I thought people stopped doing this once they revealed how shit this game and the company running it are. I know they pay a lot of money so i can't blame you for taking the deal
Ive kinda taken up my dad's hobby, I remember when I was just a little kid watching my father build gundams, I remember watching him build the red zaku as well as most of the 00 Raiser, but i never saw him finish it, sadly he got really busy and hasnt been able to work on kits in a while, ive explored our basement a few times and found quite a bit of unbuilt gundams, but also actually found his unfinished Raiser, I asked him about it and he gladly let me finish it, im honestly really sad that he hasnt gotten to work on any in a while, his most recent kit being a year or so ago when I got into gundam after all these years and he built the MG Sazabi Ver.Ka, he told me about all the gundam's i broke when I was little and it hurt me lel, thinking about all the hard work my tiny self destroyed unknowingly
in my own experience, the seven sword can actually hold the buster sword nicely with two hands and do some poses, which is way better than astray red frame kai. but then I accidentally destroyed it when dipping it in solvent to remove the paint, which I turned into a diorama mimicking the wrecked 00 in the ending, and just left it at my brother's shop. and somehow someone actually want to buy it and surprisingly paid enough for me to get an XN Raiser.............
If you're removing paint it's often safer to wipe it with the solvent on a towel instead. Don't submerge the actual part because they melt (as I see you clearly found out XD). That's nice it worked out though :)
Just like before aile strike ver rm, they release the duel,buster,aegis and blitz before we get the ver. Rm hopefully bandai do the exia ver 2.0 since we get the new gn frame in dynames and kyrios
THERE IS A MAJOR AND MASSIVE EMERGENCY TAKING PLACE IN THE USA RIGHT NOW A LARGE AREA NEEDS TO BE EVACUATED ASAP but before we get to the details lets hear a message from out sponser: RAID shadow legends
Welcome to the 6th episode of this series in which I explain why all video games are bad, but before we start, a word from our sponsor: Raid shadow legends
@@KiroRedYork25 Mine is fine the only thing that falls apart is the side skirt holster thingies for the swords with the swords equiped they like to fall apart but other than that mine is completely fine but i have heard from others theirs isnt so good and even has problems standing which i have never experienced
Since I own the regular MG Exia, for sure it has the same build quality of the ignition mode. If you want to buy and build either of these kits, I advice you glue some of the small and unnecessary parts so that it would give you less headaches when posing. These kits are NOT meant to be played with (constantly swapping out weapons) because the pegs in the hand/manipulators will become loose overtime. After building either of these kits, just give it a fixed pose and place it on your shelf. The kit's design is very good nonetheless.
Honestly, of I want an MG Exia Repair I, I'll just buy the 3rd party one where I can train & experiment with my painting, weathering & chipping skill. I mean, Exia Repair I is supposed to be a broken Gundam that barely works anyway. Buying the much cheaper knock off is kinda fitting.
@@MechaGaikotsu Get it airbourne, it can BARELY stand with all that extra gunk on it. Sad part is that the HG 1/100 kits are so much better for the entire Exia series and you can even swap the parts around from the MG's to make them look better
I know this might be a little late, but after building the MG Amazing Exia, it looks like Bandai fixed the issues with the original Exia. Even with the backpack and weapons attached it can stand without issues. The joints are tight OOB and can hold the weapons.
I must’ve gotten insanely lucky. The MG Ignition Mode Exia was my first ever gunpla and it went together with the only issue being a dangly beam sword handle on the right shoulder. I finished it last week and I’m still trying to decide if I’m going to convert him to the destroyed version.
Gah I would love to see you review the OO XN Raiser! I've been drooling over that kit since I saw it and would love to hear your complete thoughts on it!
I appreciate the work and effort put into the video, I think I will hold off until they do a 2.0 of the Exia. As you said in the video, Dynames and Kyrios are from season one, here's hoping they dont stop with Dyanmes and Kyrios and give us a fully loaded Virtue/Nadleeh Gundam.
The Exia is freaking sick, easily my favorite mobile suit. honestly I enjoy the sizes for MGs more then PGs (even though the PG is easily the better kit in every way. Lol) MGs are just the right size imo.
I just wish I know if Bandai ever plans to release an Exia 2.0 to keep up with Dynames and now Kyrios. And with Virtue in the background of the Kyrios box artwork, you KNOW it’s coming. Just like Kyrios was in the background of Dynames’ box artwork. :)
I've built the Exia four times now across the different variations made available and not a single one has been bad. They're all still holding the same poses and such, no loose parts, nothing falling off.
