The big feet and head sensor really accentuate the rabbit/watership down motif. Nice. Will you be doing the yellow pinstripe on the shoulders like the original illustrations?
Of course the people in Japan love P-Bandai, they buy it bulk then sell it on eBay for 2-5 times of the original price. It's a huge net profit, even with free worldwide shipping.
I don't get why people who complain about lacking details. it meant to recreate the look from the original lineart. What's wrong with that? If they add a lof of details and some people will complain about it doesn't look like original lineart........yeah
Made my first purchase off USA Gundam Store using the coupon code! Was happy to see they ship to Korea, obviously since you use it. Went ahead and preordered a HG Jiyan Altron. If you get a chance, could you hit me up on any places you purchase Gunpla in Korealand? 감사합니다!
Hey! Usually I order online cause I live in a small city with no good shop to buy locally. The best shops are either BandaiMall (Bandai's official online store) or Hobby Factory. Both have a pretty good point system. Hobby Factory is usually cheaper and you can preorder everything. BandaiMall doesn't take preorders on everything, and the price is a little higher, but their rewards system is better if you're gonna be using it a lot. BandaiMall does take preorders for P-Bandai items though, so if you want to order any of those that's the way to go. You just have to watch the site carefully cause they tend to sell out quick.
ZakuAurelius Yea I figured online would be best. I do know that in Suwon, the AK plaza has a Gundam Base. It isn't too far for me so if I need immediate stuff I could probably hit that place. Thanks for the reply!
that issue about the weight of limbs and/or accessories you pointed out, i noticed that on some of my MG kits. i used to take apart the limb and thicken connection points to joints so they swing, swivel and fall off less than usual. however, since a connection point literally shattered while i was trying poses, i refrained from doing it. how do you get around that? some advice would be good. because i don't think my solution isn't that much good.
Honestly, I wasnt really all that stoke to build this kit (for whatever reason) but once I finished it, I fell in love with it way more than I thought I would. I think the thicc legs, big backpack and the un-gundam head are really what set it over the top. I haven't had any issues with looseness tho except with the shield-booster connections into the backpack, those fall right out
I don't know why people want the shoulder articulation to exceed more than 90 degrees. Hold your arms out to the sides with palms down. Lift them as far as they go. The Hazel goes more than that. It is definitely not a downside.
ZakuAurelius it has parts for the regular booster pod, the manual doesn't tell you how to build it though. What it doesn't have are the v fin and the small crest that goes to the v fin though.
Watching the review, a lot of the parts look like simply scaled up HG parts complete with some of the poor seam lines, loose waste and the shields... Still got it but I have concerns. Not gonna build it till I get my pair of Hrududu.
Ah, Advanced Hazel. My favorite Hazel. I want to buy it but eh, as a P-Bandai I don't really feel that I got a bang for my buck. Anyway, thanks Zach for the review!
This kit definitely must be painted. The dark color of the plastic hides so much of the awsome details its sad. To straight build this and display it would be a waste! So those who don't paint just save your cash and buy another kit.
Most advanced crotch since Zone of the Enders
but can the crotch turn into a Core Fighter?
Now we need MG Haze'n-thley and MG Woundwort.

叶川ヒロ late reply but the original line art had a crap ton of surface detail that would make the nu ver ka blush.

hmmmm i think im just gonna get the hazel custom (but still deciding on either the normal or combat deployment colors) and the hrududu addon later
The shield on backpack different from what we got from HGUC?
The rotating display has seen better days.
the problem was how I had the action base balanced on it to keep the kit in the center of the frame. my bad~
I love you man, keep up the great work, thanks for sharing, cheers
GunPla Fixation thanks Jim! Cheers!
Seconds arm remind me of the O ms
was wondering if your planning on reviewing the PG astray red frame kai coming out soon.
Nope
I preordered mine and still haven't received it😔
Late comment ..I believe the lack of detail shouldnt be an issue as it designs has to flow with mk2 titans 2.0.
I might settle with HG version.

