Just picked this up today. I’m pretty new to gunpla and am still panel lining with markers. I haven’t started it yet but I may just move on to a pour type for this one. I made it through the other gundam from the show just fine but this one looks like it has way too many details. Really dig these kits. I’ve so far really preferred the RG line and the Gundam EX was like a neat middle ground between HG and RG. Looking forward to getting these two together on the shelf.
I honestly used a pore type Gundam panel line marker on this kit then used a Paper towel with Isopropyl Alcohol and just rubbed it over the parts worked out great !
I think the Zaku looks a bit shorter tbh ,but the legs do have a drop down feature and i think if you maybe extended them down it might look a bit better IDK !
This thing is hideous, but I'm glad some people really love it. Did you panel line and wash it? If so, it looks extremely clean, like it was a part of the kit itself
Yes i did panel line it and i just did a bit of a smear technique with the panel liner for weathering ,its a cool kit and i like it but don't at the same time maybe when i get the other 3 Zaku and do the diorama i have in mind i will like the design a bit more lol
nice well I hope you liked a early look at them ,I honestly don't like the gundams face as much as i like the rest of the kit but the zaku is cool I just expected it to be a bit taller I think ,but both are solid kits for sure !
Yeah I think a deeper brown maybe and some green might look a bit better ,I honestly do not think the color of the plastic matches the art work as much as it could have !
No not all are the same there is no poly caps at all in this kit but it builds kind of like the origin Zaku does just with a few changes so no poly caps are used ,it builds up fast !

Solari looks great next to EX. Thanks for one of the first looks on YT.
Thanks for watching and checking out my review 1st look video !
Proportions look way off. Which is weird because they absolutely nailed the proportion AND the details with the EX.

Is regular kit right ? Not p.bandai 😮
Yes this kit is regular retail ,there will be a P Bandai version that has the other 3 Zaku in it coming soon !
Interesting kit. It has some cool design elements but the color is a bit meh : /

Are the joints the same as the HG Origin Zakus kits?
No not all are the same there is no poly caps at all in this kit but it builds kind of like the origin Zaku does just with a few changes so no poly caps are used ,it builds up fast !
Real
100% real !