@@ChrisTian-sd5yq I've found that the older the molds get if they're using the same ones, they tend to wear somewhat. My PG MKII Titans ver required extensive sanding on some parts to get them to fit because the parts were warped slightly. You could tell it was from the molds as the runners had much the same slight warping. So while all my Exias are holding up, new releases of it are probably suffering issues from the molds aging.
Nice! I've yet to see anyone else with the MG Gundam OO XN-Raiser except me. Expensive and very back heavy but it's so worth it when you see the finished product. 🤩 Kinda like when I finished my MG-E Unicorn Gundam. That led strip had me sweating till it was installed. And so many decals, they're the bane of my building existence. 😐
I'm still going for Exia because I want to complete my Season 1 Celestial Being kits., it gets hate for being floppy yet if your a fan, despite the negatives, you will still love it on your shelf.
I haven't had a kit for like... close to 20 years? And when I saw the 00 XN Raiser I was just blown away and bought it... it's now making me build Gundams again... also just bought the Full Saber!
Don't worry boys, MG Kyrios for sure will have the same build quality as Dynames since the inner-frame and plastic used will be the same. I heard it even has a new latching system for its flight form compared to its 1/100 counterpart which was not so good (I have the kit). It will have more surface details, better proportions and more parts separation.
U know I'm late on the party but I'm building this kit currently, oh boy! what a legend of a kit!! Love these builds because they feel like they go on and on!
i built the gundam 00 7 swords for my first gunpla and it was hard i should have started with the small gunpla but my gundam looks sick and just looking at it makes me proud for some reason
Love the 00 Raiser to bits, but when I was building it, both elbows crumbled to pieces. Luckily enough though, I managed to glue them back together, but it's loose...
if you notice it, the left cheek of exia is actually a little slight off to the outer side of the head. of course it is hardly noticable, but if you are the one who assembled it, you will see. i just realized it after i built my avalanche exia's head.

@@MechaGaikotsu You realize that Raid make their money through whales and gambling addicts through their loot monetization system, right? And that the reason they sponsor you is that they know they can make more back from your audience than what they're paying you. Is this something you're honestly comfortable with? Because this is only going to grow increasingly more toxic for you. While I'm sure a few thousand euro is a godsend right now, I'm not sure you want to get stuck in a hole where you're dependent on these sorts of sponsors long-term. The Raid money train won't last forever.
Just built the Exia (blue bandai) logo cause I love the way it looks. GET A STAND!!! I got one and the ankles are clearly the biggest issue. Glued down the clear green parts on the legs as they were a bit loose for me (cannot see the glue). Also the circle parts that pop out to hold the swords are a bit flimsy so I didn't bother using it to hold them. Also crappy old MG hands so be careful when weapon swapping as over time they go bad. Other than that the kit is amazing and is one of my fav MG kits I have built, which I was very surprised as I heard alot of bad things. Will probably end up collecting the rest of these since I loved the worst rated one lmao, Exia is a great kit if u are willing to give it a bit of love in the form of glue lol.
I was building one of those Quanta 00 MGs about two years ago. I spent an hour putting the hand together, polishing off the stub marks, panel-lining the fingers, etc.. I start working on the next arm, when the index finger just falls off the hand. So, I take a closer look, and I see what looks like a small seem slowly split down the panel-line of the palm of the hand, and it spreads down the connected panel-lines. So, yeah, I watched the palm of the hand slowly crumble over the course of 15 seconds.
@@adev7760, my assumption was that I was too rough while handling it. So, I figured I should do a few more HGs before touching another MG. Whatever the cause, it's still a horrifying thing to watch.
6:09 You've set everything up, you were ready for everything for that one report Then all of a sudden you've had a brain fart and completely forgot the things you were about to say
Recently got MG Exia Ignition Mode, and they either fixed it all or I got a really good kit. No issues at all with joints, holding weapons or holding poses! Now I need another to use the repair kit on...
4:53 i can safely say that as far as old kits, the RX-79[G] Ground Gundam, despite how much of a pain in the ass the legs were to put together, is built like a brick shithouse. If it came with extra pairs of hands for holding the weapons instead of relying on the poseable hands to hold everything [ which is my one major gripe about this kit], it would be much better. The joints are nice and tight and it holds even my AGE-- Magnum's behemoth of a gun fairly well, something the magnum can't do itself but i attribute that to the screws in the ground gundam's shoulders. It's my favorite grunt suit and i'd snatch up a 2.0 in a heartbeat if they ever release one for it.
