Unboxing 03:26 Review 06:54 Final thoughts 20:46 Even though 2S decided to cancel his order with me, he's still a cool dude. Check out his channel here: ua-cam.com/users/2ndSndWve
It would be nice if the instructions would tell one how to put the core splendor into the gundam. This is my first Rg kit and it is beautiful- that said I have no interest in the transformations with the exception of there being a core fighter and until I watched this video I just couldn’t see how to attach it . Crossing my fingers I can figure it out now. Much thanks will subscribe hope you are still putting out content 😂
Great review, and killer posing, Krow. My sentiments exactly on this kit. We could probably say this is the first “new normal RG” kit that no longer contains MS joints, but also doesn’t bring anything special either. The price also reflects that . A sound choice for a Destiny fan that wants better detail and flexibility than an HG, but can’t burn the money or space on the MG.
loving the poses and very informative review Krow :) big improvement from the hg force impulse... hope they also made an upgraded rg freedom. nice that they include the gimiks included on the kit. might get this after i will definitely get this after i get my rg crossbone x2.
12:33 I was really hoping you'd talk about the wrist armor cracking so easily. I have both this and the P-Bandai RG Sword Impulse and both have cracked wrist armors left and right. I built the RG Force Impulse first and didn't really notice it since I just displayed it on an action base. Then a couple weeks after, I built the RG Sword Impulse and during the build process that's when I noticed the wrist armor cracked which shocked me because I haven't even moved it yet. Then I checked my RG Force Impulse still on the display, same pose and found out its wrist armors also has cracks in it in the same spot. The inner portion. The wrist armors on this kit are very fragile also the v-fin.
I think I might get this and modify the V-fin then give it a glossy black and chrome sliver/chrome gold/chrome rose gold repaint. Just think it might look better.
TheKrowSama Absolutely! And like I said on a previous comment to you im not a fan of reviews combined with unboxings etc BUT I gotta commend you for having those parts be as brief and tightly edited as they are, do not mind it like this at all :)
Steve's back! Praise vishnu!! Man, I was the same as you, not feeling this kit 💯, but after seeing gundamholics live build I was sold. Also everytime i heard that track during the unboxing, I be vibing.
The only good thing about RG Force Impulse is that there will be an RG Sword Impulse. That, I will spend my money on. But again, thanks for the review papa krow. though some of your opinion is subjective, but you're not discriminative nor debbie-downered the review. Those sick poses are facts.
I decided to just get every single new standard release RG from Banshee Norn on otherwise I probably would have skipped this one but it looks pretty damn good.
Drazen Legaspi Justice is 6 inches shorter at 1/1. Their shoulder, waist and knee height is different, but MS height is measured from the top of the head. So while Justice is negligibly taller by that measure, because of its stupid tall sensor, Force Impulse is the Functionality taller suit.
I agree with Steve cant wait for more Girl Kits, but then again im still melting my brain on a good way to make the shenlong girls arm strech out. stupid old polycaps that dont fit any new joints :(
Because it's an ugly transformation. In all my decades in this franchise, not one person has said anything positive about the force impulse transformation.
@@TheKrowSama I see... Also, the Force Impulse to me kinda looks like it's wearing a sleeveless blue vest for some reason... How does this compare to the RG Crossbone in terms of posability?
