each other!

    • Bandai give us a RE/100 Dark Gundam

    • Excited about the next 2 MGs coming out 😀

    • i’m liking the look of the mk.III could do with a lick of paint! but nice looking non the less

    • Pg unicorn looks nice with the LEDs and all, but i think the LEDs are a waste of money, you can most likely buy tools and materials to makes the LEDs yourself with enough research and dedication and all

    • can’t wait for more of that PG Unicorn!

    • I hope I win this time!!! Third time’s the charm!!!

    • Decaaaal DECAAAAL

    • MK III is a must have for me! The RE100 line is amazing.

    • still waiting for MG Kshatriya!

    • The mega shiki looks so awesome!

    • The next 2 MGs coming out i want so bad

    • Yay for the newest semi-regular co-hosts!

    • What do you guys think of the Gundam Tryon 3, and Super Robots mixed in with your gundam?

    • Please RNG!!!!!! Choose me!

    • That zaku is on steroids. great episode and keep the bromance lol

    • Great episode syd and ryan. Syd do you think Bandai is getting on the undergate train? and I have to say I love me them Jegans. and I’m still begging for a MG release a RE release would be very disappointing.

      • The undergating on the Shiki is just a holdover from the HGUC Hyaku Shiki, which was gold-plated and thus featured undergating to mitigate visible nub marks marring the gold finish.

    • yet again very nice kits

    • wow cannot wait for the next episode!!!!

    • lol!!! that mega shiki and mega ride launcher combination sequence cracked me up. good one guys! awaiting more MG release announcements and looking forward to more episodes.

    • SIEG ZEON

    • Time to win one of this 3 badass kits 😀

    • Awsome video hope to have more of this kind of videos

    • good work guys! I hope for the Jegan

    • Hi Guys, I’m a french Ninja and I need to have a fast mobile suit, so I hope you will give me the High Mobility Zaku for my next mission. Thank you for all this videos. Bye.

    • This is probably the most energized I’ve seen Ryan on Gunpla-TV in a long while and Syd was unusually cheeky to boot. You two have coffee or something prior to filming?

      Either way its great to see you energized Ryan, I look forward to further updates about japenese idols next week!

    • You guys can always pass me the kits if you need to make more space 😉

    • Dear ladies and gentlemen,

      Sorry, have to get this of my liver, already 110 comments and only 4 likes…?! All comments just to win Gunpla? A shame…… 🙁

      Anyways, I (at least in my opinion) have a cool car, am a mechanic, look good enough (as to some women that’s an understatement, can’t see it myself), do some wicked martial arts and build Gunpla and other plastic models. So what does that make me, still a nerd…? LOL

      Oh, and even play video games…. Damn, I’m a nerd!!!!
      Ah well, as long as you have fun doing what you’re doing and don’t collect action figures and keep them sealed up in their boxes (get it? 40 year old virgin…)

      And got to love your cat, when she’s trying to help build your kit. Leaps on the table when it is full with parts that just have been cleaned or painted… If only there was a plastic model of a mouse that I could get her so she can build it.
      I’ll sneak up on her and jump right into the box with parts. Hahahahaha.

      Great episode as always, please keep them coming for as long as you can!

    • I need me some grunt suits… grunt suits 持ってきてください!!

    • I take offense to being called the gunpla emo! Well not really, everyone has their own preferences towards ms designs, mine are just a little more odd ball :P.

    • Talking about idol groups and girl groups: What are your views on Perfume? Of course, Hope I win!!!!

    • Great episode, guys! Keep up the good’npla work!

      Anyway, hope I win something, anything.

    • The Mega shiki looks damn good ! No need for the silly rider on his back, it ruins it.

      Great selection of kits again Ryan, I hope I get lucky one day 🙂

    • Oh gawd, that unicorn made me want to buy an LED kit for mine .-. Still building it and I can’t get over how big it is!

      There’s too many things putting my wallet in a coma though, first the unicorn and other kits I got after Christmas, and now Bionicle is coming back… Please have mercy on a mere student!

    • Oh man I would love me a free psycho zaku

    • The Schuzrum-Galluss is so cool on the anime, gives the impression of being piloted by a way more skilled person than the main characters haha.

    • You cannot have too much Zaku’s!

    • Just built the mega shiki myself… its awesome 😉

    • Is it worth it to get the Mega Shiki and just paint it gold?

