I’m glad the RG line has turned into miniature master grades. I was really worried about it having a core fighter and it effecting the kit negatively. Loved the review.
RG Strike: "Who are you?" RG Impulse: "I'm you, but better in every way." I suppose Bandai just needs a few more tweaks and they'll be ready to make RG Double Zeta, Victory, and V2; maybe even AGE-2 and AGE-3, if they decided to give a hell about AGE at all. As for non-transforming ones with big backpacks, I'd say X and especially Double X; maybe even the Full Armor Gundam Thunderbolt ver. (of course, provided they make an all-new frame for it; which will then eventually lead to RG 2.0 RX-78-2)
Seed was my entry into gundam so it holds a sweet spot for me even though I know most don’t care for it. I’m really glad to see this kit given such good treatment. I’m currently building a seed collection and this one has been on the list. Can’t wait till I build it!
I just started getting into RGs. I haven't really much been into the 1/144 scale as they're just so tiny to me, and the first one I did was the rg crossbone and that head build gave me nightmares. But I decided to try again and this kit had thus far been a pleasure to build.
"This is mini Master Grade ... And this is mini Hand Grenade" this gag made my day lol. Thank you for the review man, your narrating voice is so exciting and funny at the same time. Keep up the great work!
As someone who owns a Gundam Impulse (MG Sword Impulse), this RG feels a lot better. Detail, articulation, build. Even though I was careful assembling mine and never broke any parts before or since, my Impulse needed glue in some parts. Shows you what 10+ years in improvements can do.
Hey Mecha, just a suggestion. You could make quick fire videos in multiple parts that rank every one of the kits you have so far, like 3-5 seconds per kit. That would be great to watch, and a great way to catalogue/re-deliberate all your rankings up to now.
The very first Gundam I've seen in my life got a platinum tier. Now let's see how many P-Bandai on the way : Sword Impulse, Blast Impulse and Impulse Blanche. Edit : 8:36 What you have is Force Impulse, I think what you meant is Blast Impulse.
Nice Review!! Really love how you look at the minute details that brings more depth to the kit and to the review. Unlike others where it is just dull and plain, and just looks at the entirity. Putting this on my wish list.
Just recently bought my third Gundam kit this week and it'll be my first 1/100 MG NT-1 Alex 2.0(also saw this from your review on it) from Hobby Link Japan, thank you for providing these videos and also because of this video I want to to buy this RG Force Impulse kit on my upcoming first check of returning to work thankfully 🙏😂
I fell in love with this kit when I saw it months ago, but now that I've watched your wonderful review I can only say I want it right now! Here in Italy I think it'll come in about two months (even if I hope it'll come before) and this thought makes me sad! Thank you Mecha Gaikotsu for this review that is even better than the previous ones! Have a nice day and stay safe! See you next time!
I would like to see RG Strike to be remodeled to 2.0 as well. Im actually not a fan of its awkward mouth vents and a bit more rounded face than its MG counterparts. It's also wiggly jiggidy
@@Lo-Fi-_-Gaming Ooh, that would be really cool and it would be amazing to see, but I still would rather see a RG Strike Freedom since it is my most favorite mobile suit of all time.
I got the kit when I went to my local hobby shop, unaware that this was a very new RG model kit. I was pleasantly surprised at how easy and how much fun I had building it at the time!
Guys! For anyone who wants to buy this figure or about to build, Please be careful handling around the wrist and forehand. I got the wrist split in half on accident because it cracked on one side when i tried to remove the hand because the ball joint is very tight(sand it down or put it carefully). And the forehand cracked a little when I removed it from the inner frame. I superglued both of them, the wrist looks like crap tho but its my fault for using superglue
top 200 remark, not too bad I love your content and smile while I watch it all the time. Many times I have or have not bought a kit based on your wonderful videos.Keep up the wonderful work!!
This was not in my radar before i bought it a few months ago... But when i watched this vid... It has been the center piece of the collection of 1/144 scales.. great stuff
@@thomas_mafty_haha Johnny Ridden's Zaku II is basically a retool of the RG Zaku II, which suffers pretty badly from "Early Real Grade Syndrome." Its not a BAD kit, it just suffers from a lot of lose parts and a wonky inner frame. To their credit, they tried to alleviate some of the problems with Johnny Ridden's Zaku... but its still built on the older RG Zaku II, so it still has a lot of problems.
Spee9dy lol it was a frustrating built for me.... maybe it’s just that I’m still fairly new to Gunpla but not plastic models in general, but I messed it up in a few steps and luckily fixed the problems with super glue and magnets.
Way back in 2016 when I got my RG Freedom, I immeadiately want an RG Force Impulse. My usual hobby shop said there is no such kit yet. This year, it finally came into existense.
I think this kit should be 5 star. Its our first new rg with transformation and done so much better then past rg Edit: we better get a RG blast and sword impulse
Don't mind me saying....this is your best review. Maybe not the best but my personal best. You made decide to buy a kit that I have no plan to. Very nice review.
Thank you Mecha Gaikotsu, because I bought this RG Force Impulse Gundam, and I did not regret buying this Kit, after handling the other RG's, Early Real Grades, sucks, but it is Fun for the looks and the articulation.(when you first build them)
Bandai is breaking the mold once again! This is why I'll always be a fan of Gunpla kits, they're constantly improving and evolving, and we keep getting better kits every year!
21:12 No complain on that dark blue nub/slot in front of the sky blue part? Looks quite jarring they didn't hide that especially it's right in front of the kit...
I'm glad I got this when I did. Despite my hate for Seed and Seed Destiny. The Force Impulse is probably my favorite looking *Gundam* in the franchise. I can't wait for this thing to get to my house.
Not to put you on blast or anything, I've yet to watch gundam Seed but love the designs of the gundams so I'm curious as to your critique of the series.
Aaaaahhh! Dang it! I just finished building the HG force impulse a week ago, and this thing comes out! And it's so much better looking! I had to tighten all the joints on that sucker too! Argableehsggsihs!!!
I would go for the MG Strike if you could find a price that is not that far from the RG Impulse. RGs got a lot of small parts and it's frustrating to me sometimes but still enjoy the build and the finished kit. Tho to be honest my first kit is the RG strike. I picked it cuz I don't know anything about the grades but Strike is my fav gundam.
For anyone who is confused about the tiering system
-Brown Tier: Shitty Kit (The worst)

