FAQ:
1- Where do you get your figures?
Everywhere. Literally everywhere. Walmart, Target, Toys R Us, Antique Malls, Thrift Stores, Flea Markets, eBay, Amazon, Facebook, Online Forums, Friends, etc. This video details the answer. • FAQ- Where Do I Find/B...
2- Can you review ___? Can you make a video?
I do appreciate requests, suggestions, and video ideas, however, I get so many that it's impossible for me to keep track of them. It's okay to ask, but I may not be able to get around to it.
3- Can I have ___?
I do not and will not sell or give parts of my collection to those who simply ask for something in the comments of one of my videos.
4- Can you check out my channel?
Sure. I tend to check out people's channels if they're active on the channel, or seem like they may be interesting. However, I'm very picky on what I subscribe to, and I just don't watch every kind of video just because someone asked me to. Same goes for shout-outs, I cannot fairly shout-out somebody for no reason other than they asked, it would be unfair to anyone else who were to ask and I would be unable to do so. A shoutout from me will not gain you much viewership or subscribers.

![1487 - HG Act Zaku [Kycilia's Forces] (OOB Review)](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/-Yqn4NSDKNQ/mqdefault.jpg)
I can respect a guy trying to tell his audience about gunpla
I love how the Zaku wasn't designed to be marketable like the Gundam, yet here we have endless variations of it.
It wasn't DESIGNED to be marketable but it sure as hell is! lol
All the zaku models have slowly become some of my favorite gunpla sets to build. Really like the contrast in design from earth federation mobile suits.
kakarot referance well placed
Fun tip: you can mode the Zaku Sniper's Mono-eye to make it turn left to right
Edit: two things: you forgot to mention the coolest aspect of the Zaku cannon, it's a HG that features a functional Cockpit hatch! How cool is that?? I would like to see how your top ten stands now that we're having the new Char's Zaku Revive?
thEsE aRen'T cLoNeS!!!!!
I’m more of a GM guy, but the Act Zaku is an amazing design.
Edit: love the reference to Kakarot197!
God the Zaku designs always scared me when I was little great vid!
Bruh Bandai needs to make a revive Zaku III. Then I could pose it next to my Hguc ZZ.
Didn't really liked the Zaku's design at first, but it's grown on me. Especially, since I bought the Hg Origin version, really love the weapons and articulation on that thing.
While not at all what I would normally collect, this video really makes me want to get a couple Gundam kits!
Same
Correct：ZAKU kits XDD
6:45 dont use poly cement, the sticker isnt styrine, so it will just melt the kit and have eather no effect or the wrong effect on the sticker.
Thank you for knowing more than I do. Don't listen to me, listen to SkeletonLordRyan. lol
I think it's called Mark Setter.
Best thing about the thunderbolt Zaku is the fact they released a version without the big gun
Your fritzhelm zaku story reminded me of when I first got into gundam i tried to by a z'gok by googling "underwater zaku" we all start somewhere
When I wanted to see the gelgoog I looked at the gundam wiki mobile suit gundam page and checked every zeon suits page to see if it looks like it.
The FZ with the alternate helmet was also in Unicorn for like 0.5 seconds before it got blown up at Torrington.
I actually got the P-Bandai kit for that. It’s the exact same kit as the original FZ, but it throws in a Neo Zeon sticker and the E runner of the High Mobility Zaku for the bazooka. The Zaku machine gun, heat hawk, and two spare hands are left over and usable (including a left trigger finger!).
Edit: Turns out the FZ’s hands are just a hair bigger than the leftover High Mobility Zaku hands, so the covers are not compatible. Not a huge deal if you’re gonna paint, though, since you can borrow hand covers from another kit that will fit.
The Origins Zaku's kits are some of my most favorite out of all HG Gunpla models. I've collected more of them than any other line except maybe Gundam Wing models.
3:14 i got that reference.
Pretty great list. Making me see I need to get more Zakus. I've built like 4 of the Origin Zaku II's witht he tristars and the standard green. That Kycilia Act Zaku is looking pretty good, might have to get that. And also struggling to justify getting the p-bandai Full Frontal Geara Doga lmao
Lol that Sayla moment was amazing
I built some of the first releases of models when I was a kid and for the time they were amazing. They came a long way from them so I can't complain because I grew up with models. If I were younger and built an old one after building more updated ones I might be able to complain a bit but, not much.