RG Strike: "Who are you?" RG Impulse: "I'm you, but better in every way." I suppose Bandai just needs a few more tweaks and they'll be ready to make RG Double Zeta, Victory, and V2; maybe even AGE-2 and AGE-3, if they decided to give a hell about AGE at all. As for non-transforming ones with big backpacks, I'd say X and especially Double X; maybe even the Full Armor Gundam Thunderbolt ver. (of course, provided they make an all-new frame for it; which will then eventually lead to RG 2.0 RX-78-2)
10:40 That hole on the back ... I guess they couldn't do a better job with it? 10:51 😃 11:24 Oh great. Now I can't unsee it. LOL 12:10 Agreed. I do think that the MGs proportion & designs are not that great, which is why I'm waiting for an MG 2.0 instead. 13:09 Hm? It looks like they added extra line detail on the back skirt. I think the MG had 1, but the RG has 2. 20:28 "...Launcher as well as the Sword packs..." Do you mean the Blast and Sword packs? With the release of RG ZGMF-X56S/α Force Impulse Gundam, I think (like the HGCE releases) Bandai intends on releasing RG ZGMF-X56S/β Sword Impulse Gundam and RG ZGMF-X56S/γ Blast Impulse Gundam as Premium Bandai releases. Personally, I'm passing on the RG and instead waiting for Bandai to make MG 2.0s for ZGMF-X42S Destiny Gundam, ZGMF-X56S/α Force Impulse Gundam, ZGMF-X56S/β Sword Impulse Gundam, and ZGMF-X56S/γ Blast Impulse Gundam.
I dunno about you man, but I would not have second thoughts blacklisting customers who just soundwave off their purchase from you!!! Daffy 🦆 chest hahaha thanks I hate it
wurstbrotmitbutter except england isnt part of the eu anymore so that would still come with import fees. Besides, most sites ive seen in europe overprice their kits to the point of being about as expensive as importing or only slightly less. Got any recomendation for me maybe? I live in the netherlands so italy or germany might be a good option for me haha ive yet to see a hobbystore selling gunpla in europe cheaper than just ordering from archonia.com though..
Hank Handsome ah ok so no import taxes when ordering stuff from the mainland of europe (so to speak), thats cool. So we could also still order stuff from the uk without importaxes here in the netherlands too then right? Ps: might want to check out archonia.com then theyre based in belgium and have lots of gunpla and amazing customer support. If they dont have it they can still get it for you unless its an old out of print kit. And they generally have the fairest prices ive seen for gunpla in europe. But im always interested in better deals haha which is why im curious where the other guy is getting his stuff in germany/italy :p. That said ive found for high grades up to 25 euros its pretty much always the cheapest to get em from hlj.com as theyre almost always on sale, the shipping for one hg kit is barely anything and we at least dont pay import taxes as long as the item is under 25 euros.
Man….ever since you mentioned the goofy duck face on that chest, I can never get that out of my head !!! Ever !!! Thanks for ruining this figure for me 🤦🏻♂️

That posing is pure Gunpla bliss to look at. Absolutely stunning. Yu got some mad posing skillz bro
Thanks bro

I won't be able to look at the Impulse's chest ever again without thinking of a derpy duck, thanks Krow hahah
Lol sorry lad
23:58
Steve, you're men of culture. I love it.
Steve: I have no affiliation with that transformation thing
should rewatch 0079 and see yourself lol
The way you promo’d NewType was pretty smart, nice one Krow.
12:35 why cracked?
You're honestly one of the best at posing gundams, the poses look phenomenal
Thanks man
Opening skit is superb 👌 🔥

You are really good with your videos. Great job man great poses
“Am I dying” 😂😂

I actually didn't notice it until after I filmed this. Guess it's a common thing.
Was that a cameo from Channel 2S?
Yep
I think I might get this and modify the V-fin then give it a glossy black and chrome sliver/chrome gold/chrome rose gold repaint. Just think it might look better.
Love what youre doing with the reviews krow and good to be seeing steve more often again too ;)
Thanks man. I feel this is the best format for my reviews, since I dropped UNBOXING videos for the most part.
TheKrowSama Absolutely! And like I said on a previous comment to you im not a fan of reviews combined with unboxings etc BUT I gotta commend you for having those parts be as brief and tightly edited as they are, do not mind it like this at all :)
lol what happened to steve's v-fins
He picked the wrong day to fight
RG Nu and Sazabi does bring an impact to RG line
You forgot RG Tallgeese
dude what is that ring tone at the start! it's so nostalgic i have been looking for it!
I've ordered from the Krow shop too. Poor customer service 0/10
How dare you
Steve's back! Praise vishnu!!
