I just started on this one today and as soon I started, the screws were not the right size. Did you have any problems with your burning gundam’ screws as well???
You're the reason I got this kit. It's really good for just posing whenever, and even with the v fin broken off on the right, it's still really durable. Gonna get that RG whenever I can find it.
Just finished building this kit and I absolutely love it. It looks amazing and it's sturdy as he'll. Granted, the plastic feels a bit brittle and it's kinda scary to handle, but still solid as a rock.
Lol, mine broke the front upper left part of the torso by itself near the gatling gun. Gladly, it was hidden, so no glue was needed and it is really hard to see it, so no harm done
Got cause it was cheap, so worth it. Spent a while coloring and panel lining, something about it just makes me love it so much, I hope there's a 2.0 sometime
Some kits are just nice and fun to mess with. I love my RG Rx78 and Wing Zero EW, but the kit i spend the most time playing with is my cheap $12 HG Leo. Super basic, barely any detail, but I love the thing so much and it poses really well.
@@wolfbrother9025 Honestly, I haven't had any issues with mine, maybe I got lucky. I messed with it a couple days ago and its holding up just fine. The one thing I hate are the hands, but again, I personally haven't had issues with it. I guess the legs come off sometimes when I move them, but still hold a pose without issue.
Now looking back at this kit, is just simply amazing. The “Action frame” it is using was the very first iteration of the full body inner frame, it laid a very solid foundation and paved the way for what we have today. There is also an extra gimmick for this and MG Shinning, the SD version(2002 version) of those suits come with extra pose hands that are compatible with the MG kits. Such little detail added a lot of flavour for those kits, that’s one thing I like about those older kits.

Got this one because I just love G Gundam. Now I got it arms crossed on my shelf along the MG RX-78 Origin. It is amazing how firmly it just stands there. Great review, really liked the instructions on how to paint the kit. While the RX-78 was more fun and easier to assemble overall, painting the God Gundam was a really enjoyable experience
Really appreciate you making this review. Was on the verge of buying this really old kit. But due to the lack of detail, I might have give it a pass for now and hope for Bandai to HOPEFULLY release a newer version of this, since they've release a RG version.
as someone whos had the burning gundam for a year now,i have to ask were we suppose to use the screws? mine has stayed together and fells solid, i think i only used like 5 screws one in each leg 1 in each arm and the one in the chest to hold the chest and waist together
This kit comes in 2001. You should gave this kit 5.5 in articulations score haha. It is known as the very first pinnacle of well articulated Gunpla every created before. That's why they added screws lol... No I'm not kidding But anw, enough for the information. I love you videos!
I unknowing got this as my 2nd gunpla and first master grade and i have limited modeling background but i found it to be pretty intuitive to build but i can see how younger practitioners of the hobby could be turned away by an older MG such as this one
for those wondering about the flashing text at around 6:09 to 6:12 *What is love, baby don't hurt me, don't hurt me, no more* "Feeling real old right now lol"
Yeah, like you said since it's green in the anime, I'd say that's probably the default, and the recent Robot Damashii uses metallic green too. But yellow is passable imo.
This will be my first gunpla when it arrives along with a basic tool kit. I watched a good amount of the 2nd half of G gundam as a kid so I had a nostalgic soft spot when choosing this one. Does it matter if I don't care about adding marker and detail first time around?
Also, since this gundam and several gundam from the same era have less part separation compared to newer MGs, not panel lining the kits would make them a little bland. Specially the face area, without lining you wouldn’t see the vents on the mouth area.
Nice vid, dude :3 I think I'm going to pick up this kit by tommorow, is it ok if I buy a black Gundam marker so I can add paint to the black trims on the shoulders, feet and front skirts?
Thanks! That's what I did, I used a Gundam marker for everything. They're just so convenient. You'll have no problem doing the bulk of that trim with a marker. I will say for the shoulders, paint the trim BEFORE you snap them together, because the ink tends to run down the seam line once they're put together. Best of luck!
Sure. If you have experience with other types of model kits, you'll have no problems at all with Gunpla. Actually, you'll probably laugh about some of the stuff we complain about lol
There's sort of a middle ground. Too tight and the joints become very hard to move and the plastic will bend and crack. I'd recommend going loose, bending it a little, then tightening a little more until you're happy with it. Best of luck!
I think your scoring needs some adjusting. I have noticed that you tend to hold older kits to newer ones when we know that the technology wasn’t as it is now. Also I may add that God Gundam is probably one of the best looking kits at its time so your appearance score is hogwash. Easily a 4-5.
Aside from this review being my opinion, you cannot judge a kit solely based on the time it came out. If that was the case, we would be recommending 1995's MG RX-78-2 to beginners because it was 'better than the 1980 kit' that came before. Everyone's standards for what makes a good kit is different, but for me, it's based upon how difficult it is to get a kit looking like it does in the anime. From that perspective, the legs of this God Gundam are still scrawny. This was even addressed in the Hi-Res kit, where the legs were beefed up. Not to mention the extra black painting (with no channels) is needed.
RedHeadphones6 yeah you actually can because obviously people who are just being introduced to Gunpla, they are going to be going for the newer kits because they have the newer technology. And comparing them to oh I don’t know Master Grade Barbatos or Double Zeta Ver Ka completely alienates older kits like God Gundam, Master Gundam, Shining Gundam, Gundam Spiegel, RX-79[G], EZ8, Dom, and Zaku 1, which are all still great kits for the time that they are built that don’t have 2.0 or Ver. Ka kits. So no you shouldn’t be comparing them. If you are going to review kits you have to hold them to the standard at the time and whether you would buy them. The thin you go on about is the work to get them accurate to the anime is part of the fun of building the kits. If builders were that concerned about the work we’d just buy the MSIA toys or spend the bucks on the Hi-Res kits which are glorified action figures that you just add the armor on.
My main gripe with the G Gundam kits were the fact that the legs were so limited at the waist. I bought the MG Master and God Gundam at the same time solely so that I could do their iconic pose together, which I then found out they couldn't do. Disappointing, to say the least.
Thanks for watching!

