They did use an automation system to assemble and configure the psycho zaku in the OVA, same with the three Zeongs at the end. The only manpower I'd imagine is just the MS control programming really.
Its easier to manufacture large projects like this in low gravity environments but I cant think of any methods to refine and develop materials to build things up there, like how would blast furnaces work up there? 0__o
When in doubt, slap a massive colony...err I mean thruster tank.....onto a Zaku's back and call it a day. Also, am I the only one who sees a directional arrow when viewing the backpack sideways?
Basically. Federation; Rolls out Full Armor Gundam and destroys a couple Doms and some Zakus. Zeon: WHAT IF WE MADE SOMETHING BIGGER Literally straps an entire shuttle rocket booster to the back of a Zaku.
Awg Azim Erhm... its a *Spec-ops.... ground gundam,hell its not confirmed what those are made of aside from gundam heads.... but from the looks of it theyre gm in space and upgraded with ground gundam in the spartan
Hi, thanks for the videos really enjoyed them !! You spoke about modifying the hands so you could used the zaku 2.0 hands and you are right you can easily do it and it looks ok. There is a video already on how to do it on youtube so if you interested let me know will send the link and may be you could add it to the description. Just don't want to past links to other channels hear as I know some youtubers don't like that
This thing looks spectacular, I want one. Porbably won't bother with any of the fuel tanks though, especially the big one in the center. i think the backpack itself with the arms is the coolest thing anyway, plus the striking colours of the mobile suit. Also, can the arms on the back hold the bazooka's? or is the weight too much
if you want the normal power cables then you want the power cables from a normal 2.0 Zaku II, the power cables for the High Mobility Zaku II are a different shape because that kit has a different backpack.
Yeah after some time the base of the thing just gives. Fell from my top shelf thank God I got the pieces back together, and only the base broke. Any suggestion as to how I can mount this monstrosity? Any third party base that I can use? TIA.
I can use some of that extra arms so i can hold 2 cup of difererent beverages at the same time and drink it while cycling without loosing control of the bike..
A great kit but has really bad nub placements (shoulder shield). I painted this model with Rustoleum spray paint (Colonial Red gloss). The rest with Tamiya sprays. I thought the gold parts sucked in terms of color and I ripped the plastic garbage bag covers on the waist pipes. It's basically a red Zaku with a massive backpack. I personally love it.
It's funny when you think about it, all the thruster tanks and weapons are just add ons for the actuall psycho-zaku proper. It's just the mobile suit and the backpack that are the actual psycho-zaku since everything else is in essence a throw away weapon or utility in the movie/show.
Mat SukaZe the fact it might break your heart litterally and gave you a stroke if you put this on your guest room when a kid touch in and it fall like glass
hey mr zak, i wonder can you switch the mechanical hand to the bottom part of the backpack (white rail thing) ? is the part are same?, it will be interesting if we can do that...*psssttt Dr. "zaku" octopus ;) good review as always btw
itsrifahanif hi you cant actually just switch the arm to the bottom white part on the back pack the 2 white parts on the top are different to the ones on the bottom. You might be able to swap the top part around to the bottom though. I have the kit just not built and looking at the instructions you can see the parts differ , they also talk about it in another youtube channel.
Master grade all the way. It is incredibly expensive but once you complete it, it is worth the money. Same with the Full armor MAster Grade. Finished it a month ago. My friends just keep eye raping it. lol
Melvindog 8 those MG Dom hands would have been too big looking (personally I think the ones included with this kit already look a little large. But I prefer swappable hands to articulated fingers anyway, there's really no point to have the fingers articulated
The most realistic Gundam series but the most unrealistic backpack designs. I wouldn’t say I’m mad tho. The fa-78 and psycho zaku are the BEST MOBILE SUITS. Change my mind
@@Double_Zeta If I remember right in the anime, the fuel tanks have explosive pressure bolts that literally fling it off the back. Daryl burns through the top fuel tank during his assault on the Moore Brotherhood's fleet and we see it go zipping away. So that probably helps. Also, more than likely? Its just one of those things you have to DEAL WITH (TM) When it comes to piloting a mobile suit. An unavoidable danger. If you cant get the tank off fast enough, that sucks. But its no different than being in a Core Block armed suit and not getting the Core Fighter free in time. Which...actually happens in the show too. A GM with a Core Block takes a hit from a laser and pilot ATTEMPTS to escape, but the Minkovsky Generator in the GM blows up and takes him with it.