I wish Amuro x Sayla ship sails through the series, really. Too bad neither the anime nor the novel really did them the justice.
Love the gundam stuff man. I haven’t dabbled in 1/144 much, although I have an rg sazabi to build soon enough. Your zaku love has rubbed off on me though, and Im feeling like eventually tracking down a grunt color MG Zaku 2.0 as a companion piece to my Turn A.
I don't own that kit, but I heard it's awesome!
Will you make a top 10 favorite ms in the RGM line.
I might!
As a gundam fan I appreciate your Gundam videos!
This is my favorite gunpla video ever
3:16 Did you just make a Kakarot197 reference??
What do you think
Yes. ne can't stop talking about it
Yes! Zaku Cannon rules!
Now that I'm satisfied with my 1/144 OYW gundam kits I've been planning on getting OYW zeon kits and this video helped me a lot! Thanks! (Getting that shin matsunaga first lol)
In all of the Universal Century there are two best girls. Emma Sheen and Cima Garahau. And my favorite Zaku is the F-2.
I need that Act Zaku. I NEED IT
Awesome video I love how you actually talk to us as well. My favourite zaku is the gunner Zaku from.Cosmic Era. Your brilliant and all the best
Only Zaku I own is Real Grade Char`s Custom, which was such pain in the ass to build, that it almost made me quit gunpla, but boy, doest it look cool!
For me I found the build pretty fun and enjoyable but when I finished it it was a pain to pose and handle
I'm more of a Guntank and GM guy but thanks for introducing me to the Sniper and Kycilia's Forces Zakus.
@ Jcc2224 what's your opinion on the gundam universe line ?
I have the Gundam. It's nice but I'm not very impressed. I'll get Wing Zero Custom and Char's Zaku II tho.
I absolutely love the Zaku I Sniper. Such a cool concept
Also, really like the look of the Kycillia ACT Zaku. Very sad that’s a P-Bandai and super expensive
@@RedCometZakooKycilia’s Act Zaku isn’t P-Bandai. The P-Bandai version is the original design of the Act Zaku from MSV.
@@Brawler_1337 Oh. My bad. You’re right. It’s still super expensive for some reason though.
@@RedCometZakoo Where are you looking and where do you live? GundamWorldOnline has it for $19.
Zeta gundam was my favourite. Can't wait to get a hizack some day.
Zaku best mobile suit ever
I bought many gunpla kits ages ago and the zaku I kycilia forces was easily the best and most fun to pose
The FZ helmet is the BEST head for the Zaku... and I will die on that hill.. also, impressive collection, thanks a lot for sharing it.
Playing Encounters in Space in the PS2 and unlocking the "Zaku II (Fritz Helm)" skin was so cool, when I started collecting Gunpla I tried looking for the "Fritz Helm Zaku" without knowing it was an alternate head for the FZ.
Edit- Just rewatched the part and I explained it in the video. lol
Thanks for watching!
Well, I for one love and enjoy your Gunpla videos. Keep it up!
Dont know shit about the story or history, but these look pretty cool!!
It's kinda heartwarming to see a fellow man of culture. Never watched the original gundam series but it was love at first sight the day I saw a HG Zaku kit. Never built any gunpla and just started colecting these bad bois last January 🤣
I really don't know why I prefer Zakus and GMs over protagonist gundam ms 🤣 I guess I relate to them better as an average joe in real life.
Grunt suits really embody what Mobile Suit Gundam originally brought to the table for the mecha genre. Prior to Gundam, most mecha shows were super robot shows like Getter. Mecha were tools powered by love and friendship to save the day. MSG shone a new light on mecha, depicting them as faceless, mass-produced weapons of war. The utilitarian nature of grunt suits captures this ethos better than the titular Gundam and its offspring.
Gosh I've never got a gundom before. I'm planing on getting some.
