Let us know what is your own top 5 or 10 MG of all times in the comment below!!! If your favorite kits has not be included it might be because i have not build it yet like the MG Barbatos.
yeah nu gundam is one of the best on quality and design... the rest depend on which series the buyer like... 00, wing, seed,etc... but if you had not build it then change title to my top 10 best.....
Just getting into Gunpla. Dynames was my first MG. Literally built it this week. I ADORE it. The head just goes together beautifully and the entire kit was fun to put together.
MG Barbatos feels like a serious omission here. It's definitely the best inner frame you're gonna find in an MG and really raises the bar for the line in general.
I have just started building about 2 months ago after playing Gundam Breaker 3. Never watched the show, not a huge anime fan. I used to build Tamiya 1/24 kits years ago, and vaguely remember commercials of Gundam kits between breaks of watching wrestling as a kid. Since I started I have built 1 HG, 2 RG, 2 FM and have bought 18 MG kits, still building 4 and currently doing the F91 2.0. Hands down my favorite kit is the MG Sinanju Stein NT. The hands blew me away with the full finger posability and just the overall quality and size is amazing. I highly recommend it and am finding an excuse to convince my wife to buy the Ver Ka for me at some point just to build it all over again.
Dynames is an absolute pleasure, I think it has the most solid frame of any build I've done. Definitely Prefer RG Sazabi over MG strictly because of the Articulation/Sag issues of the MG. Also, same goes for the NU, RG over Ver.Ka. All in all great list, might have to look for the Stein now!
I've built mostly MG's, and my top kits in no particular order would be - Sazabi Verka, Nu Verka, Sinanju Stein Narrative, Dynames, Turn X, Phenex Narrative, and Freedom 2.0.
My top 5 fav 1. GM Sniper Custom Tenneth Color 2. Zaku 2.0 3. Full Armor Gundam Ver Ka 4. Nu Gundam Ver Ka 5. GM Cannon White Dingo After watching the video I'd say I'll definitely give the Shin Musha a try. Always thought it had an interesting design just didn't know if it'll hold up now through the times.
The Shin Musha Gundam is one that I can safely recomend going for the special edition. The gold plate and the display stand make such a difference. They bring the kit from a really cool looking piece to and awesome piece.
Unless you wanna paint it. I'm looking exactly for the basic one, cause painting gold plated plastic is a pain in the ass. I avoided the kit exactly cause of that, until i learned there's one without the cheap gold.
@@RedCometNurse It's not but just a gold Gundam marker cleans it up nicely. It's not as bad as the Phenex I built. That was a nightmare. Though the Musha Gundam's legs are really fucking weird
My favorite MG is the Turn A. It's my favorite gundam design so I'm biased in that regard but the build was amazing, it's solid as a rock, great gimmicks, good accessories, great articulation, and when you combine it with the MG Moonlight Butterfly wings kit and stand it's fucking gorgeous. I love the Turn A and it's so good to have a kit that does it justice. Now if we could only get a proper MG/RE100 of the Gold SUMO.
1. MG sazabi Ver Ka 2. MG Sinanju Stein ver ka 3. MG Hi Nu Gundam ver ka 4. MG Barbatos 5. MG Dynames 6. MG Freedom 2.0 7. MG 00 Raiser 8. MG Unicorn gundam 9. MG Zeta Plus C1 10. MG RX 78-2
I’m currently (finally) building the RX-78-2 3.0 and I’ve got to say, after building really solid kits like Freedom Gundam 2.0, the new Barbatos, and the RG Nu Gundam, I’d really like to see a granddaddy 4.0. With some of the new tech in more modern kits it could be a much more fun build, IMO.
I'm more of a 1/144 scale person, but the top five MG I've built are; 5) Acguy 4) Gundam Mk. II 3) Zaku II F 2.0 2) RX-78-02 Origin Ver. 1) Nu Gundam Ver. Ka
I haven't made very many MGs, so I will rank the 6 that I have made in order as best as I can! 6.) Epyon 5.) Unicorn Perfectability (from a @MechaGaikotsu contest) 4.) Full Armor Gundam Thunderbolt (Ver Ka) 3.) RX-78-2 Origin Version 2.) Barbatos 1.) Hyaku Shiki And honestly those top 3 are ALL solid kits so it's hard to truly rank them, other than maybe how I am feeling that particular day. I haven't been at this very long, but I have yet to buy a kit (MG or otherwise) that I do regret!
5. TURN A Gundam MG: Sleek functional Syd Mead Design, especially them sexy Legs. It has an uncanny ability to grow on you the longer you look at it. 4. Titanium SINANJU Ver.Ka MG: Best looking Char Suit in my opinion, sleek, looking 3x faster than anything else and as dangerous,too. Lots of gimmicks, though intimidating building process. Also very much demanding in excess hobby effort, to deal with it properly. 3. p-Bandai JESTA CANNON MG: Bulkier, more heavily armed version of the Jesta. Only UC Earth Force grunt suit design I actually like (apart from the default Jesta). 2. Gundam BARBATOS ASW-G-08 Mk.IV MG: Perfect version of the Barbatos, gimmicks, options, colours and colour seperation, mobility, proportions and ease of build. Only thing I dislike is that it comes with stickers (Bleh!), rather than my preferred waterslide decals. Also sadly: Mobile Worker (and Orga Itsuka are) only included in the P-Bandai MG Accessory kit. 1. RX-93-V2 Gundam HI-Nu ver.Ka MG: Yes, I do like the bulkier version more over the Nu Gundam ver-Ka. This thing really looks like the King of the battle-field, and the peak suit for Amuro Ray to pilot. Was also the 1. MG I ever build and quite a challenge and a welcomed experience, overall.
