Thank you for the review. I’m looking to make my Gundam OC’s Custom Zaku I commander and was going to go with the Origins Kit but the lack of a commander antenna was a deal breaker. This kit seems like it still holds up.
Well, if you’re gonna be painting it anyway, you might as well either steal a commander antenna from another kit or find the Builder Parts MS Blade set, which gives you several commander fins to choose from. Just glue em on and you’re done.
I have always preferred the Zaku II, looks wise, but Zaku I has grown on me, and it does have less weighing it down, even if it's canonically slower, too, I think, since I think it has fewer thrusters, but it is going to have an easier time, model mobility-wise. While not all that practical, I kinda like the "Chocobo feet", as Prime92 calls them.
Yeah, you're right. And I'll always love the Zaku II, myself, I think he's got a good balance. Zaku I is neat, but looks kinda like a duck since he doesn't have the armor or tubes balance out that head, and the monoeye is blocked a little, which seems inconvenient.
Do you know if the accessories are any different? I don't have Guntank or Guncannon, and you can never have too many RX-78-2s, so I might get this, if only to save on shipping!
that makes sense, though wouldn't the weight difference be negligible in space? Then the Zaku II would be faster, right? On the surface though, Zaku I might have the edge, even if he sacrifices a lot of armor.
Arrowdodger not really even in zero g weight plays a big part as their is always gravity In some way. Without taking into account micro gravity weight effects acceleration
The Zaku I has already been pre-ordered =3 The Zaku Sniper is a model kit I'll eventually get(as in: I still have a bit of money left that month and it happens to be in stock =P )
I just noticed how amazing the thumbnail is.
Real
The thumbnail always catches me off guard every time this gets recommend to me lol
The one thing that would have made the origin version perfect: Commander Antenna.
Or a spare shoulder part for the other side
wow i was not expecting this from a zaku I .Thank you for making this reveiw .
I know this video is old as hell now but it just helped me pick my new suit
Just like the Zaku I, old doesn't always have to be outdated.
The zudah was the best until it blew itself up because it outsped 3 gms and they blew up before the zudah did in ms igloo
Really advanced kit for its time. The articulation is crazy good for such an old one.

@ good point.thanks for the advice
@@matmusada But yeah, the old Zaku I is still very much a worthy purchase.

Something tells me MCPO Matt Austin would be proud.
I actually love the design of the Zaku 1.

the zudah is a great kit for starters. its also great kit
I almost hope you mess up more often, that technical difficulties screen is just hilarious
Always a fan for the Zaku design, especially the original. Plan on getting two Zaku I for custom shoulders ^_^
So THAT'S what the weird shoulder pad is for!
I prefer having my Zakus as grunts without the horn unless it's an Ace's custom.
Is this the same size as the hguc 1/144 rx-78-2 revive?
gotta remember that the HGUC GunCannon was the 1st HGUC they made. If they redid the GunCannon, it would be a buy for me.
WE'VE GOTTEN ONE DANGEROUS INDIVIDUAL HERE!
I really like the look of this suit, but the Black Tri-Star color scheme looks better in my opinion.
Kakarot do you need to pay for 1999's shipping?
I bought this kit 2 times and i have the Tri version type too
I love gunpla kits that has lots of accessories AND can store them on the model itself
I like non commander type zaku, make it more bad ass for me, but might make commander type maybe if I decide to make a team of zaku lol.
I have 2 of them, building a zeon army
Yeesssss DO IT!
@@costcocombopizza8229 should see my collection now, the feddies would be soaking their panties
I build 23 kits in the past 3 months
23 Zaku Is!?
Saaaaame, so far
hguc standard Zaku 2
Black Tristar Ortega Zaku 2Origin
Char Zaku 2 origin
shin matsunaga custom Zaku 2

My gods this is 10y old Holly molly
I see that thumbnail in my feed
Operation V set? What is that? Been really wanting a GunCannon, so you have piqued my interest.
Ay! its not the worst MS 😑 respect the zeons bro
Adam Aiman well the zaku 1 is pretty good in the beginning of the OYW.But later on it would be replaced with better ms.
I like it but it needs a standish color like 8th ms team. Speaking of 8th ms team WHYYYYYY OH GAWWD WHHYYYYYYY
Good mod,I like that^=^
it's a shame this kit doesn't come with a second Shoulderpad, cuz I would totally create a custom based on the Zaku I from Zeonic Front.
You can still do so by buying a second Zaku I, the shoulders can be swapped ;)
True, or get some salmon and red paint and give Char is own RX
Are you by any chance going to get the Thunderbolt Zaku I when it comes out? Or the Zaku Sniper?
The Zaku I has already been pre-ordered =3
The Zaku Sniper is a model kit I'll eventually get(as in: I still have a bit of money left that month and it happens to be in stock =P )
hehe, my thoughts on it, more or less. it's neat, but it isn't a priority
Nice thumbnail
Anime fanservice moment in the thumbnail
bruh... that thumbnail...
The Zaku I is only utter crap in the hands of a green pilot...
Bruh thumd nail
I know its suposed to look old... but this kit looks like an absolute peace of shit xD
"Piece"
GlaciusX2 No you