Man, I was the same as you, not feeling this kit 💯, but after seeing gundamholics live build I was sold.
Also everytime i heard that track during the unboxing, I be vibing.
Love the poses man!
Thanks man
love the poses krow
The only good thing about RG Force Impulse is that there will be an RG Sword Impulse. That, I will spend my money on.
But again, thanks for the review papa krow. though some of your opinion is subjective, but you're not discriminative nor debbie-downered the review. Those sick poses are facts.
great video man i enjoyed that extended intro lol. good looking kit. ive still yet to do a RG but eventually.
side note. love that background music
Thanks man. Honestly, this wouldn't be a bad kit to get as your first RG. I do personally recomend Nu or Tallgeese
@@TheKrowSama ill keep those 2 in mind when it comes times for me to pick one up
Bro the poses where sick
Thanks fam
xDD My sides! hahaha. Krow Shop now has a rival Newtype.
It would be awesome and fun if there's a random customer cameo in the Krow Shop skit. :)
Holy sh#t!!! The way you pose this kit is just awesome 😁😁😁
Might get this one because of this review 🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭
i cant unsee the duck face
I decided to just get every single new standard release RG from Banshee Norn on otherwise I probably would have skipped this one but it looks pretty damn good.
first time I saw your video, feels weird but I love it ? reallyyy different to others video XD
20:43 is the justice small or the impulse tall?
both?
which one is more correct in scale? bc in the wiki their height are both at 60feet/730inches
@@drazenemir8920 then I'm sure Justice is a tad bit out of scale.
Drazen Legaspi Justice is 6 inches shorter at 1/1. Their shoulder, waist and knee height is different, but MS height is measured from the top of the head. So while Justice is negligibly taller by that measure, because of its stupid tall sensor, Force Impulse is the Functionality taller suit.
@@drazenemir8920 730 meters? What? You mean 18.5 meters?
I agree with Steve cant wait for more Girl Kits, but then again im still melting my brain on a good way to make the shenlong girls arm strech out. stupid old polycaps that dont fit any new joints
:(
Im on the fence with this one. Sucks that any other variant is gonna be PBandai. Also is it compatible with the RG Destiny backpack?
I'll see, but I want to say no, because the connection point is different.
@@TheKrowSama yeah basing on the back shots without the backpack, it really looks different. But please tell us what you find out.
i will definitely get this impulse.. 🥰🥰
To admit, I agree with Steve on the transformations. It's stupid, but it's how it goes.
Hoping next RG is Ground Gundam or Gp-02
Cant wait for RG alex and tristan🔥
This is a definte to buy for me. Its gonna look nice next my rg crossbonds unicorn and tallgeese
Rx 78-2:damn you,you bring another gundam again,what they have that i dont have??!!
Good articulation and no attitude
@@TheKrowSama rx78:damn you!im out!!
I have that exact same shirt!
Damn the impulse looks good
Hot damn , this will look good on my RG freedom gundam if you know what I mean 😄
Those knives maybe the best thing of out of this gunpla xD
duffy duck chest.. now I can't unseen that anymore.. 😂😂😂😂
I don’t understand why people complain about the transformation of the model kit that’s literally how it transforms in the anime
Because it's an ugly transformation. In all my decades in this franchise, not one person has said anything positive about the force impulse transformation.
It's a cool transformation
oh god, I can't unsee the duck face now.
Now we both are scarred
This one or the RG Nu?
RG Nu
@@TheKrowSama I see... Also, the Force Impulse to me kinda looks like it's wearing a sleeveless blue vest for some reason...
How does this compare to the RG Crossbone in terms of posability?
RG Strike: "Who are you?"
RG Impulse: "I'm you, but better in every way."
