Come along as I share my journey and experiences into proper Gundam building and the madness that goes along with it :D

Bro this is a looking great kit!
Bro was tweaking in the end😂
I lost so much respect with this Ai thumbnail
Good for you 😘
@@AlekyoBuildsGunplapleases don’t use Ai in the thumbnails it just makes the video look unappealing. And is at this as someone who loves gunpla who loves the creativity of building.
Its interesting that you consider the thumbnail for my most viewed video "unappealing" clearly the algorithm, other viewers and me think differently :)
@@AlekyoBuildsGunplasorry but no the whole point of gundam is it’s creativity if you truly were a fan of gunpla then you wouldn’t enjoy using Ai even the creator of gundam has bashed Ai
Casually gets the prize lmaoo😂😂😂
Please have a look at non-Gundam mecha and anime kits - Dougram and Votoms need love too!
CLICKBAIT!!! 😊 When you said you were going to spend that much I thought you'd be coming out with bags and bags of kits - I didn't expect you to splurge all of it on ONE KIT 😢😢😢 NEXT TIME, GO BACK IN AND DO IT PROPERLY! (lol)
BTW - just watched video where a guy used Google Lens to translate the discount sticker (yellowed decal sheet)
BTW 2 Is that your cheap dinner on the table? I'm having a cheese sandwich for my tea so I don't feel sorry for you!!! 😊😊😊
Your first short
Great video! After reading the Gundam Origins Manga it made me love the RX gundam even more, you should check out the manga
The thumbnail..... Is ai ??? Bruh
where u go
What do you mean? 😅
@AlekyoBuildsGunpla hadnt Seen any content miss your stuff
Oh I got haha. I'm working too many hour atm and also prepare for my visa extension. I have some videos filmed but not edited. I will be back and post regularly in either August or September. Thank you for caring :)
I just bought that kit, along with a burning build gundam, from a clearance sale, i don't understand what is the black rectangular cube with 003 piece is for...
What is this shop name bro ?
😂 The name is in the video bro
His spendig 20,000 yen in various things: Me spending 30,000 yen in a single figure: 🗿
now i really want to live in japan
Ty for the upload ! I was worried about building mine !
Pfft, 20000 yen is a rookie and poor number for gunpla. 😭Me looking at my wallet after pre ordering all next to be released gunpla.
Very envy of you you got to go to see the Gundam Japan. It's closing down in March you know already know that 😢 it's hard to be a gunpla fan here in South Carolina USA. Currently working on perfect grade unleashed version.
Hello! I am Japanese! Recommended is RG 1/144 Hi-ν Gundam
Yoo Nice To Meet You Alek,i have been a Gundam Fans since Mid 2021,and in the Mid 2023 i finally bought my own Gunpla,the entry Grade of my fav no 1 Gundam,the Strike Gundam🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Nice videoo! keep postingg
heck of a find mate!
My first gunpla build was entry grade ex-78-2 and now I’m building real grade unicorn with two other entry grades on the way cus I need a brake from the unicorn
Just got this exact one in Japan. How do I find the instructions to assemble it?
Ohh I don't think you get instructions with this one. They kinda expect you to have practice with model kits. Just go for it, it's rather self explaining tho! Good luck :)
really dude ?20k yen only ?? u cant buy shit with just 20k u need 40k bro wawiting your next video keep it up
😂😂😂😂 Suuuuure
Your thumbnail is terrible if i may be honest. Im very averse to the "reaction face". Sorry for being so forthcoming.
It's not a problem, one is a generalized statement, one is personal opinion 😊. The video made over 4k views so far on a new channel so it's doing it's job :)
20000 yen = 137 dollars 🤫
Yes
Isn’t the gat x105 just the strike Gundam?
Oh yes, that's true.
hard-off sounds so funny
nice deals! I'm looking forward to seeing how you get on with the builds!
New video coming soon! The Perfect Grade is part of that video :D
The RX-93 Entry Grade was my first intro to Gunpla only a few months ago. The clever, precise engineering impressed me greatly, and the build process was pure joy. Now I have built 4 more kits across HG and MG, with a couple of RG bought and waiting to be built.
