    In today's video, we go to the RX-93ff Nu Gundam in Fukuoka. Located in front of the Lalaport shopping mall, it is a slightly modified version of the standard RX-93 Nu Gundam used by Amuro Ray during the events of Char's Counterattack. Also located nearby is the Gundam Side-F complex and a Gundam Base.

    A few notes on the runners for those interested:
    -The Unicorn Bazooka runner contains a full bazooka, but not a full Beam Magnum (It's missing the magazines and some other core components, so you can't make an empty Beam Magnum either)
    -The Bulpup Machine Gun runner is missing some parts for the bullpup machine gun itself, but nothing some superglue and spare parts won't fix. For the Beam Rifle, most of the gun can be build with some improvisation for the missing polycaps, but it's also missing part of the sensor.

      I mean, if he still holds onto his childhood crush with pride, that's great for him and all; we shouldn't put him down for it and I'm glad that he still finds enjoyment in that.
      Personally, I'm more of a fan for her elder sister, since she was one of my first waifus as a lad undergoing mad puberty at the time, as well as being the only reason how I managed to finish watching SEED Destiny at all. Plus, her Gunner Zaku (well, perhaps I should say Gelgoog Menace now) is still a dope design, even today.
      I've said it a number of times in the past and I might as well say it again; Shinn does not deserve her, she is too good for the likes of him, haha.

    I went to see the statue about 2 years ago and it's definitely breathtaking. Admittedly it's a little underwhelming compared to the Unicorn and I'm still a little annoyed they changed the colour scheme with this Nu variant, but it's still a great sight to behold despite all of that.

    The fin funnels on my MG VerKa barely stay on, and that's after I reinforced it with a bunch of magnets. A 1/1 scale Nu Gundam with 1/1 scale fin funnels is a recipe for disaster.
    But despite the funnels being the most remarkable thing about the Nu, it is still a great design without them. I think the replacement thing (is it a funnel or a cannon?) on the ff is still pretty cool.

    • @ivanj46

      What would've been smart is to use the buildings around to prop up the actual fin funnels in action.

    I wasn't sure it'd be worth the trip over to Fukuoka, and considering how much it would have cost me to get there, I wasn't sure it'd be a daytrip thing either. After seeing the RX-98FF in this video, I should have just sucked up the cost of a hotel room. I did visit Yokohama again, but didn't go all the way to the factory. I did, however, spent way too much money on Gundam Arsenal Base and the Kancolle cabinets in multiple locations (along with me learning how the crane games worked getting my Holo noodle stopper and Rem figure). The Tokyo Gundam Base was reservation only basically the entire time I was there, though, which was an incredible bummer.

  • @MrDarksol

    Man it is stuff like this that really makes me want to visit Japan one day because now that the RX 78 2 gundam statue is gone, I have to at least see one gundam statue in my life and that presentation of the base Nu gundam looked outstanding. It definitely looked like a great experience and I was surpirised at your self control to not buy a whole lot of stuff at all of the places to buy model kits. Granted you let your love of Meryin control your soul but you did good Kararot lol. That said, really sucked that Suletta was not the 8 prize anymore and yet MIORINE was the most desirable........Those guys have zero taste. Still great to hear that you had an awesome time!

    Before it's Shutdown I was able to get the Statue 144 version set and thankfully that is the onky one I got to have. If the Pandemic didn't hit there was a small chance I may have gone to Gundam Factory Yokohama but I think after many issues around the world yeah its for the best some tried. It is sad we never tried as fans however got to see that it did so well after many visitors and channged times for closures.

    Word of advice, when it comes to crane game figures. Just buy them second hand in japan. They are usually really cheap (bout less than 12 usd in japan, 20 usd average). There are plenty of 2nd hand shops that have these prize figures.
    Other than that. I'm jealous you got to there! 😂

    I went to fukuoka last year for 1 day, and I can tell you that was too fast lol. I didn't know it will be that far from anything else (4 hours from osaka, 6 hours from tokyo, by bullet train). I ate at 3 ramen places, bought few nu ff kits (because the sazabi one didn't come out yet). if I have time, I will come back again there and explore more of fukuoka, they have so much to offer other than gundam and ramen.
    btw, I have card for gundam base membership? It is not connected to my bandai namco account though. I got that one in 2017 when they told me if I want to make one or not and I said yes. *edit: ah ok, I just checked it, my cardcard is temporary membership card and I need to register with the card to my bandai namco account to keep my points that is in the card
