"I've got an idea for our next Zeta design." "What have you got? Remember, we've got to live up to the excellence of designs like the zaku, gouf, and dom." "We put a kangaroo in a ufo skirt and give it a crab claw. And it's neon pink." "My god...you're a genius."
I've always loved how Zeta's occasional monster-of-the-week style resulted in bizarre, menacing, and exceptionally distinct mobile suits and mobile armors. Sure, it meant that a lot of them were an acquired taste or were simply more niche designs, but it provided such distinct and inventive designs that are instantly recognizable. It's the kind of thing that modern Gundam works shy away from in the hopes of making as many of their designs as possible be easy on the eyes to guarantee sales. You'll never see something like the Qubeley or the Baund Doc in WfM. My only gripe with this 80s mecha kino design is the lack of thrusters. For how menacing it looks while it rushes a MS down while in its MA mode, it only has 5 thruster bells: three medium-sized bells clustered at the tail of the skirt, and two microscopic thrusters on the tiny backpack on the torso. This thing deserved at least twice as many thrusters, along with an enormous flare of combusting gas and a comet-like trail to really make it look like it's meteoring towards you.
In the UC universe, even the space ships get robot arms. The idea is AMBAC- a system where the mobile suits waive their arms and legss around like acrobats in order to turn in space. This allows for 0 fuel turns (Because you would otherwise have to use fuel for every tiny turn and adjustment). And it is why they have humanoids robots- if you got robot arms, you might as well give them guns. And 4 arms is better than 2 for the acrobat stuff. And you need landing gear, so two of the arms are actually legs. BAM- mobile suit made. This is also why the suits have stupid wings in Zeta. "6 is better than 4" is the logic.
Kinda little nonsense, except Minovsky craft system from mobile armor Apsalus and White Base ship. GN Drive (Gundam 00) and Ahab Reactor (Gundam IBO) kinda give little sense. They can manipulate gravity.
Seeing this design again in dragons heaven really tripped me out, then realized m kobayashi made that lil film everything came together. Really want the gray one tbh, hopefully thatll come out in the near future
I gotta say, thank you for putting back that part where you slap down the runner bags as you count them. I don't know why but I find it entertaining and immediately noticed when you stopped doing it on some of your previous videos.
Kitbash it with a Megami Device kit and you have yourself a Greater Daemon of Slaanesh. That being said, at that point it'd probably cost as much as GeeDubs's stuff...
@@notatallheng 3d print one of millions of different anime girl STLs and use that instead of a Megami Device kit. 3d printing is the only affordable way to play Warhammer lmao
One of the weird designs from zeta that I actually really like, it looks kind of creepy and the proportions are nice I definitely prefer it to the quebely, Gaza c, or barzam
I remember the first time I saw the Baund Doc, I was like "This has to be the ugliest Mobile suit I've ever seen" then when I saw Gundam Build Fighters GM Counterattack and I saw the Gold Baund Doc and it blew my old opinion out of the water
His name kinda make sense. Baund Doc, there's a Filipino word Bundok meaning mountain. Baund Doc loos like a mountain with crab claw when it transforms.
Idk why some people dislike the design, for me this is very cool and unique. It's like the Anubis of the Gundam Universe (MS mode only though) I hope they do more bizzare kits like this
this kit looks really cool!! the single joint at the arm is kinda dissapointing though, but it's understandable with the transformation it's just kinda dissapointing seeing a a really skinny elbow having a single joint in my opinion
Sucks that every monster-of-the-week abomination from Zeta gets a kit, but we still have no HGs of many of the most prominent mass-production suits from Victory and Turn A.
they placed a lot of effort into making the claw on the baund doc good, but not the seltsam's arms? (sorry i still wasnt over the fact that the fucking kit is incredibly loose and poorly designed arm)
@@gat-x105strikegundam5 it's not that, it's just the design isn't that appealing, and the standard gundam look isn't the only good design, there is the Geara Doga, the Slash Zaku Phantom Yzak Joule, there is the Graze, the Io Frame Shiden, and probably the best looking design in my opinion, Gundam Vidar

Guess you know how you’d wanna kitbash it. Should you wish to do so.

@@maverick6c631 yea, manipulating gravity makes more sense than moving arms and legs for more efficient movement...
So, it's kinda like a fish changing direction with its fins?

