For those who want a little backstory for the F2 variation, Fon's Astraea Gundam type F has deteriorating and rusted parts and "somehow" he acquired the Exia's spare parts and turned his Astraea into the F2, same story with the Avalanche Astraea, "somehow" he also found the Avalanche parts.
F2 was upgraded with the spare parts from Exia after Celestial Being lost. They raided whatever storage asteroids they could to stock up. The Avalanche Dash units Fon stole after he parted from the support group. They even comment that he got to them before they did
Fereshte found a storehouse with spare Exia parts, so they were able swap out parts that were for the Exia since it used the same frame. Fon found the storehouse for the parts for the Avalanche Exia and forcibly grafted them to the Astraea F. I believe Fon had to jettison the Avalanche parts at some point so he is back to piloting a recolored Black Astraea.
@@charlottela2491 00F happens at the same time as the main series. Ends kinda before season 2 because the Astraea drive was returned for the 00, at that point it continues with Fon in 00I
The Astraea Type F is a really cool MS in OO side stories where during the time of the armed interventions, Astraea Type F and the rest of the 2nd generation Gundams would be used by Celestial Being's black ops team, Fereshte. Like what was done before Celestial being was revealed to the world, given the order to kill everything that sees them and leave no witnesses. Its main pilot is Fon Spaak, one of Celestial Being's criminal meisters who are in hancuffs and an explosive collar.
@@Dd5yr5g Definitely, the side stories explain why things work the way they do if you have watched the series and expands on it along with cool MS designs
@@douggoins2960 He's a criminal meister no doubt cause of the handcuffs and explosive collar on him. Same thing happened with Feldt's mother who was also a criminal meister where she too had handcuffs and an explosive collar on her neck. He came willingly as well since he found it interesting but found himself under heavy restrictions.
Exactly. We all own eyes and ears. NEVER once in the series was that Gundam EVER referred to as “ JU- NAM- MES”. That’s because that wasn’t it’s name. Spare me the origin story from the Greek. I am aware. That’s what it’s name is BASED on. Not its name. Much like Exia isn’t named exactly from its base. Neither is DIE- NAM- MISS. It is derived from the Greek Dunames. Not directly translated. Mecha is apparently one of those annoying kids that once they learn something, forcefully misapplies it. His name is DIE- NAM- MISS. Don’t worry folks, our ears, brains, and common sense haven’t been wrong all these years. Mecha found out a new thing, now our ears are the victims. He’ll get bored with his new toy soon enough.
Exia (and its variants) are still some of my favourite gundam mech to date. I just wish they'd do a 2.0 version already with the tech from the new 00 MG kits (and then do a remake of the Exia dark matter but like that'll ever happen)
As a person who loves kits which are loaded with accessories and optional parts, this kit with the avalanche unit was a joy to build and pose...just hope bandai releases the other 2 Astreas in the near future As for the loose joints, I think they did do something to make it less annoying, because unlike the MG Exia that I built in like 2012, the waist is not loose and the toes at least don't fall apart by themselves....although it is still not as stable as modern MGs
@@insertnickhere5022 ohhh yeah forgot about the astrea type-x. I actually saw a plastic conversion kit announced a few months ago. not really sure what's going on with it though
Did you know that Astraea can fire off most of his Ranged Weapons at once? GN Beam Rifle in right hand, GN Missile Pods on side of arms/Legs, GN Launcher on Shoulder, NGN Bazooka in the left hand. Hope you can show this in Astraea Avalanche review. Thank you in advance and Thank you for reading.
I waited for two months for this kit to be available and boy it was worth the wait. I have built the older version of Gundam Astraea, a kit that used cheaper parts and less detailed vs this current one. I love building the old one and the new one. Nothing beats the Uniqueness of Prototype weapon systems and of the technically 4 versions of Astraea, I picked the Type F with the mask as it's supposed to hide its identity, and it gives off the prototype look while Type F2 is more of the finished product like Exia.
