i find that Unicorn scene where the Marasai fought against the Byarlant custom quite symbolic due to both Suits being formerly Titans units, now pitting against one another.
Well the marasai was the turning point of HGUC line so its honestly not that bad even still some kits that came before aren't that bad either other than the limited articulation and color seperation, and the rifle I believe was mainly used by the gabthley, so thats probably why theres no way of storing it Zack I just noticed something you have never reviewed the HGUC gundam ground type
Huge fan of all the HGUC suits. This is one kit that I am missing but I can only hope for some MGUC kits and living in Canada makes that hope even harder. Thanks for this review Zaku
0:16 yeah ok Zak we get it the Tristan is awesome and everyone complaining about is wrong!(see I can do that too :D ) Really neat kit though even though I think I like the Zeta ones colors a bit more. I hope we can see that master grade sometime in the future I am interested in it now thanks to this.
Coming back here after pre-ordering the reprint of this kit in anticipation of the new Gundam Evolution hero shooter haha, glad to see the kit is actually decent considering its age!
I've actually been planning to do a kitbash with a pair of Marasais and a Xeku Eins. Luckily its just some simple modifications [hopefully], a couple of new hands [curse those big, useless old hands!], and new weapons. Painting it will also be easy thanks to how bulky the parts are. Though I have yet to decide which decals to use on the project... Meh, I'll figure it out once it is painted. Anyways, another awesome review!
could you please review the HGUC Sazabi? I already have it... just want to know your opinion on it... and there's hardly any review of it on youtube...
do you gonna continue the custom thing especially with dantalion like you said in oob vidio. i like to know other kit to tho i think tats gonna be awesome..
Jon Yusko The federation wanted to get rid of all traces of the titans since they no longer wanted to be afflicted with them and eventually fell into neo zeons hands
AUGH! There eleven kits that I REALLY want, give or take a few and this is one of them. And I am limited to two kits a year because... unexplained reasons. Why did I just type that? Whatever. Anyways, nice review, nice kit.
Jetfire48 the hamma-hamma is a kit on my list. I am only allowed to have two kits per year because of rules set by my mother. BTW I am not an adult living with my mom, I am a teen. Now for why, she probably wants me to save money.
dam right she is. if i blew away my earnings as a teen and didn't get admitted to uni (or any higher education provider for your personal situation), I wouldn't have a job that buys not only any piece of gunpla I ever wanted, but provides me enough for all of life's modern essentials. trust me, it's just a buying impulse you're having now. no need to rush :)
PANDAsian thank you. I do see the reasoning in both your and my moms points. To bad I don't get an allowance, if I did then in could save some real money. /:P
if you remain calm and rational, as you did when replying to my comment, you'll have no problem finding a legitimate way to earn some real money. in fact, being a teen is a great time to get started as people are always looking to hire teens because teenage wages are less than adult wages (sad, but gives you a slight advantage in the casual job market ). All great marathons start with the first step (god, I sound like an old goat, and I am not even 30 yet). ps: apologies if I sound too upfront in any of my comments. Just imagine all that text in a soft, low, and none threatening voice (which is actually what I would sound like in person if I said it).

