Thanks as always Jabman. Can’t begin to tell you how happy your videos make me. Found this channel years ago and have rewatched many of them. Always helps in picking my next kit. Makes my day when I get the notification that you have a new video out. Take care.
The MK5 for me, with a free shipping deal directly from P-Bandai US was just under $100. Was very skeptical of that price, but was worth. every. penny. Outside of Mid-UC kits nearly always being my jam, it was just such an incredibly fun build. I know there’s a lot of love for other eras, but Zeta-CCA is still peak mecha design and many of them modernize so well.
This made me so warm and fuzzy inside. I loved the MKV, it looks so nice on my shelf next to my Ex-S 1.5 and my FAZZ Ver Ka and I was rooting for it to win your prestigious award, lol. I have a feeling once production normalizes some, the MKV will get some more reprints even though it’s a P-Bandai. It’ll probably get printed about as often as the Ex-S, so more often that most p-Bandai releases but not quite as much as more mainstream MG kits. It’s quite a popular kit. I’m hopeful that since it came out as p-Bandai, it means we’ll get a regular release Silver Bullet or Doven wolf. Who the hell knows though, I can’t predict anything Bandai is doing right now. I’m just glad we got that kit.
Can you do a top 10 or top 5 master grade of the year kit video? Essentially a best of the best master grade kit video. Thanks for the great Gunpla content over the years.
Interesting choice going with MG ORX-013 Gundam Mk-V. Yea. It definitely has been a rough year for you. I'm glad you eventually got around to doing the yearly MG of the year video. My favorite MG from 2021 would be GN-005 Gundam Virtue of course. But other MG releases from 2021 that I liked: - Expansion Set for Wing EW Series (The Glory of Losers Ver.) - GN-001REIII Gundam Exia Repair III - OZ-00MS Tallgeese Flugel EW Speaking of which, I find it odd we don't have an MG Trans-Am version for GN-005 Gundam Virtue or GN-003 Gundam Kyrios yet. I would guess those would come if/when we get an MG 2.0 for GN-001 Gundam Exia and its variants like its Roll Out and Trans-Am colors to round out and _complete_ the 00 Season 1 main MGs?
My MkV is still in my backlog. I prefer to not burn through the Gunpla backlog quickly, as this is not a cheap hobby, so your endorsement makes it a case of delayed gratification for me. (Currently got a half-built MG Barbatos to tide me over.) Keep it up man and thanks for the reviews.
I really enjoyed building the Mk V, but I do wish the kit featured more surface detail. As for the design of the suit itself, I'm a bit torn. Upper body and head are great, but the legs being so far apart is kind of goofy. It's not the fault of the kit, but it's a design that looks better on a stand in an action pose.
MG Mk V is damn good. But the price to get one is already as such at over 100USD as of this point. All that is based off of it are on the way for all of its own worth.
Thanks for the upload, its a nice kit. What are your criteria for MG Kit of the year. Did the kit have to be released in that year or built in that year?
If p ban gets another run of it ill get it, or if they make a Doven Wolf or Silver Bullet out of it, im hoping at least one of those gets to be retail, I'd be super happy.
If you’re ever wondering why there’s a lack of MG Re-Gz listings now a days, it’s not because there’s no demand. I AM THE DEMAND. I’ve a bot running that scours the internet for the devil’s spawn and instantly buys out every listing of this cursed model kit. You may be wondering, how does one afford such a thing? I don’t. The United States Government does. I am a government agent tasked with a very special mission: Removal of all unbuilt regz’s from private hands and subsequent removal from existence(via contained orbital strike). The MG Re-Gz is considered illegal psychological warfare by the United States Government and is therefore subject to vaporization. Not one single person more shall be a victim of this dreaded conglomerate of plastic. Bandai has been on watch since they released this through and through war crime and shall be dealt with swiftly, should they commit the same mistake twice.
Most of the time i agree with you jabman. But not today. For me Mk V looks hideous. Line art or model kit. And $150 can't justify his looks. But i still follow you. Most of the kits i bought are just based on your thumbs up reviews
Totally agree. It's a solid kit, high quality of runners, color separated parts and sturdiness. Definitely the most fun build I had in 2021.
Good choice I can dig it. I'll say a prayer for you Jabman.