I love the suit but so far I've hated the kit. Despite multiple tries to fix them the shoulders, leg condenser covers and waist weapon hooks keep falling off. It makes it hard to enjoy a kit when it keeps going to pieces
The 00F manga is what set me off on my Gunpla journey, picking up an HG Exia in 2011 after seeing how cool Type F was in action. To this day I've never actually built one, but this review is making me highly consider stalking P-Bandai for the next release. Only thing I'm slightly saddened by is there's no Fon Spaak mini figure, but that's okay; the mobile suit is beautiful all on its own
The Astraea Type-F is my favorite Gundam from 00, shame that when I got the old HG kit a few years ago, it was missing its left holding hand. So frustrating!
My only complaint about the set after having built one myself, there's no way to mount the Beam Rifle and Proto GN Sword on the same arm like the RG and HG
@@reijigamer eh not a fan of the s2 design. MG Virtue also has the crossdressing Tieria figure even tho it's an s2 thing for some reason. The GNY units can just reuse the majority of the current GN Frame while the s2 suits might need a new one.
I would call the Crossbone the Gundam God of weapons because the Crossbone Gundams have some of the coolest weapons in Gundam history Peacock Smasher Muramasa Blaster Brand Markers Xambuster Shot Lancer Butterfly Buster Skull shaped I-field generators
Have to say, for such an old base, its done a really good job. However being 2022 I am sad that they haven't adapted the other parts so that its a smidge closer to the metal build (moving parts on the shield or connectors for the shield load out on the upper back or skirting) (or the massive swords for the avalanche) But only the whole impressed that they have included more than I'd have thought
This was a rather anticipated review for me. I actually picked one up from Premium Bandai awhile back, and was eager to hear your opinion on whether or not the additions made the kit worth the hassle that typically goes with the Exia frame. Overall, I do not regret my purchase.
The creation of this kit and given how Exia and Dynames are so similar to their predecessors frame wise, I wouldn't be surprised if we see an MG Sadalsuud some time from now. But what I really want is an Exia Ver RM or something
I passed on this when this was reprinted recently as I'm not a big fan of the all red color scheme... it's totally like, "If Char was part of Celestial Being" He would totally have all the toys. Still hoping for an Astraea Type-X MG or MGEX.
Not exactly; straight up red like this is more reminiscent of the Johnny Ridden Zaku II S or Cima's Gerbera Tetra. Char's Zaku, Z'Gok, Gundam (RX78/C.A), & Gelgoog were more of a pink than red. (Sazabi and the other one that goes with the Hi-Nu Gundam, however, those were straight red with some black & gold) And let's not forget his equally outlandish primarily shiny gold Hyaku-shiki.
It's not an If Char joined CB it's an if Accelerator joined CB if you watch a Gundam G Generation video covering Astraea Type F2 the person who voices Accelerator from Toaru voices Fon Spaak he has a similar personality and appearance to Accelerator. The VA is named Nobuhiko Okamoto by the way.
I just bought daban's astraea type f.. if you really love weaponries you wont be disappointed.. i know lots of you doesnt build bootleg gunplas.. it has 8 gn shields so i built it more than a week pretty much pure sanding and test fit😅😅 GN sword is not included but there are 2 avalung sword.. trying some bootlegs Astraea type f didnt disappoint me.. i just love swords
Got daban version long time ago too. Main reason was the colouring difference, I just love those metallic red parts, they give more life to the unit. Only part I might hate r loose legs, might just need tighting up.
@@rellvion9161 true about the color.. had an issue on the thigh part.. 2 gray thing where you could mount the morningstar and blaster.. my main reason for buying it is the weapon its pretty complete 8 shields, 2 avalung swords, 2 GN handguns and etc.. i built it semi tight to stablize the shields when mounted..