Somehow a greyscale color scheme almost always makes a wacky looking design look much more menacing imo.
i agree it looks kinda cool idk if i would get this kit if i did i could not keep it like this i would want to paint it asap
I gotta say, thank you for putting back that part where you slap down the runner bags as you count them. I don't know why but I find it entertaining and immediately noticed when you stopped doing it on some of your previous videos.
A couple videos recently yeah I didn’t do it, haha
1:12 it's the scene when Kamille and Rosamy chilling in the colony outside the MS's
I wonder how a painted up Baund Doc with some custom touches would look next to an Emperor's Children army.

Now I wanna see a update kit of the O since all of the most iconic kits from Zeta got an update
Baund Doc is one of my favorite MS in the old PS2 Gundam vs Zeta Gundam game. Great to see it finally got a model kit release.
Pretty darn awesome honestly, I know it’s goofy but it’s unique and that’s what a lot of gundam series lack now days! Awesome review man!
One of the weird designs from zeta that I actually really like, it looks kind of creepy and the proportions are nice I definitely prefer it to the quebely, Gaza c, or barzam
Refined barzam looks sick tho
@@possibly8180 yeah
Ok your intro become more and more...interesting lol. Also Lobster mobile suit!
Zeta is my absolute favorite Gundam but I don't really remember the Baund Doc. I think it was only in a few episodes.
Yep! Like most of the bad guy suits it didn’t last long
I remember the first time I saw the Baund Doc, I was like "This has to be the ugliest Mobile suit I've ever seen" then when I saw Gundam Build Fighters GM Counterattack and I saw the Gold Baund Doc and it blew my old opinion out of the water