Thank you…I started building master grade kits a few years ago and have learned so much from your videos.
Glad to help

I got the FAZZ, I'd be happy with either of the other two but if I had my choice it would be MK-V. Gonna be a minute but I'll get it
Thanks for the videos and reviews yours is one of the main I watch since I came back to gunpla in 2015. Keep up the great work.
Much appreciated!
just bought a crossbone Full Cloth thanks to your review. Then I wondered, is this man stil doing videos? And here I am :)
Thanks for the great gunpla content! Keep safe!
Oh, and one more thing… thanks for the reviews man, always a big help when I want to get a new model kit.
Thanks jabman for the reviews!
Great, can't wait to build mine
That's right mk. V deserve to be the kit of 2021
Thanks for your vids jabman! I hope 2022 will be a great year for you!👍
mkV is an amazing kit, loved building it
Its sad we're getting less and less of good old Master Grades these days. 1/100 is the perfect scale IMO
Andddd they release 3 more HG kit that I really don't care about ):
Totally worth it!
Can you do a top 10 or top 5 master grade of the year kit video? Essentially a best of the best master grade kit video. Thanks for the great Gunpla content over the years.
Considering how few mg kits are released I dunno if there'd be enough kits to even do a top 5 without covering all of them
What I meant was a top 5 list of the all the previous master grade of the year kits. All essentially a top 5 master grade kits of all time.
Nice vids, man keep on building, through tough times, and good times.
Interesting choice going with MG ORX-013 Gundam Mk-V.
Yea. It definitely has been a rough year for you. I'm glad you eventually got around to doing the yearly MG of the year video.
My favorite MG from 2021 would be GN-005 Gundam Virtue of course.
But other MG releases from 2021 that I liked:
- Expansion Set for Wing EW Series (The Glory of Losers Ver.)
- GN-001REIII Gundam Exia Repair III
- OZ-00MS Tallgeese Flugel EW
Speaking of which, I find it odd we don't have an MG Trans-Am version for GN-005 Gundam Virtue or GN-003 Gundam Kyrios yet. I would guess those would come if/when we get an MG 2.0 for GN-001 Gundam Exia and its variants like its Roll Out and Trans-Am colors to round out and _complete_ the 00 Season 1 main MGs?
Jabman is a blessing
Oh fuck yea my favorite vids every year
mine MG MK-V is about to arrive in this week :)
My MkV is still in my backlog. I prefer to not burn through the Gunpla backlog quickly, as this is not a cheap hobby, so your endorsement makes it a case of delayed gratification for me. (Currently got a half-built MG Barbatos to tide me over.) Keep it up man and thanks for the reviews.
This year was a hard year to rank stuff. The Mk-V, Virtue, and Eclipse are all amazing kits.
Can't disagree with that decision despite how long I have waited for the MG virtue. It's a smashing kit :)
Love these vids, thank you for upload!
I really enjoyed building the Mk V, but I do wish the kit featured more surface detail. As for the design of the suit itself, I'm a bit torn. Upper body and head are great, but the legs being so far apart is kind of goofy. It's not the fault of the kit, but it's a design that looks better on a stand in an action pose.
No contests 💯% agree
I'm surprised I didn't expect this kit. why not the eclipse Gundam?
Hoping would be mg virtue gundam or the eclipse gundam as kit of the year. Btw i agree that mkV got that 2021 spot
You should do a top 5 kit of 2021
I regret skipping out on the Mk V in hopes of a Silver Bullet
MG Mk V is damn good. But the price to get one is already as such at over 100USD as of this point. All that is based off of it are on the way for all of its own worth.
Got mine for 120
No regrets for a masterclass juggernaut
Also a lot of people who missed out are people who don't like the design so oh well
Thanks for the upload, its a nice kit. What are your criteria for MG Kit of the year. Did the kit have to be released in that year or built in that year?
released in that year, the Virtue was released with two weeks left in December........ so it counts
I hope the Mk-V mold gets used on something which isn't P-Bandai (Doven Wolf perhaps!)
OMG I forgot this kit came out
Can you do a top 10 or 5 MG kit?
👏👏
If p ban gets another run of it ill get it, or if they make a Doven Wolf or Silver Bullet out of it, im hoping at least one of those gets to be retail, I'd be super happy.
Where did you get your mk. V? I got mine through pbandai usa.
same
I got mine from u.s. P Bandai when it went up for pre-order for about 90 bucks 160 seems a little high
$160 is crazy for this kit, but i suppose if you didn't get it from PB, it would make sense. I believe I paid $109 after tax and shipping.
thinking back I might have paid that too but shipping was rather painful.........and I count that
hmmm 🤔 I wonder what the master grade kit of the year will be for 2022..... oh wait
What would you say is the best Master Grade for complete beginners to start off with?
ua-cam.com/video/wHl7mUmfMSg/v-deo.html
$90 if u were able to snag the pre-order.
So what the best 10 in 2021?

Why is there no 2022 kit of the year?
MGEx should be a kit of the year 2020..😅
Most of the time i agree with you jabman. But not today. For me Mk V looks hideous. Line art or model kit. And $150 can't justify his looks. But i still follow you. Most of the kits i bought are just based on your thumbs up reviews
