    The "Liao Ya" thing is Chinese, and it should be pronounced with a hard L sound. It translates into the science/clinical definition of "fangs", as in those two pairs of longest and sharpest teeth that we and some other animals have.
    Edit: lol so someone just reminded me that those pairs of teeth are actually called canines. He's 100% right, and as an English major, I am so ashamed.

    13:05 If you take a closer look, the Altron's entire arm actually separates from the body as it holds up the Dragon attachment. The assembly that connects it to the shoulder pops out of nowhere and wouldn't mechanically fit as something that is hidden inside the Altron with the intention of extending out.

    You can tell how much Gaikotsu loves a model kit when he takes the time to panel line it. I'm not even talking about the minimalist panel lines he does on kits that need to to look a little better. I'm talking about kits that build and look good and he says, "you know what? This looks amazing, and it deserves to be polished up".

    Shenlong gundam is based on Chinese style armour, and "Shenlong" is 神龙 (The God Dragon) in Mandarin. The origin of Liaoya is General Guan's weapon 青龙偃月刀 (Azure Dragon Boardsword) aka Guandao from a Chinese novel "The Romance of Three Kingdoms". This Chinese novel has great influence among east Asian countries. So the Guandao weapon unit should be pronounced in the Madarin way "Liaoya" XD

    All of the EW kits seem fairly solid. My D-scythe Hell is the only one I've had an issue with, the ankles eventually giving out with the weight of the cloak/wings. Other than that, it's all minor gripes. Heavyarms needing an additional upper left arm/elbow so you could pick between having the normal arm or the beam saber arm from the Tallgeese fight episode, or the P-Bandai Sandrock not coming with the clear red blade effect parts the standard release did.

I think it would be nice to have a review for your old built gunpla especially when you're in a hurry so that the new unbuilt gunpla have more deeper and detailed review while the old ones are still reviewed. More content and more gunplas that are reviewed the better.

    Love Shenlong my 3rd fave Gundam Wing mobile Suit of that sires purely cause of that Dragon arm weapon there’s nothing more satisfying than shooting out that monster chomping down your opponents then roasting them alive 😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎. I love this version’s sword but I don’t like how it sacrifices its bad ass articulation with the Dragon arm seriously that was such an awesome feature that should never be forgotten & the evolution of Shenlong or as Chan calls him otoku that one has 2 dragon arms that twice as deadly twice as awesome. That doesn’t mean I hate this kit tho don’t get me wrong it’s I wish the arm could extend out like from the anime which was the only Gundam anime I’ve watched I don’t dislike others at all it’s I live in the uk 🇬🇧 & it showing on Toonami back when CartoonNetwork was awesome those days I missed 😢. Anyways love your reviews dude I’m very impressed on how much you put in these videos & the info you share actually helps me out a lot cause I love Giant fighting robots a lot beautifully designed armor & crazy amazingly weaponry what’s not to like 👍.
    Kind Regards AuraKnight
    P.S My 1st fave from Gundam Wing has to be Wing Gundam & Wing Zero respectfully cause it’s sort like an evolution so I count both as the same line & My 2nd fave Heavyarms let’s face a Giant beam Gatling machine gun & a Shit tone of Missile launchers what’s not to like 👍😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁.

    Liao is a type of Chinese kung fu sabre. I'm a martial artist of the kung fu variety and have seen these types of swords, even though they are not as uh, EXAGGERATED as this Gundam type.
