Hi @Syd and @Ryan I was rewatching all the previous Gunpla TV and notice that few times people have been commenting about virtual on kits..when will you do it since Bandai wont have any interesting kits apart from PG Banshee and MG Rx78-2 Origin.
Syd has recovered (kinda) and Ryan has returned (kinda) and they are both back in the studio to talk about the what they’ve been working on while they were away from the studio. Syd’s got something red and […]
Hey, Syd and Ryan there’s been some talk about Bandai asking online stores to stop exporting their Star War kits outside Japan. Is there any truth or confirmation about this?
welcome back Ryan and it’s good to see Sid is feeling better. As for the amazing red warrior it’s just begging for an optimus prime or nemesis prime paint job!
The MG Amazing Red Warrior seems a lot more interesting than I expected. These giveaways are all really cool. Would have liked to find out the mystery prize. Congratulations to all the winners.
Thanks for another GREAT episode. I’m really impressed with the Amazing Red Warrior. Def on my list as a kit to get! Looking forward to all the new Star Wars kit news too! Keep up the great work guys!
Other than model kits, I also like documentation so I hope I win that little booklet! Just wondering how did you get it? I also hope that Bandai will release something Code Geass related as Code Geass: Akito the Exiled episode 3 just came out!
So many revives, reborns, and new versions of gunpla coming out. What a time to be alive. Great to see Ryan back with some more Star Wars, and Syd with more MG. Sweet Episode and here’s to many more.
glad to have you guys back, the ladies did an awesome job. every time i see those huge heads on the gundam they showed I want to built it a helmet! Cool show as usual, keep it up ladies and gents!
Glad both of you are back!!! Can’t wait for the show and see some new kits, just make sure upload the video asap, so people like me can see it oversea. Hope Sid you get well soon.
why couldnt i be born in japan… lol id love to get one of those booklets 😀 im hoping they announce a new MG or POSSIBLY another RE, what do you guys think?
Can’t wait to get my sand trooper 🙂 and i just saw all the new Bandai star wars kits that are coming out soon – Eps 7 x-wing and millennium falcon, new stormtrooper, bb 8 and new tie fighter. super excited!!!!!
welcome back syd and ryan! with all these new revive kits, hopefully they’ll remake some of the other older MG kits. *hint hint MG freedom* lol good to see you guys and always looking forward to the new episodes.
Love that Amazing Red Warrior, Im glad that syd is feeling better 🙂
I build the HGCE Freedom a few days ago and love every bit of it. Now i need to finish the RG Red Astray off. Keep up the good work ryan and syd 🙂
As surprised as I am with the HG Revive Freedom, as disappointed I am with the Amazing Red Warrior… Glad I held out on that one.
Thanks guys, now we’re never gonna figure out what was in that box!!!!!!!
In the whole history of Gunpla TV Giveaway I’ve never ever seen a picture posted of a kit won by one of the contenders, nor red a comment on the blog by most of the contenders, let alone a winner….. 🙁
Cool episode. Nice to see everyone looking good and the new Freedom looks super cool, I’m considering using it to build a Strike Rouge custom suit, kit bash thing.
So glad to see you’re better Syd! Welcome both back to the show, though the girls did a very good job as always when they fill in for you.
I am starting to want that Amazon Red kit, it’s looking better every time I see it, and the Revive Freedom does make the old one look so awful it makes me sad.
Anyway, so far I haven’t won anything but those catalogs are so awesome I want one!!!!!! (will this be the one?)
Keep up the good job guys, cheers from Costa Rica!
I bought the HG Amazing Red Warrior, but I haven’t built it yet. After seeing this episode, I really wish I had held out for the MG because it looks significantly cooler.
I’m glad you’re getting better Syd. Keep on taking your Vitamin C!
I don’t understand why everybody thinks that Phantom Menace was that bad of movie. From what I heard one of the only main problems with it was Jar-Jar. I understand he was annoying, but I don’t really think that affected it that much. To me the light saber fight (with Darth Mall) and the pod racing scenes made up for it.
