The movie is not only the most successful Gundam movie in box office, but so far as the most successful movie in Japanese box office as of the new year. WOW
I'm certain that SEED Freedom can overtake Encounters in Space as the Gundam movie with highest revenue record, even if we use inflation calculator to readjust the EiS revenue number in 2023
I want one now :0 Ive been getting into warhammer and miniature painting and i have to say... Gunpla is still the best hobby. They just feel more valuable and heartfelt ❤
I built gunpla over the years using stickers, it's meant for those who doesn't like painting, all it takes is time and patience to do just right. The shell unit stickers from G-Witch kits for example are still pretty awesome. the large stickers I used for building HG Psycho Gundam is quite a breeze when carefully applied.
I was so worried that the wings couldn’t go strait back when you didn’t show it in the articulation, thank god they can also despised the transformation but love the explanation its not for fighting but long range transport so good
when the first leaked art and the trailer revealing the suit came out, a lot of people felt like the design came out of some Build Divers spinoff. I wonder if the perception has changed now that the movie and the kit is now out
It certainly looks like a must buy... but I want to do something about the nose cone for the MA form. I'm curious if the wings can be transplanted onto either the Destiny or Freedom's backpack
it's using the standard adapter style (2 pegs), and so do those iirc, so It should in theory. unless I'm wrong and the hg freedom revive uses a striker pack adapter or smt lol
Oh no no, I mean the pegs for the wings themselves and not the whole backpack. Love the look of the wings and the... boosters? thingies but the MA cone is just... bleh@@AB-wl5ny
lol, nah it uses a two peg backpack but I'm talking about the pegs for the wings themselves, not the whole backpack. Love the design of the wings/booster thingies but not the MA cone @@JJTheDev
@@greyastray9875 ic. I'm curious about that too, but don't have either to verify myself. you can prob fine the manuals online and compare peg styles (which ones the one), tho peg size is tr hardest one to check without owning em
You have a very small typo on the description. It reads "Freediom" so an extra "i" there. I know this is nitpicking but your video is so top notch on 4K, incredible detailed and complete that everything must be perfect :)
Well hg rising freedom like all hg freedom available variant og hgce freedom, hgce strike freedom, it is back heavy and have difficulties to stand by himself. Bandai could at least give a simple action base like for hg verde buster, blue duel or gunbarrel dagger that we can see in other review. Apparently they have simple action base but atleast they can have dynamic posing or stand and stay still.
When HG mighty strike freedom gundam goes to sale, I will take off that beatiful but useless wing away and put strike freedom gundam backpack from RG or HG on it. That's way we can get strike freedom gundam with better articulation plus sword and better wing backpack
That is the point of it if you watched GSD all the way to the end. Strike Freedom had to be stashed away due to it being nuclear powered which is technically war crime levels of illegal. Rising Freedom on the other hand is battery powered like a regular MS hence why it is backwards because it is *meant* to be
Glass files aren’t for sanding, just for removing nubs. They dont work very evenly and can leave weird round edges so don’t work well on large surfaces. Sanding sticks will give you perfect flat surfaces so great for removing nubs and Mold lines but always leave the surface scratched up and a bit rough. You can buff out those scratches though. Basically you kinda need both 😅
@@MechaGaikotsu oh wat seriously. I don't like to use different sanding paper all the time, I prefer to use one. If u see 2 nippers one for cutting the parts, the other for cutting the numb mark, and use glass file will that work.
What I don't like about the design is the feet. It's short and looks like lotus feet. And the heels point inwards which makes it more susceptible to fall backwards due to its heavy wings.
I think because the movie was in development hell for so long, these kits were delayed equally as long. These may have originally been planned to be some of the first hg kits that would have released with no polycaps, I think.
The engineering on the kits though don't support that view. The HGCE Rising Freedom has superior overall color separation and articulation to the HGCE Freedom Gundam, which released in 2015.