    • mega shiki looks nice

    • That Gundam Wing Zero Ew poster is looking cool !

    • Will it be this time??

    • Wow! The comments build up Fast!

      I’m still on the fence about the PG Unicorn.. Shipping. Lighting kit availability, and loan approval ;)’

      Got the Re/100 Mk. III and really like it. I have a bunch of MG’s but sometimes the inner frames seem wasteful if you build with armor on, and paint. Removing pieces scrapes the paint (for me)

      Also I really want to know what your cohosts did last weekend. Sounds like it might be at LEAST as interesting as Gunpla

    • Pick me! lol

    • To be precise, it’s a HG. Long time ago when HG kits started coming out they were all 1/100 scale. In time they disappeared leaving room for smaller 1/144 HG kits as they were cheaper and more desired than the big ones. But now that 1/100, with MG kits, became so popular again they decided to re-release the old 1/100 HG line and call it the RE-100 or Revive-100. It should have been an exclusive for big and expensive kits that would cost 10000+ yen as an MG in that scale, such as the Nightingale kit would be too expensive to produce and sell. But they took the wrong turn somewhere and decided that they should do some of the regular 1/100 designs that could easily be done in an MG form, for a lot less money that would again cost less for the buyer. An MG looks much better with a lot less effort than the new MKIII. I think I’ll start calling them “pro kits” simply because they would require a full paint and detail job to make them look at least as good as an MG does without the paint.

      • Woodfish hatin’ cuz he ain’t got the skillz. 😛

        To be more precise, the Reborn 100 series are a “revival” of sorts of the old 1/100 kits that stopped being made after Seed/Seed Destiny. They were around for most of the 90s Gundams – V, Wing, X, etc. – and were typically of higher quality than the smaller 1/144 HG kits of the same series. The problem was that they were becoming almost too good. The difference in tech between Bandai’s MG kits and their 1/100 kits was shrinking. Essentially, they were competing with themselves.

        So they axed the 1/100 “No-Grade” kits, and for… wow, a decade now… they stuck to a simpler formula:

        1.) 1/144 HG kits during a show’s run.
        2.) 1/100 MG kits of the popular suits at key moments, with the first release (always?) being the lead suit.

        Fast-forward to 2014, and I suppose some board executive and gunpla enthusiast managed to convince the rest of Bandai to invest in the RE100 line, which would seek to focus on two key points:

        – larger designs in 1/100 scale at a reasonable production cost and selling price
        – making kits of some of the more obscure but popular designs in Gundam history

        The Nightingale, the first RE100 release, was always fairly popular with Gundam fans, but its size made a decently-priced MG impossible. RE100 fixed that.

        The Mk. III and GP04 are likewise fairly popular, but not so much that Bandai would be able to recoup the losses needed to make MGs of them. RE100 fixed that.

        …and so on and so forth, hopefully.

    • 4 TEH WIN!!1

    • great review guys,
      MKIII & Mega Shiki look awesome. looking forward for next MG kits.

    • The RE/100 Mk III looks awesome but the PG unicorn took the spotlight! Looking forward to see him with his armor on!

    • Great episode! Looking forward to the Master grade announcements for mid year, hoping to see some love for Zeta gundam and Build Fighters Try…. need me some MG Build burning

    • I’m always considering making a HG sometime…But all I’ve got till now are PGs, MGs and SDs….Maybe I can win one this time and start my HG journey:P

    • I wonder if they’ll giveaway the PG unicorn one day 😀

    • Gotta love the Thunderbolt kits. Another great episode guys, keep it up!

    • RE100 looking good. my next gunpla to build

    • If I would to get the PG Unicorn and would not like to spend extra for the LED pack, would it be possible to “engineer” your own circuit with your own LED lights???

    • Hey syd and Ryan,

      I’m new to gunpla but I’ve already built the sd sengoku astray and the build strike full package HG and the next one that I’m current looking to buy is the sinanju HGUC and also I was wondering if your ever going to do a review on shin musha mg, endless waltz heavyarms HG, and RX-121-1 Gundam TR-1 Hazel Custom HGUC?

    • The mk.lll is to blue for me

    • thx

    • Where. Do you commenttk to win the gun dam here or in YouTube ideally wanna win the ZAku so awesome

    • Are the RG Strike Rouge or Strike Deactivate mode realtively easy to find in hobby shops around Japan?

