No matter how boring people say your review is, I find that yours is the most informative. I always check your videos whenever i want to actually LEARN the kit.
Heck, Why stop at MG 2.0? God Gundam Deserves a PG by now, ever Since I fought One that Tag Teamed with a PG Master Gundam in Gundam Breaker 3, I’ve just wanted one so badly
I love the way the recent rg kits have done away with the pre molded inner frames. I really enjoy building them up instead. They look and hold up way better! The pre molded parts gimmick is not what I look for in rg kits. It's an interesting thing if used sparingly and done well. But not necessary for my enjoyment of this line of gunpla.
@@xnflg3074 The more recent rg, I think cross bone and on, no longer had the pre molded inner frames and have a more traditionaly built inner frame like most mg kits.
The pre-molded inner frame older RGs had was such a cool idea in theory and it's what got me into RGs initially. But yeah, if that idea came at the expense of the kit's longevity I'd rather take what we have now. Even if I don't often change the poses of my gunpla (I'd like to but my shelf is cramped and it's a pain to take kits out when I feel like it), having them loosen up over time means that sometimes they can't even stand up without help and I'd rather not have that. I'd definitely welcome the pre-molded inner frames back though if Bandai ends up refining them to a point where they're as sturdy as normal inner frames. Speaking of them coming back though, that makes me curious about how the PG Unleashed RX-78 holds up now compared to when it was released. With it being a PG, it's even more important for it to be sturdier due to it's weight.
Completely agreed. With the state that the MS Joint was in, the less pre-molded inner frames, the better. I got the RG Exia and its leg was sagging pretty much out of the box, and my RG 00 Raiser couldn't even stand up straight with the 0-Raiser attached until I tightened up the hip. With modern RGs and their MG-styled inner frames, these issues are pretty much non-existent, but there was definitely something really cool about the old full MS Joints. I definitely prefer the state that RGs are in right now, but if Bandai were to improve the molding process so that they don't wear down nearly as quickly, I wouldn't mind seeing the old classic-style MS Joint come back for a kit or two. Or even just reissue older RGs with the improved molding process.
I'll never understand why they don't put waterslides in RG kits. I'd pay extra if they just included them. The recent RG kits have been fantastic with all the detail but damn those stickers.
Yeah, more value for money. I bought RG Sazabi when it came out and RG Freedom along with it, so I got both at the same time. I built them at the same month. I don't pose them much often, the RG Sazabi is still solid to this day whilst RG Freedom is already loose.
This and the most recent RG releases are absolute greats. I'm glad they did away with a complete pre-molded inner frame, although it kinda made the RG line a bit more like a 1/144 MG. IMO the idea behind pre-molded inner frames was great, it just wasn't executed properly. I think they would have worked better if they were molded entirely in ABS or some other kind of plastic (IIRC they were molded partly with ABS and partly with polypropylene, which I think contributed to its tendency to get loose relatively easily)
kinda unfortunate that the Fuunsaiki for the P-Bandai expansion set is just the old HGFC kit that came with the HGFC Master Gundam, kinda wished they gave the horse MS a RG treatment too.
You said it best. The pre molded inner frame was great because it was THE RG gimmick. It’s sad to see it go, but time isn’t merciful to everyone. The RG 00 raiser still holds up as one of the best RGs.
Anyway I think a good mix of both is the best way for RG to continue. If I want to build a MG frame then I’ll go build a MG, I don’t need a 1/144 MG scale
A good idea before placing the stickers is cut the corners with x-acto etc knife first. That way there won't be excess sticker sheet and it almost like dry transfer type. Then clear coat those evenly to cover the whole decal.
@@ZakuAurelius indeed waterslides are thinner than stickers. I remembered trying my Figma K-On Yui on applying waterslide face-expression on a blank faceplate. Looks nicer and cleaner overall.
THIS HAND OF MINE IS BURNING RED! IT'S LOUD ROAR TELLS ME TO GRASP VICTORY! EUROPTING BURNING FINGER! AND NOW HEAT END!!! THAT IS MY BOY! THE KING OF HEARTS! DOMON KASSHUE!!!
Glad they made a version of the God Gundam this beautiful. Can't wait for Bandai to release waterslides for this one and a potential gold plated Hypermode version. For the pre-molded frame I'd prefer if they removed them overall since they tend to get pretty loose over time. The kits without them are a lot sturdier compared to the early ones.
I believe SIMP already has a waterslide decal sheet on the way! 👍 We should have it at USAGS soon. And yes, no doubt there will be a gold plated version!
One of my supplier from china apparently already have water slides for this kit. As it seems, I'm the one who made the first order. I think there were also other stores selling water slides for the kit.
I'm a casual gundam/gunpla fan, but I agree. Based on looks this kit is very appealing to me. Never watched G Gundam but will check out a recap just to see what this gundam is all about. I know it's about martial arts tournament and not a traditional gundam series.
you know, I'm just glad they gave the RG the same rotating gauntlets from HiRM those looked really awkward when it's just locked on the side of the arm
I got lucky in that I never bought one of the older RGs. Sazabi was my first RG, and that thing is every bit of a tiny MG. Plus 2 of the RG Evas so far. But RG God Gundam is on the way. Lots of good reviews. But it will be the first RG I build that actually feels like 1/144 scale, since the Sazabi is such a unit, and the Evas are as tall as MGs.
The God Gundam is my favorite Gundam model and I'm exited for my back-ordered pre-order of t his to be on the way! I might just pay the slight markup to get it shipped from Japan on ebay.
Mine finally came in but no cool packing slip folder or sticker! Heck not even a packed by or a packing sticker. I never asked for these cool free swag items but yall have trained me to expect them...