The mg nu Gundam ver ka was such a unique experience that I'd honestly say you should hold off building it till you've got a general feel to how mg builds go
*looks sheepish* The Ver Ka Nu was my 3rd ever kit after the HG Fighting Action Sandrock Custom & RG Char's Z'Gok which was new at the time. All were bought late 2014 and now my collection is over 200 strong, mainly being HGs.
mg nu ver ka was actually my first gunpla experience and i didn't have any experience in any modeling kit before thus broke some parts :D i initially just want to have one MG to be posed next to my PC so I choose one of the best MG at the time but end up with a couple more MGs instead
@@chrystanto lol, I'm in the same situation as you. Saw the MG Exia Dark Matter, and built it. My first gunpla kit as well. And I wanted it to stand on top of my PC (I have a bay on my case that I can put it, to not block airflow). But I got the Gunpla bug, and I want to buy more to keep my Dark Matter company. I'm thinking Hi-Nu Ver Ka., Dynames, MSN-06S Sinanju, or Hyakushiki ver 2.0
The very first Gunpla I bought was Full Armor Gundam 7th. Then I jumped into RG with the Banshee Norn. My first MG was the Marasai but I did not do any customs until I got the MG Zgok.
Great top 10! Nu its an awesome kit! The MG shin Musha actually use the inner frame of the MG RX-78 One Year War not the 2.0, i love the shin musha sengoku no jin version!
I've only built 6 MGs so far, (Working on my 7th), but my favorite of all of them has to have been the RX-78-2 Gundam, Ver 2.0 and the RX-78NT Gundam Alex ver 2.0. Both solid builds, great gimmicks (Although the Chobam armor pieces on the Alex seem rather tenuous to apply or take off) and the inner frames are great, but in terms of inner frame mechanics, my favorite is the Barbatos, that has some great mechanic details.
I have the Nu Ver Ka as well and it was an amazing build. Only issues I had was the right index finger popped off and wont tighten up on it. I Also have the Shin Musha which was my fav until the NU lol. And I got its partner as well, same with the NU (Sazabi Ver Ka), both in backlog. More MG in backlog than built.
nice list. I only have the 6 Master grades though and this will be my ranking 1. Nu Gundam Ver Ka 2. Sinanju Stein Ver Ka 3. MG Death Sycthe Hell Daban 4. Red Frame Astray Kai 5. Astray Turn Red 6. Sazabi Ver Ka next on my wishlist will be the Strike Freedom Daban Model and bandai Barbatos
Nu Gundam is the top for me too. I've had all versions of this model from the original 1/144 release and they all have their flaws, especially the Ver Ka's funnel mounting. But it looks AMAZING! I bought two: One with the funnels and bazooka glued to the backpack and one for funnel attack action.
The problem with ver.ka is that Katoki does care A LOT about details... To the point of making the model itself kinda problematic. That said, there are ways to fix that. I'm holding my MG Nu in a backlog until i get metal frame kit and KOSMOS LED funnel unit. Once I get those, it's going to be glorious!
I've built my very first yet very old MG: Shining Gundam. It has very basic and not fully advanced articulation, maybe it's a first gen MG. Limited articulation with armor on, it's better to keep only inner-frame mode for decent, insane karate poses. My inner self tells me to wait longer for newer kits especially the future RG line.
i've heard sooooo many people put MG dynames on such a high pedestal .... i just dont see it. the kit just isnt for me, same thing with the new virtue comin out
I just ordered 130$ worth of gunpla based on this video haha! Low price the HG Ginn high mobility type was very fun build and awesome to paint for under 20 bucks. The Bugu is the same. Mid road the 1/100 Bawoo was awsome easy and impressive. 38$ The GM sniper too around 40$ Sazabi all the way for high end. No PG for me yet. Would be interested in opinions on that. Cheers brothers!
Seeing no mentions of the MG Re-GZ Custom hurts lol. Definitely my favorite MG build out of the 4 I've done. Saviour, Wing Zero EW ver. KA, Delta Plus, and that.
