      No Grade varies heavily with some being quite good and are, essentially, HG kits but a bit less detailed than more modern HG kits. Mainly the Wing, Seed, and G-Gundam ones that I've recently built are decent, but need a bit more work with some markers and you might need to add some thin glue to what you need to build some as some of them have had stickers age poorly that they no longer stick.
      I've got the 1/144 Serpent and Epyon and they're about the same as the ancient HG such as Guntank, Gogg, and GM though with a bit more polycap parts because they seem to have used that for the hands as well

    Good to see another G-Academy video. Very informative. Honestly Bandai could do something similar to what Kotobukiya does for the Liger Zero's CAS for IBO. G-Reco is way more neglected than IBO and it hurts as a G-Reco fan. The HGs for G-Reco are barely ever reprinted and has no 1/100 scale kits where at least IBO fans have multiple 1/100 scale kits.

    Also might I add one more thing. I’m so thankful Justin is a IBO fan because I’m loving the show (I was into Gundams as a child and the older I got I didn’t get back into Gundam until like a month ago at the time of this message) Bandai definitely gotta gives more than just Barbatos. IBO offers waaaay to many Gundams to just skip over, however I do truly think and believe they’re planning on coming out with them they just trynna gear up for the release and all the hype. I’m sure the fan base will explode with excitement and ready to open their wallets

    As a RG fan, I would say kits before Tallgeese can be really bad, like the Strike Freedom, a beautiful grenade, avoid at all cost unless you really like Strike Freedom, but not all of them are trash.
    For example 00 quant is a great kits, nice looking with only a few noticeable issues.
    Or MK2 gundam, an awesome old kits that is the theoretically perfect RG.
    Also the unicorns, the turning points of rg, although still have some problems, but with mind blowing design.
    I heard the gp01 is also great, I don’t have that one so I won’t say much about it.
    But anything after Tallgeese, in my opinion, can’t be bad.

    I don’t understand the sizing. So many tiny 1/144 grades. If I was to gauge the scales it would be like this.
    1/144: XS Grades: EG, RG, HG
    1/100: Small Grades: MG, MGEX, FM, RE100, Metal Build(figure)
    1/60: Medium Grades: PG/U
    1/48: Large Grades: Mega, Metal Structure(figure)
    1/40: XL Grades: -
    Personally, I don’t like anything smaller than 1/60 scale so Bandai is losing me as a customer. Maybe the small scales is an Eastern thing?