I don’t even care that Syd coughed all over the revive pamphlets. I still want one. Thanks for reading my comment. I posted a pic of the custom petit bearguy that looks like me in the hobbylink TV group since you asked. Can’t wait to see how the Slave 1 turns out.
Good show as always guys. Glad everyone is back in force… LOL
Just finished my PG Unicorn I picked up from HLJ a while back. Posed it next to my PG Strike Freedom and wow. Compared to the Freedom the Unicorn looks like a tank. I didn’t realize the size difference was so much. Like Ryan said about the storm trouper, the Freedom has these tiny thin legs compared to the tree trunks of the Unicorn.
I’ve posted some shots of my build in the “Custom Gundam” forum to share.
Keep up the great work and come on Mr. Random.org, smile on me with some goodies!
Welcome back guys, awesome episode as always. I have a question, do you think we will see the AGE-FX as a Master grade or is it HG and SD we have to live with?
“What’s in the Box!?”
Anyway, thanks for the episode guys and the nifty giveaway this time. The MG ARW looks fun, but I am waiting for some more non-Build Fighter MGs and, of course, new RGs. Glad to see you back, Ryan.
Yo. Sid. I had mixed feeling about the release of the MG Amazing Red Warrior. Before it’s announced, I was already making my Amazing Red Warrior custom from the MG RX 78 2 ver.3.0. So i was pretty pissed ><. But i'll still continue making it and still buy the MG. lol btw, glad to see you're well and back. Ryan too. 🙂
Still on the fence with the MG Amazing Red Warrior. It looks nice and the weapons make it really “amazing”, but I think it needs an extra color to separate all the bright and dark reds. I never had an RX-78 2.0, so it may still be an interesting build for me. On the other hand, I was almost locked on skipping the Revive line until I saw the upcoming Mk. IIs and Qubeley. Now I have the Revive Guncannon and RX-78-2 awaiting construction. So the MG ARW may still find its way to my shelf…
Btw, nice to see you guys again in this new episode. Syd, I hope you fully get well soon. Ryan, the Star Wars reviews are great. If I had extra cash I’d probably buy a few of those figures someday.
Hey Syd, Ryan, Anne, and Lindsay! Nice to see the episodes coming out more often again. Always nice to see the reviews on new kits, although I do miss the customizing tips. Here’s hoping I get one of those magazines, that would be cool.
The red warrior Looks pretty cool with the exception of the neck. It Looks like the neck has been stretched from it’s socket.lol
I’m actually thinking of getting the revive series rx-78 mk II. It’s looking decent.I’ll wait for a proper Review though first.
Now, Lady luck, let me win a gundam catalog. yeah!
Hey, Syd. I want to see a custom model made by you! I love the Steingeese from episode 118, and it would be great to se another custom in the show. ^_^
Gotta win something! I was really hoping to get the mystery box too D= Speaking of Hobby Japan, I noticed some places are still selling the Caletvwlch Fire – does that only fit the Wing Gundam Honou, or could other kits use it?
That Freedom Revive looks amazing! And with the October issue of Hobby Japan it’s the perfect time to pick it up! Thanks guys (and gals) for another quality episode of Gunpla tv!
Glad to see you`re better Syd. So last Sat/Sun here in Bulgaria we had an anime festival with a gunpla workshop(woo-hoo) which I was supervising i.e. giving advice to newbies ( which most were 😀 ) helping with build problems and giving advice/info about the hobby…have you done this type of thing before and got some tips for me ? Since it seems I`ll be doing this more and more often 🙂
You can definately see the vast improvements from the Older Hg to the new revive kits and just as easy for the younger builders too. Awesome.
Love the new Bandai STAR WARS Kits but, IF BANDAI CAN PUT WATERSLIDE DECALS IN EVERY STAR WARS KIT THEN WHY CAN’T THEY PUT THEM IM RG KITS!!!!!!!!!!!! I have no problem paying a little more to have the option in the kit and I don’t have to worry about them selling out before I get around to buying the kit. So Frustrating.
OK finished ranting now. Great show as always. Good to see SYD back among the living.
yeah..agreed with you..even the expensive ver ka also dont always have the waterslides..they should atleast give it with all MG kits since MG kits is more expensive and most of the buyer would be more than willing to pay more just as to get the waterslides.