    • I just don’t get why i never get picked. (—,—) #sosad

    • Autotype is messing me upp

    • WOW~ a jegan thats great~ a galluss thats awesome ~ a psycho zaku 2 that are speechless and eyes blinking!

    • is that my time to win the price yet??

    • CHAR! YOU DECEIVED ME, CHAR!

    • I want to win GUNPLA ROCKS TEAM RED FRAME ASTRAY YEAH!!!

    • I tend to rewatch older episode of you guys as i build gundams. And let me tell you, you guys are like a part of me, i wish you guys get more “screen time”. Really enjoy your shows, cause there are no other gundam youtubers as awesome as you guys, now that robert is gone…

    • Sweet video guys and girls ,I’m waiting on my re/100 MK III to come in the mail now

    • Thanks for the video! I suppose those under gates on the Mega-Shiki are probably a carry over from the Delta Gundam

    • Why the giveaway merchandise always already been built? I hope someday Hobbylink TV give a new un-built kit as giveaway….and a PG (finger-cross) 😉

    • Love how that Psycho Zaku’s back pack is longer than the actual Zaku itself. =P

    • Then should 1 be connecting them in series or parallel circuit, which would be better??? And what type of battery n volt amount??? Hope to gain more inform about these from you

      • That’s going to require a lot of trial and error on your part, unfortunately.

        Take a look at LEDs first. Find out their max voltage (shouldn’t be much) and go from there. (Note: Some hobbyists underpower their LEDs because LEDs can give off too much light at times. A head’s-up.)

    • I want to believe.

    • I like the design of the Mega Shiki, but I just find the name kinda ridiculous.

      the 2 girls still kinda reminds me of Syd on the first episodes of Gunpla TV. you can still sense the tension while putting a smiling face

    • Oh wow the lights off and sound effects like watching a horror film haha. I like this ep. as always. Good Job!
      Hi Lindsey.

    • Cant wait for the gp04…

    • I wish they made RE/100 kshatriya too.

    • Really hoping the next MG would be the gundam x maoh or the crossbone gundam maoh, fingers crossed xD

    • Loving the in-depth look at the PG Unicorn and lighting.

    • Oh man, I had no idea Turn-X, Grimoire and Zgok lovers were in the minority. I love those guys! Rounded robots are great. There’s something so space age about them.

      Anyways, I have a question! I’ve been having trouble with nub marks. It seems no matter what I do I get stress marks, even when shaving down the nubs milimeter by milimeter with a new blade on an x-cto knife. Do you have any tips for getting rid of these?

      Also, I might be in the minority, but I’d prefer more episodes of Gundam TV where ypu guys talk about stuff (like this one) over building episodes. I feel like episodes where you build stuff are like spoilers, since seeing how these kits come together is like 80% of the fun.

      • 1.) The only surefire way to get them visibly gone is sanding smooth then (optionally and optimally) painting over it.

        2.) You can sometimes use your fingernail or blade tip to “scrape” at the white marks and reduce their appearance.

        3.) Sanding down with some fine-grit sandpaper (400-600 grit) will usually get you pretty good results.

        4.) Thin model cement (the kind you can brush on) sometimes helps, too. Brush a small amount onto the nub mark. Let it cure. Scrape/sand away.

        And a last resort:

        5.) If and only if you have deft fingers and aren’t afraid of slashing your thumb open every now and again (I have the calluses to show for it), you can get some extremely fine cutting done by choking up on the knife (with your index finger on or almost on the back of the blade). Hold the plastic piece in your other hand and bring it up to the blade, then “pinch” lightly on the plastic with your knife-hand thumb to get better control. Use your entire hand to “slice” the blade toward your thumb. You can also rock either the plastic against the blade with your other hand or rock the blade against the plastic with your knife hand. The point is to “slice” with a length of blade rather than “chop” by just pressing down with one part of the blade.

        Hope that helps some.

    • ok have have at wonderfest, I like the information I get on builds form u guys, I was wondering 2 things will the crew everycome to Comic-Con or Anime-Expo in the USA and will u do a custom build for the show?

    • That mk. 3 is really growing on me. Guess I’ll have to get one along with the mega shiki

    • Guys how much Gundams do you build on average every month. I hit an all time high last month with 5 new gundams I built and I have more on the way, think I need to go to gunpla rehab.