I cant put the nu at top because I have issues with the knees 1. Mg rx-78-2 the origins 2. Mg jegan 3. Mg astray red frame 4. Mg zeta 2.0 5. Mg sazabi ver ka 6. Mg wing proto zero 7. Mg zaku warrior lum. Cus. 8. Mg nu ver ka 9. Mg sinanju 10. Mg avalanche exia
What song is being used in the sinanju stein ver ka part? It sounds beautiful 1. Barbatos 2. RX78-2 The Origin 3. Freedom 2.0 4. Zaku 2.0 5. Aile Strike Ver.RM 6. Full Armor Gundam(Tunderbolt) 7. 00 QanT 8. Strike Freedom 9. Astray Red Frame 10. Wing Proto Zero
My only issue with this list is #1 after owning the kit for a few years I've noticed some flaws. 1. Hands (terrible) 2. The joints go floppy and sag more than any MG kit I've owned (built over 70). 3. Funnel fins (a major portion of the kit) are shockingly bad and for new builders and folks who dont paint they're a waste of plastic unless you modify them. The they fall off and fall apart then you dont know whatborder they're supposed to clip together and then you realise the clips arent worst the time. They fold in on themselves and the connection is poor. I love the kit, just after building so much, seeing so much bias, I feel it's time to be realistic about its flaws because they're always over looked. But I respect others opinions on the kit. Personally my favourite kits; 1. MG Freedom 2.0/ MG Destiny - Never had an issue with leg/waist joints 2. MG RX 78-2 The origin ver - The best version of granddaddy 3. Hyaku shiki 2.0 - You explained it perfectly. 4. MG Nu / MG Sazabi - These are companion kits, so they deserve a joint spot. 5. MG Turn X - love it or hate it, most unique design/build 6. MG Barbatos 7. MG Dynames - Best Sniper kit 8. MG Proto Wing - Best transforming kit imo 9. MG MK2 Musha (plated ver.) 10. MG Ball - Seriously it's a cheap ass fun and unique design.
Love the top 10 list and I agree with the issues about the Nu Ver. Ka. Instead of wasting my time trying to put all of the funnels to one side, I went with the double fin funnel config so they can have a more stiff hold. I'd also complain about the custom beam sabre not staying place. Nonetheless, my fav kit so far.
@@derricklandersjr Good idea with the funnels, I actually picked up a 2nd funnel set recently, my plan was to modify them and use the old ones with the effect parts. I think I'll try the double configuration, as you suggested , I went with the single and funnels flying with my painted RG kit + PB funnels + effect parts. I genuinely love the kit, I just feel that sometimes our love for the design and build process cloud our overall opinion (but in could be wrong). I actually feel the same way about the MG Jesta, I've found it's a loose floppy mess (until painted), but its overall design is top notch for a grunt, but folks love it and I completely understand why.
I recently ordered the mg dyname trans am and it’s just so awesome with its metallic gloss and it’s amazing articulation, u should definitely do a review
Is MG Astray Red frame and MG Blue frame good? Because I already bought them both. I'm still new in this gunpla worlds. So I didn't know much about the kits. Help
I have only been into GunPla for about 1-1/2 years, and made about 15 kits. But 1/100 is my favorite scale as a solid compromise between variety, cost, and size/detail. I have built 8 1/100 scale models in total (6 MGs including 1 Ver Ka, 1 HiRM, and 1 RE1/100). I like my RGs, but sometimes they're just a bit too small, you know? Of those 6 MGs that I have built, I have built the Hyaku Shiki from your list! It's a dream and a beauty. The Shin Musha Gundam, Dynames, GM Sniper II, and Jesta were all on my "to-do list" so it was nice to feel justified in having them there. I'd like to have the Sazabi and Nu Ver Ka MGs, but I already have their RG counterparts, so they're kinda on the back-burner for now. That being said, I'm surprised the Barbatos wasn't on the list! It's a very fun build and pretty unique, so even if you've made 100 Gundams, GMs, and Zeon grunts, the Barbatos presents something new. Also, the giant mace is a pretty rad weapon.
that is a pretty good experience. I have not built the Barbatos yet since i alrready own the 1/100 FM Barbatos 1st form. I am waiting for a MG 1/100 Barbatos Lupus release to get one in the end this is just my personal favorites :)
@@GunplaNetwork Good call! I understand that, too, I personally really want to get the RE1/100 Kimaris Trooper, but I also have this fear that as soon as I do, within 3 months they'll announce an MG of it! Not the worst problem to have, though, and I will probably get it by the end of the year or beginning of next year if I don't hear anything about new IBO MGs!
The shin musha gundam *does* not use the rx78-2 2.0 frame it uses the rx78-2 OYW inner frame. It’s similar to a real grade as it has prebuilt parts. Ball jointed hips make its legs and balance all loose but hey it’s an alright kit.
List of stuff to buy during quarantine? Check. Also I get the feeling I really shouldn't have started my Gunpla building expereince with the MG Full Armor Thunderbolt Ver Ka...
Plz give ur valuable opinions on MG Gundam astray blue frame 2nd revise... Also How good/bad is it compared to other MGs people are recommending (like Dynammes, Freedom, Justice, Barbatos etc).? I know it is an old kit but I think proportions are great so was considering it..
I have a decent amount of MGs but i'm not sure is i have a favourite... RX-78-1/3 2.0, RX-78-2 3.0 Turn A/X, Ver Ka Nu/Sazabi, Victory/V2, Musha/Musha Mk2, Tallgeese 1/2/3, Buster & GM Sniper Custom with the G04 & G05 on the way.