Thats amazing to read because I felt exactly like that when I got the EG RX-93 in my hands. Its so cool how they managed the details without making it even slightly hard to build. I had so many HGs that solved the same details with lazy stickers :D
The actually scammed you. So in one of your videos you bought a entry grade strike gundam at 616 yen. Which is pretty cheap BTW. Just remember that this a a hg and it is limited edition cause you got it at a seven-eleven raffle. Which brings the price up. Average hg cost around 1000 yen and the lady only gave you 720 yen which is 120 percent. ( because of the ad) I am sure people will pay a higher price for this because it is rare and a raffle ticket is 790 yen which gives you a negative 70 yen profit. The cashier lady know nothing about gunpla.
My favorite Gunpla kits: Calibarn hg Rx 78-2 the origin hg Ibo shiden hg
The Calibarn HG is absolute next level in my opinion, for sure a top contender if I ever make a list like that for HGs. In general, witch from mercury upped the quality of HGs so much, it will be hard to improve from here.
Haha the thumb nail cracks me up, great video! Would love to go to japan and visit the second hand stores
Then it did its purpose. Japan is amazing to visit right now, the conversion rate from other currencies to Yen is great if you want to do a Gundam shopping tour :P
Where is this place in Japan?
There is 3 of their store in Tokyo, this one he is at is Hard Off & Hobby Off at Ueno in Taito City, Tokyo.
i saw the same gunpla lineup a day before you uploaded the video..
hahaha what a coincidence. I was struggling so hard to find the PG of RX-78-2 so if you purchased it, you got super lucky
When do these raffles happen
Almost all the time, there is probably one raffle going on at any point in time. Its not all gundam tho
I hope it will be available in the Philippines
That's awesome!
Merry Christmas 🎉, I put a lot of effort in to bring this out in time so you get some entertainment during the content "hole" of holidays. Hope you all got gifted a lot of Gunpla!
Just for some clarity, those kits are not real grades or perfect grades. They are all considered no grades. The 3 smaller kits are 1/144 but are closer in complexity to high grades than real grades. Real grades have much more part seperation and almost full inner frames. The bigger 1/48 scale kit is essentially a mega size kit, not a perfect grade which are 1/60 scale.
Thank you for that. Yeah you're totally right. I only called em that way to make it easy to communicate, however you're of course complety right. I hope I got clear enough by the fact that I stated in the beginning that I'm guessing these are "on the same level". I'll pin your comment anyway just for anyone wondering :)
GODBLESS.
GODBLESS.
Hell yeah, found a PG Rx78-2 at the local goodwill for 80 bucks half assembled a few years back.
Oh that's a great deal but I can totally see that happen at goodwill 🫣 I wish I would find a PG at that price in Japan, even if it's half assembled ☺️
Oh wow, I didn't know goodwill has Gunpla... Is this common?
@@lphighlights8852 not often at all
Is that like... 130€ ?
More like 140ish Euro buuut yeah😬
great video keep it up im a new sub!
oh thank you so much, the next videos are all filmed and almost done. Since I'm new to this, I would love to hear your feedback once they're out 😁
I bought that gashapon on my trip 10 days ago in Yokohama and when I returned to my country and assembled it , it was missing a hand in the packaging , it's outrangeous.
Nice Keep up the good work❤
Thank you so much! I will try my best for sure :)
It's a shame not a lot of people watch your video
Thank you for your kind words! I'm not to stressed about it though, if my videos are good enough, they will eventually find their way to more people, and if not, I'm happy for every person who enjoyed them :) I have a lot planned
No problem❤
Sometimes that ball joint looseness is caused by your region's humidity. They shrink and expand with the tempreture. My Gunpla all faced similar problems when I move from country to country. My EG Strike was super tight in Japan, but became loose in Australia. When I returned to Singapore it became tight again 😂. Good luck! I clear coat/ nail polish any of the joints whenever they feel loose.
Oh wow, that's actually super helpful insight! Makes total sense but I never thought of it that way. I don't think it's the issue with the EG GAT-X105, this is something I will need to keep in mind... I wanted to try out different methods like clear coating soon, since I got 3 of them to experiment :D thanks for the input, and if you got more tips, please feel free to leave em for me and others to see🫡
Me too! I nvr would have figured it out till i travelled. I assume it fits best in japan since its made there. Have a blast, Great review!