    • Me Want Zaku Thunderbolt

    • Syd, breaking all the gunpla rules, like a boss.

    • That MKIII looks great. Might be a nice future project, especially with a few custom decals.

    • Wow! The PG Unicorn with LED can sure be a lamp in my room 😀

      Very nice episode. This makes me want to buy both the Mega-Shiki and the PG Unicorn.

    • Have no HG grunt suits yet. Gimme those! 😀

    • I want to win the High Mobility Zaku please!!!!

    • Great episode! I want to make a suggestion, I think you guys should do episodes where you take old and/or ugly kits and make them look really good.

    • I don’t know whether to complain or give praise. How did you get those posters in the background?

    • Great show guys!
      Don’t stop the fun.

    • what cars do you drive ? XD

    • Hey guys!

      I couldn’t help but notice those posters in the background. Where can I get those? That Drei Zwerg poster is INCREDIBLE. I want one on my wall.

    • Great show as always
      hay any idea when you mite have another gunpla build contest?

    • Great build though when will my luck shine on me. Also why are most of the products backorders or out of stock? Reply please

      • Bandai’s kits are just so popular it’s hard to keep them stocked — but they’re going to have a major restock of a LOT of kits, soon!

    • wow.. awesome giveaways… hope to win this time… syd when will you give the PG Unicorn?.. 😀 peace

    • Them LEDs in the PG Unicorn is awesome, will we be seeing a PG Banshee? haha

    • It’s always a pleasure watching gunpla TV. Keep up the good work.

    • Great show like always! Totally LOVIN the mark 3! I hope I win the thunderbolt. Love the new girls. Can’t wait for next show. Later all 🙂

    • I don’t mind HG prizes, They will help fill my display case! I really like the LED kit its well done and they definitely spent time on it.

    • Good episode guys keep up the good work

    • Thunder! Thunder! Thunder! Thunderbolt!

    • The MK-III actually looks pretty good. hopefully Re/100 can keep the trend going with the GP04.

    • Would love some free gunpla! Hard to find here in B.C! Great episode guys

    • sw33t time to comment and not win lol

    • nice zaku

    • It’s always a pleasure watching gunpla TV. 😀

    • That PG Unicorn just looks better and better the more I see it on Gunpla TV!

    • The more I look at it, the more I like the Mega Shiki.

    • Great episode as always guys! Keep it coming!

    • I am a nerd. Please give me gunpla.

    • Fun episode as always, really enjoying the new bit with your fellow employees!

      Any Idea when Bandai might start reprinting the GPB-06F Super Custom Zaku F2000? Its one of my favorite HG kits and its getting hard to find.

    • Awesome as always!

    • Hey guys, another good show. How do you keep doing it?! its crazy. Anyway, Syd, and ryan, i was wondering what your thoughts are on HG kits in general. You guys always sing the praise of all the other its, but with HG, you are like ” meh, its a HG”. The quality of HG kits today is a big leap from some of the older ones.

    • Every time I see the PG Unicorn it makes me want to buy it with the LEDs even more, but I’m gonna hold out on the hope that Bandai might have a PG Sinanju in the works, all of the kits look awesome guys, keep it up Gunpla TV 😀

    • D= Love those crazy thunderbolt models.

      Was looking at kits coming out soon, and it really looks like I need to catch up on build fighters try.

    • Man you guys are giving away some sweet goodies! good luck everyone

    • its my Birthday.zaku please

    • Its Great to see the PG Unicorn again, every time I try to watch the 8 part build, I fall asleep half way through and forget what happened before I fall asleep. Still an aswesome show

    • i never have luck with these raffle things. i’ve never won one in my whole entire life

    • I WANT the Zaku TB O_O WANT WANT WANT

    • You need help huh? I wouldn’t mind giving Japan a visit. Zaku Zaku!

    • magic word for winning : shazam~!

    • The mega shiki looks cool.

    • dudesssssss!! talk about UC overload 😀 😀 those HG’s are so fudgetastical I hope I win them XD you guys ROCK

    • Love the Schuzrum Gallus!