@@kiplingin5023 Oh ye, the set of shields and 2 massive swords, they just look amazing when combined. I was going through hell making everything in a way I wanted xd
@@rellvion9161 Yeah.. looks pretty badass to be precise.. working on it was like a piece of art.. i am planning to buy a set of shields and maybe daban's 8816A Astraea GNY-001 white version of Astraea.. it comes with shields and many many weaponries 😅😅
Epic Nice Review, can't wait for the Avalanche Astraea F Type... With this Astraea F Type, plus the MetalBuild Astraea Finnisternis Type- These could have been the prototype of the ESF GN-X Units and their GN-X III AND IV Successors, since the weapon that these Astraeas wield matched the weapons load out of the GN-X
I was hoping for a new frame when Bandai releases the MG Astraea, but they reused the Exia frame. A little disappointment to me. Also, fun fact: Astraea type F is a MS that is produced by Celestial Being. While battling, Fon Spaak use Astrea type F, Sadalsuud type F and Abulhool type F, because there is only 1 GN Drive. Type F means Fereshte, this group is established in order to support Celestial Being.
@@zeryuouros4411 tldr it should’ve been the preview to a master grade exia 2.0. mg exia is like a 10 plus year old kit now and the first 00 frame. Mg dynames got a completely overhauled frame which is basically a new 00 frame. Kyrios also shares the newer frame. Yes astrea and exia are similar but instead of actually fixing the 10 year old exia kit and modernizing it, they basically just rereleased it with extra accessories and different armor but the problems are still the same
I was debating on getting this kit but ultimately decided to get the RG version instead and boy do I really hope it pans out cause this video is making me question if I made the right choice
I would say it's a close second. Need to look into the mg lightning strike ver rm China red. That thing comes with nearly evey single striker pack, weapon and, bazooka
I'm rather disappointed in mine. It's shoulder armor refuses to stay, the leg condenser covers keep falling off, and the waist armor hooks keep falling off and then apart. I've tried multiple times to fix everything but it doesn't work for very long.
The drive is the same drive with an alternate back, so you can build the original drive. The shoulders are included, but the GN cables that go from the shoulders to the arms are not.
Of course I got this and the add on set. Now we just need Bandai to make MG GNY-001 Gundam Astraea . Now if Bandai ends up making an MG 2.0 for GN-001 Gundam Exia, feel like they're going to make an 'Expansion Unit' for the GNY-001 Gundam Astraea and GNY-001F/F2 Gundam Astraea Type F/F2.
Would have been cool if bandai did this back in 2018/19 but instead they let hobby star do it first and repaired all exia problems and slapped a full LED even before the pg exia. Still it looks cool in a way but its definitely not that special anymore.
I ended up buying 3x of this kit. One to build as an Astraea Type F (with most of the weapons on it), one to build as an Astraea F2, and one to build as an Avalanche Astraea. The Exia and Astraea are some of my favorite suits in all of Gundam (sharing first place with the Strike Gundam). This kit is so much fun to build. I almost want them to release a Black Astraea or original Astraea so I can have even more options. I gave one of the NGN Bazookas to one of my GN-Xs. So many accessories! I was never a huge fan of using the LEDs, but I threw two of them in this kit, and it looks cool when they are activated.

Nah Gaikotsu. That Gunpla God Weaponry title has to go to Verka Full Armor Unicorn.

Char would love this red unit.
ive always wanted to ask… what happened to moon gundam? has it become loose? ive always had my doubts about a no polycap build
I've had my Moon Gundam for about a year and a half now, still pretty solid
All brand new from the ground up MGs have no polycaps and the new GN Frames and the MG IBO Frame are certainly better.
I really hoped that we would get an Exia 2.0 based on the new frame first, then the F types.
Wish the F2 parts are usable for the HG
lol MG to HG?
I was debating on getting this kit but ultimately decided to get the RG version instead and boy do I really hope it pans out cause this video is making me question if I made the right choice
lucky you for being able to get at least the RG. For some reason that evades me up to now, I missed out on the MG preorders. I regret my choices.
recently got mine, if you go with RG might as well pick a HG type f for weapons
12:06 “and i kinda want to” hahahahahah
i wish i had a back log. i build all my kits as soon as i get them

naturally, cause it's the strike with all striker packs
I actually feel dumb for missing out on this. I need it now
I think if I got him, I wouldn't keep the kit red, it's a little too flashly
11:19 Dual wielding Proto-GN sword? More like Astraea got a bit of what Grimgerde ate!