So the next mg ex wiill be... the mighty strike gundam??? Not that i would complain but... exua 2.0 firsr please and a fkn mg g self kal please!!! We all know we are going to get master grades of both new stike gundams. Which is fine by me because it wraps up my mg fredom/ex collection. But that's a given. Rx-78-2, wing zero custom and freedom get all the love in every grade all the time. I even gave in and bought the new hg freedom and justice kit's just incase our fucked up world goes really south and we don't get the mg's. That says alot because 1% of my massive gundam collection is hg and one rg (rg wing gundam) all mg and lot's of p bandai kit's to boot. Ain't paying $400 for that astray though sadly 😢 . Fkn scalpers got me enough alrwady but not thus time, not for a destiny astray from Korea. Sorry . I'd pay $200 but not $400 that's fkn insane for a color varient, mash up of all those kit's i already own and have spare part kits of. I could just build fighters that shit myself and paint it and mabey buy 3rd party decals for it for less than half the cost.
@@EmanueleCappello The thing about the Witch from Mercury kits is that their designs typically don't involve lots of thin lines on thin parts. When they do though they run into the exact same issue, such as with the Aerial's shield with its blue and white stickers, and of course the non-molded Shell Units. The HGCE Rising Freedom as can be seen has amazing color separation on the actual body itself, and in fact its body color separation is even more impressive than the HGCE Freedom Gundam's, with the latter for instance needing lots of red stickers for the railguns, whereas the Rising Freedom has them colored. The Rising Freedom's main sticker weakness are its wings, which has the white "racing stripes" that would be difficult to color separate in HG format without unduly raising the price.
I hated the wings after seeing the line art but after seeing the kit I realized why, it was the white lines on the wings Edit: Now the white stripes have grown on me lmao
The whole gundam feels like a step down from the previous two but when I was at gundam base and saw it firsthand, it looked really cool and decided to get it. I guess it's one of those "it looks better as a figure than in the movie" type deals
@@alvarosolorzano5405This. I mentioned this awhile back, but I'll say it again: "I hate the Sports Car aesthetic this design emanates". Removing the white stripes fixes that.
@@XIfan420u think that easy on making mass production standard model kits are? There are so many new hg model in this jan-february releases. Do u think that fast enough to create many model in time? 😂 not all ppl want freedom or justice anyway, all variant model on movie first came out is better than just rising and mighty freedom first in schedule, thats kinda stupid move
Thank you for the review sir! We finally reached the point where we got a solid, fun-to-pose Freedom in 144 scale. Dreams do come true. Cannot wait for the Mighty!
I've already seen GSF twice in theaters, and all I can say is that it's easily a 10/10 movie because not only is it amazing and breathtaking on its own, but it even goes so far as to complete Seed Destiny, which in turn actually retroactively improves that show's overall quality significantly. Believe me, GSD suddenly becomes 3x better the moment that you now know that GSF immediately follows its ending. I'd even daresay that this is the best Gundam movie I've seen ever, probably more so than even CCA and Hathaway I, and I've seen most of them. Look forward to this movie, global folks!
I understand Japanese, so I was able to enjoy GSF just fine. To my knowledge, there is no English-subtitled version of the movie right now, and we probably won't get one until they release the movie worldwide. Even then, it's unlikely they'll screen that subtitled version here in Japan, so you'll probably have to wait for the BD release.@@eatlunch457
That's so overrated. It's better than CCA yeah but Hathaway? Nah. The plot is just like an old Asain drama where the baddie want to NTRd the protagonist by seducing his wife. The latter part is pure of cringed stuff. Like the part when the black knights tried to read Shinn's mind and he thought of Stella and turned her into a monster to stunned them. And also the part when Athrun think of when he make love with Cagalli to counter the mind reading. For me it's just Cross Ange using GDS's name.
@@osmanstenberg4255 Just a tip, no one will think you're cool by casually dropping massive spoilers without spoiler tags in a public chat about a movie that the rest of the world is still waiting for, so might wanna work on that. Second of all, reading the movie's synopsis from Zeonic Republic is not the same as seeing it, because I've seen it twice already and it surely does not feel like an Asian soap opera nor is it Cross Ange, which I've also seen multiple times. If you haven't seen it yet, wait until it comes out in your region and give it a try.
Ya know, I wonder how it would've turned out if they went the route of those "stickers" that are basically really thin plastic with adhesive on one side. I feel like that would've been the best of both worlds
Those kinds of stickers would've been a bit too thick to be used on the wings, and if you design the wings to take that thickness into account you'll end up with a detail-less wing that'll be a pain to paint if you go that route.