Speaking of AOZ pbandai will you be reviewing the hguc Woundwort?
Jake Theberge I will!
Cool. I pre ordered too. I hope its worth the 40 something ill be paying.
Isn't this supposed to have 2 different shield boosters?
zannus the HGUC does yes
ZakuAurelius disappointed we did not get the enhanced version like they did with the hg.
Another PB option parts set I guess...
Can you review Gundam Delta Kai?
Will you get the MG Avalanche Exia and MG 00 Qan T Full Saber? I know you aren't the biggest 00 fan but I would be interested in you reviewing them
I’m considering it. Leaning towards probably reviewing them
ZakuAurelius that's awesome
I don't know why people want the shoulder articulation to exceed more than 90 degrees. Hold your arms out to the sides with palms down. Lift them as far as they go. The Hazel goes more than that. It is definitely not a downside.
Troy Buttke I think you got something wrong with your shoulders my dude
Does it come with the pieces needed to make the regular feet
David Hollis if its anything like other similar kits, the normal feet can probably just be accessed by taking off the big shoe parts.
Yeah the shoes just fit over the normal feet
So it comes will all the pieces to make a standard hazel with the advance head?
is this same with hazel white version??
This comes with more stuff
Oh my 😍
this pack also can make a normal hazel right i mean if not use the advance part?
yes but it doesn't have the parts for the backpack pod
ZakuAurelius and I hear that it dosent have the regular hazel parts too.
Missing original head v-fins and forehead.
ZakuAurelius it has parts for the regular booster pod, the manual doesn't tell you how to build it though. What it doesn't have are the v fin and the small crest that goes to the v fin though.
Does this kit have the parts to make the regular Hazel head?
Pls review the Woundwort P bandai :)
Zack do you still do the trash to treasure?
Nice review! You seem to be on a sort of P-Bandai binge, so I have to wonder...will you ever do the Astray Turn Red?
no, not getting that one
With your recent influx of pbandai you are getting are you planning on getting the mg gm dominance too?
DankLord Popim I am!
ZakuAurelius good to hear ! Best gm design in mg so far. I didnt even feelbad ordering it despite being pbandai
Dont throw the extra parts away you'll need some for the hrududu combo
Thanks for the review, I was sat on the fence in buying it or not. But this has confirmed I will take a pass. I ordered the Hi Nu Ver Ka instead.
Watching the review, a lot of the parts look like simply scaled up HG parts complete with some of the poor seam lines, loose waste and the shields... Still got it but I have concerns. Not gonna build it till I get my pair of Hrududu.
That second beam saber effect part, you can probably use on the beam rifle so it's like it's shooting something out.
The mg strike freedom full burst I finished the other day was pretty cool
i though the biggest complain among the fans were the beam rifle
It's kinda weak sauce, seems like you at least be able to change clips
The current gundam AOZ Series have some unorthodox or out of the box designs..
NEED MG Woundwort!!
stop giving bandai idea to makes more exclusive release dude.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH I would still buy it even if it's P-bandai alongside with its optional part to make other version of woundwort. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
no enhanced shield booster, kinda disappointing
Hyzenthlay when?
Ah, Advanced Hazel. My favorite Hazel. I want to buy it but eh, as a P-Bandai I don't really feel that I got a bang for my buck. Anyway, thanks Zach for the review!
Is there a discount code that will save you more than 10%?
If you throw leftover parts in the actual trash hmu. I have to fight you.
No! Why would I do that? I have boxes full of leftover parts ✌️
I love the titans colours but the new parts make the proportions ridiculously clunky and ugly
LOL I thought this was a high-grade
Interesting looking mobile suit but poor execution. Looks like a re 1/100 at best
I feel like this kit could've used a hyper bazooka.
it looks like HG
Must be a bitch to take these kits apart to paint them. How do you not tear the kit up disassembling?
Stephen Sutcliffe it’s not that hard! Just do everything in reverse!
Before I can see this video I gotta watch a 3 minute commercial playing on my emotions making it about kids with cancer? Really?
This kit definitely must be painted. The dark color of the plastic hides so much of the awsome details its sad. To straight build this and display it would be a waste! So those who don't paint just save your cash and buy another kit.
Please do more building or quick fix / tips video. Too much review is so bored