I hope they do more bizzare kits like this
Personal preference, I don't like it either. I like weird design in AOZ but some of the design in Zeta just doesn't look good to me.
To me, it looks like it was made out of junks.
I loved it the moment i unlocked it in Gundam vs Zeta, all the titans mobile suits were neat.
Dude, I watched the livestream build and that was a good time.
The most beautiful and elegant MS is finally here! I have five in the mail currently.
this kit looks really cool!! the single joint at the arm is kinda dissapointing though, but it's understandable with the transformation it's just kinda dissapointing seeing a a really skinny elbow having a single joint in my opinion
Single elbow plus the mid-forearm bend make for a full double bend basically. Just a really long elbow joint kinda
Space flying crab 🦀 Ashtron Gundam be like hold my 🍻 Beer
knock knock! who's there? baund doc! baund doc who?
🎶 you ain't nothin' but a *baund doc*
cryin' all the time 🎶
I fell in the love the first time I saw it, "what the hell is that?!". Really glad Bandai made a kit!
I honestly just want this so I can use it’s parts for custom builds.
gonna get model and customise with seltsam arm
Ooh, that's a good idea!
I tried it. The Seltsam arm is a bit small but it can work
@@ZakuAurelius well, I guess that does make sense lol
I really like this design. It reminds me of something Toriyama would draw, specifically the Skeleton Pirate Robot from Dragonball
Not too much stickers which is 👍
I think this kit would actually look pretty nice kitbashed with some skinny legs. The massive waist piece kind of looks like a dress already.
Very cool Mobile Armor. I'll have to get one.
This was the fever dream of a Zeon engineer high on psilocybin
Now someone can make that golden Bound Doc from Build Fighters Gm’s Counter Attack
and get wheeled under it 🤣😂✌️
what do you get when you blend a haro a crab and a ball lol 🤔
baun doc is space unit right?
It's made to operate in both space and the Atmosphere.
He should customize it to look like a pirate
This has some Getter Robo vibes IMO
Flying horse shoe crab with guns
Check out dragons heaven for The o and baund doc!
Yep that version inspired my custom build idea a bit!
here's hoping for a HGUC Psycho Gundam Mk II!
It's wierd and I love it, I'll buy 2 of those
Are you going to have a review also for the latest hgac heavyarms?
Nope
I want this one! And The Moon Gundam!.
thats an interesting into
i saw ur comment on type v3's crossbone maoh video cool!!! :)
Can't wait the gundam heavyarms
Won’t see it here on this channel 😅
Well that's kinda disappointing
Sucks that every monster-of-the-week abomination from Zeta gets a kit, but we still have no HGs of many of the most prominent mass-production suits from Victory and Turn A.
I agree it would be nice if Bandai showed a bit more love to some other series, but so long as we’re getting nice kits I guess 🤷♂️
My main question: how many takes did that intro take
First take!
@@ZakuAurelius Impressive
Holy moly, I love this dumb thing xD *wishlisted*
Thanks for the review as usual zack!
Bolinoak samahn when? It’s all they have to make for Zeta Gundam and then they’re done.
That and the Psycho Gundam Mk II.
@@hypershock0storm479 and Geymalk
@@s3d17 the Geymalk is from ZZ Gundam.
He sounds like my local news' helicopter repporter
Ah yes, the angry robot pirate kangaroo
It's big, but I wonder how it compares to the Psycho Gundam
I'm not supposed to buy any gunpla for the rest of this year, but I must find out
HGバウンドドックめっちゃかっこいいね！ 素組でも、ほぼ色分けされていていいね！！！
Does the transformation require extra parts (parts-formation)? Does it leave some leftovers?
Nope! No parts forming
Aw man, you mentioning RE100 made me realize the line is truly dead. This would've been a perfect design for that
It doesn't seem to dead seeing as how they are still releasing some Re kits ( Lindwurm) I bet they will keep putting out kits randomly
I like the head, it looks like Anubis. Rest is erm hmm.
bandai in these years like to make some ungundamlike model kit
Is the USA gundum store a legit site? Cause I found a giyuu nendoroid from demon slayer, cause on the good smile company the pre order is closed
Good review
it would be nice if Baund Doc was compared with the Penelope 🤣
The intro tho
Are you going to do the version from dragons heaven of it?
Not exactly
I think I will get it. it's very original
Mechagaikotsu should add this in this are you bored of gunpla kist
8:00 wait, is this pornhub? I wasn't expecting upskirts from you.
That’s blocked here in Korea 😭
Zeong...Neo Zeong...Baund Doc...The-O...Sazabi...maybe the Quebeley...those are all some massive mofos. (Did they ever do the Big Zam?)
No Big Zam HG yet. And Qubeley not really all that big in comparison. Kshatriya and Silver Bullet would be a couple other examples of some big ones
a.k.a. the last thing that Jerid pilots before he goes kaboom.
Good riddance
Re100 please!
Big boi
Why did he jump off his work table?
I didn’t! I dropped in from the sky!
Why can't i unsee its Barbatos' gundam-frame waist on that suit. Baundoctos, Ryusei Doc etc. lol
It's frame is pretty skeletal.
This mobile suit look better than wing gundam.
Reminds me of george jetsons robot maid.
The name's Baund. Baund Doc
Sry couldn't help it
Funfact if you painted red and add some eyes and anteneas to the mobile armor mode it looks like a lobster
maybe it's just me but this thing reminds me of the Banshee.
The claw yeah!
@@ZakuAurelius and the opposite arm reminds me of the Banshee's claw in unicorn mode when it's closed into a big fist.
Are you ever going to custom that beyond global into a casval gundam?
Yes! Just painted it last night!
@@ZakuAurelius awesome! Can’t wait to see it!
they placed a lot of effort into making the claw on the baund doc good, but not the seltsam's arms?
(sorry i still wasnt over the fact that the fucking kit is incredibly loose and poorly designed arm)
Space crab anubis mobile armor should always get the better R&D no matter what, no complaining
Pre ordered this drunk last night and I did it because I love jerid
I came here to know how it does transform but you didn't
Turn the upper body 90 degrees, rotate it back under the skirt, fold the legs out to the side 🤷♂️
I don't like the design. But it is interesting
Baund doc sounds like a Filipino word "BUNDOK" which means mountain
It’s a mountain of a kit!
I like weird design
This is so ugly and pretty at the same time,
Makes me want to buy it
And I though The-O was thicc!
Nah, The-O are the real thicc, baund dog are skinny if you remove the skirt
@@seabookarno1664 Well, I didn't.
So there you go.
IT ACURSTED AS see in ANIME IN HG'S Line.
Finally, Baund Doc!
This is an interesting kit, but sadly I have no intention to buy it. For now.
Not for me, but I bet a lot of people are happy to get this.
Fôrght ńîght bürgér
Heres a fact, you haven't finished the video.....
(btw i was second @Znoiks kun beat me)
It's hideous
Goofy ahh mobile suit
Burn stick
I cannot begin to describe how much I hate this stupid design.
It's 80's Bandai what would you expect?
Same
@@failed_K not a rejected Ideon design. It's out of place when compared to just about every other MS in Zeta.
Derek Gamble how dare you criticize Bandai for producing anything else than a white, yellow, red and blue v-finned mobile suit!!!!11!1!1!1!11!!!