@@ChrisTian-sd5yq The Mighty Strike Freedom's wing stickers are effect parts nestled inside the wings. The Rising Freedom's stripes on the other hand are an exterior design element meant to portray a painted part, and therefore not really comparable.
Buying this as soon as it arrives in my local stores. I already have a copy reserved for myself thanks to my buddy who works at the hobby store I frequent.
This is probably my favourite freedom and thats mostly because how incredibly engineered this kit was For anyome who Bill enjoy the 2020 HG infinite Justice get ready for a whole series of that type of engineering because that's exactly what GSF is going to be
I know that Bandai is trying real hard to get kits good enough, but I feel like they just stop working hard halfway through the design. You could have maximized this kit and make it better🥲. Such wasted potential... ⬇Anyone who agrees
I own this kit. It is actually really good and Bandai really put a lot of effort into it and before you say "but the stickers", it is still minimal and understandable. If anything, Immortal Justice despite having less stickers didn't have much love as this kit.
Gonna be honest, never understood the hype around having a full inner frame. Outside of clear versions, it doesn't really add anything to the finished build, aesthetically or structurally. If classic high grade construction minus polycaps keeps the price down, I'm more than happy if this is the result.
For me I love the look of the rising. I always thought the regular freedom didn’t have enough blue on the actual ms. The wings kinda seemed tacked on and didn’t mesh well to me. Love this new look, and yeah the white not on the wings still looks good
Im currently in a seed project starting 3 weeks ago getting hg grunts from og seed and customizing them like an ace pilot would For example gold painted m1 astray + gatling gun pods + calf mounted beam sabers I already have m1 astray done and planning to get gunbarrel dagger for a more strike dagger appearance + proto-exus style But i legit cant find one for zaft Ginn is too old Zaku is too new No ground suits Ginn himo and cgue deep arms is already so customized Ginn himo2 is nowhere to be found Guaiz / Guaiz R is nonexistent (seriously bandai give us this and hg justice/providence revive already) Cgue is my best bet Any other kit suggestions or mod suggestions? The theme is a red color scheme like an ace mobile suit of an army (Red blue yellow color idea, planning blue for 105 dagger and yellow for astray)
why would the ginn be too old? if anything, i feel like the ginn would be perfect. specially if you kitbash it with other suits. like the arms and legs from something like a zaku or gouf or even go with stuff from zaft gundams, like the dreadnaught, savior or even the impulse.
@@a.p.studios8713 but that's the beauty of custom units. and because seed is not like other universes, the gin is still a capable machine, even when faced against the daggers and the astrays, because neither has PS. on the contrary, the ginn is actually more dangerous, because it doesnt use beam weaponry, since the daggers have nanolaminate coat. also, the high mobility ginn, is basically a green version of the ginn. and im pretty sure there are some ktis for the armored ginn(forgot its name) which is basically what you want to do.
@@marcosdheleno actually You have a point The 105 and m1 both dont have phase shift armor Meaning that beam or not they are still weak to ballistic weaponry Im gonna stick to the cgue hg (for aesthetic), paint in johnny ridden color or something (red and black go really good together), and arm it with missiles/gatlings Thx!
@@a.p.studios8713 the cgue is a good choice, since it was made as a commander unit. there is also, the ginn high maneuver type 2. which also comes with a cool shield and the katana(but the cgue has the gattling composite shield)
I'm confident that Bandai doesn't care about the stickers. I think their viewpoint is that stickers are for newbies, and that everyone else will use Gundam markers to make it color accurate.
on one hand they've made the stripes into stickers to keep the plastic mold simpler but on the other hand they gave us an option not to put them on for those who hate the white gopnik stripe design so I guess it's a win-win situation?
In kit form (amd that figure especially) the design is definitely growing on me. I see some Freedom x Destiny x Guaiz? x even some Wing in this thing (when the wings were off lol) Also... *pulls out the OG Freedom Good god, they were that "bad" back then? *remembers I built the OG Aile Strike and Providence Goddam! They WERE that "bad" back then 😂 looks like a chibi no-grade beside the Revive
See, I see this kit and all I want from it is to take the backpack and slap it on some other parts and give it the Zeta legs or the Wing Zero's legs or the DX's legs with the Airmaster's feet to make my ideal MS. This essentially has the Re-GZ Kai's transformation and that's exactly what I was looking for to complete my build. Long story short, I'm getting a copy for myself.
