As a person with gorilla hands, this was a PROJECT. Managed to get it done, painted, and posed... for all eternity. Solid hand grenade/10
Imagine finishing the build and suddenly ATF and FBI raided your room.
You're practically building an IED.
@First-Name_Last-Name that's why you use glue of this one.
How a gunpla fan know a friend hates him with a gift
1. It's fxcking 4 AM
2. About to close youtube
3. Spot Kakarot197 video
4. It is RG Zeta review
me: What is 15 more minutes
I love how the entire kit quivers when you picked it up for articulation.
Audience- did you do it
Kakarot- yes.
Audience- what did it cost??
Kakarot- my sanity
Rg zeta, just keep it one mode you'll be okay. But never pose it a lot or the joint will loosen up. Don't touch it, ever.
(looks lightly in its direction and it collapses) god damit.
@@xgod4562 yup. Every dang time
@@hijous (picks back up only for it to violently explode in face)
The legs are heavy and the joints that connect the legs to the hips are weak. Over time, they will stress under it's own weight and break of by itself (my own experience). Also the the shoulder joints where you do the transformation is fragile.
God and I thought the HG Zeta was touchy
This reminds me of an old 4-koma meme of Kamille trying to transform what looks like a PG Zeta, because each attempt looks like a different MS almost entirely.
Link?
@@apocalypticsurvivor6111 danbooru
this needs a re-review after 1 year in storage to see how well it holds up. Seeing the lineup made me wish there was a RG Hyaku Shiki in the future.
It has been a year after building mine and it is atill in the same pose I left it in
But what if it reuses Mk-II frame
@@stormgalaxypegasusHonestly, that would be completely fine. The Gundam MkII’s inner frame is stupid solid for an early RG frame. If you need evidence of that, just note that Mecha Gaikotsu ranked it as his number two favorite Real Grade in his Top 5 Favorite and Least Favorite RGs, and he fucking HATES early Real Grades. He’s had his for years, he poses it all the time, and it’s still held up-and keep in mind that he manhandles his kits.
I don't think anyone can deny how beautiful this kit looks. RG's are almost always about aesthetics and this one definitely looks phenomenal. Yet...wow looking at it, I can feel how intricate and delicate it's gotta be...
Nearly every RG looks great but to actually move it around or pose it.
Some just fall apart i.e sinanju, Zeta, Zaku 2, GP01 etc etc
@@steel749 Recent RG releases like Nu, Sazabi, Zeong, Impulse, etc. would beg to differ, though. They mostly ditch the use of advanced MS Joints for the frames and finally use buildable inner frames similar to MGs. Hence, they've become more solid than ever and of course, the details provided is still the selling point of this line.
@@laudzafajrul1043 that's why I said some.
I know the tallgeese 1, 2 & 3, force impulse, Nu gundam, Nu gundam HWS & sword impulse etc are solid as a rock.
I'm talking about the ones I mentioned especially the older ones
there are a few pretty good older ones (both versions of the Mk II are probably the most solid early RGs), but yeah, the line didn't stop being 90% hand grenades (at least with new molds) up until the Unicorn (iirc)
@@steel749 It has been 4 month since I built the GP01 and honestly I don't see any of the complaints that others have. I think the core fighter not being secure only stems from others not putting it in properly, I say that because I can confidently hold the gundam on it's chest and shake it and it doesn't seperate into two parts and another is i like to pose my gunpla alot and still it hasn't lossent yet. Though the only problem that I have is the advance ms joint that you use to attach the shield to the arm doesn't work because the hole for the peg is not a circle rather it is a octagon.
Perfect kit for people that like high level explosives.
So this is basically a Michael Bay zeta
@@Gingy_2006 or an actual Wave Rider "CRASH" OH COME ON I JUST FRESH BUILD IT!!!
An Army Seargeant screams down
The other : grenade
The Seargeant :No RG Zeta
The Other: Holy Jesus
@@kevinbaumhoer7359 10 seconds later, the enemy died from sharp plastic on their faces
@@christiandaniel3714 yes
I seriously love how Kakarot always flips the Zeta's wings out in MS mode, like in its final battle against The O. It's my favorite look for it.