7 months late, but I'd rather have them get rid of the pre-molded frame completely. The recent RGs have had quite the minimal use of them, and I think it's for the better. The RG Nu's funnels don't quite age greatly, And I'm pretty sure the arms on this one won't too. If they will keep the RG frames, They should be in the less important parts of the suit, or perfect it so it won't age badly. With the recent reveal of RG Epyon, can't quite take my head off the fact that the whip is pre-molded, could put a huge dent in the experience in the long run.
I'm on the fence about what RG I should buy next after I finish the Epyon The Tallgeese The Nu Gundam Or this absolute unit of articulation Any recommendations?
I like that Bandai started including English in their manuals. However I really wish in the future they would release them in full-English. Some areas in the manual are missing translations. Would also be nice to insert English Translation manuals with the re-print kits as well.
I'm planning on getting RG God Gundam but I'm wondering how long does it hold itself from being loose all over the place. Are the pre molded inner frames really that bad after a few months?
No matter how boring people say your review is, I find that yours is the most informative. I always check your videos whenever i want to actually LEARN the kit.
Thanks! I think? Haha 👍
The head sculpt on this is incredible. really hope we get an mg 2.0 that looks like this in the future.
Oh yesss!! The old mg god gundam is so out dated that it makes my dad look younger
I wish they do an RG/MG of Shining Gundam too and the rest of the other gundams from other countries
Heck, Why stop at MG 2.0? God Gundam Deserves a PG by now, ever Since I fought One that Tag Teamed with a PG Master Gundam in Gundam Breaker 3, I’ve just wanted one so badly
A third party company should try upsizing this rg to 1/100
praying to God Gundam that Master and Shining are coming too
and RG Lumber Gundam to lol
Amen
I'm still hoping for tequila gundam
Personally I want to see windmill gundam get the rg treatment it deserves.
@@vali69just imagine the articulation that the windmill Gundam could have. unleashed it's full potential

What is done differently? The only RG I have any experience with is the Qan[T] from 2016 and it's just really frustrating.

@@quintindaman3 from crossbone/unicorn onwards RG kits are insanely good gunpla, I’ve built nearly all of them except hi-nu.

Oh snap it's the katana sabers from the hg mega shiki? That's rad, I wish Bandai used those sabers more.
I'll never understand why they don't put waterslides in RG kits. I'd pay extra if they just included them. The recent RG kits have been fantastic with all the detail but damn those stickers.
Only the P bandai one lmao
amen 🙏 would make this guy even more perfect
They almost always look fine if it's on lighter colors
I don't really care for the pre-molded frame, I'll take a sturdier kit any day. Plus, I like building the whole kit.

Real grade has been getting a ton of bangers recently. Hope they give us MG enjoyers some love this year...
No, next year
Yeah we'll be getting 1/100 YF-19 for 1/100 scale enthusiast
This reminds me…. I got the RG Hi Nu when it released and I STILL haven’t gotten around to building it. It’s still sewed in plastic lmao.
Really good close-up shots in this video; nice to get a good look at the kit!
Wish they recreate the HG shuffle alliance like what they did in the gundam wing line.

I preordered this one a couple days ago. I am not crazy about building RG kits but the results are stunning.
We desperately need a MG 2.0 of this kit. Gorgeous Gundam design.
fuck premolded frame, stability and solidity is a must.
The beam sabers originate from the HGBF Mega Shiki
Still upset that they stopped doing RG Pilot figures. My 1/144 Master Asia will be forever alone…
They could have included the figure in the p bandai effects parts
@@MacHineJXD nope already checked. If they did they haven’t shown or listed it
@@AllHailShadow117 that's what I was saying
A good idea before placing the stickers is cut the corners with x-acto etc knife first. That way there won't be excess sticker sheet and it almost like dry transfer type. Then clear coat those evenly to cover the whole decal.
That helps yeah, but quite tedious and still waterslides will give a better result overall

RG killing it , really love the hands and gauntlets.

Now we need a MG God Gundam 2.0 and it would be nice if Bandai would make a RG Devil Gundam.
One of my supplier from china apparently already have water slides for this kit. As it seems, I'm the one who made the first order. I think there were also other stores selling water slides for the kit.
I’ve never been interested in G Gundam but that kit looks amazing. I’d buy it for sure.

