One of my favorite kits. My wife hasn't seen the anime and asks me why I like such a fat yellow robot? "Well back in the day... There was this Arcade 4 player game called Gundam vs Zeta Gundam....."
Like your videos, been a while took a break from Gunpla. I didn't know you had MG theO, glad for the recommendation I have the HG kit its old but I like it, im just a sucker for the design. I'll have to watch the painted conclusion vid next...
Thank you very much!! I actually really like the HG The O kit, and it wouldn't take that much TLC to detail it and jazz it up a bit! I think the hands and a few hollow/empty spaces would be the biggest spots to focus on. Maybe I'll do that one day :)
It's slated for reprint this year, for instance, weve preordered them at work, but with the ways releases have been delayed these days.... it's hard to say!
@@LiamsHobbyRoom I'm doing the mg psycho zaku at moment, the decals have to be soaked in warm water for about 2 mins then take them out and leave them for further 3 minutes for them to start moving.
Always confused why Bandai makes the The-O smaller than it is. A HG kit would share the size with the Xi and Penelope 😅 Man I love The-O, great review 🧡 Sad it was only in 6 Episodes.
Thank you! Glad you like the channel! I hope to be making more content as soon as time allows! Regarding decal: I'm guessing you pronounce it "dee-cal?" In Canada, the proper (ie. British) way to pronounce the word is "decal," which is almost monosyllabic. In the USA, they say "dee-cal" which, to a Canadian, is whacky-tobbacy. Just like here our spelling of the word "colour" has a letter U, and Americans spell it without. Just a cultural difference 😁
@@LiamsHobbyRoom you learn something new everyday! Had no idea there was a different way to pronounce decal. I brought this up to my wife and she mentioned it’s probably because Americans use a double emphasis on words like decal which linguistically is pretty dumb - but of course is correct sounding to me due to exposure. Either way - I look forward to more content!

Haha wow that takes me back!!
This kit needs a 2.0 or a Ver.Ka!
That would be cool! I'd settle for a reprint these days haha
You can dream lol.
It's coming in verka

Really want one but can't find this anywhere anymore... Hope Bandai gets the hint and starts printing these w/ that 2nd factory they're building.

@@LiamsHobbyRoom quick question, but is Bluefin also the Bandai distributor for Canada?
@@LiamsHobbyRoom is it really being reprinted?? can't find anything about it. great video btw
Not sure if youre still looking or are located in the US, but I just picked up the reprint from Barnes and Noble oddly enough
@@90sHighSpeed that's really good to know. Did you order online or was it in store?
That thing is a beast!
It sure is!!
I just imagine if The-O has the groin beam saber?
Hahahaha
Hey, Liam, let me get an update on his kitchen man. You say you're gonna paint it.
Kitchen? I'm not sure but here's the painted The O video!!
ua-cam.com/video/v6HfKl_A1Rk/v-deo.htmlsi=j-AfMMbUAVV0frLo
I like the conhead of the THE-O
Me too! So silly, gives me Dan Aykroyd vibes
They still didn't make the mini arms rotate sideways
Yeah, they have limited articulation, but by manipulating the skirt armor they get a bigger range of movement.
those glasses are super cool
Just asking, I’m a huge fan of this kit, where did you source this model kit? Thanks if you can respond.
A friend of mine had it and wanted me to paint it for him! Unfortunately Bandai hasn't exported this kit in a hot minute!
@@LiamsHobbyRoom Thanks for the feedback! I hope Bandai gets this kit back on the shelves soon!
this kit is as underrated as gundam x
It's a beautiful kit for sure, requires lots of work - but the finished result is worth it!!
Klu Klux Klan vibe MS if it was painted white
Now I can't unsee it
Well Over.on is a white The O (with a gundam inside it.)
I buy those waterslides, i find the bandai ones just more difficult to work with.
Agreed!

Lore dump, i like. Lil back story helps the review for me.
Good to know!!
The v-fin glasses are dope. Where did you get them? Ooh or did you make them?
Haha thank you! I made those some years ago. I had them signed by Tooru Furuya! But they do desperately need a refurbishing or a new version.
Looks good Liam, can't wait to see the O once it's finished.
Thank you!!
The HGUC The O comes with four yellow curved MG beam sabers.
I should add that despite being a 20 year old kit, HGUC The O is a pretty nice kit.
Sweet ty!
Great video!
Thank you!!
How much is this now at 2024? nice review learned a lot.
Thanks! Not sure, it hasn't been in production for a long time. That means you'd be getting it on secondary market, so probably very expensive.

Man I love The-O, great review 🧡 Sad it was only in 6 Episodes.
Yeah its a super unique MS! It never seemed that much bigger to me on screen, but I'm all for a bigger The O!
@@LiamsHobbyRoom Bandai don't give the Qubeley and The-O not much love for being two of the big four of Zeta. :(
Explain to me why you pronounce decal the way you do. I’m genuinely curious. Like, you’ve got to be kidding right? Also - subbed. Love your channel!

Haha yeah I get flak for it, but that's how I say it and I will never ever change