Good show!
A kitbash with the HG Zeta would be interesting. It’s been done before but there haven’t really been any in-depth tutorials online.
i recently realized you love using thick black panelining.
Thiccc~
I really really wish they'd redo Zeta RG, with all the new tech they've learned since then with later RG models.
Id rather anything else than a 2.0
Mg ver. Ka zeta was announced. Probably rg zeta 2.0 is possible. Hopium from me. 🙏
Just do a ZZ lol
@@hijous hopefully not
We might just get a Zeta 2.0 in the future after seeing the reveal of the Rx-78-2 2.0
14:01 I'm laughing so hard when Encounter playing as bgm, well played.
Thank you for the review. I learned that rg is not for beginners the hard way when assembling rg Sazabi. It's more of the time and effort needed to spent for the assembly, but it's worth the effort.
One of this day I'll get this kit. It is sold quite cheap too last I checked...
I had transfarable skills from building legos for many years so rg kits are not hard for me to build as a second kit after building the hg moon gundam
An RG will take a good 6-8 hours to assemble for a beginner. Just take it slow and be careful, it's not too difficult. Maybe start with a simpler one like the Force Impulse.
@@Fireclaws10 my first RG was the Crossbone Gundam. That took me 6 hours. Then I built the RG Unicorn Gundam which took me 8 hours. It's pretty eerie how spot on you are with the time estimates
I'm ashamed to admit I took almost a _year_ to finish my Sazabi orz. Life happens and sort of......
See, when I heard the music... It makes want to dust off my PS2 to play Encounters in Space. It cannot be helped.
I just downloaded Asu e no Kizuna (sponsor theme) because of your channel lol. And yes, I did play Valkyria Chronicles a few years ago, but never watched the anime.
I love how the way you said "overengineered." I think a lot builders just taking zeta as a joke. But of course it is overengineered to the aspect that some of the parts are under engineered. This is what i find with sinanju, destiny, and strike freedom rg. To think that i keep collecting rg, i think i am a man of a challenge 😎
Kakarot197 : "The Real Grade line is something that beginner should stay away from to begin with"
Me : My first gunpla ever is RG RX-78-2 (no joke, this is true)
Same. Followed by the rg zeta lol
Mine was the rg 00 then straight to the rg strike freedom.
Mine was an RG Sinanju, it was fun to build, but getting the kit to do poses is a different story...
@@Yozora_15 My first was a Gundam Virsago Chest Break an Electronics Boutique randomly had. I could have gone for the X Divider, but a little kid wanted that one. Man that was back when Wing first aired on CN!
My second kit was the Wing Zero [EW], great kit despite having ERGS
I got it as a gift from a relative who didn't have time to build gunpla anymore. It was my first RG, and the first gunpla I had built after a long hiatus. It may be a bit of a meme online, but it's what got me back into gunpla and the Zeta/Delta lines of MS, and for that I will be forever grateful to it.
Essentially treat this like an actual model kit and not like a toy
It's the Zeta that can transform. It's impossible.
Yeah, gunpla has reached action figure level of solidity, but this is like the anti-rg sazabi.Still looks cool though
@@genovese667 Speaking of action figure, the die cast in the metal robot ver. Ka may help with the stability and would make the transformation less of a headache and heartache.
@@wulf8889 I don't think the metal rs zeta will have any problem (outside of the price), but if recent rgs are anything to go by, I think Bandai is perfectly capable of a sturdy, beautiful and great rg zeta 2.0.
I'll see many of this kind of people that despely try to find the excuse for the looseness of early RG (which totally bullshit) what even a point to buy if can't post it and can't make it stay in place with out the superglue
Nice way to wind down after work, thank you sir!
Agreed bro that’s why mine is still half built the leg connectors broke T-T. But I agree the details and etc are nice
Great job putting this thing together, and having built it myself I completely agree with all your observations, especially the "dismantling a time bomb" thing hahaha
The wings on mine hold well, its instrumental you connect the whole back part correctly and as tightly as possible and they will even stay connected while transforming
I was holding my breath subconsciously during the transformation sequence!