I know you did this in anticipation of the MG Kyrios and, inevitably, Virtue/Nadleeh; but I hope you can do this again this time for their RG counterparts.
All this time, I was mad confused because the amount of swords in this kit didn’t add up as per the name of the kit, until you pointed out: G = gun 00 Gundam Seven Swords *G* _It wasn’t a sword with a gun, it was a gun with a sword. It makes so much fucking sense now, thank you_
Love this video. It’s very helpful. I am going under the assumption that once they release the rest of the season 1 suits they’ll finish it off with an exia 2.0.
hmmm good to know, currently cleaning / re-panel lining and topcoating my sazabi ver.ka was gone do my 00 raiser next but might just order the XN to replace it (it was my first mastergrade i made some whoopsy's with it arm loves to come off for example)
I had been waiting hehehehe Please do a full XN Raiser review! It needs to meet my 00 Raiser, which actually was my first ever MG. as a fellow 00 Raiser builder, I gotta thank you for the love. #Gandamuuuuuuu!
@@DarkROSkull013 well think about it. Exia was kicking ass during the 5 year time skip with no proper maintenance and with 1 arm and absolutely zero support. The 00 line required constant upgrades to keep up with the enemy and couldn't even go through the final battle having started in top condition from the get-go and allegedly twice the output with the second GN drive which SHOULD have given it a proper edge in the battle no matter how many foes were sent its way at once. The fully restored Exia was the clutch that won the battle and survived with minimal damage that was centered mainly around the cockpit. Essentially, setsuna was stuck with mobile suits that had inferior durability and, given the relative feats between the two, inferior overall capability despite the alleged gap in power output. Despite everything, Exia proved to be the superior mobile suit.
@@killer13324 Exia did kick other MS during the 5 year skip. That is a feat in itself. However, by the final battle, it wasn't up against a superior suit, it was up against the oldest MS from CB. Both OO and Reborns wrecked each other. I don't think Exia is the superior suit; but I think you raised valid points.
Between all the OO gundam kits, the seven sword is the only one That I can pose without a stand. That's a big plus in my book compared to the others. And you can pose on the ground with the buster sword or gun and he will still stand.
My 00 Raiser was a hand grenade. Shoulder parts and the Raiser itself would fall off if you looked at them funny and at the time I didn't have a stand so getting it to stand up on it's own was a matter of balancing it on the Raiser without the Raiser popping off. Been meaning to revisit the 00 Gundam in general but I am wary.
Do you actually have a Gundam 00 XN Raiser review? Cause I can't find it. (Awesome video btw, and I think the more recent "Repair parts Exia" is an updated/2.0 version)
I have the Qan[T] in my back log from one of your best gunpla of the year videos :p I might get the exia mg just to get the full season 1 team(assuming the virtue is on its way).
My favorite version of the MG Exia is the Dark Matter by far. It just looks so cool, has colored clear plastic for the eyes/head part and fixes some of the issues that the OG Exia had.
Thanks for this video. I somehow agree with your ranking. I own the regular MG Exia and even if it looks good as a kit, it has some loose parts. I did tighten them up and now it is alright but still, I hope that Bandai will release an Exia 2.0 because the current MG isn't capable of doing some Anime-Exia poses. The manipulators/hands of the kit are just not good enough, the LED that passes through in front looks like a joke compared to Dynames' GN Drive, articulation is not the best, and it has weak joints. There is really a need for the 2.0 especially when you want to collect the first generation kits of gundam 00. The 00 and 00Q in the video are better kits, but I still hope that in the future, they will get their 2.0 counterparts as well. It may be a long shot and will require a lot of work but it will be worth-it for sure.
I've seen Sword Strike, Astaroth, Fenice, and No-Name. Frankly, I also got an HG 00 7SG. But honestly it looks really awkward with that huge sword, it gives a weird unbalance feel to the side. It can only be help if the Gun was also mounted on the right. . Definitely would go with the other 00 versions if I'm planning to get an MG.
19:34 there's actually 3 versions of the mg exia. You forgot about avalanche exia / avalanche exia ~ EDIT although the extra parts from the avalanche are a little bit clunky, it does add some nice bulk to the exia if there's what you like
I quite like the bulk distribution of the Avalanche compared to any of the 00 and its variants. 00 is just super top-heavy with so many swords and stuff while its legs are all skinny. Avalanche distributes it better. BUT its uses MG Exia as its base so extra weight for those ankles is pretty much a disaster. You can use the Avalanches parts to hold it up a bit more but still...