    • Very nice showing of the L.E.D.s on the PG Unicorn! Really gives me the urge to get one…

    • i love the new hg gundam wing zero honoo sword kit

    • i on RAGE mode , Syd and Ryan what you think the SD Star wining gundam? can it transformers into a nomarl size 1/144 gunpla or that will be other gunpla ?

    • Awesome Awesome Awesome Awesome

    • Awesome ep guys!! Wish I could win that thunderbolt zaku or Jegan!

    • That thunderbolt kit…

      I love all of the thunderbolt kits. I just wish they would be realized in anime form. Can’t bring myself to start reading the manga.

    • The Mk3 gundam should be in MG line, not RE. I think Bandai are loosing their way on making model kits. By the way, great episode guys hope one day Syd will give away a PG Unicorn! That would be fun, really really fun 🙂

    • liek dis if yu cri evrityme

    • I call dibs on the high mobility zaku thunderbolt kit…

    • LOL She partied hard…

    • the mega shiki is great except for dem-high heels if you know what I mean… 🙂

    • It’s kind of… blue-purple. Violet, maybe?

    • OH, i remember the episode when you built that thunderbolt Zaku!

    • Who dies not love the Z’Gok??

    • What gundam type (HG,MG,else) do you guys prefer?

    • Great to see the girls back. Always nice to see different perspectives to Gunpla building.
      Keep up the great work. This show is the best.

    • Ya know the Mega Shiki looks much better with the white Mega Ride Launcher.

    • KIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIITTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ!

    • Crossfingers to win this time!

    • I’m going to learn from the last winner:

      How come I never win anything!!! 🙁

    • Great episode as always as even greater prizes to boot!

    • Hope I win

    • Great episode! Now pick me!!!!

    • From this day forward, I will call the S-Galluss the Shazam Gallus. Great episode.

    • so does that mean by complaining I have a higher chance of winning?

    • Am I the only one who thinks the Mega Ride Launcher looks like a chicken? Or a duck? Dinosaur? Animal with a beak? No? Ok…

    • Hi
      Looking forward to more MG kits from Gundam Build Fighters.
      Hope SFX parts comes with it.

    • apparently jegans in build fighters can kill almost anything all hail the mighty jegan

    • Would love some free HGUC plastic!
      If I win, give my channel a shout out! youtube.com/zakuaurelius

    • hmm. Mega Shiki actually looks kind of good with this white backpack. To bad its missing its binders.

    • Another great episode guys! That PG Unicorn is perfection. I hope they come out with more Master Grades from the Build Fighters anime like the Transient Gundam and the Wing Gundam Fenice.

    • Let me win some HG !

    • Nice review of the mega shiki 😀

    • Hi there!Am surprised you compared the MK-III with a “small” MG but not with a big MG like the Sazabi or the Nu. I think it’s about the same size, thus confirming that an MG of this thing could be possible. As for the Unicorn, I was really hoping that the reflection from the LEDs would light up a bit the biceps’psychoframe and the ankle, but from the video, it’s clearly not the case. Am definitely gonna have to add more LEDs to light up these parts.Now I can start building this monster.

    • How can I win when it’s only 2 days and the comments more than 300 ERRRRRRR!!!!!!!

    • I love these episodes, always seeing that PG Unicorn blows my mind. I want to get 1 but cannot currently spend that kind of money (well i can but i dont have the time to put it together lol).

      I cant wait for the dark matter exia MG, once I see you guys review it, I think I will want to buy it myself since I am a HUGE gundam 00 fan.

    • awesome show as always guys..keep up the good work..hoping for new MG from Bandai as there havent any MG that really excites me these few month.hoping for a 3.0 Zaku as I’ve never build an MG Zaku before.

    • GUNPLA!

    • GIVEAWAY! High Mobility Zaku Come To Me XD

    • Great ep as always
      I think the replacements are cuter than the originals!!!
      All jokes aside keep up the good work

    • Pretty girls on gunpla scene! Nice episode!

    • Uc era yay. Already got a psycho zaku but i dont mind having another

    • If I ever get a PG Unicorn, I might leave the armor off, It looks way cooler that way.

    • awesome episode as always. need more zaku’s in my life. just finished my first custom paint job. black and gold rg zaku ii

    • Just built my sinanju, and it would be nice to have another bad guy suit.

    • Too many good kits!

      I’ve got pile of kits to build and a 1 year old. If Bandai could just hold off making awesome stuff for like, a year or two? Get the kid to where I can work while he’s around? That would be super.

