First of all, I hope you guys at HLJ had a great (and safe) Xmas as well as New Year’s Day!
Todd totally was transported to another dimension when he ate that strawberry egg thing. 🤣 I suppose this tradition is more akin to the practice of gift exchanging with loved ones during Xmas these days? But in this case, I presume this is more of a…[Read more]

There has been a lot of impressive SD kits in 2020. I’m waiting for an SDCS 00 series.

I’m not surprised that the PG Unleashed RX-78-2 Gundam was the winner.

The RG ZGMF-X56S/α Force Impulse Gundam is a great kit from what I hear. There’s already a P-Bandai for the RG ZGMF-X56S/β Sword Impulse Gundam and I presume one for ZGMF-X56S/γ Bl…[Read more]

I’m wonder why some Bandai products are made in China. I know that the HiRM model kits are made in China partially. I think it’s the inner frame that’s made in China. Apparently this kit is made in China as mentioned at the 2:57 mark.
Is there a chance that we’ll get more higher quality model kits for Demon Slayer? Maybe through the Figure-Rise…[Read more]

So essentially, this line up is the PokePla equivalent to the Entry Grade, GunPla kits?

Given how briefly this appears in the anime, I’m surprised Bandai did not release this via P-Bandai.

Well technically speaking we’ve had many releases of the XXXG-00W0 Wing Gundam Zero Custom over the years; the iteration from the anime.

This MG is the XXXG-00W0 Wing Gundam Zero EW “Ver.Ka”; the iteration from the manga.

It’s shocking to think that it’s been 16 years since MG XXXG-00W0 Wing Gundam Zero Custom’s release.

I’m surprised…[Read more]

The GN-0000DVR/SM Gundam 00 Sky Moebius is an interesting design. I’m surprised that the HG GN-0000DVR/SM Gundam 00 Sky Moebius is not a P-Bandai.
In regards to the Hello Kitty kit…The original RX-78-2 Gundam used the SD EX Standard as its base. This new one is using the SDCS as its base.

I see that Todd made up his own song and posted the lyrics? 🤣 It reminds me of the nightmare that was the Atlantis world in Kingdom Hearts 1 especially and a bit also with Kingdom Hearts 2. 😱

I’m not a fan of underwater mobile suits to be honest so this is probably not something I would get. I look forward to seeing your videos on the MG…[Read more]

I’m hyped for the MG XXXG-00W0 Wing Gundam Zero EW “Ver.Ka”. I presume we’ll see Bandai reuse much of this towards making MG XXXG-00YSW Wing Gundam Snow White Prelude, MG XXXG-01W Wing Gundam EW “Ver.Ka”, and MG Drei Zwerg add on set.

Todd…
That poster is of the XXXG-00W0 Wing Gundam Zero Custom; as seen in the OVA/movie version. The MG XXXG-00W0 Wing Gundam Zero EW “Ver.Ka” that just came out is based on its iteration from ‘Glory of the Losers’. There’s a whole bunch of changes like:
– the transformation to Bird Mode & Neo Bird Mode added back
– the shield added back

I wondered about that Load/Lord naming thing. I agree this could very well be a situation where someone got Lord and Load confused.
That sticker sheet though… 😱.
I agree that we could see an HG MHF-01Ω Lord AstrayΩ.
In the time stamp, you guys wrote it as “Color Deparation”? I presume you guys meant Separation?
That is a weird choice. T…[Read more]

I presume this version is from RockMan X3 ~ RockMan X6? Are there other releases of Zero from Kotobukiya like the RockMan Zero series? Is there an X1/X2 version of Zero with the rounded shoulders? Is there an X7 or X8 version?
The thumbs up pose could be used to recreate the pose Zero does in the games when he beats an “Irregular” (i.e. Maverick)…[Read more]

I feel like with the MHF-01DR Load Astray Double Rebake they meant to say ‘Lord’.

It’s nice that the Figure-Rise Standard comes with option parts to make Future Gohan. I’m surprised you guys didn’t mention that.

MG XXXG-00W0 Wing Gundam Zero EW “Ver.Ka” is definitely one of those MGs that I’ve been wanting for so long. I’d like a live…[Read more]

Of the new kits release, the MG GN-005 Gundam Virtue is what I look forward to most.

The RG RX-93-ν2 Hi-ν Gundam was expected. I’m sure fans will be excited.
I’d guess a lot will be repurposed parts.

The release of HG RX-105 Ξ Gundam is something fans are excited for but I think people will get HG RX-105 Ξ Gundam VS HG RX-104FF Penelope Fun…[Read more]

The Figure-rise LABO Asuka Langley looks good. I presume we’ll be seeing one for Rei?

This MG is most often called XXXG-00W0 Wing Gundam Zero Custom as this is before the ‘EW’ naming was used and it’s not a Ver.Ka release; even though the design itself is done by Katoki-san.

Previous related releases include:
MG XXXG-01W Wing Gundam “Ver.Ka”
Release Date: 2004 March
Price: ¥3,500

MG XXXG-00W0 Wing Gundam Zero…[Read more]

It’s a shame this is in that ugly golden mustard color.

The HGUC NRX-055 Baund Doc is definitely a BIG BOI, and I’m sure fans are excited for this release.
This mobile suit’s mobile armor mode reminds me of the GAT-X303 Aegis Gundam and the mobile suit design overall reminds me of IBO mobile suits.

That kind of red sticker isn’t the best for sure from the reviews I’ve seen.
However, there is a…[Read more]

The fact that HGs are now implementing an inner frame system amazes me.
By the way, where are the pictures…? 🤔

MG GF13-017NJII G Gundam came out 2001 November.
MG GF13-001NHII Master Gundam came out 2002 March.
MG GF13-017NJ Shining Gundam came out 2002 May.
MG GF13-021NG Gundam Spiegel came out 2002 August.

There was a G Gundam Version Up Parts release in 2002 November that came in the 2002 November issue of Dengeki Hobby.

There was a ‘Special…[Read more]