This reassures me so much because I'm new to gunpla and I always fuck up the stickers so all I do is put it together and I bought the 00 QuanT and I want to buy the 00 Raiser which are #1 and #2
Thanks to this video i can finally differentiate exia, 00,and qan[t], i still havent watched the anime so idk wtf am i looking at, i do however have the hg 00 raiser + gn sword iii
I built the Exia the other day and while I don’t have nearly as much disdain for it as most people, I definitely think it could use an update. It’s age shows a lot through its lack of stability and omnipresent mild jank

@@TheYoungMindz I thank you lol
in my own experience, the seven sword can actually hold the buster sword nicely with two hands and do some poses, which is way better than astray red frame kai.

and somehow someone actually want to buy it and surprisingly paid enough for me to get an XN Raiser.............
If you're removing paint it's often safer to wipe it with the solvent on a towel instead. Don't submerge the actual part because they melt (as I see you clearly found out XD). That's nice it worked out though :)

thank a lot
I appreciate the work and effort put into the video, I think I will hold off until they do a 2.0 of the Exia. As you said in the video, Dynames and Kyrios are from season one, here's hoping they dont stop with Dyanmes and Kyrios and give us a fully loaded Virtue/Nadleeh Gundam.
FINALLY I knew I wasnt crazy about the exia MG. Just go with the perfect grade if you REALLY want an exia, its perfect
The Exia is freaking sick, easily my favorite mobile suit. honestly I enjoy the sizes for MGs more then PGs (even though the PG is easily the better kit in every way. Lol) MGs are just the right size imo.
W Barbour I’d honestly recommend the RG, it has everything the MG has but it’s 100% improved.
Couldn't agree more! 00 Raiser totally got me addicted to gunpla
Hoping Bandai would make other S2 MG kits🙏
what got me started was the HG shining break. While i was waiting on my real grade exia.
HG 00 Seven Sword/G got me into this plastic crack. Until now, the main MS is still my favorite among the stuff I've built.
I always enjoy watching your gundam reviews! Keep doing what you're doing! Wishing more subscribers to your channel!
Thanks man!
I just wish I know if Bandai ever plans to release an Exia 2.0 to keep up with Dynames and now Kyrios. And with Virtue in the background of the Kyrios box artwork, you KNOW it’s coming. Just like Kyrios was in the background of Dynames’ box artwork. :)
To me, Virtue having Kyrios in the background is Bandai saying, "don't hold your breath".

I want to get the MG Exia so bad, but I don't want to get one and then the 2.0 comes out!
Same. Maybe I'll go with the Exia Ignition and set it in Repair mode since the Exia 2.0 repair will definitely be pbandai.

Thanks so much for this review. I needed a new Exia replacement and now I know what to buy. Old Exia looks awful with the rest of the MGs on its team.
The Exia isn't really that bad. I think they improved the plastic since it was first released.
nope, after building astraea type f
Im'a save up for kyrios...then get one of these kits that isn't Exia
If Kyrios turns out half as amazing as Dynames ill be incredibly happy, and given theyre using the same inner frame.....

Will probably end up collecting the rest of these since I loved the worst rated one lmao, Exia is a great kit if u are willing to give it a bit of love in the form of glue lol.
I was building one of those Quanta 00 MGs about two years ago. I spent an hour putting the hand together, polishing off the stub marks, panel-lining the fingers, etc.. I start working on the next arm, when the index finger just falls off the hand. So, I take a closer look, and I see what looks like a small seem slowly split down the panel-line of the palm of the hand, and it spreads down the connected panel-lines. So, yeah, I watched the palm of the hand slowly crumble over the course of 15 seconds.
You must've built/handled it wrongly.
@@adev7760, my assumption was that I was too rough while handling it. So, I figured I should do a few more HGs before touching another MG. Whatever the cause, it's still a horrifying thing to watch.
@@FranciscoTChavez iirc, it happened to me once with a unicorn kit, cementing/gluing the pegs together helps.

You've set everything up, you were ready for everything for that one report
Then all of a sudden you've had a brain fart and completely forgot the things you were about to say
The 00 Raiser comes with an led unit but with no batteries
I picked up the XN Raiser earlier this year, and I absolutely loved building it. I love the look of the 00, so I had to get it when I saw it.
Recently got MG Exia Ignition Mode, and they either fixed it all or I got a really good kit. No issues at all with joints, holding weapons or holding poses! Now I need another to use the repair kit on...