I build one MG recently the providence gundam. I feel satisfied with the detail and all. I’m think of build another one The Amazing Red Warrior 3 MG 2.0 version. What do you think about it ?
i just finish building the providence 2 days ago, it was fun but i still prefer the justice and freedom 2.0 over it. I am really not a fan of the Amazing Red Warrior design but it is a good build
I love it i think its on the same level as the justice. The justice just achieved something special in making me fall in love with the design. If i had to put them in order it will be justice - freedom - providence but they are all great
I find weird that the freedom 2.0 isn't on anybody top 10 around the comments. It was pretty cheap priced, and once panel lined and with its wings opened, it looks absolutely stuning on any pose. I love it.
My favorite will always be my MG Turn A. It was so fun to build, it's a solid as fuck kit, tons of accessories, brilliant engineering, and I got the Moonlight Butterfly kit to go with it so it looks even more amazing on my shelf. Easily the biggest eye catcher I have on display.
My top 10 would be: 1) Nu Gundam Ver Ka 2) Sazabi Ver Ka 3) Ground Gundam 4) RX-78 2.0 5) Barbatos 6) Hyaku Shiki 2.0 7) Zeta 2.0 8) Mk 2 2.0 9) ZZ Ver Ka 10) Freedom 2.0
Only built 3 MGs so far but I got 2 on my backlog. But I can't decide if the Proto Zero or the Rinascita is my current fav. Built the Quanta Full Saber, but parts of it will fall off, the GN Sword Bits aren't attached securely, and because of it's heavy backpack, it's way too easy to knock it off the Action Base.
Great list. Several of my favorites are on here (GM Sniper II, Justice, Nu Ver Ka). I am only missing the Musha Gundam from this list. I might just have to pick one up now.
My favourite master grade is virtue and exia 2.0 neither exist yet but I know they’re my favourite who agrees, just think how fun it will be to build nadleeh then snipping our some thicc armour to protect it
As the RG Nu Gundam Is recently out, would you recommend me to get the RG or de MG? I like a lot the RG aesthetics, but the size of the MG is awesome. Please help!
I started Gunpla building with the HG Astray Blue Frame. I'm a huge fan of the Blue Frame and I really want to build the MG versión of the Blue Frame hence the upraded tactical arms and new tricks he has. But, I also want to make sure it's beginner friendly.
So far I’ve got 4 favorite master grades that I’ve built. One of I like even though I totally botched it, the GM 2.0. I also like the MG Char’s Zaku II 2.0, the MG Wing Gundam Proto Zero, and the new Wing Gundam Zero Ver Ka. Edit: I forgot that I also really like the Alex 2.0
I'd suggest the MG Destiny Extreme Burst. It was my favorite and quickest build. The effect parts are excellent especially the wings of light. Also, I enjoy the fact that all of the joints are chromed unlike the MG Strike Freedom. One other fun build for me is the MG Epyon. Love design and the heat whip/rod actually has a strong hold for dynamic posing.
I haven't built many MG, but I am really excited to build the Barbatos. My favourite MG I have is either the Jesta or Qan [T] variant. A spec ops grunt that has a rugged but simple design, and a character suit with simple asymmetrical design. However, I am eagerly awaiting a 2.0 of the Super Gundam or Ground Type. Those just speak to me on some level.
Mg barbatos is the only mg I've built now. And the inner frame is so satisfying to build. The torso part is the most exciting part of the build for me.
the jesta hands are 3.0 because it comes from the rx78 3.0 also when it comes to the stein I got all three I want to put the sinanju backpack on the stein because I dont like the one it comes with
Nice! I've been doing hgs lately and am finishing a rg 00 raiser right now. Then I have my first pg(red frame Kai) sitting downstairs in the box. My plans were to back it up to a mg after I finish that beast and I will definitely refer to this list when choosing. :)
Peoples needs to chill out regarding the Barbatos they already said he haven't built it yet. You are all acting like it's the best thing since sliced breads.
Let us know what is your own top 5 or 10 MG of all times in the comment below!!!
If your favorite kits has not be included it might be because i have not build it yet like the MG Barbatos.
yeah nu gundam is one of the best on quality and design... the rest depend on which series the buyer like... 00, wing, seed,etc... but if you had not build it then change title to my top 10 best.....
Pretty much, top lists are always subjective since they are heavily influenced by the writer personal tastes
The dynames is my first MG and posing is still hard for me but I did enjoy the build just need to try and find a LED kit for it
I have the Shin Musha & GM sniper ii clear version.
MG RX-78-02 2.0 GTO and MG Barbatos are great.
My top 5 would be..
1.justice 2.astray red frame kai 3.jesta 4.duel shroud 5.sazabi

AND FROM THE SHADOWS!
Hello jabmans here. Today is my 9000th master grade.
MG Gundam age 1 Normal. I would like to build that kit. Every review I have seen praises that kit.
@@jasoncallair5171 Fantastic kit. Unfortunately, very difficult to find. And the variants are IMPOSSIBLE to find.
