I have to say, this kit really impressed me when I took the runners out of the box and saw that only one was re-used. It's practically a brand new kit.
I practically did get Wing Zero Honoo because of your reviews... Followed through your ideas regarding each model kits you reviewed including Transient, Portent, Try Burning, Wing Fenice Rinascita, Amazing Exia, And all others... I like how your reviews are brief yet very informative... Keep up the good work TypeV3
Your painting skills are getting really good! I love what you did with the white parts. It looks like weathering, but thicker which creates a wonderful blend between the gold and white.
This video has helped me create a gundam model based on the honoo and the wing zero custom combined. And now it's going to help me create another modelthat involves the honoo once more and I want to thank you.
Your gunpla reviews are the best! You helped me decide on the try burning gundam and now I want this one too haha. You've also inspired me to try more than just panel lining. Thanks and keep it up!
One thing with this is that the shield actually seems to be a working prototype of the Wing's shield with the saber stored there. It's also got a massive improvement over the HG Wing Zero's transformation by not requiring a replacement of the feet for it. As a side note, the Wing Finiche seems more based on the Wing than the Zero
I really love this kit. It's one of my favorite Build series kits, and in my opinion, a direct improvement over the HG Wing Zero. The addition of buster rifle storage, a shield that can store a beam saber, and folding feet for a transformation with zero parts swapping, make it feel technically superior. Bird Mode still feels like a Gundam laying down with a shield on its back, but that's due to the Wing Zero's lazy transformation more than anything.
Maybe what you could do to help with the Neo Bird Model's silhouette is manipulate the boosters so that they're on level with the shield. It does push the shoulders down to a diagonal angle but it severely helps the silhouette. I don't find many who do this with this or the HGAC
The reason those sprung was because (sorry for the language) transforming robots were the shit back then and there are ones that look great to like the aegis gundam (although it is a pain to transform the mg) but that is just my opinion. Also can you do mg reviews since the only detailing you need to the is lining it and applying some but not all the decals it came with
I hope in the new build fighters series we get to see this bad boy in action straight out of the box I wouldn't change a thing expect for maybe panel lining it. And as someone who is just getting started I think this will be my first kit for it's flare.
It seems like Bandai starts out with the 1/144 HG scale models first then they build the 1/100 scale which is what i love more. Bigger models are more fun when it comes to building, and display.
They can't do that because Honoo could be the next season for build fighters. The team consist of Wing Zero Honoo, Destiny Honoo and Zeta Honoo. Just in case you don't there's a photo novel called Build fighters Honoo.
@@watermelonpizza7824I know this is a six year old comment and it's unlikely for anybody to even read this, I have to chime in as the residential guru on the Build series. The Gunpla you mentioned are all models made by the same character, Yusei Kouen, in the photonovel spinoff Build Fighters Honoo. There is also a sequel, Build Fighters Honoo Try, which features Yusei as the advisor of a three-person Gunpla team. The models used, if memory serves, were the Freedom Gundam Flame Feder, Justice Gundam Dash, and Flag Flare.
This was my first Gunpla ever, given to me by a friend. While I wasn't excited for it at first, I quickly grew to like it's fiery aesthetics. As you said, posing it was quite the problem, but I was able to use the stand it came with to get some pretty nice poses. My only regret now is not getting the extra wing attachments, however only a few were ever given out. I may try kit bashing it with 00 Quanta, if that's even possible. Wish me luck!