I would love if they release a PG of the Astrea or Dynames... but Astrea seems more plausible since much would be "recicled".
I got mine last week, yay
so which one do you prefer, with or without the visor on?
REJECT Astraea
Embrace Exia
Hey is the leg gonna flop a split if put on a glass table for a time like the Exia? Or is it solid like Dynames?
inner frame is 100 percent exia
I'm rather disappointed in mine. It's shoulder armor refuses to stay, the leg condenser covers keep falling off, and the waist armor hooks keep falling off and then apart. I've tried multiple times to fix everything but it doesn't work for very long.
Glue it 😅
Looks like that Invictus War Suit is huge compared to the F2, wow!
Im planning to buy a gunpla what should i buy?
Astraea evolved to Exia by the lore I think
ITS HEREEEEEE
Dang that’s a lot of accessories. Almost rivals RG Full Armor Unicorn.. which is pretty overkill, too
Can the dynames pistols be used on the 144 dynames?
I still don't understand why Bandai insists on using that obnoxious hand design in their modern kits. Seriously that things grip is weak as hell.
Can it use/include the Exias GN drive? As well as it's shoulders? Gn ribbons from Exia included?
The drive is the same drive with an alternate back, so you can build the original drive. The shoulders are included, but the GN cables that go from the shoulders to the arms are not.
Of course I got this and the add on set. Now we just need Bandai to make MG GNY-001 Gundam Astraea
. Now if Bandai ends up making an MG 2.0 for GN-001 Gundam Exia, feel like they're going to make an 'Expansion Unit' for the GNY-001 Gundam Astraea and GNY-001F/F2 Gundam Astraea Type F/F2.

Hi mecha, awesome review! I really want to get a PG Astray Red Frame but I can't find a decent review on it, do you think one day you could make one?
i love this kit
with the crappy exia hands, i wonder of there is a third party to replace those for fixed posed holding hands.
For me the Astraea Type F is the equivalent of UC's Advance of Zeta units. ;D
What’s the Mechadokuro piloting in the intro?
I recently got into gunpla, probably because of targeted advertising but I’m happy to find it nonetheless.
This gundam is piloted by Accelerator.
For now I don't think bandai will make Exia 2.0 or RM. I think it more likely to have MG Gundam Exia ver.Ka just like Wing Zero Custom.
Katoki is not going to be involve in 00 related design
This is cute and all but when's the metal build review coming out?
I just dont really like the brown inner frame…fortunately I am leaving it with the avalanche unit to cover most of the frame
isn't the proto rifle can be equipped with the proto gn sword?
nope only in RG
I wonder what rank he would give a MG Exia Repair II and III when he gets those 2.
Just get the R III, only selling point of R II is the new GN sword kai
Would have been cool if bandai did this back in 2018/19 but instead they let hobby star do it first and repaired all exia problems and slapped a full LED even before the pg exia. Still it looks cool in a way but its definitely not that special anymore.
what battery do i need for this led?
wheres da articulation the fly was damn funny XDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
Put tactical arms on its backpack.....bye choosing just put all the weapon together🤣
I ended up buying 3x of this kit. One to build as an Astraea Type F (with most of the weapons on it), one to build as an Astraea F2, and one to build as an Avalanche Astraea. The Exia and Astraea are some of my favorite suits in all of Gundam (sharing first place with the Strike Gundam). This kit is so much fun to build. I almost want them to release a Black Astraea or original Astraea so I can have even more options. I gave one of the NGN Bazookas to one of my GN-Xs. So many accessories!
I was never a huge fan of using the LEDs, but I threw two of them in this kit, and it looks cool when they are activated.
ended buying 4 thinking I can build Exia OOB
It looks kind of like big hero 6