This kit is also missing all the bazooka ammo packs it’s supposed to have and the bazookas are supposed to go on top of the top fuel tank. Bandai paid no attention to continuity in this kit lol and he uses all three bazookas it comes with but you can’t attach them anywhere? What the fuck Bandai. He uses 280mm, 360mm, and the beam bazooka but only the 360’s go on the back pack
lol a 'True mg model' the fucking Freedom 2.0 one of the best kits released recently IF NOT ever uses fixed posed hands and it works well. that's just nitpicking on your part lol
i dont like it :/ overkill. Design wise if I want to blow it away i just aim for the fuel tank and with all the ammo it carries and fuel it will destroy everything in a huge area
This pathetic kit lost me at the hands and I bought this kit. They pretty much gave us the 2.0 zaku hands. Modification of this kit is a must given its not a Master Grade without fully moving parts.
![613 - HGTB Zaku II and Big Gun [Gundam Thunderbolt Anime Ver.] (OOB Review)](/img/n.gif)
You do not mount the backpack to the Zaku. You mount the Zaku to the backpack LOL
yep, that's it!
allbluedream In Zeon Side 3, Fuel tanks mounts you
this is a nice kit. a huge backpack with free mobile suit
MoChan.Official xD
The skirt of the mobile suit is annoying AF
🤣🤣🤣
"They have a Full Armor Gundam, we have a Full Armory Zaku"
In the Gundam Universal Century timeline, you have to imagine how much manpower and resources it took to build this thing. Like, damn.
They did use an automation system to assemble and configure the psycho zaku in the OVA, same with the three Zeongs at the end. The only manpower I'd imagine is just the MS control programming really.
CommandantAlpha Okay then.
A good bit of parts would have been prefabricated thanks to the United Maintenance plan standardizing reactors and stuff.
Its easier to manufacture large projects like this in low gravity environments but I cant think of any methods to refine and develop materials to build things up there, like how would blast furnaces work up there? 0__o
@@treewizard6484 yea no oxygen for combustion. Maybe they have very efficient ways of separating the oxygen out of water. Good bit of ice in space.
When in doubt, slap a massive colony...err I mean thruster tank.....onto a Zaku's back and call it a day.
Also, am I the only one who sees a directional arrow when viewing the backpack sideways?
Haha, now I see it too. Big arrow telling you to "PLACE ZAKU HERE".
CommandantAlpha We need a big gun backpack
I'd really want a 1/144 colony model haha. Not that I can afford a house to display it
Just when i thought the Full Armor Gundam was massive...
Damn Zeon and Federation really do compete with everything they could.
Basically.
Federation; Rolls out Full Armor Gundam and destroys a couple Doms and some Zakus.
Zeon: WHAT IF WE MADE SOMETHING BIGGER
Literally straps an entire shuttle rocket booster to the back of a Zaku.
really is wild how its named "high mobility" yet its massive in size and is holding a mini armory
Way in the future but it make more sense if you think this is in space not atmosphere
with a bunch of thrusters
Man thunderbolt really has some of the coolest designs!
Ikr! 😂
A Zaku worthy for Zakuaurelius!
lol, indeed!
That´s not a backpack, it´s a satelite! Mine´s getting shipped in 3 times faster than normal! Wait, wrong Zaku...
Just finished this thing today. Took me like a MONTH (on and off). Feels GOOD.
It's amazing how big it is !!!
That's what she said.
I love the design. I have to say though that the giant beam bazooka is different in design from the one that came with the MG Rick Dom.
RFAurora Yeah I noticed that while building it, since a lot of the parts are on new runners
all we need now is mg daryl lorenz acguy ver ka and mg atlas gundam ver ka for season two.
Awg Azim i actually want to see those GM's, they look pretty damn good lol
Neptune totally forgot about those GM gundam head unit! those look pretty cool too.
Awg Azim Erhm... its a *Spec-ops.... ground gundam,hell its not confirmed what those are made of aside from gundam heads.... but from the looks of it theyre gm in space and upgraded with ground gundam in the spartan
from certain angles it looks like the Zaku is playing the bagpipes.
Underrated comment right here

justin fourie hey man! Thanks for asking first! By all means post up the link! That's useful info for me and others too!
The Zaku its self looks great but that backpack makes it look amazing! Do you like it?
MixMasterBoon I like it!
Holy.... Its huge compared to my measly MG Strike Gundam
lol, yeah for sure.