Jeremy Huston Ye. I'm sure it's part of the design of the suits in Wing, but I am not sure how to exactly describe it. Honoo has lots of curved pieces layered over it, like how Epyon and Wing Zero have nearly identical shoulder armor. That's the best description I can give.
I got my wing zero honoo after seeing this video and put it together yesterday and I gotta say as my first wing era mobile suit the honoo is a very stylish Gundam and the arms can in fact utilize a fair amount of the double joints and I'm genuinely curious how some parts of this Gundam would look on other hgs ^^
I'm gonna have to see if my hobbystore of choice can get this in for me.... You know I never used to really care for the 1/144 scale, I always wanted the 1/100 HG Kits - I could never really afford MG or PG >>; - but lately something about the 1/144 scale just seems more appealing.......
The shield is RIDICULOUSLY hard to put on. As cool as it looks I may just end up posing it without the shield and keep the beam saber on, since it contrasts the red and white so well. >I literally just finished the snap build just now. Planning to paint it some other time.
***** I believe the one in the optional parts is a full head, and it's meant to be painted silver. One of the first pictures of this guy has him with a V-fin that's identical to this one, but in yellow.
Right when u take out the parts from the box in the square thingy there are parts when u take it out do you use scissors or your hands which is better cuz there might be some white things or scratches?
I went to the GUNPLA shop in odaibi Tokyo the one with the giant 1/1 gundam and I bought this gundam along with a bunch of other build fighters cuz that's my fav series, I also bought MG exit cuz he's awesome
i would customize the Wing Zero with Honoo bc of it lack transformation and weapon storage like the feet, on the MG the feet fold the same way as this one but the Wing Zero feet go inside his leg. i would also customize his Shoulders to hold his beam sabers sense it suppose to have them there in the first place but have to shorten the beam sabers to fit in the shoulders
this was my first and most favorite gundam. However, the colors seemed a bit bland at first and after using gold silver and some brass coloring, it looks amazing!
Yes. He has reviewed it as well. Though you may have found it already in the span of 3 months, i'd just like to help. ua-cam.com/video/WHL3OxiUTEk/v-deo.html
how you stick the shield? mine would take the entire arm off thus i can't display my favorite Strike Freedom's all enemy shooting pose T-T damn short arm
and the beam saber won't stay on the shield either nor can its hilt keep the beam on for a long time. Anyone know any gundam that are winged,poseable and comes with a lot of weapon? including this one, i already have freedom,impulse ,astray blue frame and(by accident)age 2 Dark Hound
um does a bazooka . a gun. two beam sabers .two fin funnels and two solid swords counts as lots of weapons? if it does ,I recommend you to buy the hi nu vrabe Gundam
Awesome review! This is on my MUST BUY list along with the RG Wing Zero Custom and the upcoming RG Wing EW ver......once I can properly afford them and have time to buy them. Also...any way to JUST get the Honoo's feet pieces for use with the HGAC Wing Zero?
***** now I decided to get the mg build strike full package but do you think its worth it to get the mg universal booster to transform it into the star build strike, or just get the hg ver. without the power gates?
On your review on the Kampfer amazing, you mentioned something anout tightening the waist joint to prevent the cannons from bring down the model. What did you mean by "tightening" and can this be used on other joints like ball joints?
Type ! Thanks for the vid man :D Also really nice painting there ! Did you think about adding silver paint behind the clear parts? Wouldn't that make it pop more?
Sir Saber Thought about it, but there's detail underneath that I liked seeing (the knees and wings). Then with the shoulders/head I didn't like the idea of the backsides being completely silver - they don't lay flat on any surface so it would look odd from some angles.
I have to say, this kit really impressed me when I took the runners out of the box and saw that only one was re-used. It's practically a brand new kit.
2ndSndWve Yeah I had the same reaction!