They got you too with Raid Shadow
Exia was my first MG. before, i only build sd and 1/144 kits but beacuse of this kit i got hooked collecting MG kits.
After watching 00 season 2 eng dub, Mecha's Setsuna impression is painful
same 00 7 sword was the gundam who made me loved it even more
4:53 i can safely say that as far as old kits, the RX-79[G] Ground Gundam, despite how much of a pain in the ass the legs were to put together, is built like a brick shithouse. If it came with extra pairs of hands for holding the weapons instead of relying on the poseable hands to hold everything [ which is my one major gripe about this kit], it would be much better. The joints are nice and tight and it holds even my AGE-- Magnum's behemoth of a gun fairly well, something the magnum can't do itself but i attribute that to the screws in the ground gundam's shoulders. It's my favorite grunt suit and i'd snatch up a 2.0 in a heartbeat if they ever release one for it.
I have heard that they made the reissues of mg exia with the blue bandai logo have better plastic quality and hold up itself properly
Ye I’ve got a Mg exia repair, thank for it was the new/fixed one where the negatives are fixed. No doubts about buying that one
Take that gundam scale
I know you did this in anticipation of the MG Kyrios and, inevitably, Virtue/Nadleeh; but I hope you can do this again this time for their RG counterparts.
We don’t know if we’re gonna get RGs of those, I’d be surprised if we got any of them any time soon.
The simple answer to this question. If you have the money and space, just get all of them.
All this time, I was mad confused because the amount of swords in this kit didn’t add up as per the name of the kit, until you pointed out: G = gun
00 Gundam Seven Swords *G*
_It wasn’t a sword with a gun, it was a gun with a sword. It makes so much fucking sense now, thank you_
Love this video. It’s very helpful.
I am going under the assumption that once they release the rest of the season 1 suits they’ll finish it off with an exia 2.0.
I hope they start the Season 2 suits right away, I want my Cherudim SAGA MG.
hmmm good to know, currently cleaning / re-panel lining and topcoating my sazabi ver.ka was gone do my 00 raiser next but might just order the XN to replace it (it was my first mastergrade i made some whoopsy's with it arm loves to come off for example)
I had been waiting hehehehe
Please do a full XN Raiser review! It needs to meet my 00 Raiser, which actually was my first ever MG.
as a fellow 00 Raiser builder, I gotta thank you for the love.
#Gandamuuuuuuu!
Great video gunpla’s awesome!
I have all. In trans am. I also just got Dynames in trans am. Can't wait to build it.
I totally agree with you. 00 (XN) Raiser would have to be my favorite Setsuna suit. Follow closely by Qan(t)/Full Saber. Love me some Gundam 00. :D
bruh, you shattered my eardrums at 2:28. Great vid though.
I’ll go with the Quanta full saber. Might as well go with the best version of the final upgraded suit of a main protagonist
the exia repair 2 was the best. Setsuna settled for the 00 and everything that came with it when Exia wound up being the superior suit.
I agree with you. Lore wise, this was the best he got, so might as well get it. Although for me, it would be the OO XN raiser.
@@killer13324 How? I always rooted for OO, but I'd like to hear your thoughts :).
@@DarkROSkull013 well think about it. Exia was kicking ass during the 5 year time skip with no proper maintenance and with 1 arm and absolutely zero support. The 00 line required constant upgrades to keep up with the enemy and couldn't even go through the final battle having started in top condition from the get-go and allegedly twice the output with the second GN drive which SHOULD have given it a proper edge in the battle no matter how many foes were sent its way at once.
The fully restored Exia was the clutch that won the battle and survived with minimal damage that was centered mainly around the cockpit.
Essentially, setsuna was stuck with mobile suits that had inferior durability and, given the relative feats between the two, inferior overall capability despite the alleged gap in power output.
Despite everything, Exia proved to be the superior mobile suit.
@@killer13324 Exia did kick other MS during the 5 year skip. That is a feat in itself. However, by the final battle, it wasn't up against a superior suit, it was up against the oldest MS from CB. Both OO and Reborns wrecked each other. I don't think Exia is the superior suit; but I think you raised valid points.
The Gundam shout startled me.
i'd say 2005 would be a better cut off point, as the 2.0's started then, with the gundam mk 2 which is a great kit
Between all the OO gundam kits, the seven sword is the only one That I can pose without a stand. That's a big plus in my book compared to the others. And you can pose on the ground with the buster sword or gun and he will still stand.