    • Great episode guys, can’t believe its been that many episodes,I’ve been watching you guys since episode 2,its been a long time.

    • THUNDER BOLT :O

    • great ep love that PG Unicorn but Please let me win one of those HGUC babys before my birthday pass 🙂

    • What are ur opinions of the newly released pictures of the RG 00 Raiser? predicting any weight issues? also wat about the hgbf full clothe crossbone? what makes it hgbf

    • Hey sid and ryan. Great episode. Just want to ask, what is the difference between RE/100 and no grade 1/100 scale? Tnx in advance. Keep on inspiring us guys. Rock on.

    • Sick episode Syd and Ryan. Looking forward towards the next Gunplay TV.

    • That psycho Zaku is probably one of the best high grades out.

    • Cant wait for the finished PG unicorn with the armor on.

    • Love them grunt suits.

      (Specifically Jegan, of course)

    • I just want to try my luck. My previous comments also never get chosen before

    • Awesome sauce!

    • Hey Syd, those certain idols you mentioned probably just forgot to put on their makeup. Makeup does wonders.

    • Great episode. Its nice to see bandai strengthen the rigidity of the RE/100 kits. I have a old heavy arms custom from the gundam wing series and its literally heavy arms, can’t hold up its own weapons. Love the designs on the thunderbolt suits, can never have enough stuff on your backpack when going into space.

    • Nyanpasu~ (=゚ω゚)ノ

    • Amazing MK3 kit, although not master grade it still does the original gundam a favor. I always love seeing older gundam model kits like zaku’s and the original gundam. Keep up the amazing work!

    • Rolling the dice!

    • That was a great episode. The Mega-Shiki looks cool and so does the PG Unicorn. Hope I win something this time. I would love to add another HG to my collection.

    • First Time watching ,Great Show i cant wait for the next one

    • Syd! You’ve got the rifle backwards! It goes on the inside of the arm! :p Also, your Unicorn is looking great! Looking forward to the next episode! Keep up the good work.

    • Need me dat high mobility Zaku

    • Nice Video guys Keep them HGs and MGs Coming !!!!

    • Give me freebies!

      On a different note, Syd you should give Gundam Build Fighters a try, at least season 1

    • Grunt suit love for the win! Also, great episode as always. Looking forward to the next one.

    • Another great episode.. I love the little skits from the girls.

      It’s gonna be a gunpla few months as I’m ok temporary disability. Managed to finish my MG Gelgoog, and a Strike Noir so far. Not sure of the next kit.. thinking RX-782 3.0. I’d love a PG Unicorn.. just not in the cards right now.

    • love this show, how possible would it be for me to work with you guys!!!?

    • Awesome! We’re watching you here from Uruguay!

    • It may be high mobility however, it’s acceleration and speed are low 😛

    • Finally after watching all 164 episodes I’m all caught up with all the Gunpla TV Episodes. And my favorites episodes are the RG XXXG-00W0 Wing Zero Custom, RG GN-001 Gundam Exia(which I just got and built 7’12”) and all the Build videos that you’ve done.

    • Long time anime/gundam watcher, but only recently started looking at getting into gunpla a little! Previously had some experience with Games Workshop and Zvezda models, and now looking forwards to getting into the groove once more! Though, not so looking forwards to the 4 week delivery times, and however much i’ll need to spend on new paints. Enjoying the shows, maybe i’ll get lucky and see my name on one.

    • Nice work as always gents. As well as the ladies, that Mega Shiki is looking fantastic.

    • RE/100 MKIII is really on of the better designs and it will look beautiful after a paint job by a serious modeller, trust me. Sometimes lees is more and I would trade all those fancy MG gimmicks for a cool design anytime! 😛

      PS.: Still waiting for those GD-53 0080 decals I ordered back in 2013. My longest open order ever 😀 Hey Syd, could you please check if it is discontinued or there is still hope? Thanks!

    • Another great episode. Keep up the good work!

    • You Syd, tell the girls to show some enthusiasm, they seem a bit disinterested. Also Marasai looking good on the shelf!

    • Great episode guys, it’ll be good if more MG gundam build fighter models come out soon.

    • Ive always wanted a jegan! Please number generator gods

    • Love it !!!