I got this kit on a whim, I had heard people describe it as a difficult kit but I just assumed it was the internet exagerating as it tends to do. nah this thing is definitely a challenge. It looks amazing when you've got it in a pose you like but once I had every finishing touch done I just put it on my shelf and havent touched it since.
So the rg Zeta was a holy grail kit for me and like I said before I built it put the stickers on, posed it and now display it with the hguc version (Hguc version in waverider mode). It's a model not a toy and I am super happy to have it on my shelf.
Amazing how you rekindle my interest in this kit. Maybe I will put it back in my bucketlist after all.
its here! the moment we are all been waiting for Kakarot197's RG ZETA REVIEW!!!
I can feel just by seeing how delicate kakarot tries to move the thing on the articulation XD
I like the newer high grade more, but I prefer the simplicity, honestly. I can respect this RG's majesty, but in the same way I can admire a butterfly. Beautiful, but fragile.
this looks amazing, by far the best looking zeta. however, it does feel like it can only do very basic poses.
also, it looks like one of those "build perfectly, or dont build at all", kits. i can see this falling appart sooner or later.
Wowie, an rg delta gundam! Colors are a bit off though, but I’m glad they managed to recreate the flimsy moveable frame
Zeta is my favorite mobile suit ever, i think i own every single zeta based kit. But the one i do always recommend is the MG Zeta 2.0ver.... Old but Gold. Really fun kit, not that easy, not that challenging.
I'd love to get a 3.0 anytime soon.
I talked about this on the other day but I gonna say again, I built 4 RG zeta's and nothing happen except the my 1st zeta because I transform it several times and it's getting a bit loose. The other's are totally fine, just handle with care and you're good.
People might ask, why 4? Because Zeta is my all time favorite gundam. I wish I have enough money for the up coming Ka signature Zeta.....
Yeah it’s really not as bad as people make it out to be, nothing usually breaks and the transformation works, but the stress and feeling that it’s about to implode are enough to make most afraid to continue touching it. At least that’s what I experienced with mine.
Mine looked really good until it fell off the shelf, the head however lives on on my HG Zeta.
Which boss would the RG Zeta be in dark souls? The bed of chaos?
I would love a 2.0 RG Zeta Gundam.
I am still convinced that the moment you sneeze in its general direction, it may fall apart....
So far I've built two RG Zetas (Regular and ZIII) and from what I remember the first time building it was super frustrating. Probably spent half an hour trying to push the head through the torso. Building it the second time went a lot more smooth. Also, i noticed the second build's hip joints were a lot more loose compared to the first. I guess sometimes it's a hit or miss with these kits.
Boy did I have an anxiety attack when you're transforming that thing. It looks like some parts are about to pop off at the mere touch.
Thanks for the review. I've got the RG Zeta 3A ver GFT. I think I'll keep this at the bottom of my backlog. Still have at least 4 other RGs to get through.
I'd actually been thinking about this recently since I decided I wanted to have the Gundam Team from ZZ all up on my shelf (who do I have to convince over at bandai to put out a HG Mega Rider BTW) and all the stuff I'd heard steered me reluctantly toward the new HG (Most of this revolved around whether there was a version of the High Grade that didn't have big red stickers on the wingtips of the flying armor.) I still like the way the RG looks, though. Still got the RG MK II tho.
Hey, I bought this one. I was having a ton of fun putting the legs together and marveling at all the details and whatnot. And then I got to the torso... And since then it's been sitting real pretty inside of the box!
The MKII looks at RG Zeta like "dood, I thought you were suppose to be the sturdy one."
They should make a RG Gaza using frame inspiration from the Zeta Gundam, it would essentially be the same thing, except the Gaza is supposed to explode.
10:46 someone calls the ministry of silly walks, we have the winner!
Even to this day it feels like they made the kit with the wave rider form in mind first and the mobile suit form as a byproduct
Tiny, fragile parts of a level so bad the veterans dislike it sometimes, and here I am with these bear claws for fingers. Yikes.