MG Barbatos feels like a serious omission here. It's definitely the best inner frame you're gonna find in an MG and really raises the bar for the line in general.
Cannot recommend something that as yet to be build
@@GunplaNetwork Well I've built it and I'd recommend it :p
Im waiting for the lupus release to dive in the mg ibo line. That or mg gusion fullrebake
I was never a fan of the first Barbatos either but the MG made me a fan.
gonna bet mg lupus or rex is PBANDAI

Surprised that Barbatos didn't make the list since everyone says it's a top MG.
I’ve never built him but I really want to get one
I agree. The barbatos 4th form mg is the best mg I’ve ever built because it has no flaws.
Because as long as you watch more Gundam and own more Gunpla, Barbatos are just boring
Not only that, I'm surprised that none of the Tallgeese suits were there as well. Maybe Dannick hasn't made any of them?
@@davidhovik7176 epik
I've built mostly MG's, and my top kits in no particular order would be - Sazabi Verka, Nu Verka, Sinanju Stein Narrative, Dynames, Turn X, Phenex Narrative, and Freedom 2.0.

The Shin Musha Gundam is one that I can safely recomend going for the special edition. The gold plate and the display stand make such a difference. They bring the kit from a really cool looking piece to and awesome piece.
Is the gold plating undergated? That's always a huge caveat with any kit with metallic parts.
Unless you wanna paint it. I'm looking exactly for the basic one, cause painting gold plated plastic is a pain in the ass. I avoided the kit exactly cause of that, until i learned there's one without the cheap gold.
Thats why i went with the cheapest one and painted the gold parts gold leaf

3) Zaku II F 2.0

2. Gundam BARBATOS ASW-G-08 Mk.IV MG: Perfect version of the Barbatos, gimmicks, options, colours and colour seperation, mobility, proportions and ease of build. Only thing I dislike is that it comes with stickers (Bleh!), rather than my preferred waterslide decals. Also sadly: Mobile Worker (and Orga Itsuka are) only included in the P-Bandai MG Accessory kit.
1. RX-93-V2 Gundam HI-Nu ver.Ka MG: Yes, I do like the bulkier version more over the Nu Gundam ver-Ka. This thing really looks like the King of the battle-field, and the peak suit for Amuro Ray to pilot. Was also the 1. MG I ever build and quite a challenge and a welcomed experience, overall.

1 Dynames
2 Astray red frame
3 Mk ii AEUG
4 OO Raiser
5 Rx 0/Unicorn
Great top 10! Nu its an awesome kit! The MG shin Musha actually use the inner frame of the MG RX-78 One Year War not the 2.0, i love the shin musha sengoku no jin version!
Despite its finicky nature, I’d go so far as to say the Zeta 2.0 should have been a contender for this list
I've only built 6 MGs so far, (Working on my 7th), but my favorite of all of them has to have been the RX-78-2 Gundam, Ver 2.0 and the RX-78NT Gundam Alex ver 2.0. Both solid builds, great gimmicks (Although the Chobam armor pieces on the Alex seem rather tenuous to apply or take off) and the inner frames are great, but in terms of inner frame mechanics, my favorite is the Barbatos, that has some great mechanic details.
I have the Nu Ver Ka as well and it was an amazing build. Only issues I had was the right index finger popped off and wont tighten up on it. I Also have the Shin Musha which was my fav until the NU lol. And I got its partner as well, same with the NU (Sazabi Ver Ka), both in backlog. More MG in backlog than built.
nice list. I only have the 6 Master grades though and this will be my ranking
1. Nu Gundam Ver Ka
2. Sinanju Stein Ver Ka
3. MG Death Sycthe Hell Daban
4. Red Frame Astray Kai
5. Astray Turn Red
6. Sazabi Ver Ka
next on my wishlist will be the Strike Freedom Daban Model and bandai Barbatos
Definitely the ZAKU 2.0 j. And the shin musha. Astounding ones.
Nu Gundam is the top for me too. I've had all versions of this model from the original 1/144 release and they all have their flaws, especially the Ver Ka's funnel mounting. But it looks AMAZING! I bought two: One with the funnels and bazooka glued to the backpack and one for funnel attack action.
The problem with ver.ka is that Katoki does care A LOT about details... To the point of making the model itself kinda problematic. That said, there are ways to fix that. I'm holding my MG Nu in a backlog until i get metal frame kit and KOSMOS LED funnel unit. Once I get those, it's going to be glorious!
I've built my very first yet very old MG: Shining Gundam. It has very basic and not fully advanced articulation, maybe it's a first gen MG. Limited articulation with armor on, it's better to keep only inner-frame mode for decent, insane karate poses.
My inner self tells me to wait longer for newer kits especially the future RG line.
Im eyeing for MG Dynames. As per review, it is a solid kit!
i've heard sooooo many people put MG dynames on such a high pedestal .... i just dont see it.
the kit just isnt for me, same thing with the new virtue comin out
I just ordered 130$ worth of gunpla based on this video haha!