    • I love that your adding more people keep up the good work

    • great episode again, I need to keep up with all my homework, I’m glad i can just take a break and watch you guys. I’m so busy these days

    • Hey, Anna and Lindsey make another appearance! I hope they’re becoming regulars on the show. Syd’s unicorn frame looks awesome.

    • Hey Syd and Ryan! Quick question, do I win?

    • Great episode guys! I hope I can get my hands on that PG Unicorn one of these days! Hope I win!!!

    • Nice Episode !!! After that i wonder…Maybe i should use the PG Unicorn instead of my Table Lamp

    • Nice show as always, I really enjoy watching ur episodes, i didnt used to post comments cuz i was lazy and to be honest i have very bad luck but i had nothing to lose jajjaja

    • Sweet, sweet plastic love.

    • Thanks for doing this great show. Because of you i´m back to the Gundam world.

    • A question to the members: Is there a simpler way of checking these comment “threads” than manually searching through the long list of comments? Thanks all.

    • Really like the look of the mark III. I’m a big fan of the zeta style face. Great show as always

    • wish my girlfriend (also named Anna) was into Gundam as much as HLJ Anna was haha…anyways great episode guys!

    • !!!!! 😉

    • MEGA SHIKKKIIIII

    • sweet episode guys!

    • love this show

    • guys UC is the most beautiful series

    • Amazing. Gundam is getting better and better!

    • Great episode as usual. What is going on with HLJ’s supply of MGs? Are you guys just selling out quickly or is Bandai not producing MGs in the same quantities anymore?

    • Please let me win guys!!!

    • Damn, those thunderbolt kits are just loaded with gear lol

    • Want to win!

    • Please!! hope i win!

  • Red Five Battle of Ceres (1st Limited Edition) by Kotobukiya (Available From HobbyLink Japan – HLJ.com)

    Red Five is all put together. I’m about to heap some praise at the end, so let’s see why!

    All […]

    • The ability to stand was probably not a high priority as the model is supposed to depict the appearance of Red 5 during the battle of Ceres, which occurred outside of any planetary atmosphere.

      Out of the six Units in Team Rabbits only Gold Four, Black Six and possibly Blue One could be made into model kits that would be able to stand unaided. Purple Two and Rose Three however, would be out of the question as they have no legs whatsoever.

    • Would you have a video for this review Robert?

    • I just finished this kit and it is awesome!
      but instead of the normal mode, i did the full burt rout, but hell you can do both, is as easy as swap a few parts and open a few flaps, here’s mine:

    • I’ve ordered my share of hands in the past, but you my friend set me to shame. Hahaha
      But I have to say, they work great.
      If you don’t mind me asking, what kits are you going to use them for?

    • I am using the square hands to replace ,MG Gundam Unicorn+Banshee, MG Gundam Rx79 G+ Ez8 , MG Gundam Rx78. and MG powered GM when i get it and MG GM ground type.

  • Syd wrote a new post 9 years, 8 months ago

    It’s been a busy week here in the office and when Syd and Ryan sat down to discuss what to show in this week’s episode Syd mentioned the MK-III. Then he showed Ryan the box. Then he had a […]

    • Outstanding build Syd. I very much appreciate you taking time to build this kit for us. I already bought mine and now I’m much more excited in building it than before. And one of the reasons is because is taller than I thought.

      On a side note, this guy has a full armor variant. I suppose we can expect a FA set from bandai in the moths to come. I really hope the MK-IV and MK-V get the RE treatment. I want more of this obscure mobile suits for the RE line.

      • i know its got nothing to do with the gundam models etc but could any of the hobbylink members can a 1/12 Yamaha YZF-R1 Taira Racing or any type of 1/12 bike model pleaseee

    • I love the build I am not really a fan of that gundam model but if it was repainted and customized a little I could like it looks to be based off of the lighting gundam.

    • nicely done, mkIII is pretty amazing.

    • sweet RE line is pretty awesome hope the next kit will be just as awesome

    • good job syd…

    • That is pretty cool. I’m gonna get myself one of those sooner or later. Nice job Syd.

    • To be perfectly honest, I don’t see why to make a RE/100 out of this suit. I doesn’t look that big to me. When I’m thinking of RE/100, I think of Kshatriya and the Nightingale as they’ve done already.
      Feels to me that if Bandai went an extra half mile (yes, not even a mile), they would have given us an excellent new MG….

