Thanks again to Umbrellarocks! Also, tell your friends about UC-RD Reviews and get me to my goal of 1K subscribers so I can start posting Robot Spirits updates with the photo-posting ability!
I've had char's zaku 2 toys for a long time and I can say this is the definitive version of char's custom zaku 2. You might not appreciate the simplicity of the figure but you forget the great engineering done one this figure in order to be posed in so many ways. The only gripe I have with this is not using a softer antenna as the antenna can easily break from a bad fall, the connection too to the head makes it easy to lose even with an extra one provided which will suffer the same fate if you're not careful. Other than the antenna this figure is almost perfect and it can do a proper kneeling position that looks natural which is something that a lot of action figures can't replicate. I can relate to the fact that this figure has been done so many times that it gets boring but if I think that most of them fail to capture the essence of char's zaku then this is a resounding success. With this version I can say I have found the best anime char's zaku out there. Also with every gundam line of toys out there I don't find it complete to not have an rx 78 and a zaku 2 as these mechas defined the series.
I like this Zaku mold. I think the figures are a little plain with the paint (I’ll be posting my Real Marking Char’s Zaku Review which has much more detailed paint) but the figure itself is great
Once I make it to 1000 subs, I’ll be your one-stop news outlet for that. I get all the release info the moment it’s out and I can post it here once I get 1000 subs and I can post photos through UA-cam
I was curious to see if we would get it since Perfect Gundam and Perfect Gundam II utilized existing molds and Perfect Gundam III does not but I’m happy we’re getting it. I’ll be putting my order in as soon as I can
Hey uc rd, any recent experiencies with nippon yasan? I've seen some nasty things online but before knowing that, I preordered the mrd barbatos lupus and was about to get the penelope, any recomendations?
Only bad thing I experienced was them delaying my product for months. I forgot which figure it was but they got it in and just held onto it for a while and I had to message them several times before they finally shipped it to me. They’re also a bit more expensive than other sites most of the time
@@UCRDReviews then do you recommend I get something as big as the penelope on that site? I guess my barbatos is safe then, as long as I get the figure I don't really mind waiting
Boy you seemed pretty disinterested in this review lol. It is just a Zaku II repaint for the most part. I never got it but I’m thinking about grabbing the Universe one to stand next to my Universe RX-78.
I wasn’t disappointed but it just didn’t wow me for some reason. I know it’s just a repaint but it’s just been done to death which is why I didn’t buy it myself
I forgot to ask you this once before: any theories why Bandai skipped the Z’Gok E, GM Command, and Guncannon Mass Production Type from 0080? They’ve gotten almost everything from 0079 and 0083 except the Dra-C at this point. Seems so weird to skip those when they’ve done so many MSV and more obscure MS.
@@barkingapollo My only real theory is that I noticed that figures get released to go along with other figures for the most part. Cima’s Gelgoog went with the Prototype Rick Dom, Zaku II Kai went with Alex, Hygogg went with GM Cold Climate, etc. The GM Sniper II got a release possibly because it had an older RD Release and the GM Command Space went with the Gelgoog Jäger. So maybe they couldn’t pair up those MS as well. The one that baffles me is the Rick-Dom II being absent from both 0080 and 0083.
Honestly the Char's Custom units are often too bland for me to bother with. It's really just an overhyped coat of paint for a suave devil who gets cucked by a plot armor infused child soldier. There's nothing major done like Char's Z'Gok replacing the missle tubes with a Mazer from a Zock or Char's Rick Dom having a Z'Gok's particle gun installed into the nipple stun gun. It just doesn't strike me as a Custom. In that same vain actually I dislike how the GM Custom is called the GM Custom. Should be called A-type or something. That said, I don't imagine Umbrella will be too happy with that front skirt vandalism you've unfortunately befallen, hehe.

Nice review. I’m seeing a lot of kimberlite Zakus out. What website can we check for the the most up to date robot spirits releases????

Bandai just announced the Red warrior/perfect gundam 3. Thoughts about it?

Forgot about the Rick Dom II. Such a Bummer.