i find that Unicorn scene where the Marasai fought against the Byarlant custom quite symbolic due to both Suits being formerly Titans units, now pitting against one another.
I finally ordered this kit today. I'm pretty stoked to get it
@@porkflaps4717 so is it good?
The pilot of the Byarlant was a Ex-Titan who if I remember correctly used to pilot a Marasai
100% agree with the hands. Pure agonizing getting it to hold the weapons. Great video
The Marasai always felt to me as a proper Zaku III as opposed to the actual Zaku III
Who thought of that rifle? "Hmm you know what would be a great idea? A rifle with a bayonet that's pointed towards the user's shoulder!"
lol, it was originally designed for the Gabthley or Hambrabi I believe, both transforming suits. So a sort of transforming weapon maybe made sense.
Well the marasai was the turning point of HGUC line so its honestly not that bad even still some kits that came before aren't that bad either other than the limited articulation and color seperation, and the rifle I believe was mainly used by the gabthley, so thats probably why theres no way of storing it
Zack I just noticed something you have never reviewed the HGUC gundam ground type
that's a not-so-subtle way to ask for a review, lol
His weapons, both rifle and that dildo-looking thing are straight up from the Hambrabi.
Great review as always and nice looking kit. I might pick it up for a diorama that I plan to make soon in the future
This would look good painted in the same colors as his custom Efreet. That was a bomb ass kit.
thanks!
This and kampfer are two monoeye MS that I want a new version so muchhh!!!
the MG Marasai is quite recent. or are you talking about a new HG?
oh I was talking about HG, HGUC keeps getting better with recent kits so would love for a new HG version
Thanks for the review I'm planning to buy the zeta ver. And paint it to look like the unicorn ver. And this is really helpful
Huge fan of all the HGUC suits. This is one kit that I am missing but I can only hope for some MGUC kits and living in Canada makes that hope even harder. Thanks for this review Zaku
you're welcome!
Giving some love to the old good kits... I know you're preparing us for the Tristan! Do some justice!
hah, you're clever!
0:16 yeah ok Zak we get it the Tristan is awesome and everyone complaining about is wrong!(see I can do that too :D ) Really neat kit though even though I think I like the Zeta ones colors a bit more. I hope we can see that master grade sometime in the future I am interested in it now thanks to this.
I would like to see your method of articulation mod to increase the elbow & knee bend. Please.

Yay my favorite grunt suit!
Really liking the new style of the thumbnails 👍
thanks!

It think Zaku's unlike gundam type Gunpla units are the kind of kits that seem to age more gracefully than its gundam kit counterparts.
*that color is "pastel coral"*
lol, well alright
could you please review the HGUC Sazabi? I already have it... just want to know your opinion on it... and there's hardly any review of it on youtube...
that's been asked for a few times, so maybe. But right now I actually started working on the MG Ver.Ka!
Febry Maulana It's a good kit but has loose hips
are going to do the MG one?
I have it and someday yes I will review it! Haha
@@ZakuAurelius it‘s been years :(
do you gonna continue the custom thing especially with dantalion like you said in oob vidio. i like to know other kit to tho i think tats gonna be awesome..
I will. Just working on finishing a couple other things first!
that sound so good. thanks for reply
Why are all unicorn kits missing a double jointed elbow?
this wasn't originally a Unicorn kit. the regular version was released years before this
Ooo the hguc one
ZakuAurelius but still all hg unicorn kits are not double jointed for example the jesta
Why did neo zeon get the marasai and not efsf? Wasn't it an efsf ms?
Titans I believe.
Jon Yusko The federation wanted to get rid of all traces of the titans since they no longer wanted to be afflicted with them and eventually fell into neo zeons hands
ZakuAurelius hey what is the real account of koto on amazon because I want to buy a metal gear kit
are you going to get the amazing Hi nu gundam vrabe
no
'Umi hebi' means 'sea snake', right? That's a cool name for a weapon.Great review as always, Zach!
Will you be going to the korea gunpla expo? If you are, when? August what?
I probably will, yeah! No plans for that yet though
are you going to do a review on the Dragon Momoko Deathscythe hell tv ver?
and the astray outframe when it comes out?
Deathscythe, no. Out Frame, yes.
zack is spray paint good for model kits?
it's better if it's spray paint specifically for model kits (Tamiya or Mr.Color), but yeah paint is paint.
Master Grade Please
AUGH! There eleven kits that I REALLY want, give or take a few and this is one of them. And I am limited to two kits a year because... unexplained reasons.
Why did I just type that? Whatever.
Anyways, nice review, nice kit.
Melvindog 8 why two kits only a year? If thats the case I would wait for the RE1/100 hamma hamma

oooo.....those plastic stress marks on the shoulder look nasty. Old-school HGUC molding techniques :(
I think that's from the glue what you're seeing there~
thanks for clarifying. thought it was like that OOB.
nice m.s.
that machine gun is super ugly and makes the other rifle look like its been sculpted by the gundam gods
this is funny, the green one has red hoses and the red version has green hoses.
The weapons in this kit are fucking ugly.