      But that’s just my opinion 😉

      • Less an issue of size and more an issue of potential profits. The MK-III as far as Bandai is concerned lacks the popularity to warrant a full MG release; which in part is why the RE /100 exists to give lesser known suits a chance to make it your display case.

      • So far all the suits announced for the RE/100 line have been from obscure side stories (except the MSK-008 Dhijeh) that were all released as Resin Kits from B-Club and were unbelievably expensive; ¥68,000 for a 1/100 Nightingale, ¥24,800 for a 1/100 Mk-III compared to the Re/100 ¥8,000 and ¥3,500 recommended retail price.

    • Nice kit.. slick and different design from other MS that we’ve seen until now

    • i like the model but i really don’t care for the colors that it has. had the colors on it have been different (maybe add some black it there) i think i would have like it a whole lot better.

    • I want to grab one of these at a later date and give it a full white color make over.

      Someday MK-III, someday.

    • Awesome build

    • I think the point of having this kit as an RE/100 than to be a MG treatment is that they(bandai) realize that this kit will not sell as much as common kits which appear in anime series and movies which if they made it into MG and the price is high will not sell/demand as the Hi Nu gundam or Nu gundam (which both kits are more massive and a handful of parts than the MK III). To think that I’m not familiar with this kit just the “real” gunpla fans will appreciate this and “maybe” this will also open new gunpla builders (like myself) to indulge farther to the gunpla world.

    • nicely done syd…
      I like

    • im not a fan of RE:boren gunpla to be honest, this one got some of my respect

    • Great Vedic as always!! Hope the make a rg exia dark matter. Is the mg exia dark matter out yet?

    • Never seen an RE kit before and i’m wondering is it just me or using 6 hours to build a HG is considered slow?

    • awesome build video!!!

      saweeeeeet!!!!

      this was so fun to watch. thanks! can’t wait to get mine!

    • great vid, I might get one to repaint (not a fan of the colors or stickers)

    • I’m just curious, what nippers are those that Syd’s using? He’s just blazing through the runners.

    • It looks great, and you finished it really fast!

    • Looking at the list of discontinued 1/100 B-Club Resin Kits on HLJ there is about forty or so kits waiting to be “reborn” as a RE/100. I wouldn’t usually expect most of them to get chosen, but as they revealed that the Dijeh would be the fourth model in the line, anything is possible.

      I would be pleasantly surprised if any of the following mobile suits make there way into the RE/100 line:

      Desert GM
      Domuttlia
      Dowadge
      Efreet
      Full Armor Gundam MkII
      Gaplant
      Gelgoog Land Type
      GM Cannon
      Gouf Flight Type
      Gundam Pixy
      Hyakushiki Kai
      Kowloon Gundam
      OZ-06 Mobile Suit Leo
      OZ-07AMS Aries Full Kit
      Regelgu
      Re-GZ Custom
      Rick-Dias GK Version
      RX78-6 Gundam Mudrock
      Zaku Desert Type
      Zaku Recon Type

    • Looks awesome. I really think the RE line is a god send for all those less known MS. Maybe we will finally see the RX-105 XI Gundam in this grade, haha.

    • Oh Well… lets hope i win…. PICK ME PICK ME~!

    • Tryin my luck this week for a HG! n_n

    • entering my comment here, now waiting …

    • “why don’t i ever win?!” (This may be good luck) But seriously why does the high mobility zaku have ammo on his fuel tanks?

    • it’s so bluuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuue

    • I LOVE THE THUNDERBOLT KITS. THANKS FOR THE GREAT SHOW AS ALWAYS.

    • my friends another awesome episode of kits haha the docking was great

    • The mega shiki looks great, even though its based off the hyaku shiki, i really love the sleek design!

    • Bad luck again, didn’t win the justice…to the anime store!

  • Hi,
    I finally managed to start the kit, it is a lovely kit with Pe included. The Pe is very delicate and fun to use, railing bends in the proper places, and I started with doing the railing around the hull and the cannons.
    Hope to advance with the kit soon, as real life gets in the way :)…
  • Nice Group logo! Recently watched a re-edit of the prequels that combines them all into a single 3 hour movie. It was way better that the original prequels, Jar Jar Binks was completely removed, but even then it kinda sucked 🙁