I didn't like it initially, but when I saw the gunplas, I'm starting to like it. Maybe I'll consider it. Afterall, if I buy rising freedom, I must also buy the Immortal Justice LMAO. I decided to pre-order for Mighty Strike Freedom for now. And maybe IJ type 2 as well.
30:3931:42 You're supposed to drop the plasma cannons even further by rotating its base inward towards the head along the axis of the wings, so that the cannon's hinges are on the side rather than lying flat like you demonstrated. That's why the cannons look weird in the video, instead of how it looks in the manual. Also noting that you made the exact same mistake with the HGCE Freedom Gundam review a while back.
I hope we get the Lightning Buster and Duel Blitz Gundam in HGCE form. This will open up the door for the regular Buster and Duel Gundam. (Still waiting on a HGCE Aegis)
I keep going backwards and forwards on whether or not to get this. Freedom (and the strike gundam) have always been my favorite of the SEED designs but do I need this and Mighty Strike Freedom? ... I'm getting both arent I?
I would prefer the kit wothout stickers as well. it looks closer to the OG Freedom. with the white stickers for some reason it makes me feel like some sort of a police gundam. lol. but without it, just the black and blue on those wings, you would instantly know that it's the Freedom.
Another problem that would’ve happened if the wings were fully color separated. It would’ve made the back way too heavy. I know most people don’t pose their freedoms on the ground anyway but as a kit that doesn’t come with a stand, it’s nice that this can stand on its own. I mean hell, look at the pg strike freedom. That kit has stickers on the dragoons for the very same reason. It would’ve been too heavy.
I cant understand why they cannot make color eye separation on 144s a standard? Before i thought, ok, maybe they were too small because even MGs, not all have them either, then we had entry grades, some units for witch from mercury. I mean they CAN do it after all
I'm both excited to see the freedom movie and to eventually get this kit. But also disappointed that the mighty strike freedom replaces this amazing version of the freedom, I'm Mainly disappointed because the mighty strike freedom is just the strike freedom with different wings, different shoulders and a katana while this looks like a combination of the Destiny and the freedom with a great color scheme.
I'm new to gundam collection and want my first gunpla to be a freedom because I just like it so much but all the ones I've seen they seem to have so many issues I want a good one😢 that's not rising 😅
The movie is not only the most successful Gundam movie in box office, but so far as the most successful movie in Japanese box office as of the new year. WOW

I want one now :0 Ive been getting into warhammer and miniature painting and i have to say...

I built gunpla over the years using stickers, it's meant for those who doesn't like painting, all it takes is time and patience to do just right.

I was so worried that the wings couldn’t go strait back when you didn’t show it in the articulation, thank god they can also despised the transformation but love the explanation its not for fighting but long range transport so good
when the first leaked art and the trailer revealing the suit came out, a lot of people felt like the design came out of some Build Divers spinoff. I wonder if the perception has changed now that the movie and the kit is now out
I need a MG version of this asap
Totally agree with you
Yes i Want This New One!
But There's No All HG 1/144 Polycaps Anymore
It certainly looks like a must buy... but I want to do something about the nose cone for the MA form. I'm curious if the wings can be transplanted onto either the Destiny or Freedom's backpack
it's using the standard adapter style (2 pegs), and so do those iirc, so It should in theory. unless I'm wrong and the hg freedom revive uses a striker pack adapter or smt lol
It's got the normal 2 holes connection, so i guess you can.

That man Rising Freedom is doing that yamaguchi stance so hard you'd think he was a super robot
Objectively too, the white parts that are stickers would likely be decals and wraps if it was a real life machine.
If it was a real life machine, it actually would be painted on.
Well hg rising freedom like all hg freedom available variant og hgce freedom, hgce strike freedom, it is back heavy and have difficulties to stand by himself.

I wish MG had a discord server for the building community and channel fans! 👀
20:59 is a great audio clip.