I suppose Bandai just needs a few more tweaks and they'll be ready to make RG Double Zeta, Victory, and V2; maybe even AGE-2 and AGE-3, if they decided to give a hell about AGE at all. As for non-transforming ones with big backpacks, I'd say X and especially Double X; maybe even the Full Armor Gundam Thunderbolt ver. (of course, provided they make an all-new frame for it; which will then eventually lead to RG 2.0 RX-78-2)
I dont expect a new AGE kit unless it's from the build line. I'm all for a new RG no matter what it is.
cool channel 2s is on the phone xD
I hope they dont' make sword and blast silhouettes P-bandai...
Bandai: 😈
now tt u mention it...imagine RG Victory :DDD
I really like this design....until i see the way the knee blends with the rest of the leg ....or the lack of a proper good blend..........
10:40
That hole on the back ... I guess they couldn't do a better job with it?
10:51
😃
11:24
Oh great. Now I can't unsee it. LOL
12:10
Agreed. I do think that the MGs proportion & designs are not that great, which is why I'm waiting for an MG 2.0 instead.
13:09
Hm? It looks like they added extra line detail on the back skirt. I think the MG had 1, but the RG has 2.
20:28
"...Launcher as well as the Sword packs..."
Do you mean the Blast and Sword packs?
With the release of RG ZGMF-X56S/α Force Impulse Gundam, I think (like the HGCE releases) Bandai intends on releasing RG ZGMF-X56S/β Sword Impulse Gundam and RG ZGMF-X56S/γ Blast Impulse Gundam as Premium Bandai releases.
Personally, I'm passing on the RG and instead waiting for Bandai to make MG 2.0s for ZGMF-X42S Destiny Gundam, ZGMF-X56S/α Force Impulse Gundam, ZGMF-X56S/β Sword Impulse Gundam, and ZGMF-X56S/γ Blast Impulse Gundam.
Would you build the MG 2.0's?
👍👍👍
God damn this kit sexy
Steve - Im a plastic robot ,i dont drink
Say the one that wants a waifu XD
His thirst is quenched in other ways
I would ordered from your store krow but there is one thing holding me back.....
Corona.....
No...
My freaking empty wallet:(
#BuildBootyPlamo
Better than mg
I dunno about you man, but I would not have second thoughts blacklisting customers who just soundwave off their purchase from you!!!
Daffy 🦆 chest hahaha thanks I hate it
I'll give soundwave a second chance lol
Man why do you have to show me so many kits that I wanna order? England Import fee's vs Gunpla. Here we go again.
wurstbrotmitbutter except england isnt part of the eu anymore so that would still come with import fees. Besides, most sites ive seen in europe overprice their kits to the point of being about as expensive as importing or only slightly less. Got any recomendation for me maybe? I live in the netherlands so italy or germany might be a good option for me haha ive yet to see a hobbystore selling gunpla in europe cheaper than just ordering from archonia.com though..
England still has trade deals. Italy has been fine for gunpla. Otherwise i’m about to get hit with import soon
Hank Handsome ah ok so no import taxes when ordering stuff from the mainland of europe (so to speak), thats cool. So we could also still order stuff from the uk without importaxes here in the netherlands too then right?
Ps: might want to check out archonia.com then theyre based in belgium and have lots of gunpla and amazing customer support. If they dont have it they can still get it for you unless its an old out of print kit. And they generally have the fairest prices ive seen for gunpla in europe. But im always interested in better deals haha which is why im curious where the other guy is getting his stuff in germany/italy :p. That said ive found for high grades up to 25 euros its pretty much always the cheapest to get em from hlj.com as theyre almost always on sale, the shipping for one hg kit is barely anything and we at least dont pay import taxes as long as the item is under 25 euros.
Should be able too. I’ve ordered from France, Italy. Ireland. Japan and the US and only the last 2 charged me.
Hank Handsome Cool, thanks for clearing up my misconception ^^
The chest looks like a dog and fish
Imo, Impulse is better than Strike.
A prelude to an RG Victory Gundam, since the Impulse is a Victory wannabe

Man….ever since you mentioned the goofy duck face on that chest, I can never get that out of my head !!! Ever !!! Thanks for ruining this figure for me 🤦🏻♂️
I like Steve. A plastic robot of culture.
