actually i'd be on board with this. already have 2 mega size models and would love that specially if they also tossed in that barbatos lupas sword too.
Wait till they finish the whole thing and then review it so you have an excuse to compare the sizes to all the other Unicorn model kits. I know articulation won't be great but it's all about that transformation (:
I seriously HAVE to pick this up. I have the Mega Size RX-78-2 and I just adore it. I will say the one thing that put me off were the beam sabers (as you said) since the length is the same as a lot of PG sabers and even the ZZ Gundam Ver. Ka sabers. I would like some bigger ones, but they still look great! Also, I wish there was a separate pair of holding hands for the sabers, but the price for these kits is rock bottom considering the size, so I literally cannot complain. :>
I already got the PG Unicorn for my birthday and it was my first PG Gunpla and my favorite. Seeing this Mega Size, I am considering want this as my first Mega Size Gunpla.
Did you know that the reason this big boy has you put the silver sticker inside the head is because the head itself can use ANY standard LED unit? It's why they give you both eye sticker types and why the head is so conveniently hollow. Built this at a bar I hang out at and had people coming up left and right checking it out.
@Zhen Neil If you want it to light up, you can either get this Mega Size and customize it with LEDs or just buy the Perfect Grade and the LED unit that Bandai has released. ^_^
You'll be better off modding your own lights into it. Its large hollow parts makes it easy to route wires and such through to the psycoframe parts. And the psycoframe parts themselves being hollow means that light will bounce through them with no problem whatsoever. The PG's LED add-on is nice, but the design of the kit is such that some areas of psycoframe get less light than others; there are noticeable dark spots in the psycoframe. With the MSM, I can almost guarantee that a half-decent LED job will light up the entire thing more evenly.
Ok, two questions/requests:1: if you have it can we see this next to the neo-Zeong (full frontals mobile armor)2: if you have one, try and put this (and he'll, why not all of the unicorns at once) under a black light Those are the only questions I have left after this review. Still kit looks awesome, and if I wasn't crushed for space, I might get one
@Renard Toh P-Bandai is a shorthand for *Premium Bandai*. What that entails is a product of online exclusive, limited edition kits. They are released in limited numbers and are rarely, re-released. They are only sold in countries that have a Premium Bandai (or called Club-G) online store. So you either buy directly through those sites if you live in those countries, or you pay more money by purchasing them through a third party like a website that sells those limited kits. If you buy through a third party, website or on places like eBay, you should expect to pay more money since those third party sites pay extra to get the kits as is.
the next Build Fighters installment should have a hilarious battle between the HG Neo Zeong & the Mega Size Unicorn, a battle of epic proportions that is both out of scale & at the same time almost equal in size!!.
Personally i'm not sure if i'm the only one, but i kind of would love a mega size Geara Doga to be made one day. though a mega sized. built me one of these mega unicorn gundams not to long ago. and i agree by far the easiest build ive had since my first SD gundams i got when i first started to building gunplas.
@kenneth acuna Mega Size, GunPla kits are basically High Grade kits that are super scaled up to 1/48 scale. Perfect Grade kits are 1/60 in scale (smaller than Mega Size) but they are far superior in terms of details, gimmicks, number of parts, design, etc. IMO, if you want to get an RX-0 Unicorn Gundam in GunPla form at this time, I'd probably go with the Real Grade and Perfect Grade. I don't have them personally, but I've seen and read many reviews of the RX-0 Unicorn Gundam in all of its scales/grades out. The Master Grade releases of the RX-0 Unicorn Gundam is pretty good but it does have its problems. The recently released, Real Grade is amazing overall from what I hear but the shoulder joint is very stiff so you have to be careful. Again, this is all from reviews/overviews that I've read online and video reviews/overviews I've seen.
I have the HG, MG, the PG and the RG, and I'd say you're pretty much right. The PG is far and away the best version, but it's very pricey, of course, especially if you want the LEDs (and you do want them.) The RG isn't quite as good, but it's close (I think the proportions are a bit off, and there's the issue with the shoulder joints you mentioned), and given how much cheaper than the PG it is, if money's an issue, the RG's an excellent choice too. But if you can afford it, PG all the way. The MG, sadly, while very nice looking, is flimsy af. I like it, but it's basically the worst version. I actually prefer the HG.
kenneth acuna personally, size is the selling point. perfect grades are essentially bricks that you won't play with, so it really doesn't matter how much details go into articulation or frame. This thing is essentially a brick too but at least you can manhandle it all you want, as well the size makes it viable to make your own customization and LED
Wait, 7,000 yen!? For a badass figure that size, I think it's a BARGAIN! At least if you compare it to statues/poseable figures of sexy anime girls of a similar price or even higher price. Since I really love the RX-0 and Gundam Unicorn (as in the show) especially the soundtrack, and since this is at 7,000 yen I can somehow afford, it's easy to build (I'll definitely suck at assembling because I have zero Gunpla experience), and I LOVE making things I love stand out at home, I think this is calling me. Looking for a place to actually put it on is the problem though. P.S. Oh my, it's the Vist Foundation logo!