Not to mention the model of rising of freedom looks better than the revive of the original freedom kit.
Gunpla has evolved, but it hasn't evolved enough to prevent 50 million white trim stickers for the backpack.
3:29 just buy the Stamen Gundam and it's complete👍

Amazing review as always. Can't wait for mine to arrive!
I don't know, the kit is great, but the gundam itself is just a leap backwards from the strike freedom, so I don't get it.

This is probably my favourite freedom and thats mostly because how incredibly engineered this kit was
For anyome who Bill enjoy the 2020 HG infinite Justice get ready for a whole series of that type of engineering because that's exactly what GSF is going to be
I know that Bandai is trying real hard to get kits good enough, but I feel like they just stop working hard halfway through the design. You could have maximized this kit and make it better🥲. Such wasted potential...
⬇Anyone who agrees
I own this kit.
It is actually really good and Bandai really put a lot of effort into it and before you say "but the stickers", it is still minimal and understandable.
If anything, Immortal Justice despite having less stickers didn't have much love as this kit.
Gonna be honest, never understood the hype around having a full inner frame. Outside of clear versions, it doesn't really add anything to the finished build, aesthetically or structurally. If classic high grade construction minus polycaps keeps the price down, I'm more than happy if this is the result.
Can't wait to swoosh the bird mode along with Wing and Kyrios. 😊😊 And Airmaster too.
You can pose the rising freedom in gerwalk mode (macross) 😊
For me I love the look of the rising. I always thought the regular freedom didn’t have enough blue on the actual ms. The wings kinda seemed tacked on and didn’t mesh well to me. Love this new look, and yeah the white not on the wings still looks good
Im currently in a seed project starting 3 weeks ago getting hg grunts from og seed and customizing them like an ace pilot would
For example gold painted m1 astray + gatling gun pods + calf mounted beam sabers
I already have m1 astray done and planning to get gunbarrel dagger for a more strike dagger appearance + proto-exus style
But i legit cant find one for zaft
Ginn is too old
Zaku is too new
No ground suits
Ginn himo and cgue deep arms is already so customized
Ginn himo2 is nowhere to be found
Guaiz / Guaiz R is nonexistent (seriously bandai give us this and hg justice/providence revive already)
Cgue is my best bet
Any other kit suggestions or mod suggestions? The theme is a red color scheme like an ace mobile suit of an army
(Red blue yellow color idea, planning blue for 105 dagger and yellow for astray)
why would the ginn be too old? if anything, i feel like the ginn would be perfect. specially if you kitbash it with other suits. like the arms and legs from something like a zaku or gouf or even go with stuff from zaft gundams, like the dreadnaught, savior or even the impulse.
@@marcosdheleno no old as in technologically inferior to the m1 and 105 dagger
Thats what i meant
@@a.p.studios8713 but that's the beauty of custom units.
and because seed is not like other universes, the gin is still a capable machine, even when faced against the daggers and the astrays, because neither has PS.
on the contrary, the ginn is actually more dangerous, because it doesnt use beam weaponry, since the daggers have nanolaminate coat.
also, the high mobility ginn, is basically a green version of the ginn.
and im pretty sure there are some ktis for the armored ginn(forgot its name) which is basically what you want to do.
@@marcosdheleno actually
You have a point
The 105 and m1 both dont have phase shift armor
Meaning that beam or not they are still weak to ballistic weaponry
Im gonna stick to the cgue hg (for aesthetic), paint in johnny ridden color or something (red and black go really good together), and arm it with missiles/gatlings
Thx!
@@a.p.studios8713 the cgue is a good choice, since it was made as a commander unit.
there is also, the ginn high maneuver type 2. which also comes with a cool shield and the katana(but the cgue has the gattling composite shield)
Oof 2005 called, they want their stickers back
Another beautiful gundam from Seed. This looks even alot better if you see it in person. The Master Grade will be epic
I'm confident that Bandai doesn't care about the stickers. I think their viewpoint is that stickers are for newbies, and that everyone else will use Gundam markers to make it color accurate.
on one hand they've made the stripes into stickers to keep the plastic mold simpler but on the other hand they gave us an option not to put them on for those who hate the white gopnik stripe design so I guess it's a win-win situation?