Awesome video! I won't be buying this, but it was good to see you give a fair and balanced review of the kit, though I was expecting you to play Riders in the Sky during the transformation sequence lol
This was my first RG, it was a nightmare for me.
Chest section wouldnt snap together at all and i was handling it delicately, it broke on me. It took me longer to build this than the MG Zeta 2.0. Every time i tried to move the legs or arms they felt like they were going to snap in half.
This kit is a good candidate for a 2.0 with modern rg engineering. I know they can pull it off.
For the sake of your time and your mental health, just buy the HGUC Zeta Gundam Revive for the love of God
2:03 whoa whoa man chill. Here, take some bottle of that orange flask
I've always wondered what my purpose in life is. I have the smol, steady hands of a surgeon, but neither the patience, drive, or brain wiring necessary for the medical field. Turns out my purpose is to put together & customize the RG line of gunpla.
Can you do the development of the z gundam and ZZ please
A very professional review. Good job. Highly appreciated.
i got this kit w/o looking at reviews bfirst and actually got mad building it
The RG Zeta was one of my first kits into the hobby! Yes, it's flimsy feeling but it's def a pose and display kit. Literally don't touch it after you have it on a stand and it'll be great. I honestly don't know anyone who articulates their kits enough to wear parts down lol.
ive got a zaku origin model that I frequently change the pose of. but most of my kits stay in one pose for most of their lives.
It looks beautiful, but moving it does raise issues. When I do upgrade me Zeta, I don't think it'll be this one. Still nice to finally see exactly what the head and torso do during the transformation. Eh, decided to take care of the GM shaped hole in my collection for now with a GM Cold Climate, Zeta I think I need to think about for a while.
I agree that the RG line is a model kit. I don't complain too much about the movements and falling off pieces. The Robot Spirits line on the other hand are action figures.
Still a shame that the Real Grade Zaku head doesnt fit onto the Zeta Gundam to have its iconic final form Zeta Zaku
My first gunpla. The only I will ever buy. I love it. No need any other. Zeta is the best not even lying.
I don't have the guts to watch you moving the leg around xD
I love the RG zeta, awesome engineering and detail. Just dont play around with it, stick with 1 mode and pose and stay with it for eternity or you will regret it. If you want a zeta kit to play around with, pick the new hguc zeta, it can handle much pose and transform
this review came at the right time because I've been planning to buy this gunpla this week because my local gunpla store is having massive sales on selected RG and HG series...im talking like 75% percent discount .
Meyrin:so, about that appointment, I think we'll have to postpone that
I don't know how but i managed to build It when i was like 11 and this thing is not broken even now💀
It also has a neck joint and a torso rotation but the latter tends to split and deform permanently the joint
this was my very first kit almost 5 years ago now, I transformed it over 10 times and im surprised it still held up decently. I ended up throwing it away because it was just poorly built compared to my current standards however lol.
This brings back those warm and fuzzy memories of my first RG Zeta transformation and posing...
Never to be so again.
Looks more solid than I've seen elsewhere. Looks great, like all RG's.
Has anyone had experiences with this falling apart like the RG 01 does? I know not everyone's experience is the same, but miy 01 has a lot of issues with loose connections between parts, and I don't mean I screwed up putting it together, I mean the tolerances are worse than what's normal for RG and Gunpla in general.
If a model requires you to be extremely delicate with it, such as not turning it at a "bad angle" or moving a part and something falls off or goes flying, then that's a hand grenade and a bad experience. Models are not action figures, but we have comparable standards and the old RG's are significantly worse than most kits in that regard. It's okay to say. I still love mine very much, and as much as I might complain about the RG RX-78-2, it's a STUNNING model and so is this one.
Glue
One of the first kits I ever tried to build. Snapped the waist joint like a twig trying to put it together.
