    My only experience with the line was the Zaku II FZ, but I found it to be a pretty solid kit. I appreciate how it tried to fill in some of the gaps in the MG line, so you could have a nice consistent 1/100 scale display. The lack of reprints definitely hurts though, especially with how the prices have inflated for something designed to be a somewhat budget friendly product to begin with.

      the zaku fz build is great, there are many re100 i missed out on that if u want now the second hand the price would be highly inflated

    The RE/100 kits get reprinted from time to time. However, they tend to be P-Bandai exclusive (even though you can get them at Gundam Base too).
    And even then, it is still incredibly tough because they will be bought up in a flash.

  • @AhCup
    @AhCup Před 2 měsíci +1

    One thing that's not mentioned about why RE/100 is in the back burner is price. RE/100 was priced so low and expected to be price below MG. Some of the new HG priced even higher then RE/100. You can imagine the money the can make per kit is possible to be lower in comparison. The unreleased RE/100 then rebrand as FM in order to price a bit higher then some MG on the lower end. You can then see why they do not want to waste production time to reprint RE/100.

    I'm a huge fan of this line, I probably bought half of them. To me it seemed pretty obvious that RE/100 was supposed to pick up where the B Club line of resin kits left off. In fact several RE/100 subjects were previously only resin.
    There was a time, like say when G Gundam or 0083 were current, that the market could only sustain so many expensive to tool mainstream plastic models. The ones that didn't make the cut often made it straight to B Club as option sets or entire kits. Nowdays the mainstream Gunpla market is GIGANTIC and there's honestly no such thing as a subject too obscure so that's maybe why it died.

    Re/100 Gundam mk 3 has been my dream kit since I've started building kits back in 2020 and after 4 years of waiting they have never reprinted it and the market is so bad because it's a old print that the pbandai red one is the same price or cheeper than the retail which drives me crazy because I can get mg kits from the 90s but I can't get a 1/100 no grade kit from 2016

    My gunpla collection is almost exclusively 1/100 scale, MGs and RE/100s. My RE/100 collection consists of the Dijeh, Zaku II FZ, and both Jagd Dogas (Gyunei's and Quess'). Unfortunately I missed my chance at getting the Gunblastor...

  • @HaohmaruHL
    @HaohmaruHL Před 2 měsíci

    Considering they are sold for like x3 the original price now this line's status of obscurity and rarity only brings Bandai more money now. I won't be surprised if they abandon the FM line and make something new again, so that the resellers could slap those x3 price tags on FM kits too, because rare.
    You should have seen how the RE/100 Gerbera re-release rendered the original Japanese P-bandai store page unusable for the whole day because people kept hungrily refreshing the page to be able to snatch one. It went out of stock the second pre-orders opened.

    There is some good news, this year we've gotten some RE/100 reprints. Dijeh was reprinted a couple months ago, and at the start of this summer Guncannon Detector is being reprinted, alongside the GPO4. Not to mention the Nightingale can also be found everywhere rn. Also there may be a Bawoo on the way so that's nice.

    Bandai sure loves to introduce new lines then forget about them, huh?
    About a year ago I got a Bandai model (about MG size) from SPT Layzner. The box was labelled with R3 "Real Robot Revolution". Upon doing some research, there was only about half a dozen kits in the line. Only from Layzner, L-Gaim and Xabungle.
    Kind of a shame they never continued on with it. It would have been nice to get more large scale kits from lesser known 80s mecha series.

    The "planned release" of the RE/100 kits are all over the place 🗿
    -> Efreet Custom became RE/100
    -> Jegan and GM Sniper 2 became MG
    -> The rest are...... 🤷‍♂️
    -> The best bet for Gaia Gundam is for it to become FM 1/100. This also applies to Reborns Gundam and Leo.

  • @Jirujan
    @Jirujan Před 2 měsíci +1

    my problem with RE/100 is that Bandai also tried to give it minimum accessories like HG, especially the hands. most of the kits only come with 2 grabbing hands and (usually) 1 gun holding hand. no fist, no relax open hands, and no action open hands.
    another thing that make me dislike FM IBO is the side part of chest armor. rather than connected to the chest armor, it connected to the parts in between arm and torso. you can only raise the arm up to 90 degree. if you want to raise it higher, you have to rotate the middle part between torso and shoulder, but if you do that, it will also rotate the side part of chest armor. IMO, it look ugly

    The reason why the Reborn One-Hundred line died is becouse they always ended up being more expensive then regular master grades, even if they were small mobile suits from victory. And their quality was usually worse then highgrades. the better ones like the gpo4, mk 3, efreet and dijeh were basically just oversized hg´s. The only kit in the line that was better then a regular hg from that time was the zaku F2.

    • @NeDlols
      @NeDlols Před 2 měsíci +2

      I'm guessing it's because unfortunately the dimensions of pretty much every part of the Zaku Kai differ quite significantly from the standard Zaku so they'd either have to redesign the entirety of the 2.0 inner frame for one kit or add so many additional parts to modify the inner frame that it'd be stupidly expensive for a grunt suit.