The same can be said about the sticker situation on the SD Rising Freedom. Its quite a lot for an SD kit
1 minute gang
Please review the hgce strike freedom Mecha Gaikotsu. I have the dx version and I want to see your opinion on the hgce SF
In kit form (amd that figure especially) the design is definitely growing on me.
I see some Freedom x Destiny x Guaiz? x even some Wing in this thing (when the wings were off lol)
Also... *pulls out the OG Freedom
Good god, they were that "bad" back then?
*remembers I built the OG Aile Strike and Providence
Goddam! They WERE that "bad" back then 😂 looks like a chibi no-grade beside the Revive
See, I see this kit and all I want from it is to take the backpack and slap it on some other parts and give it the Zeta legs or the Wing Zero's legs or the DX's legs with the Airmaster's feet to make my ideal MS. This essentially has the Re-GZ Kai's transformation and that's exactly what I was looking for to complete my build. Long story short, I'm getting a copy for myself.
I didn't like it initially, but when I saw the gunplas, I'm starting to like it. Maybe I'll consider it. Afterall, if I buy rising freedom, I must also buy the Immortal Justice LMAO.
I decided to pre-order for Mighty Strike Freedom for now. And maybe IJ type 2 as well.
Built it today, i didn't had problems with the wing stickers
30:39 31:42 You're supposed to drop the plasma cannons even further by rotating its base inward towards the head along the axis of the wings, so that the cannon's hinges are on the side rather than lying flat like you demonstrated. That's why the cannons look weird in the video, instead of how it looks in the manual. Also noting that you made the exact same mistake with the HGCE Freedom Gundam review a while back.
I CAN'T WAIT for mine and the others I pre-ordered. Totally expecting a Master Grade version soon :))
I hope we get the Lightning Buster and Duel Blitz Gundam in HGCE form. This will open up the door for the regular Buster and Duel Gundam. (Still waiting on a HGCE Aegis)
I keep going backwards and forwards on whether or not to get this. Freedom (and the strike gundam) have always been my favorite of the SEED designs but do I need this and Mighty Strike Freedom?
...
I'm getting both arent I?
I would prefer the kit wothout stickers as well. it looks closer to the OG Freedom. with the white stickers for some reason it makes me feel like some sort of a police gundam. lol. but without it, just the black and blue on those wings, you would instantly know that it's the Freedom.
So... if you put the backpack on another gundam then it can transform too right?
i rewatch seed & still goosebump, damn i got best chilhood ❤
Another problem that would’ve happened if the wings were fully color separated. It would’ve made the back way too heavy. I know most people don’t pose their freedoms on the ground anyway but as a kit that doesn’t come with a stand, it’s nice that this can stand on its own.
I mean hell, look at the pg strike freedom. That kit has stickers on the dragoons for the very same reason. It would’ve been too heavy.
Really tempted to get this... though I'm more of a Athrun-kind of person.
Definitely tempted to get
Mecha Gaikotsu though I wouldn't notice that Ouija board in the intro
hes probably talking to the RG Sinanju the Satan of gunpla looseness
Forever kicking myself on when I could have pre ordered this kit!🎉
i doubt this kit will be limited edition. specially with how high the movie is flying in japan.
The product quality is insane for a High Grade
Beautiful MS but too many stickers and dumb transformation. I will pass on that.
I hope we will get some REGULAR kits from Requiem for Vengeance
I cant understand why they cannot make color eye separation on 144s a standard? Before i thought, ok, maybe they were too small because even MGs, not all have them either, then we had entry grades, some units for witch from mercury. I mean they CAN do it after all
I don't like the shoulders, could you swap its shoulders with the ones of the hgce strike freedom to see how it looks?
I'm both excited to see the freedom movie and to eventually get this kit. But also disappointed that the mighty strike freedom replaces this amazing version of the freedom, I'm Mainly disappointed because the mighty strike freedom is just the strike freedom with different wings, different shoulders and a katana while this looks like a combination of the Destiny and the freedom with a great color scheme.
I'm new to gundam collection and want my first gunpla to be a freedom because I just like it so much but all the ones I've seen they seem to have so many issues I want a good one😢 that's not rising 😅
Waiting for Mighty Strike Freedom Gundam
