I didn't mention the price specifically during the conclusion, but I think it goes without saying that 2.200 Yen is quite steep for what we're getting.
Ok. I just saw an extended clip of Gundam Unicorn episode 6, which included footage of the Rozen Zulu dominating the suits of the General Revil. I can sympathize with you now. The Rozen Zulu took out the majority of the mobile suits The Sinanju decked the ship itself, and a few mobile suits. I actually like the Rozen Zulu a lot more now after watching that episode
I freakin' love this thing man. Even before I got into the anime I was really drawn to the Geara Zulus, Angelo's especially. Now that I have this, the Guards type, and the regular, I can say this is by far one of my favorite HGUCs of one of my favorite mobile suits. And yes, I like Angelo's more than the regular green grunts. Great vid man!
WHY DO SO MANY PEOPLE COMPLAIN ABOUT THE STICKERS ON THE ENEMY UNICORN SUITS? Sinanju Sinanju Stein Kshatriya Kshatriya repaired Geara Zulu Rozen Zulu etc. I don't think Bandai would've been able to make the sleeves of these suits into alternate parts in HG form. The stickers look fine for what they are, and I think they look better with the stickers than without. If you can paint them successfully, good on ya, but I think the stickers are fine. I built the HGBF Crossbone Gundam X1 Full Cloth (TWICE) and that kit has the exact same thing going on with the sticker sheet. The only ones that I have an issue with are the yellow and black stickers on the full cloth pieces
i hate stickers period no matter the kit because i am an old school modeler and would rather have water slides because they are not prone to pealing as far as for actual color accuracy this really is a non issue for me as i paint all of my kits anyway its when it comes to markings i would rather have dry transfers at the least or water slides
I honestly prefer the Geara Zulu Guard Type since it the exact same suit as this, but you get a Geara Doga's backpack. Would be nice to buy this just to slap that backpack on the Guard type. Also, Bandai, 1/100 MG Geara Zulu and Geara Zulu Guard Type, make it happen.
Not a bad review, but I do actually have one complaint this time, Karkarot197! I was disappointed that you didn't equip that gun on another kit, especially after an introduction like that.
I’m so disappointed this doesn’t come with his beam shot rifle. Honestly the only thing I wanted out of this kit so I’m SOL. You would have to scratch build one since the Sazabi’s has a shorter barrel and a completely different back half.
The MS In Action line was discontinued in 2008 as it was replaced by the Robot Damashii/Robot Spirits line of action figures. Too bad that RD/RS figures are stupid pricey. $200 for a Xamel is BS.
If you are planning to give it to your Geara Doga, you can try to slightly customize the Lange Bruno Gun to make it the Geara Doga Heavy Armed Type from Gundam Unicorn OVA epi 3.

@@marcosdheleno "Pretty old?" The Stark Jegan version in this battle is based off the D-Type Jegan and the D-type was rolled out only two years before Unicorn happened. In fact, the entire Jegan line is still relatively new at this point.
if your getting the hguc Rozen Zulu make sure you get the episode 7 version it's more color-accurate then the first realize and has everything you need to make the original it's just a better one trust me on this i spent double buying the same mobile suit just different kits BUY THE ROZEN ZULU 7TH EP version TRUST ME
That's what i did. Too bad you can't fully assemble both versions of the arm due to a missing polycap part. This can be remedied if you have another kit with the same sprue that has the part left over.
I have a question that you could maybe make a video out of. How do you display all of your kits in your collection. Every 6 months or so I hit crisis mode because I’m running out of space.
Kakarot could you please compare the geara zulu to one of the zeon suits from gundam the OG or your zaka high mobility type Shinn matsunaga custom? Im really curious how tall it is. Might get it its the same size
If I have a HG geara Doga, can I put the backpack bruno Gun on it? Cause I would buy it only for the Gun, so I would have a Geara Doga Heavy arms, kinda...
Angelo's suits aren't actually that good, only really being better than what grunts are sent out with. Kyshatriya is actually way more advanced in comparison to the Rozen Zulu, having I-fields all the way around it, multiple beam machine guns, and mega particle cannons, as well as using bits instead of INCOMS. The Rozen's only ace in the hole is the psycho jammers but thats useless if its against a Unicorn with destroy already active or a non-psycommu based frame. The Rozen is also terrible as an assault type in that its clearly not designed for big battles like more traditional assault types and its predecessor the Hamma Hamma, and especially not ones where newtype weapons are not on the enemy side. Verdict: Considering newtype tech in other suits is reletively easy to counter already by being a newtype/psycho enhanced pilot, and that other psycommu based technologies in UC can make you so good that stopping jammers from reaching you is childs play or irrelivant, the best suit Angelo ever got to pilot kinda sucked.
Essentially, he doesn't really do anything in the story aside from getting angry. We never see him being a good pilot (aside from curbstomping General Revil's team, but that was mainly due to Rozen Zulu's power and a lot of people dislike this scene anyway), we never see him as a great leader or a good comrade and we never see him saying or doing anything interesting. He doesn't have a character arc and without him, the story would progress pretty much in the same way. He's essentially an annoying mini-boss character whose sole purpose is getting in the way of the main character and getting his ass kicked.
I have one that I'm planning on painting in different colors. The raw plastic for this kit is bleh. It's slightly closer to the art for the novel but the OVA's darker colors are better but not my color palette of choice.
the gun had a 3mm hole as a connector. (if that's what you're asking) edit: the gun connects to the backpack via ball joint to the backpack and a 3mm peg connecting to the gun.
Was there ever a green Geara Zulu released with this backpack/gun? The standard GZ has it in Gundam Reborn so i'm wondering if there's an HG that does too.
@@thecanadianeh1438 Thought as much... *checks Gundam wiki* Ah, the Gilboa Zulu is the normal Zulu with this cannon backpack. That suits me perfectly. The Guards Type has the added armor from Angelo's GZ but it has the Geara Doga backpack. I wonder if the HGUC Guards Type still has the normal Zulu backpack as unused/option parts...
Funny, but Zaku 1s in canon couldn't carry beam weapons like that. Zaku 3 and Act Zaku had the wattage to use it. Eh though, grand pa Zaku never looked more angry than when he stole a BFG from a Zeonic descendent and came back to the front lines.
@@TheKing-qz9wd It could work utilizing the method that gave the Zaku I a beam sniper rifle. Although gunpla kit wise, it would just be stupidly badass.

Notice how Kakarot hates Angelo Sauper so much, that he didn't even put "Angelo Sauper Use" in the title

He still doesn't hate Angelo Sauper as much as me.