Low price the HG Ginn high mobility type was very fun build and awesome to paint for under 20 bucks. The Bugu is the same.
Mid road the 1/100 Bawoo was awsome easy and impressive. 38$
The GM sniper too around 40$
Sazabi all the way for high end.
No PG for me yet. Would be interested in opinions on that.
Cheers brothers!
Seeing no mentions of the MG Re-GZ Custom hurts lol. Definitely my favorite MG build out of the 4 I've done. Saviour, Wing Zero EW ver. KA, Delta Plus, and that.
I cant put the nu at top because I have issues with the knees
1. Mg rx-78-2 the origins
2. Mg jegan
3. Mg astray red frame
4. Mg zeta 2.0
5. Mg sazabi ver ka
6. Mg wing proto zero
7. Mg zaku warrior lum. Cus.
8. Mg nu ver ka
9. Mg sinanju
10. Mg avalanche exia
What song is being used in the sinanju stein ver ka part? It sounds beautiful
1. Barbatos
2. RX78-2 The Origin
3. Freedom 2.0
4. Zaku 2.0
5. Aile Strike Ver.RM
6. Full Armor Gundam(Tunderbolt)
7. 00 QanT
8. Strike Freedom
9. Astray Red Frame
10. Wing Proto Zero
Unit L By Sawano Hyroyuki from the short movie Mobile Suit Gundam UC: A Phantom World in which the stein appears
@@GunplaNetwork thanks
My only issue with this list is #1 after owning the kit for a few years I've noticed some flaws.
1. Hands (terrible)
2. The joints go floppy and sag more than any MG kit I've owned (built over 70).
3. Funnel fins (a major portion of the kit) are shockingly bad and for new builders and folks who dont paint they're a waste of plastic unless you modify them. The they fall off and fall apart then you dont know whatborder they're supposed to clip together and then you realise the clips arent worst the time. They fold in on themselves and the connection is poor.
I love the kit, just after building so much, seeing so much bias, I feel it's time to be realistic about its flaws because they're always over looked. But I respect others opinions on the kit.
Personally my favourite kits;
1. MG Freedom 2.0/ MG Destiny - Never had an issue with leg/waist joints
2. MG RX 78-2 The origin ver - The best version of granddaddy
3. Hyaku shiki 2.0 - You explained it perfectly.
4. MG Nu / MG Sazabi - These are companion kits, so they deserve a joint spot.
5. MG Turn X - love it or hate it, most unique design/build
6. MG Barbatos
7. MG Dynames - Best Sniper kit
8. MG Proto Wing - Best transforming kit imo
9. MG MK2 Musha (plated ver.)
10. MG Ball - Seriously it's a cheap ass fun and unique design.
that is a pretty solid list some of theses kits were in my top 10 last year.
yeah i love freedom 2.0 unique beautiful wings and full of weapon MG
Love the top 10 list and I agree with the issues about the Nu Ver. Ka. Instead of wasting my time trying to put all of the funnels to one side, I went with the double fin funnel config so they can have a more stiff hold. I'd also complain about the custom beam sabre not staying place. Nonetheless, my fav kit so far.
@@derricklandersjr Good idea with the funnels, I actually picked up a 2nd funnel set recently, my plan was to modify them and use the old ones with the effect parts. I think I'll try the double configuration, as you suggested , I went with the single and funnels flying with my painted RG kit + PB funnels + effect parts.
I genuinely love the kit, I just feel that sometimes our love for the design and build process cloud our overall opinion (but in could be wrong). I actually feel the same way about the MG Jesta, I've found it's a loose floppy mess (until painted), but its overall design is top notch for a grunt, but folks love it and I completely understand why.
I'm having a hard time choosing between mg justice, strike freedom and unicorn. Any recommendation?
I recently ordered the mg dyname trans am and it’s just so awesome with its metallic gloss and it’s amazing articulation, u should definitely do a review
My top 10
1) Fazz ver ka
2)Strike Rouge
3)F91 2.0
4)GM Sniper 2
5) Sinanju OVA
6) Strike Freedom 2.0
7) Providence
8) Justice
9) Buster gundam
10) Blitz
My favorite mg is the F91 2.0 hands down. It’s tiny but it’s powerful
I was so hype for that kit but the head build with all theses tiny parts just pissed me off haha. But it is a beautiful little suit
Nu Ver. Ka definitely the GOAT MG kit
My top 5 mg:
1. Sinanju ova
2. Red Frame Kai
3. Shin Musha
4. Epyon
5. Blitz
Is the epyon and blitz well made?
Is MG Astray Red frame and MG Blue frame good? Because I already bought them both. I'm still new in this gunpla worlds. So I didn't know much about the kits. Help
Yes they are
@@GunplaNetwork thank you! 👌🏻
I have only been into GunPla for about 1-1/2 years, and made about 15 kits. But 1/100 is my favorite scale as a solid compromise between variety, cost, and size/detail. I have built 8 1/100 scale models in total (6 MGs including 1 Ver Ka, 1 HiRM, and 1 RE1/100). I like my RGs, but sometimes they're just a bit too small, you know?