This thing looks spectacular, I want one. Porbably won't bother with any of the fuel tanks though, especially the big one in the center. i think the backpack itself with the arms is the coolest thing anyway, plus the striking colours of the mobile suit.
Also, can the arms on the back hold the bazooka's? or is the weight too much
Takes Ridden's Full Bullet Zaku to the next level
Super cool Weaponized rocket with a free Zaku.
Stolen comment lol
Nice of them to include a free zaku with the Rocket backpack ver ka
if you want the normal power cables then you want the power cables from a normal 2.0 Zaku II, the power cables for the High Mobility Zaku II are a different shape because that kit has a different backpack.
How do those baby arms even reach all the weapons on the back pack? They’re too short to even grab some shit
“How many guns do you need?” Zaku: “YES!”
Yeah after some time the base of the thing just gives. Fell from my top shelf thank God I got the pieces back together, and only the base broke. Any suggestion as to how I can mount this monstrosity? Any third party base that I can use? TIA.
Does it come with the stand?
Out of curiosity, what is the length of the backpack with all the attachments? I’m trying to see if this one would fit in one slot in my glass case
the Zaku is the accessory for the backpack
Wonder how it would look green...
I can use some of that extra arms so i can hold 2 cup of difererent beverages at the same time and drink it while cycling without loosing control of the bike..
Absolutely!
Is there a pg psycho zaku?
Can the back pack be displayed even without the big middle piece?
Psycho Zaku Ver.Ka vs Gundam Thunderbolt Ver.Ka personally I think Thunderbolt is batter but overall there both amazing kits
A great kit but has really bad nub placements (shoulder shield). I painted this model with Rustoleum spray paint (Colonial Red gloss). The rest with Tamiya sprays. I thought the gold parts sucked in terms of color and I ripped the plastic garbage bag covers on the waist pipes. It's basically a red Zaku with a massive backpack. I personally love it.

Can you put the bazookas on top of the fuel tank like the HG version?
SilverBullet I don't think it would be solid, but I'm sure at most it would just take a tiny bit of modification.
Such a huge backpack.
boss ZakuAurelius can the big fuel tank be taken off?? like the hg, the two smaller fuel tanks support each other without the big tank. Just curious
You can take off entire backpack. Just watch review part 1
JAYSON KEITH SARNO yes, you can have just the two smaller tanks without the giant one if you want
+ZakuAurelius Thnx a bunch hehehe
im gonna get this kit asap!
did you use gundam marker gold for the thruster bells???
AnyOtherName LikeMashugana you should watch his unboxing video... because this is just a straight build, no paint, all plastic
Christopher Grisham im sorry the bell thrusters gold looked really good i thought it was the same color as the inner frame if the strike freedom
Query: Can it feasibly hold the laser bazooka under the arm?
Md. Rafiuzzaman Bokhari probably not. Definitely not in any way that looks good
That's too bad. I thought maybe it could at least do that really well like it did in the show. Q__Q
Thanks for the info! :-)
Thing i don't like is it's colour the zaku isn't bright red it was this nice shade of maroon
So whats the kit of the year?
is this a kit worth the trouble building?
i dont know what i want now... should i ger this or the sazabi????
Soohoon Choi : sazabi of course.. for me
Soohoon Choi I chose the Sazabi ver Ka, it was a tough choice, though. I can't wait to get it.
Yeah that's tough. The Sazabi is probably the better bet overall. But if you love this then get it!
How bad is the seam line in the big mIn booster ?
Seamline incorporated with panel line. They are good
Grant Henderson yeah, not an issue cause it's disguised as a panel line.
should i buy this ?? SHOULD I ??
YES!
ZakuAurelius the true has been spoken !!!
Is the psycho zaku for sale?
My painted finished kit? It’s sold!
this thing scares me in so many ways
LuckySolshot how
Mat SukaZe the fact it might break your heart litterally and gave you a stroke if you put this on your guest room when a kid touch in and it fall like glass
lol. same thought here..how bout putting it somewhere high that kids cant reach or put it inside a glass
where do you buy these kits?
amazon, hobby link japan, any hobby shop that would happen to sell gunpla *might have it in stock
hey mr zak, i wonder can you switch the mechanical hand to the bottom part of the backpack (white rail thing) ? is the part are same?, it will be interesting if we can do that...*psssttt Dr. "zaku" octopus ;) good review as always btw

I think you're best way to hold the beam rifle up is by cheating and using the articulated arm and you could clip it on the scope.
i want this! but sadly $109 isnt in my price range lol
Wow, in malaysia it cost more than rm300
how long this figure with backpack ?