I'd like to take another crack at it
I dont think you had the head/neck part fully extended during the 1st part. The yellow collar should be seen
The blue camera plastic piece is for anime accuracy
Apparently,the zeta Gundam used blue sensors instead of green like most Gundam or red for the original RX 78
I think this kit emphasizes my main problem with the Zeta in general. I do adore the aesthetics of the suit, but there is no way in HELL this thing would be a viable military weapon even as a prototype. There are far too many moving parts, each of which has to move just so in order to work, and any damage at all could very well throw the entire thing completely out of whack and then you have a weapon that just doesn’t function-kind of a problem when you’re in a WAR ZONE with lots of debris and projectiles flying every which way. And what are the advantages? Well, nothing really that you don’t already get from a simple Gundam Sandwich transformation. This is why I attribute the Zeta’s success more to Kamille himself and the Zeta’s variety of weapons, and not to the transformation itself. But I guess militaries do learn the wrong lessons in real life as well, so of course the Federation would try to implement transformations into mass production attempts because obviously that must be why the Zeta was good.
Its fragility is probably the reason why we haven't gotten a ZZ Gundam RG.
This was among my first kits that I got from hlj and the build was good but afterwards shit hit the fan. But for a beginner like myself I somehow had no issue with the actual build.
RG zeta was my first ever introduction to the RG line and let's just say, zeta is now in it box and forever will be.

Also, i lost a small peice when i tried to transform it.
FOREVER IN THE BOX!!!
this was my first RG, i honestly dont remember struggling too much with building it but that inner frame is nasty as hell and i started playing with it recently and the legs are loose as shit now. the yellow chest vents fall off all the time but its not so bad other wise if you like a detailed kit that just stands in 1 pose
The building process is not the problem. The finish kit though, that's the problem come especially the joint and other part pop off
My first RG too. Same exact problems, especially the yellow chest vents. I refuse to transform it so it holds alright otherwise
If I was gonna sell this and the RG Sinanju, I will put a handle it with care when built sticker on it
There's a lot of fiddly parts that would have worked better as POM pieces rather than ABS, it's so much more wear resistant.
Thought on a series you could do. You could do an in-depth timeline of each Gundam series and how they connect and like throughout the ages. A lot of work but a lot of views
Looks great out of box but yes, i agree, more of like a ticking time bomb. I like the new hguc one better. The problem with that though, are those SHOULDER JOINTS. It feels like it'll snap everytime you move it. Especially that initial movement.
cant help but to feel the outro was filmed ahead of transformation
This was my second kit, it was also the first kit I threw in the trash immediately after conpletion
2:07
heh my first kit was the rq quanta and i had no problem with it. my second kit was a friken master grade! the experiance was very interesting lol
my brother got me this.......this was my first REAL GRADE. It was insane!
A lot of the warning decals don't appear in the anime, because it would be far too time-consuming to do so. So if you leave them off, it doesn't really detract from the look of the kit.
They don't appear in the anime very often, but they do appear in the OVAs, 0083 stardust memory being a good example of this.
Rg sinanju next or rg freedom and justice combo video(ornstein and smough)
My first kit was the RG Nu, holy hell then i discovered HG and I was like I dun fucked up
Tip to all RG Zeta builders: If you didn't destroy your build due to sheer rage, super glue your pose and don't touch it.
Literally getting mine today no way
As the crazy man who built the kotobukiya Liger Zero and Leena Special Gunsniper...I think I might be able to do this one. I kinda want it cause I'm underwhelmed by my HG Zeta
This was my first RG kit, didn’t know what I was getting into 😅
The Zeta is my favorite gundam period, and I would never display it in wave rider mode and just wish they'd do a kit that doesn't transform to make a better MS mode
1.0 MG Zeta Gundam...ahhhh, that was my first MG...no wonder why I've avoided them so much.
It was mine too, but I loved it because my only frame of reference at the time were the 1/144 and 1/100 Wing kits :p
When I first started getting into Gundam, I made the mistake of buying the MG Zeta 1.0 since the zeta design is pretty awesome. It's the first and only model kit I've ever thrown away since it was such a nightmare of a kit
What a Mad Lad. Reviewed it without wearing a bomb defusal suit.
i baught this before buying my first gundam and that is the rg zeta and it didnt take too long seeing i only used nail clippers and a small flat head screwdriver
this is my first one ever, i had no idea LMFAo