Of those 6 MGs that I have built, I have built the Hyaku Shiki from your list! It's a dream and a beauty. The Shin Musha Gundam, Dynames, GM Sniper II, and Jesta were all on my "to-do list" so it was nice to feel justified in having them there. I'd like to have the Sazabi and Nu Ver Ka MGs, but I already have their RG counterparts, so they're kinda on the back-burner for now.
That being said, I'm surprised the Barbatos wasn't on the list! It's a very fun build and pretty unique, so even if you've made 100 Gundams, GMs, and Zeon grunts, the Barbatos presents something new. Also, the giant mace is a pretty rad weapon.
that is a pretty good experience. I have not built the Barbatos yet since i alrready own the 1/100 FM Barbatos 1st form. I am waiting for a MG 1/100 Barbatos Lupus release to get one in the end this is just my personal favorites :)
@@GunplaNetwork Good call! I understand that, too, I personally really want to get the RE1/100 Kimaris Trooper, but I also have this fear that as soon as I do, within 3 months they'll announce an MG of it! Not the worst problem to have, though, and I will probably get it by the end of the year or beginning of next year if I don't hear anything about new IBO MGs!
@@EcnoTheNeato same here i understand where you are coming from
Canadian gundam is awesome to be honest they ship really fast and have good prices. It’s so hard to find gunpla for good prices in the gta
The shin musha gundam *does* not use the rx78-2 2.0 frame it uses the rx78-2 OYW inner frame. It’s similar to a real grade as it has prebuilt parts. Ball jointed hips make its legs and balance all loose but hey it’s an alright kit.
List of stuff to buy during quarantine? Check.
Also I get the feeling I really shouldn't have started my Gunpla building expereince with the MG Full Armor Thunderbolt Ver Ka...
at least you started thats the most important part
Plz give ur valuable opinions on MG Gundam astray blue frame 2nd revise... Also How good/bad is it compared to other MGs people are recommending (like Dynammes, Freedom, Justice, Barbatos etc).?
I know it is an old kit but I think proportions are great so was considering it..
Although it's an old kit, it is still on par with the current Mgs in terms of articulation and overall quality.
I have a decent amount of MGs but i'm not sure is i have a favourite...
RX-78-1/3 2.0, RX-78-2 3.0 Turn A/X, Ver Ka Nu/Sazabi, Victory/V2, Musha/Musha Mk2, Tallgeese 1/2/3, Buster & GM Sniper Custom with the G04 & G05 on the way.
I heard Unti-L when the Sinanju Stein showed up. NOICE touch there! I still love that song!
I build one MG recently the providence gundam. I feel satisfied with the detail and all. I’m think of build another one The Amazing Red Warrior 3 MG 2.0 version. What do you think about it ?
i just finish building the providence 2 days ago, it was fun but i still prefer the justice and freedom 2.0 over it. I am really not a fan of the Amazing Red Warrior design but it is a good build
Thank you for the comments. Hehe I would like to try it first and see the satisfaction for myself thus I’ll make sure to leave a review for you later
Hi, just curious, what do you mean by the sazabi innerframe showing it’s age but the Nu isn’t? Just wondering coz the nu is older than the sazabi.
What are your thoughts on the freedom 2.0 and if it is better/worse than the mg justice, providence and aile strike? ^^
I love it i think its on the same level as the justice. The justice just achieved something special in making me fall in love with the design. If i had to put them in order it will be justice - freedom - providence but they are all great
I find weird that the freedom 2.0 isn't on anybody top 10 around the comments. It was pretty cheap priced, and once panel lined and with its wings opened, it looks absolutely stuning on any pose. I love it.
My list is:
1. MG Barbatos
2. MG RX-78 2 3.0
3. N/A
4. N/A
5. N/A
Yeah I haven't built that much MG's too much money lol
My favorite will always be my MG Turn A. It was so fun to build, it's a solid as fuck kit, tons of accessories, brilliant engineering, and I got the Moonlight Butterfly kit to go with it so it looks even more amazing on my shelf. Easily the biggest eye catcher I have on display.
I just got Turn X. Fun build, and the design grew on me FAST.
Are you gonna update this list? 👀👀👀
I should after this many years
My top 10 would be:
1) Nu Gundam Ver Ka
2) Sazabi Ver Ka
3) Ground Gundam
4) RX-78 2.0
5) Barbatos
6) Hyaku Shiki 2.0
7) Zeta 2.0
8) Mk 2 2.0
9) ZZ Ver Ka
10) Freedom 2.0
Thanks for the recommendations!
Only built 3 MGs so far but I got 2 on my backlog. But I can't decide if the Proto Zero or the Rinascita is my current fav. Built the Quanta Full Saber, but parts of it will fall off, the GN Sword Bits aren't attached securely, and because of it's heavy backpack, it's way too easy to knock it off the Action Base.
Great list. Several of my favorites are on here (GM Sniper II, Justice, Nu Ver Ka). I am only missing the Musha Gundam from this list. I might just have to pick one up now.
Planning on MG Dynames. GM Sniper looks cool. Also going for MG Barbatos.
