    Does this model kit include a tendency to fall in love with enemy mobile suit pilots multiple times and be upset every time it inevitably blows up in his face?
    Thanks for the review, I think I'll be picking this up soon!

    @xSkye629x 7 років тому +6

    The Gunpla Evolution Project is indeed the Revive line, however it also now applies to the other grades of model kits that will be released. So MGs, RGs, and presumably PGs will now be upped to higher quality standards

    @DariusVladimirAuditore 6 років тому +27

    For me, this model is a baseline High Grade, not something that is part of a project called Gunpla Evolution Project. At least they could have given it more surface detail on par with Origin Zakus. And I don't like how the red sections on the wings are stickers.

    • @doctorx0079
      @doctorx0079 4 роки тому +3

      The polycap inner frame is a great innovation though

  • @_Caspergers_

    3 minutes in, and already the reason transformations should take a backseat in kits.

    • @dol_mel7487
      @dol_mel7487 7 років тому

      Cats Purr well not all transformations hinder articulation sometimes they increase it for example the gabthley

    • @AxeCrazyAutobot
      @AxeCrazyAutobot 7 років тому +1

      I've always held the belief that if the transformation's too complicated for the toy to replicate without having to rip it completely apart the Gundam shouldn't transform period.
      As you can guess I have a love/hate relationship with the Zeta.

  • @kaihayase1205

    Well Actually, The Gunpla Evolution Project is supposed to affect all Gundam scales and grades, not just hg's. I'm Particularly excited for what will come of the 1/100 G.E.P

    • @kakarot197
      @kakarot197  7 років тому +1

      The thing is, with MGs they already have the whole 2.0 and 3.0 thing going on. So at best it's still a marketing tactic for something that already existed, but now with a different, less straight forward, name (2.0/revive rolls of the tongue easier than Gunpla Evolution Project)

    • @Huildnotreal
      @Huildnotreal 7 років тому +1

      The thing about the Evolution Project is that it's a series of kits that Bandai will release up till the 40 year anniversary, the kits they plan to produce will show the "evolution" of the Gundam series and the technology of their kits.

    how come no hyaku shiki revive and mk 2 gundam revive comparsion

    • @areasevenpro
      @areasevenpro 7 років тому +8

      He's not interested in the Hyaku Shiki Revive, and he was not really impressed with the fact that the Gundam Mk-II (Titans) Revive is not interchangeable with the Advance of Zeta kits, so he skipped on the AEUG version.

    • @nope-xe2lx
      @nope-xe2lx 7 років тому +4

      areasevenpro he has the aeug one. he just didn't build it yet

    • @kakarot197
      @kakarot197  7 років тому +13

      The combined comments are indeed true.
      I haven't yet built the AEUG one because I felt like the looks were pretty "meh" compared to the original HGUC and I already have the awesome looking Gryphios War set version on my shelf.
      The Hyaku Shiki revive I didn't bother getting because
      1) It uses cheap gold
      2) I have the Gryphios War set version, which uses awesome gold
      3) I have the MG 2.0, which uses awesome gold AND is an overall amazing model kit
      So the Hyaku Shiki revive is really, really low on my "to get" list. If I need another Hyaku Shiki in my life, it'll be the one with the Mega Bazooka Launcher.

    on another note though...man this kit looks awesome...dont really care about the stickers on the binders...spray paint and gundam markers rule...i did notice though that the tops of the binders dont have those white parts or even stickers...i dont think ive heard anyone mention that in reviews.....

  • @faisalakbar9394

  • @DevasiaMentalityGaming
    @DevasiaMentalityGaming 7 років тому +3

    I've seen so many reviews for this lately, I tend to forget who all I've already watched... and I hate to say for all the interesting upgrades this model has, it's still too polarizing for me to commit to. Kinda expected that though, Bandai has a tendency to change things around too quickly without ironing out some of the problems that comes with these changes or overlooking issues in other places, so the first handful of kits that are subject to a new construction style fall short of full marks.

      Which is why in the following videos I was trying out various light setups because the recordings came out much darker than my old cam.

    • @Fayheurblode
      @Fayheurblode 7 років тому

      Didn't they already made Zeta plus quite recently? They made it for Unicorn, sure, but still it is the Zeta plus... So i don't really see anything other than the Wave Shooter equipment (which, for added bonus, is quite the missing link between Zeta Gundam and Zeta plus :) )

    @jaketheberge1970 7 років тому +1

    So is this the best/your favorite version of the zeta, including offshoots like the lightning zeta or the zeta plus? I don't own one.

    • @kakarot197
      @kakarot197  7 років тому +2

      In 1/144, it's most certainly objectively the best. However, I lean more towards the Zeta Plus (Katoki design + more realistic color)

      @ZombryaTheDark 7 років тому

      Kakarot197 lol your doubt's match mine. as much as I like the two tone colors, I'll pass on the fragileness. hgs are quick and easy. and this one looks great

    • @hypershock0storm479
      @hypershock0storm479 7 років тому +1

      ZombryaTheDark I've had my rg zeta for 2 years now and transformed it a few times. The waist joint is loose and the upper leg joints have loosend a bit, the only parts that fall off are the side skirts. The only sign of breakage on it are a couple of stress marks in the pelvic region, but no cracks. I'd say my model held up pretty well all this time compared to some of the other ones I've heard breakdown.