Thank you for reviewing the Mega Size RX-0 Unicorn Gundam, Mecha Gaikotsu! Was anyone else hoping that Mecha Gaikotsu would do a comparison with all of the RX-0 Unicorn Gundam side by side? Mega Scale --> Perfect Grade --> Master Grade --> Real Grade --> High Grade --> BB Senshi --> SD EX Standard That would've been impressive.
Hey, thanks for the video ! I'm actually building mine, but the knees are completely loose and I don't see anything missing... Do you have the same issue ? It's hard to make him not fall back :(
I just finished building mine as well. I have the same knee issue in the right leg, its very loose but for some reason the left leg is all normal and tight.
@Dennis Drakedarkenz I'd be surprised if Bandai doesn't make it. But then again, the Mega Size isn't really for collecting all the different variations, leads, and enemies. But still, I think that both the RX-0 Full Armor Unicorn Gundam, RX-0 Unicorn Gundam 02 Banshee, and or RX-0 [N] Unicorn Gundam 02 Banshee Norn have a good chance of getting a Mega Size release since they're all mostly the same minus colors and some parts here and there. Also, Bandai seems to love doing Unicorn series GunPla kits so there's that. At the very least, I think Bandai would release those as Premium Bandai. That would piss off a lot of fans but ultimately, many will end up buying them anyway.
Hey @MechaGaikotsu, i would like to ask, it’s obvious u know that the HGUC Unicorn Gundam had a package with the head base or the base to help posing aerial poses that shaped as the bust of the unicorn model itself, how large is this megasize compare to that huge head base? Thanks a lot! 😁
@duoduo You could always check US based stores and sites. Amazon has this for $115.99 + free shipping (for Prime members). USA Gundam has this for $89.99 + shipping. ... Florida Big Bad Toy Store has this for $109.99 + shipping. ... California Tatsu Hobby has it for $99.85 + shipping. ... California Image Anime has it for $110.00 + shipping. ... New York
you're lucky your in the u.s. you know how much more expensive it is in canada? i would have saved a thousand dollars right now since i started building last year...
@crankyboiy I suppose there are some benefits to living in the US, but Canada has things like universal health care that is so much better than the mess we have. Just be smart about where you buy your GunPla and when. I'm sure if you import kits from like HLJ, you can save a ton of money since they always price their kits lower than retail. Even with the expensive EMS shipping you should be able to save a lot of money since the actual price of the items are significantly cheaper.
@crankyboiy Oh and try not to get overambitious when buying GunPla. Don't overbuy. Really think about what series you're mostly into, and then decide if you want to collect HGs, RGs, MGs, etc. IMO, Mega Size is cool, but not really worth the money. If I wanted a big size kit, I'd go for a PG. But the cost efficient way if you're on a budget is to buy HGs only.
there's an LED slot in the head behind the eyes. I don't understand how you didn't notice it. the reflective foil sticker eyes look like shit by comparison.
Mega size
Basically a high grade that took too much growth pills
not even high grade. modern high grades have much better articulation.
@@killer13324 yeah such as barbatos and other IBO gundams
@@user-ul7cw8ww1d nah dude do you have the hg unicorn?
@@haleyleyley8951 yes I do. Both banshee norn and Unicorn.
@@danl5351 lol tall grade for the win
Now they need to make a Barbatos Lupus Rex at that size and that CAN hold its mace in one hand!
The mace will be bigger than most infants and i'm not quite okay with that
@Life Of A weeb same here. Mine had no problems
actually i'd be on board with this. already have 2 mega size models and would love that specially if they also tossed in that barbatos lupas sword too.
You're honestly asking for too much when it comes to the maze
Mega size lupus should be enough if not the 3rd form
Now we just need you to have it stand next to the 1/1 scale they are building currently (:
+ChronoPinoyX I was standing next to it yesterday :)
+Mecha Gaikotsu do you record your trip? would like to see the vlog of it!
Wait till they finish the whole thing and then review it so you have an excuse to compare the sizes to all the other Unicorn model kits. I know articulation won't be great but it's all about that transformation (:
ChronoPinoyX meron kabang gunpla?
"a pair of beam sabers, big enough to be used as chopsticks" 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
The beam saber is the same as the one used by 1/60 PG scale gundam.
My favorite quote
3:50
MEGA SIZE UNICORN FULL ARMOR NEXT!!!
Psycho Zaku pls lewl
A UN 😑
P-bandai sold seperately, coming 2018.. lol
Mega sized deep striker
How about mega size neo zeon
We need a Mega-size real grade. Imagine all the details you could fit in.
there'd probably be no use for panel lining the kit bc every single panel is a piece.
that wpuld be so fucking expensive lol
The box would be the size of a small home
*up next mega size psycho gundam*
Lol kinda impossible. Psyco Gundam is huge even in HG 1/144 that Bandai has made.
How about mega size neo zeon
Im scared of how big it would be
Well shit, that's going to be super massive
That can transform
Imagine that Bandai release a mega size Neo Zeong. You'll need a whole room to display that.
I seriously HAVE to pick this up. I have the Mega Size RX-78-2 and I just adore it.