Great video very simple, and easy to enjoy with those camera transitions and angles with dynamic poses. Looking forward for more Gunpla reviews. :D

reyonXIII I appriciate the advice but honestly, I've always been of the belief that Gundams with "transforming flight modes" are incredibly stupid.

Damn...that lining and weathering is awesome.
The Honoo Wings can be added onto the back of the Build/Try Burning Gundam, and it looks fantastic, I've just got one today and I know it
It seems like Bandai starts out with the 1/144 HG scale models first then they build the 1/100 scale which is what i love more. Bigger models are more fun when it comes to building, and display.
If you feel like the kit lacks a little color some silver and bronze can really make it pop
Great review, love the way you foreshadow what kit you'll review next at the end of the video
in battlogue they should have the pilot of this against Fellini
WING WARS!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Fenice means Phoenix in Italian and Honoo is a type of Japanese firebird......seriously this fight was meant to be
They can't do that because Honoo could be the next season for build fighters. The team consist of Wing Zero Honoo, Destiny Honoo and Zeta Honoo. Just in case you don't there's a photo novel called Build fighters Honoo.

I'm new to the gunpla scene which would be better for a first model kit the lupus or the lupus rex
This month of this year is the Real Grade 00! It's like the Master Grade 00 with Riser! It's going to be awesome!😄
I'm gonna have to see if my hobbystore of choice can get this in for me....

one of the best paint job you did!
type V3 what tools do you use in gunpla building....I'm a begginer.
6:30 was a sick pose. Thinking of picking this up and throwing in some different shades of red

man i am asking this for christmas i mean wings that turn in swords awesome stuff yo

>I literally just finished the snap build just now. Planning to paint it some other time.
Darkgodaphex lol, yep the shield isn't that great.
how come we don't get the hg wing zero custom yet?
I love the design of this Kit. Need to have this.
dang dude, you paint them so well that it makes me wanna award you with a medal
Love this one.. Definitely my next 1/144. For custom reasons.
if i remembered correctly, there's an add on set for this right?
I wonder how Heero's reaction seeing a customized version of his Wing Zero?
I have this exact figure, but the legs are pretty loose. Any ideas on the origin of that?
Hey,what's the series name of this build fighters?i already watch both build fighters and build fighters TRY which is better than build fighters.
What paints have you used to achive this burned look?
V3 I actually got this last week and love it! But one problem it's the slide on arms it can break so easy but LOVE IT
Some promotional arts for this kit potrays it with a yellow V-fin. Is that part available in the kit itself?
Adrian I think that comes with the optional parts - which are included with a Hobby Japan Magazine.
***** I believe the one in the optional parts is a full head, and it's meant to be painted silver.
One of the first pictures of this guy has him with a V-fin that's identical to this one, but in yellow.
I have the kit. No parts for the yellow V-fin. But the red one looks really great!
Right when u take out the parts from the box in the square thingy there are parts when u take it out do you use scissors or your hands which is better cuz there might be some white things or scratches?
+Flash Playz side cutters.
a beginner in building gunpla i see?
Ye lol
its quite easy when you get used to it
you can also find other model kits such as scale model tanks
Awesome review as always! Mine is still on the way, can't wait for it to arrive!! :D
I went to the GUNPLA shop in odaibi Tokyo the one with the giant 1/1 gundam and I bought this gundam along with a bunch of other build fighters cuz that's my fav series, I also bought MG exit cuz he's awesome
what do you recomend for someone thats just starting gunpla collection
I have a problem can you help me?
my honoo's arms is very loose when I move it up and down and side to side
MrKangmaster20 Thicken the connections (Ball joints) with clear nail polish. Use light coats and apply more if necessary!
***** tks, dude
I would love a mg of this to go along with my mg fenice rinascita!
+bonehead156 same here
What did you use to paint those stained edges?
airbrushing pal
How do i use gundam markers? I bot three black green and red tUEACH mueh
There’s a bit of Wing Zero EW thrown into the design. Look at the torso and legs. 👍🏻👍🏻
I question why you didnt show the full bend of the elbow
Have you built the 00 or 00 Quan(t)? Both are good kits, and are some of the most articulate HGs I've built.
i would customize the Wing Zero with Honoo bc of it lack transformation and weapon storage like the feet, on the MG the feet fold the same way as this one but the Wing Zero feet go inside his leg. i would also customize his Shoulders to hold his beam sabers sense it suppose to have them there in the first place but have to shorten the beam sabers to fit in the shoulders
how did get the effects on those red pieces? they looked awesome.
I am obsessed with fundamental and gunpla
this was my first and most favorite gundam. However, the colors seemed a bit bland at first and after using gold silver and some brass coloring, it looks amazing!
which version did you like more the Fenice Rinascita or zero honoo?
You do realize that you can go all the way put as a sideways kick, move the hip skirts up and back all the way
That hint at the ending though.. Transient.. Transient.. Transient..
+TYPE V3 why dont you upgrade these honoo with his custom kit....it pretty good you know
Hi, how did you do the painting?
Wasn't there a special sword that cane with the honoo?
Believe it or not, i believe its a separate kit called tge wing zero honoo sword
oh i was on hobby link Japan and at the bottom it said it came with a magazine dose that mean you could only get the kit with it?
Very good review , what paint you used for twin buster riffle ?
Are you going to do a review on transient gundam?
Should I get the try burning or the wing Gundam zero honoo
Gunnar Applegate The one that you think looks cooler.
Gunnar Applegate Why not both? :p
QUESTION!!!!!!
DOES WING FENICE RENISCITA HAVE HG??
PLEASE ANSWER ME
THANKS
Yes. He has reviewed it as well.
Though you may have found it already in the span of 3 months, i'd just like to help.