My favourite master grade is virtue and exia 2.0 neither exist yet but I know they’re my favourite who agrees, just think how fun it will be to build nadleeh then snipping our some thicc armour to protect it
As the RG Nu Gundam Is recently out, would you recommend me to get the RG or de MG? I like a lot the RG aesthetics, but the size of the MG is awesome. Please help!
They are both pleasing experience and the top of their line. You cant go wrong with any, it really depend which design you prefer
I started Gunpla building with the HG Astray Blue Frame. I'm a huge fan of the Blue Frame and I really want to build the MG versión of the Blue Frame hence the upraded tactical arms and new tricks he has. But, I also want to make sure it's beginner friendly.
For me the MG Alex was a lot of fun to build and a solid design too. 😎
I actually just got done building my own MG Justice a couple days ago. Easily one of my favorites for sure.
Pretty good list
Mg barbatos was my first gunpla. Sazabi var ka was my 3rd.
The RX-78-2 3.0, 1st place, Gunpla at its best.
I got number 1 and 2 and so happy about it.
So far I’ve got 4 favorite master grades that I’ve built. One of I like even though I totally botched it, the GM 2.0. I also like the MG Char’s Zaku II 2.0, the MG Wing Gundam Proto Zero, and the new Wing Gundam Zero Ver Ka.
Edit: I forgot that I also really like the Alex 2.0
You really gotta update this for the MG Barbatos
So far, my favorite master grade (my first and only so far) Is the MG Gundam Barbatos. Any recommendations?
I'd suggest the MG Destiny Extreme Burst. It was my favorite and quickest build. The effect parts are excellent especially the wings of light. Also, I enjoy the fact that all of the joints are chromed unlike the MG Strike Freedom. One other fun build for me is the MG Epyon. Love design and the heat whip/rod actually has a strong hold for dynamic posing.
MG Sandrock Gundam Ew Ver.
You can make a pose like Kratos~
Friendly reminder:
the song you played for shin musha is more of a Chinese style BGM. Shin Musha is definitely Japanese.
Nice Video though
It is a bit too late to change it tho but thank you for the input and enjoying it
No problem! Keep up the good work! I like your videos
Trying to figure out why the Jesta is missing it's bicep armor...
Lost in a inter states moving
I haven't built many MG, but I am really excited to build the Barbatos. My favourite MG I have is either the Jesta or Qan [T] variant. A spec ops grunt that has a rugged but simple design, and a character suit with simple asymmetrical design.
However, I am eagerly awaiting a 2.0 of the Super Gundam or Ground Type. Those just speak to me on some level.
Mg barbatos is the only mg I've built now. And the inner frame is so satisfying to build. The torso part is the most exciting part of the build for me.
I feel like I am watching sportscenter
Im not a sport guy, i only watch the ufc, i stumble on sport centre this week and saw their top 10 transition. You are so right haha
I haven't built any MG yet, but I heard Barbatos is one of the best!
I have not built it
depend which series a person like.. Barbatos is good for movement but it hard to get good detail on Nu gundam since it a Ka version...
Haven't built an MG yet, but i'm considering Char's Gelgoog 2.0 as my first one
Good list. I still want to get the dynames one day. I just have to take a break for now as i have an empty wallet
What is some people take on the MG Barbatos, and the Impulses?
the jesta hands are 3.0 because it comes from the rx78 3.0 also when it comes to the stein I got all three I want to put the sinanju backpack on the stein because I dont like the one it comes with
Nice! I've been doing hgs lately and am finishing a rg 00 raiser right now. Then I have my first pg(red frame Kai) sitting downstairs in the box. My plans were to back it up to a mg after I finish that beast and I will definitely refer to this list when choosing. :)
Why there is no gundam freedom 2.0 in the list i think it was a very unique MG having those beautiful wide wings
Because as mentionned in the list i think the MG Justice was better than the MG freedom 2.0 even if they use the same frame
What's the song you used for the opening of this video?
Peoples needs to chill out regarding the Barbatos they already said he haven't built it yet. You are all acting like it's the best thing since sliced breads.
It's good, not a holy grail kit but good.
@@bigbear4120 the MG barbatos is really that good though
Currently building my sinanju ver. Ka and it's my first mg after a while
Is MG Nu Ver Ka better than RG Nu?
My #1 favorite is 1/100 PMX-003 The O
MG Jegan will always be my favorite
Nu Gundam is not a gunpla, its an ART PIECE
MG Barbatos should be in this list
I have not built it. Cannot included something that i did not experience.
@@GunplaNetwork I recommend it. And when you do you will have a different top 10. I guarantee it.
MG justice is my favorite
Bro what about the master grade Red Astray Kai?
I'm going to be working on the Shin Musha Gundam MG but my favorite Gundam is the Gundam GP 01
Just built this, amazing for £40 great green body parts, not for beginners.
im finding my first rg what should i buy
Oo raiser
Unicorn gundam
Unicorn
Think I’m just gonna buy a master grade for my first and just take my time with it
Thats the spirit, take your time and enjoy