@@stevencolon1723 sounds like youd love the mg barbatos
@@V2ULTRAKill I sure as hell did. Cannot stop posing him
@@stevencolon1723how can you like the RG RX-78-2 that thing falls apart just by looking at it to hard

The legs are scrawny, you say? Maybe Bandai was watching your review when they decided to redesign this for the Hi Resolution model lol.
I personally like the redesign that Bandai did with the Hi Res God Gundam. It now looks like it's built to fight

if u really love anime accuracy..u should pick mg jegan, is a mg kit that fall into either love it or hate category
Will you ever review mg shinning gundam ?
I need this one for my g gundam collection
I think we are due for a new mg god gundam, super keen for the RG later this year though.
I brought one and i did really enjoying posing this kit.
got this gundam mg. but didn't see any orange-yellow beam for the back.

GODBLESS.
The god gundams face looks like someone I know at school
Lmao same
Why are the God (or burning) slashes green? They've always been purple

More MG review bro, very nice work!
I unknowing got this as my 2nd gunpla and first master grade and i have limited modeling background but i found it to be pretty intuitive to build but i can see how younger practitioners of the hobby could be turned away by an older MG such as this one
this kit deserves an upgrade
for those wondering about the flashing text at around 6:09 to 6:12
*What is love, baby don't hurt me, don't hurt me, no more*
"Feeling real old right now lol"
i'll get Master and Spiegel for some reason
You know what they say old is gold
I wonder what is the definitive color for the energy multiplier in its chest; in anime is green, but for the model kits is yellow.
Yeah, like you said since it's green in the anime, I'd say that's probably the default, and the recent Robot Damashii uses metallic green too. But yellow is passable imo.
This will be my first gunpla when it arrives along with a basic tool kit. I watched a good amount of the 2nd half of G gundam as a kid so I had a nostalgic soft spot when choosing this one. Does it matter if I don't care about adding marker and detail first time around?
Sudokuwiz ! Just have fun with your first few gunpla, detail and panel line when you’re already familiar.
You can buy a pour type gundam marker. Not the best out there, but if you’re a beginner it makes detailing easier.
Also, since this gundam and several gundam from the same era have less part separation compared to newer MGs, not panel lining the kits would make them a little bland. Specially the face area, without lining you wouldn’t see the vents on the mouth area.
It does have its flaws but its a pretty cheap kit for it being a mg, for the price its definitely worth it IMO. Takes some extra work to shine though.
@@abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz4839 welcome to the club bud.
Are they ever gonna give this guy a 2.0?
Does a Hi-RM count?
@@missmilky6677 No? The frame is pre-built and it's more of a hyper-stylized design rather than a 2.0.
The Milkmann high resolution don’t exactly classify as model kits since the inner frame is an action figure.
Nice vid, dude :3

hello. can you put led on its head?
Weren't the beam sabers in the show more purple/red/pink in color?
hello..will you review Mg Gundam Spiegel?
What is you favorite suit from the msv series?
Would you recommend to an expert aircraft model builder
Sure. If you have experience with other types of model kits, you'll have no problems at all with Gunpla. Actually, you'll probably laugh about some of the stuff we complain about lol
How tight must the screw go deep? Alittle loose or tighter?
There's sort of a middle ground. Too tight and the joints become very hard to move and the plastic will bend and crack. I'd recommend going loose, bending it a little, then tightening a little more until you're happy with it. Best of luck!
@@redheadphones6 you provide the best steps of helping out on the kits you review, thanks a million!
please review shining gundam mg please
I guess I got an old kit cause mine don’t look like that