The best MG is MG Exia 2.0
I got the 00 XN Raiser when it came out, and god did it feel like the build that would never end.
My 00 Raiser was a hand grenade. Shoulder parts and the Raiser itself would fall off if you looked at them funny and at the time I didn't have a stand so getting it to stand up on it's own was a matter of balancing it on the Raiser without the Raiser popping off. Been meaning to revisit the 00 Gundam in general but I am wary.
Basically if you combine all of those oo gundam you get the metal robot spirits gundam oo + 7 swords + raiser + xn unit but in mastergrade
Do you actually have a Gundam 00 XN Raiser review?
Cause I can't find it.
(Awesome video btw, and I think the more recent "Repair parts Exia" is an updated/2.0 version)
I have the Qan[T] in my back log from one of your best gunpla of the year videos :p
I might get the exia mg just to get the full season 1 team(assuming the virtue is on its way).
I NEED A MG EXIA 2.0!
The GUNDAM!! meter got dying 🤣😆
My favorite version of the MG Exia is the Dark Matter by far. It just looks so cool, has colored clear plastic for the eyes/head part and fixes some of the issues that the OG Exia had.
And the two awesome awesome fire and ice blades... Ooh lala
Adam Evangelion Exactly. You know what's up. It's just so badass.
Thanks for this video. I somehow agree with your ranking. I own the regular MG Exia and even if it looks good as a kit, it has some loose parts. I did tighten them up and now it is alright but still, I hope that Bandai will release an Exia 2.0 because the current MG isn't capable of doing some Anime-Exia poses. The manipulators/hands of the kit are just not good enough, the LED that passes through in front looks like a joke compared to Dynames' GN Drive, articulation is not the best, and it has weak joints. There is really a need for the 2.0 especially when you want to collect the first generation kits of gundam 00. The 00 and 00Q in the video are better kits, but I still hope that in the future, they will get their 2.0 counterparts as well. It may be a long shot and will require a lot of work but it will be worth-it for sure.
Built a MG exia and what can i say gaikotsu u were 100% right it needs alot of work
Just the video I needed
I've seen Sword Strike, Astaroth, Fenice, and No-Name.
Frankly, I also got an HG 00 7SG. But honestly it looks really awkward with that huge sword, it gives a weird unbalance feel to the side.
It can only be help if the Gun was also mounted on the right.
.
Definitely would go with the other 00 versions if I'm planning to get an MG.
I think Exia is the best looking design, its simple yet so cool at the same time
19:34 there's actually 3 versions of the mg exia. You forgot about avalanche exia / avalanche exia ~
EDIT
although the extra parts from the avalanche are a little bit clunky, it does add some nice bulk to the exia if there's what you like
which likely still use the same base mobile suit and inherit the same problems.
I quite like the bulk distribution of the Avalanche compared to any of the 00 and its variants. 00 is just super top-heavy with so many swords and stuff while its legs are all skinny. Avalanche distributes it better.
BUT its uses MG Exia as its base so extra weight for those ankles is pretty much a disaster. You can use the Avalanches parts to hold it up a bit more but still...
To be honest i have my mg exia for about 2 years now and it still holds up
I love the Seven Sword but just for the gun. I hope it can be bought separately and get the 00 Raiser.
I'm having nightmare flashbacks to the master grade commercials in the Gundam info 00 playlist
I'm torn between the RG 00 Raiser and the MG 00 Raiser, I don't know which one to get.
MG
This reassures me so much because I'm new to gunpla and I always fuck up the stickers so all I do is put it together and I bought the 00 QuanT and I want to buy the 00 Raiser which are #1 and #2
Thank you for the review
The MG 00 Quanta FS is actually my 2nd gunpla ive ever built as well as my first MG
Raid commercial on a Gundam channel...where's the SD Gundam G Generation Cross Rays ad? You gotta get that Gundam sponsorship!!!
Amazing review
I got a banshee kit from around 2010 and it was like glass. The horn just shattered in my hands and i split the skirt and it just shattered
Thanks to this video i can finally differentiate exia, 00,and qan[t], i still havent watched the anime so idk wtf am i looking at, i do however have the hg 00 raiser + gn sword iii
6:30 i see that sandrock custom,when are you going to review it
Titis Wulandari I just saw it in the bottom right corner, I’ll be waiting...
@@flavourflavouredflavour1211 he finish building it a while ago i seen it on instagram
I built the Exia the other day and while I don’t have nearly as much disdain for it as most people, I definitely think it could use an update. It’s age shows a lot through its lack of stability and omnipresent mild jank
