Just found your channel and been watching a few of your videos. Love how in-depth you are not just with the figure but with the lore and box of the kit as well. I really appreciate the level of content you put out for these reviews, even for smaller stuff like these SDW Heroes kits.
My friends joke I enjoy YT algorithm poison with making all these SD kits :') But I do love SD kits a lot myself and imagine a lot of people want to know more about them too, so I'll keep making them. Glad you found my channel:)
My Arsene Gundam also has issues on the right shoulder. The stickers were also too sticky so when I messed up the monocle, I couldn’t fix it without ruining the sticker.
Shame about those hollow parts on the reflectors but holy damn they still bothered to put in the cool looking texture on there, I'll definitely consider this kit as a first SD build
Yeah, if you put some silver in there, it should look really good when the light hits it, or even better if you use that chameleon type where the color changes from different angles
Been waiting for this review! Preordered mine and still waiting for it to come in. He really does look like kaito kid in some ways so im definitely painting mine to look like him Great review again clubhouse!
Is there some sort of colored epoxy or resin you can use to fill in the reflector area? I guess that was one of those places I think bandai missed an opportunity on.
I think the easiest(?) way is to use vacuum-form to get a clear plastic sheet into the chest's shape, which is already far into "draw the rest of the f$$king owl" territory
Hm, that's certainly not a kit a lot of people request. I'll probably review the Soketsuden kits eventually so I'll probably cover him when I get to the series (...might not be soon though...)
It's always quite hard to give SD kit reviews a good time for upload (since they don't get as many views). The Japanese really love Arsene Lupin and the whole gentleman thief thing
bit of a late comment, but i definitely think the loose arms ar a widespread issue. the shoulders on mine are barely staying within the sockets, and if i want to even attempt hiding the shoulder stems inside i have to pose him using the cape as a stand lol

Arsene Lupin you say
*Lupin III theme intensifies*
"Lupin the thiiiiiiiirrrrrdddd~"
My Arsene Gundam also has issues on the right shoulder. The stickers were also too sticky so when I messed up the monocle, I couldn’t fix it without ruining the sticker.
Same also I bought arsene Gundam X since Christmas of December 2021
The shoulder parts on mine gave me so many issues. This was my first gunpla
Great review as always!
Thank you so much!
out of all the ones so far this one just for som reason feels the most out there. but still good
He's quite unique among SD Gundam characters, though I kind of wonder what took them so long to do a phantom thief
Really well produced video! Got a new sub
Thank you and welcome to the channel!
The good thief of the of SDW hehe
Kind of a shame he vanished from the story later on

I agree the Hat does look a bit cheaper than it should. Idk I feel like it would look cooler with a different color. BUT that cape omg its awesome
Yeah, the cape isn't supposed to be clear red, but it looks so good, it's hard to say no to it. I'd love paint it up and leave sections of it clear
@@HobbyClubhouse does the cape catch UV light and glow like some effect parts?
I didn't test it specifically but yes it should because all the SD kits from China use clear parts that are UV-reactive

Thank you so much! Especially for SD kit reviews that not nearly as many people get excited over:)
The kit really put that 660 yen to good use
Nice review, I like it ;)
Thank you so much:)
@@HobbyClubhouse most welcome
Where's your review at Nobunaga Dark Mask ver.?
I need this in my life
i have the same problem with the right shoulder being lose .
That's a bummer, I wonder if Bandai got the ball measurement just a little bit off

@@HobbyClubhouse I meant into the x reflectors. That was something that would have deserved more love.
@@Adniwhack Definitely, though the only idea I have in giving the reflector panels more shine is to paint or spray paint it in chrome.
Hello, can you review SD Gundam Sangoku Soketsude : Dong Zhuo Providence Gundam?
Hm, that's certainly not a kit a lot of people request. I'll probably review the Soketsuden kits eventually so I'll probably cover him when I get to the series (...might not be soon though...)
@@HobbyClubhouse owh, okeyh...don't worry, hehehe..i just ask :)
Btw, thanks for the reply
Hey do you mind making a review for Verde Buster Team Member? Thx
I will be reviewing it indeed - not sure exactly when it'll be out, but soon-ish
@@HobbyClubhouse ok
Thx for the info too btw
I'm so sad that this is the only Gundam X kit released at retail since the Airmaster.
I must say I didn't see this review coming. And yes, that is Persona 5 reference since that game's MC's main persona is Arsene.
It's always quite hard to give SD kit reviews a good time for upload (since they don't get as many views). The Japanese really love Arsene Lupin and the whole gentleman thief thing
no i rest it based on arsene lupin
The name is 100% from Lupin. He's like one of the biggest icons of Phantom Thieves
British gundam x
Then we should also add some curly mustaches and a cup of tea
@@HobbyClubhouse He already have the tea Now he only needs a mustache.