I already got the PG Unicorn for my birthday and it was my first PG Gunpla and my favorite. Seeing this Mega Size, I am considering want this as my first Mega Size Gunpla.
I wish the RG Unicorn will come in a 1/48 scale.
They should make a new grade called GG -Great Grade and add perfect grade detail to the 1:48 mega size gundams.
Did you know that the reason this big boy has you put the silver sticker inside the head is because the head itself can use ANY standard LED unit? It's why they give you both eye sticker types and why the head is so conveniently hollow. Built this at a bar I hang out at and had people coming up left and right checking it out.
Now all it need is an LED kit.
Can't wait to see the gold plated phenex version of this.
I hope this model got a light unit, hopefully can make my bedroom lamp.....hahaha.....
@Zhen Neil
If you want it to light up, you can either get this Mega Size and customize it with LEDs or just buy the Perfect Grade and the LED unit that Bandai has released. ^_^

I think this would be perfect if it had the transformation like the real grade.
For when you want to recreate a Gurren Lagann episode with gundams
So the mega size Unicorn Gundam is a BB... G?
Bat Man omg bbg
Best coment
missile?
4:19 - did you have a stroke for a second there lmao
the audio got a bit wonky for a split second
man i cant wait to get my hands on this kit. mine's coming this october but the review makes me want it now. lol
Watching this video after the Meng Eva comparison, and man, your video really is on another level now. Keep it up!
PG unicorn: is smaller than another model
Everyone: now this is an avengers level threat
Huh?
Ok, two questions/requests:1: if you have it can we see this next to the neo-Zeong (full frontals mobile armor)2: if you have one, try and put this (and he'll, why not all of the unicorns at once) under a black light
Those are the only questions I have left after this review. Still kit looks awesome, and if I wasn't crushed for space, I might get one
This review makes me want to get this Mega Unicorn :) Very well done with the reviews Mechagaikotsu!
@Chaz Raze
I think that's the idea of a review video, no? ^_^