It’s a pretty good business decision on Bandai’s part, actually. Most people won’t bother to apply those pesky waterslide decals anyway; producing them in limited amounts at premium prices that are sure to sell out ensures max profit.
while that is a very true and correct statement the fact that there are so many aftermarket knockoff waterslide decal sheets out there on fleabay ( which I am myself purchasing even if they are 10% different to the originals )leads one to believe that there is much higher demand than they are supplying to and therefore a much greater profit that they are missing out on.
Great to see you guys back again, and Syd, I know how you are feeling, been fighting the flu myself.
Sad to hear that Bandai is restricting their Star Wars kits to be sold only in Japan. I was looking forward to some of the new Epi VII kits. Also see some of the current SW kits have been taken down from your site … hope thats not a sign of things to come.
This is really how the HG Freedom should have been!! I remember even as a kid, being disappointed in the articulations of Freedom, especially since it was/is one of my favorite Gundam.
I actually didn’t notice difference in proportion until the two Freedoms were side by side. That’s a hugeee change.
Hi Syd and Ryan awesome show as always. I have some ideas for future model kits for example a real grade sword impulse Gundam that has the core fighter transformation feature and a high grade revive zeong
What do you guys think will be this year’s big December kit? Or what would you want Bandai to release? With Origins Ep 2 coming out, I am predicting we will see a Zaku II 3.0 or ver Ka, although I’m not too sure that would qualify as a “big” kit.
Hi guys,
Thanks for the show again. Any RG predictions (any new RG coming after the Red Astray?)
Love the revive RX-78-2.
A copy of the catalog would be nice to have if it is not to late.
Thanks again.
Sad to hear the news about the Star Wars Kits. I’ll still continue buying from HLJ. Nice show again guys. I really, really, really want that… catalogue!
just saw news about the hg meteor and rg infinite justice, pretty excited,
and damn the hg barbatos box art is awesome, now I am consider to getting one. I was gonna wait for the anime then decide lol
cant wait to the new perfect grade kit coming out at the end of the month but im wondering if the led kit is going to be different for the banshee norn or if the led for the pg unicorn could be used for the banshee
That red warrior looks amazing. (Badum ptsss) anyways, great episode and hope to see more of the mg build fighters line! By the way, i built a jibanyan (youkai watch) that was featured in a past hobby link episode, and i must admit its pretty cute. Hahahaha
Great Channel. I’m half way through my first Gundam. HGBF Sengoku Astray. I’m 51, imagine that – lol. The red warrior looks awesome. I have the RG Wing Gundam Zero EW cued up next. Not sure what’s after that. I like the small size of the HG/RG but he detail of the MG is tempting.
No more Bandai Star Wars Kits for the U.S.! AHHH, I feel a great disturbance in the force, as if millions of modelers cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced! Well, some of the new Revell kits released in Oct and Nov are not that bad, and they will re-release the 1/48 Fine Molds kits.
Finally got the last 2 kits for my G-Reco collection being the Kabakali and the Prefect G-Self. Also picked up the RG Astray Red Frame.
Next stop, PG Banshee!
Ya that was a challenge. The approach I took was to do all the parts completely before assembling. Paint, prime, clear, panel line, decals, clear again. Still some sections that I thought would not get much handling I left unprotected, MISTAKE. That’s some of the touch up work I still have to do. I didn’t realize just how delicate the unprotected…[Read more]
Oh and I used Pledge for the clear coat too for my clear coats. I put two light coats on for each layer. First really light dusting and the second just to wet so it would level.
Question on water slides: why are they so difficult to get? HLJ is not the only place on the web that sells them but everywhere is the same: huge and permanent out of stocks. So Syd and Ryan do you know why those water slides are so hard to get world wide? I hate the stickers, even the latest “RG style” ones and I never start a kit if I don…[Read more]
they’re not released frequently..my waterslides I’ve to wait for few months the same as the LED set from hlj..I just ordered them even being backordered but my waiting usually fruitfull except for my MG RX-78-2 3.0 waterslides they have to take out from my order since Bandai discontinued them..maybe I’ve to make it myself since I can get the…[Read more]