LONG!
CM ? i want make glass display for this but idk how long is this
How's the base that came with the kit? Will it be less shaky with an Action Base?
Jin probably not less shaky, no.
Planning on making a custom too, but what would you recommend, this or the HG version?
Master grade all the way. It is incredibly expensive but once you complete it, it is worth the money. Same with the Full armor MAster Grade. Finished it a month ago. My friends just keep eye raping it. lol
Wait.... so a 120 or so dollar zaku model doesn't have possible finger? They could've just used the hand from the MG dom kit...
Melvindog 8 those MG Dom hands would have been too big looking (personally I think the ones included with this kit already look a little large. But I prefer swappable hands to articulated fingers anyway, there's really no point to have the fingers articulated
The most realistic Gundam series but the most unrealistic backpack designs. I wouldn’t say I’m mad tho.
The fa-78 and psycho zaku are the BEST MOBILE SUITS. Change my mind
I mean when your fighting in deep space, weight and shape are no limitations. No atmosphere, no gravity...nothing but vacuum.
Killer Orca, that’s a good argument but what happens if your thruster gets hit and you cannot detach it fast enough ?
Victor G, poopy head
@@Double_Zeta If I remember right in the anime, the fuel tanks have explosive pressure bolts that literally fling it off the back. Daryl burns through the top fuel tank during his assault on the Moore Brotherhood's fleet and we see it go zipping away.

Killer Orca, I see so risk for reward. You won the argument gg.
do you know where i can buy this ?
any shop selling gunpla...
you know what nvm xD just being paranoid me
this guy has a backpack larger than itself.
I sprung for the HGUC version, the MG is too big.
I know I’m late but I just got mine lol 🤙
Sasabi or this zaku?
Is this better than the Full Armor Gundam (Thunderbolt ver) ver Ka?
ohh my good!!!
GUNDAM MODEL GUNPLA is that supposed to be read in a MaxinBady voice?
OCHIRO GANDAMUU!
This kit is also missing all the bazooka ammo packs it’s supposed to have and the bazookas are supposed to go on top of the top fuel tank.

this kitt is so ridicoulus really all the weapons and it is soo huge. I want one but I have no space sadly
aw its so big
freakin' huge!
Well you could say
This is no Zaku boy NO ZAKU
The only problem that I got with this kit is the F*&king hand!!! FFS just give us the option to use the 2.0 hands
holy shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhvhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhv
a cool design but man it looks so strange in kit form. just so many pieces that seem prone to falling off
magnifique *0*
That's a lot of gear. I'm going to throw up.
If world war 2 involved mechas.... would be so cool but also quite dangerous :3
A true mg model should have hands with moveable fingers.
Yanfui Yu lots of MG kits have fixed-pose fingers.
ZakuAurelius Mg kit go backward if they solve problem by simply using fixed pose fingers
Yanfui Yu they had to follow a budget
Yanfui Yu Poseable hands suck. They can never hold weapons well.
lol a 'True mg model' the fucking Freedom 2.0 one of the best kits released recently IF NOT ever uses fixed posed hands and it works well. that's just nitpicking on your part lol
I want to like this design, but god do I hate that backpack.
i dont like it :/ overkill. Design wise if I want to blow it away i just aim for the fuel tank and with all the ammo it carries and fuel it will destroy everything in a huge area
Well thats if you can land a shot
boi boi that thing is huge :p
Did you watch the movie? It's fairly fast.
Haven't watched it truth be said but I still think it's overkill hehe
This pathetic kit lost me at the hands and I bought this kit. They pretty much gave us the 2.0 zaku hands. Modification of this kit is a must given its not a Master Grade without fully moving parts.
TekkaSage you sound like your saying this kit is absolute crap which it really isn't it's pretty. Awesome
TekkaSage i dunno, personally I only wanna use the 2.0 hands so that I can have open expressive hands. The fixed fingers work better for holding stuff
'iT's nOt A MaStER GrAdE wiThOuT fUlLY mOvInG PaRtS.'
You spend a lot of time moaning about the backpack and the size of the thing. This strikes me as completely missing the point.
Your videos are waaay too long.
I love the kits design but I'm gonna be honest, I hated the build