Just waiting/hoping for USA Gundam Store to ship my preorder at this point.
As soon as our shipment from Bandai arrives orders can start going out!
RG and MG should come with waterslides and stickers standard
N E E D
also i hope there's a P-Bandai remould of this into Shining, Build Burning and its variants, Blazing Gundam and maybe even Rising Gundam
you know, I'm just glad they gave the RG the same rotating gauntlets from HiRM
those looked really awkward when it's just locked on the side of the arm

Bandai needs to normalize waterslides with their kits, idk if stickers are just way cheaper to produce or what
Zup Zack, I like the inner frame, but I can work without it as well, pretty cool kit, thanks for the video bro.
The beam effect part is from the Mega Shiki
The God Gundam is my favorite Gundam model and I'm exited for my back-ordered pre-order of t his to be on the way! I might just pay the slight markup to get it shipped from Japan on ebay.
Très bonne rewiew l'un des meilleurs rg sur le marché 😉
Once the waterslides are released, then I'll pick this up
Now u gotta customize a Devil Gundam to go with it
Mine finally came in but no cool packing slip folder or sticker! Heck not even a packed by or a packing sticker. I never asked for these cool free swag items but yall have trained me to expect them...
Try sending an email to support!
Bandai please release rg shining Gundam
Can’t wait to have mine
Mine just came in on Saturday.
Glad bandai gave my favourite gundam the royal treatment it deserves…
can't wait to snap this up
Saul?
i guess all the knee armor separation budget went to the hi-nu this year
I don't mind the premolded rg pieces, but you really do need to top coat them if you want them to be more than statues.
Are you saying those hands of it glow with an awesome power?
TELLING THEM… TO GRASP HAPPINESS!
Hopefully a pg god gundam
MG > RG ~ 😎
Premolded frame is mistake
You can't repaint it
You can't modify it with tamiya cement & pla plates
You can't pry it open to fix loose joints
RG have forgone premolded frame and it has shown to be much better & much more solid
I think the current issues now is RG being prone to crack, especially in vent details, due to how small & thin the part is
Also certain female to male joints have thin walls on the female & male joints are generally thicker because it has to be tight, this causes cracks on the female joint & you usually have shave some inner wall of female joint
This similar issue on FAG or megami device kit, especially the arms
i love this kit :D
I want a 1/144th scale asshimar after the gao-gai-gar.
7 months late, but I'd rather have them get rid of the pre-molded frame completely. The recent RGs have had quite the minimal use of them, and I think it's for the better.

No water decals? Get third party decals. I have for my RG EVA units. The sheets even come with extras in case you screw up and they look great!
Yep there’s a set on the way to USAGS soon from SIMP decals
I'm on the fence about what RG I should buy next after I finish the Epyon
The Tallgeese
The Nu Gundam
Or this absolute unit of articulation
Any recommendations?
I was going to pick the RG version but I got the high grade
I like that Bandai started including English in their manuals. However I really wish in the future they would release them in full-English. Some areas in the manual are missing translations. Would also be nice to insert English Translation manuals with the re-print kits as well.
It will be nice if they make a metal build God gundam
Why Real Grades aren't exclusively a water slide decal kit I'll never know.
I believe the beam saber beams are the HG Mega Shiki?
Never been the biggest fan of the God Gundam, but man does it look REALLY good as a RG
HG Dragon, Maxter, Rose, Bolt, and Speigel when?
Ok, now can we get a new Rose Gundam. Please Bandai, please
I can't even fathom a RG moon gundam with just the amount of detail the HG has.
how is the kit after a year sir? does the joints start getting loose over time?
I'm planning on getting RG God Gundam but I'm wondering how long does it hold itself from being loose all over the place. Are the pre molded inner frames really that bad after a few months?
Sometimes I wanted RG as bigger scale.
It's called Master Grade
I havent been keeping up with recent gundam models, but since when did Real grades stop including pilot figures?
God finger BTW
I've been thinking this. Could you use a hairdryer to fix sticker decals onto curved surfaces more easily.
Nope.
If anything, youd end up "melting" the adhesive instead. Or worse, warping the plastic kit.
Are these shipping soon? I don't think I saw a shipping yet.
No pilot figure?
I just don't understand why they release the water slide decals separately.
Does anyone know how to fix the lose forearms?
Actually i prefer the new rg releases. The build is more exciting its more of a mg than a rg.
I hate the ms joint to be honest.
How many runnera are undergated?
Hello there i just wanna ask i built an rg nu n hi nu as a beginner can i build this one too
It was my second gunpla right after the entry grade RX78-2 and my 3rd kit altogether. I'd say go for it.
Why not man
What Kind of Tweezers are those?
Do the arms get really loose?
Burn stick
Bandai need to stop been cheap and include the water decal lol
Let hope it comes with the effect parts, but i don't think so...
Oh wow, a review
Just wish it was 1/100 lel
Sick of bandai literally translating everything else in all other manuals BESIDES rgs. It's really annoying
first
Personally I prefer the Shining Gundam, although that might just be because the show itself kind of falls apart when the God Gundam is introduced.
meh
Is it possible to get this kit anymore? Been trying to find a God Gundam Kit as a newbie but seems they're very limited or they sell out so quick.
Hopefully you found one. I got mine with the expansion set getting delivered later today. Too bad I have to work when it’s gets there.