You did a great job on the weathering!!
The white armor parts on the kit looks like they have been taking a lot of heat damage B-)
i lost it's beam saber,also how to paint those weathering places? do u use paint or weathering effect?
which is better, this or the Transient? i'm looking forward to buy one.
both
What is Part B no. 4 for?
how to you paint the white parts?
Which eps this gundam? Im not remember
What color did you use to paint the red?
I'm assuming base kit doesn't have this red color on body and wings and crown
What are you talking about?
Gundam kits come in colour so no painting unless you want to
It's not just white, you know. This isn't one of those plane model kits where you paint everything.
how you stick the shield? mine would take the entire arm off thus i can't display my favorite Strike Freedom's all enemy shooting pose T-T damn short arm
and the beam saber won't stay on the shield either nor can its hilt keep the beam on for a long time.
Anyone know any gundam that are winged,poseable and comes with a lot of weapon? including this one, i already have freedom,impulse ,astray blue frame and(by accident)age 2 Dark Hound
um does a bazooka . a gun. two beam sabers .two fin funnels and two solid swords counts as lots of weapons? if it does ,I recommend you to buy the hi nu vrabe Gundam
it's winged too and posable but only has an extra trigger right hand and two already equipped gripping hands
+Stephen Tay yeah this one will do,thanks.
I think the Zeta Gundam has the best Flight Mode transformation. It's less obvious than the Wing and Kyrios.
I like the design of the honoo I wish it was a real grade so I could display it
on the iron man review do you have something like the HULK BUSTER
How did that gundam was made was that Wing Zero was going to light the Fire place but Heavy Arms pushed him in the fire
Awesome review! This is on my MUST BUY list along with the RG Wing Zero Custom and the upcoming RG Wing EW ver......once I can properly afford them and have time to buy them.
Also...any way to JUST get the Honoo's feet pieces for use with the HGAC Wing Zero?
Will you be getting the add-on set for this? Not necessarily for review, but more for a completion aspect
jerrel41596 nope
So yusei is a yugioh duelist and a gunpla fighter?
Can u pls review the hg wing Gundam (zero)
this was the first kit I ever wanted
does this come with a stand? and is it easy to take apart to paint?
Conner Sipos No and yes.
thank you *****
Type in terms of play value which is the best hg or mg kit to get
In the build fighters or buid fighters try line
Un Chi Wen hg
***** now I decided to get the mg build strike full package but do you think its worth it to get the mg universal booster to transform it into the star build strike, or just get the hg ver. without the power gates?
Great kit, great reviews, fantastic paint job. But the weathering is somehow making me hungry
didaswiwaw Well, I painted it like a toasted marshmallow.
On your review on the Kampfer amazing, you mentioned something anout tightening the waist joint to prevent the cannons from bring down the model. What did you mean by "tightening" and can this be used on other joints like ball joints?

Excellent review as always, though i hope your going to review the custom kit parts.
alucardF91 I'm definitely not. They don't interest me.
Try doing a review on the gundam epyon
so really when do we get to see all your gunpla
CERBERASX01 probably never
The fenice is also a wing custom
What did you use to redo the red?
Type ! Thanks for the vid man :D
Also really nice painting there !
Did you think about adding silver paint behind the clear parts? Wouldn't that make it pop more?
Sir Saber Thought about it, but there's detail underneath that I liked seeing (the knees and wings). Then with the shoulders/head I didn't like the idea of the backsides being completely silver - they don't lay flat on any surface so it would look odd from some angles.
I see.
By the way, what do you think about the upcoming 00 RG ? :D
Nothing much at the moment. It looks cool enough.
Are you gonna do a review of RG 00 Raiser? (If you bought one)
Tulio Sheihee no
looks like a toasted marshmallow and i love it