My in-laws are coming next week from Japan and they got this for me-so excited!
the next Build Fighters installment should have a hilarious battle between the HG Neo Zeong & the Mega Size Unicorn, a battle of epic proportions that is both out of scale & at the same time almost equal in size!!.
Best channel for gundam review ,keep it up 👍👍
Looks almost like a Medabot. I wonder if anyone will ever be crazy enough to make a lifesize Medabot kit 🤔
It will just be as tall as a human child, or a little taller.
Joeie Rivera I would kind of want it to be a perfect grade in quality, but then again I just want a Medabot irl. A guy can dream
I'll be happy if there is even a model kit of Totalizer.
Personally i'm not sure if i'm the only one, but i kind of would love a mega size Geara Doga to be made one day.
though a mega sized. built me one of these mega unicorn gundams not to long ago. and i agree by far the easiest build ive had since my first SD gundams i got when i first started to building gunplas.
I bought this since last year easy build nothing special but worth building it.
That thing is HUUUUUUUGE!!! I want the PG review next mecha...
Mega unicorn gundam phenex?
so PGs are better than Mega Size if you don't just want size?
pg and rg is the most realistic build
mega size is just a gigantic hg

Awesome review! Thanks!
I've built the mega size zaku II and I've gotta say it's worth building definitely sticks out
SHINGEKI NO UNICORN!!!!
We NEED a banshee/norn(preferably with armed armors for both versions) in one kit as well as a fenex and fekensu
I just got this kit, and it is AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!
OH MY GOSH IT'S IT'S *IT'S BIGGER THAN A PERFECT GRADE*
do you think you will review the formina sazabi
Instead of using sticker for eyes, you can actually use the LED for MG kits in the head

I wish they made the side part of the leg seperated instead of 1 big piece so it's an open hatch like the pg.
The shadow cast on your shelf makes it look even more massive.
It's been a month since Magami Device speed build:[...
I totally forgot about that!!!
I hope this does not become like the missing part 2 of the FA Gundam review *sobs*

Hello new subscriber here just wanna ask where do you buy your Gundam kits online?
whoa! water slides. didn't expect that
just rewatched this big boy after seeing the review of the NEW ZEON II
Imagine if they put some led lights in there
Gonna be more awesome 👌
Cant wait for my hobby store to get them in
Beautiful spread
swivel here
The back of the head can fit the official Bandai LED light to light up the eyes.
I am going to get it today as my first build ever, is there any accessories for it?
Led kit for this ?
Hopefully
Mecha Gaikotsu, have you considered entering ZakuAurelius' Unicorn contest?
Nice Gundam model kit ^_^
When will we get our PG Unicorn review?
@Makazuki Tsuki
When he has it done.
xxnike629xx and u are stuck with boxes u 30 year old virgin manchild.
Now let's wait for a Mega sized Psyco Gundam
I just know if I get this kit the full armor or the banshee will come out a week later.....might as well get it out of way now.
HE SHALL TRANSFORM!
I use the same cabineta for my gunpla too😮😮
Yeah...I keep forgetting that this is thing. Looks mostly like an upscaled HG, down to the VFin. But thankfully, it has better hip joints.
Now we need a mega size Neo Zeong
Next should be the Mega size Neo Zeong.
(late) This articulation reminds me of some of the action figures from my childhood.
Wait till mega size Sazabi releases
HG articulation + splits
RG, MG and PG details and Súper Massive scale
Hey do you have a review about your mascot the skull gundam?
The unicorn statue among high grades
even with dem nubmarks, it still is looking pretty dang cool!

If only they would make these pre built I'd be sold
There is but there's only few released and non of them is unicorn

I'm planning to do my first top coat on an he full amor unicorn... do you put top coat on the clear parts
Water Slides should come as standard to any Gunpla kits. It's a standard on military model kits.
ApexPredator_ trust me they're cases it definitely shouldn't
Hey @MechaGaikotsu, i would like to ask, it’s obvious u know that the HGUC Unicorn Gundam had a package with the head base or the base to help posing aerial poses that shaped as the bust of the unicorn model itself, how large is this megasize compare to that huge head base? Thanks a lot! 😁
I think they're both 1/48 scale aren't they? So pretty much the same
This Gundam is a certified *BIC BOI*
I would say swivel here but jobby would beat me into a pulp
