Sitara = Star Kaneshiya = Ganesha Karwa Chauth = A traditional Indian festival, where married woman fast for the day, and pray for their partner's long life. Never thought I'd see a kit that uses Indian customs and rituals as a highlight. Either way, a cool kit
So I found out what they mean by small stature, she’s not just small compared to her gear she’s legitimately tiny. She’s 148cm, so about 4’10” Damn cute though. You say Egyptian, but given her name Sitara, the fact that one of her weapons is a vajra, and her super mode is Ganesha, I think it’s abundantly clear that she’s supposed to be Indian.
I’ve always liked the reviews for these kits weirdly I’ve never really been into them but this one might be the kit that changes that! This thing is dope!
Get a good bottle of silicone oil (thick oils such as 5000 CST for ball joints and thin oils for sealed joints) and they will last for years with good maintenance. Oh yeah, sand those pegs and joints if they are starting to creak!
12:28 Planning to get this for my next project. I think I might try making the loincloth out of real cloth. Cut that part down to just the curving part at the top including the pegs, and just glue the cloth on top of it.
A great kit indeed! From the rear picture, kinda reminded me of the Aegis Gundam, and i think you mean as a middle eastern type look on the figure, and yes I agree, it makes it look different from the other kits(in a great way)
Her design is referencing Indian btw, her name Kaneshiya is referencing Ganesha, the elephant head god, which her original equipment also references it with its size and the elephant feet. Due to her being a shortstack, her nickname in the fandom is "elephant tits".
Dang, I kind of fell in love with this as Zack was reviewing it and then he suggested that it would be a good first Mecha musume kit and I was like damn I'm definitely going to get it for my first kit. turns out it came out October 2019 and has been out of stock pretty much everywhere 😢
This kit is really beautiful. The armor parts mixed with the girl look amazing. I’m going to pre order the new one although the color and style on the original looks better in my opinion. The full body suit on the newer one looks sleek. My Sol Raptor needs an opponent. Thanks for the review 👍.
I really need to get one of these, and I'm really considering getting Sitara. She looks really good. Will you do a side by side with Kaede once you get both done?
From what I can recall in this version, this isn’t actually her gear. This is just her “skinny” variant. Her actual gear is much bigger (Ganesha ver.) It revealed a prototype version of it in an expo last year I think...but due to its mass size, it falls off. It’s THAT big lol XD
@@GarethXL kinda weird why they didnt do that first before this one ^^; Im no AGA player but ive seen their anime opening and in the brief shot, Sitara is wielding Ganesha, not KC. Though is it the same as her Tenki variant is something ill have to wait. Its the same with Aika and the other one. Most probably theyll release their alternates too in the future
@@curepanda2646 because it's extremely heavy, at least from the shots from the last wondercon if i remember correctly it requires multiple base with the thick gunpla base stands just to held it up though hope its sold only as an option upgrade, the last thing i need is for a kit to go over 15k yen
Kotobukiya also produced some ZOE kits a kong time ago. Bought the Jehuty plastic kit. Sadly, as in usual Kotobukiya kits, it suffered "Kotobukiya Joint Syndrome".The joints are fragile. Lost several FA girls and Megami Devices kits due to broken joints.
I don't usually get into these but I really like this one. Also not really into ridiculously over the top kibble, but again, I just can't NOT like this lol.
we need more tan and dark skin mecha musume kit like this
Just paint them 4head
Sitara = Star
Kaneshiya = Ganesha

Check out the Tenki version while preorders are still available
There's a even bigger version that looks awesome in prototype stage: Kaneshiya Sitara Ver. Ganesha
Anyone interested in owning Megami Device/FA Girls, please take extra care when moving the head/wrist/hair joints. Its very thin and fragile.

Now I really want to get started on mine

Only found out about this from the game coming to switch march 2023 in the west. Looks really cool!
On articulation, should show the complete hole that is created when bending her torso up.
Took ya long enough to get this video out, Zak! I love that editing, really light-hearted. Embrace the *Windows Error*

now that you mention it, her big wing boosters does look like Elephant ears. hehehe
I'm thinking of buying this kit for sure now! Thanks for the review
I bought the black version too.
I’ll be reviewing the Tenki version soon!

Get the Tenki version coming out soon! Preorder available at USA Gundam Store, just saying 😉
@@ZakuAurelius awesome that you guys linked the pre-order on the vid! But what's the release date??
Matthew Hisey September I believe!
This kit does look awesome ! I myself do like the cat ears and tail !! But yeah overall great balance of girl and machinery !
Very nice review! What color would you recommend for the armor?

I will waiting her Ganesha Ver., her original gear (the armors are called alice gears/gears) it's gonna be HUGE.
What is the height of the base form?
Tanned Sol Strike Raptor and Sitara both getting along just fine. xD
Hopefully we get a part 2 of the Megami Device sweater soon
It feels like more of a letterman jacket to me.
@@alvinyu5387 Well jacket is right but I dont think it looks like a letterman. More like a track suit jacket.
Chronos Ah right, that’s what I was thinking of. Nothing some paint can’t fix though.
Thankyou for the review !
9:55 she is indian
I really need to get one of these, and I'm really considering getting Sitara. She looks really good. Will you do a side by side with Kaede once you get both done?
This is really a cool kit.
how many runner you want in your kit
koto: YES, A-Z
Then after z add numbers

yes, her original gear basically the GP03 of the series

Still hoping they make the full version

though hope its sold only as an option upgrade, the last thing i need is for a kit to go over 15k yen
GarethXL you and me both buddy. Seriously, her casual look is frickin expensive, moreso than this one
I shouldn't have waited so long to get this kit , It's sold out everywhere .
This more than anything before reminds me of Zone Of The Enders. And I wish there was more stuff like that lol
Z.O.E REVOLTECH AMAZING

The game she's from plays like budget ZOE, too.
Egyptian. Good call. I was thinking "sexy mecha nun".
this one kit has become so damn rare, price is sky high
include the asra nine tails and bk lancer as well
Nice now i want get 1
Every time I see huge those hand trees I can't help but think of the amount of wasted plastic.
Look very nice!
A "windy day" bwa haha xD
I don't usually get into these but I really like this one. Also not really into ridiculously over the top kibble, but again, I just can't NOT like this lol.
I wish they offered just the girl part of the kits.
can you giveaway several gunpla that not already build
by the way she is meant to be Indian not Egyptian.