It's only like 25 bucks. 35 plus shipping.
For me the average rg is 60-125$
It’s like $30 on USA Gundam Store.

I love how real grades are the cause for changing the rating scales. Shows how special they really are.
Oh hell yeah, RG Force Impulse!
I wanted to be early for one of my Favorite Gundams. Can't wait for mine to arrive. Even in all this Chaos. Happy it ranks so high for your review
11:35 Mecha you forgot to flip out the tail wings of the Core Splendor
again (he did the same in the MG Impulse review...)
Ah yes
Deja Vu
My god... IT’S BEAUTIFUL!! 😳
They really need to do 2.0s of the earlier real grades in this sort of mini master grade style!
Like the sinanju
Rg zeta 2.0 when?
it annoys me so much that this kit is literally just taking the rg gp01 and making it actually stable
@@theweedeater1842i really like the stardust memory MS designs, its too bad they were released when RG’s still used the premolded inner frame
rg 2.0 is possible now with rx78 2.0 announced
This is the first kit that got me into gunpla and it was amazing, amazing enough to get me to buy 5 more gunpla kits lol
I hate the SEED series, but I love the mecha design there.
Now they should rerelease early RG as 2.0 kits with the updated inner frames
The mecha design of SEED are superb, I really hope they make Destiny 2.0 and the light wings.
Agree on that. Shame Bandai didn't apply this new "Mini MG" style construction when they released the RG Perfect Strike.
I kinda like seed, don't judge me, I also kinda hate it
Yeah rg 2.0 on all previous seed kits.
The RG 00 kits were good tho
Yet another kit on my wishlist, so good!

PaszerDye this would be cool to see, I’ve personally been wanting to see how Mecha would rank the kits from his older videos pre-ranking system
It’s a great idea especially for the people who are looking to buy a kit and narrow down a selection
The very first Gundam I've seen in my life got a platinum tier. Now let's see how many P-Bandai on the way : Sword Impulse, Blast Impulse and Impulse Blanche.
Edit : 8:36 What you have is Force Impulse, I think what you meant is Blast Impulse.
Destiny impulse and Destiny Impulse R.
And destiny impulse blanche
Don’t forget the impulse with the Chaos, Gaia, and Abyss packs like it was originally supposed to have. But that might be a stretch for a P Bandai set
@@Bigjawnnn117 i was about to mention the same thing🤣. Impulse gaia might be the first quad pidal rg
i personally prefer MG over RG for the size, just hope they put in this kind of effort as well for future MGs.
I watched one of your really old videos, I noticed that you improved so much!! This is a great review for a great kit
18:24 might wanna check on FAZZ there, looks like he had the beginning of a spinal issue
I discovered your videos two weeks ago and all I can say is I want more x)) Amazing video! You're making me wandering if I could model build again x)

4:30 I think they're just called "silhouette packs". The striker packs were developed by omni and the impulse is zaft.
