  • Here's the High-Grade 1/144 scale Zaku II Type C/C5 The Origin Version. I'm glad we finally got the classic green Zaku out in the Origin line! And it comes with pretty much all the weapons and options you could want!

    Every time I shop at usagundamstore I use your discount code (unless I’ve purchased something recently and received my own code). But seriously, it’s helped me out on numerous occasions. I’ve only recently got into this hobby and between your channel and usagundamstore I’m set. Basically just wanted to throw a ‘thanks’ out there. Keep it up.

      It's not a Desert Type, just a Zaku Half Cannon, being a standard C5 Zaku retrofitted into mid-range fire support. Nothing in common with desert type other than the colors. Still looking forward to it, though!

    Note- this thing is solid. So solid that I completely missed a central chest piece that goes directly goes on top of the waist... and I never noticed anything wrong for a week. Yeah. The upper chest has a "spine" that ends in a get that goes into the waist. The "stomach" is just a piece that goes over the spine and helps to cover up the gap in the back (clear open hole the middle). I only noticed that the piece was missing after seeing the ab crunch on another origin kit video. Even without that piece to rest on, the chest stayed up without any issue. It is a strong "spine".

  • @TsorovanZero
    @TsorovanZero 6 років тому

    Please include the legs if you do make that video about the seams. I personally found the high mobility type's legs to be a special kind of hell to clean the seam on. It is definitely not beginner friendly when it comes to painting. Maybe I'd get the C5 if the seams on those legs are less awful. The arm seams aren't too bad if you have any sort of scribing tool to clean out the panel line and in the corners.

  • @GuntPulp
    @GuntPulp 5 років тому

    My C-5 has a commander's antenna and the reasoning is he is a commander of a sniper unit. Gotta keep it military colors, I just custom painted the antenna and spikes and he's good to go, along with that rifle.

      Also try the RG and/or HG revive version of the Gundam Mk II, and also the HG/RG Sinanju to go with your Unicorn. Pretty much available in SM/Ayala/Robinsons, or through the various hobby shops in Metro Manila.

      The revive Gundam is really not an anime-style design. It's based on the Real Grade design, which is based on the Master Grade designs, they just wiped out all the surface detail.
      Gouf is a bit more anime-styled. Not sure about the Guncannon and Gyan personally.

      marcdosh57 just look up a tutorial, if you have plastic cement and a hobby knife and sandpaper you can do it easily. Put the cement on both halves, squish it together allowing the excess liquefied plastic to bubble out, hold it together until it dries, let it sit to cure for a couple hours, then cut away the excess if needed, and sand it smooth. Check out Bunkerpla on UA-cam for some more great tutorial stuff.