Gundum is much better
I recommend you start with SD kits then Move on to modern 1/144 HG. You tell by the Gundam art style to look realistic and dirty on the cover. If the Gundam on the front cover looks animated or CG those are old kits and I don't recommend those if you're starting. Best bring a phone with you for research on it's reviews and release date.
If you are starting out, I recommend picking up a Tamiya basic tools set. Also, just watch some tutorials, they are pretty helpful. Lastly, just pick whatever kit you want ( but you should start with an HG kit). You can look for a hobby store in your area, most if not all hobby stores carry Gundam. If not, then look on Amazon.
@@goldexperiencerequiem1085 thanks for the help, but with covid. I ain't leaving my house
@@foxgamer1737 Dang, you replied fast. Well, just watch some gunpla videos and see what you like then. But be warned, this is a very addictive hobby!
W takes, I NEED THAT ACT ZAKUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
I’m glad you made this
Have you heard the news about HG Gunpla Evolution/Revive Char's Zaku?
I have! It was revealed after I made this video. I'll certainly get it!
Will you make a videos of the GM's? They're to me the clone/Storm troopers of the Gundam universe
Can you review the ibo bael
Some panel lines would being these to life, I always glue hands, even if it means modifying guns, lost to many hand backs as a beginner. building gouf custom tomorrow
I don't like how panel lines look. Just makes them look dirty or cartoonish and if I'd panel line I'd go all-out and fully paint and weather them, and I like them looking clean. lol
the F2000 looks like a walking purple brick loaded to the gills with various weapons and it works
I have a RG Zaku 2, you know, one of the first ones. My question: should I build him or not? Sell or keep? (Got him as a gift). Cool video! Love Zaku's me too!
The RG Zaku II is great! Not on this list cuz he's kinda fragile, but he's a good one!
@@Jcc2224 the rg zku 2 if u play with it it gets hecka flimsy
Bought n built a waff origin for my first zeon kit. Blown away with the details and how it felt. thnking about buying all the origin line. Already have dom test type in my backlog+the new char zaku ii kit with the rubber skirt
Origin kits really are fantastic. You can tell Bandai went all-out with the engineering and detailing to make these kits some of the best in all of the Universal Century.
I will buy the Robot Spirits
Sucks that these videos don’t get more views... I enjoy them more then your transformers reviews
Bro the Char's sisters name, part of this video had me dying
That char zaku from the opening of the vidio looks like the ms-06jc zaku
i wish a thunderbolt zaku with a regular backpack. i love its design.
Very nice video and great list. Also high mobility type mobile suits do not need great articulation considering they are always in the air. You should consider panel lining you're kits they would look 100 times better.
I'm also a big fan of the Act Zaku! I havent got the Kycillyas forces one yet.
You should pick up the HGUC Zaku II Half Cannon for your Zaku collection, I really enjoyed your Top 10 Zaku 1/144 list
The f2000 is freaking amazing i like the custome on the body sick
The fact that we have never gotten a zaku 1q is criminal
The 144 scales are my favourites too, my favourite Zaku kit is the Zaku II F2. I’ve been looking for a Gearu Zulu, they’re just so expensive. Sadly I don’t have a shop nearby that sells Gunplas.
15:31 HOW MANY KITS INCLUDE A LITTLE PILOT?!?!?!
Mostly Real Grade stuff
most master grades, real grades, and the HGUC HARDGRAPH series
SkeletonLordRyan lord knows I need a new collection, but I feel it again... the pull to buy tiny objects.
I want to be free of this pain!
@@blaineishere3851 honestly, if you want tiny dudes, the hardgraph kits that come with a mobile suit are the way to go
SkeletonLordRyan hardgraph kits? I’ll look into that! Thank you very much!
My origin zaku 1 has a shoulder sheild and a zaku 2 spike shoulder for a custom ace unit
I so love to zaku sniper
I have two Zeon based 1/144 kits and both are great, with the exception of the Gouf I own my favorite is definitely the new Char custom Zaku II and I refuse to change my mind about it
This vid predates me getting that new HGUC Zaku mold. It's gooood. Got two of the green one on preorder!
Little bit new ish to the gundam series, I watched it as a kid and well now I’m addicted to gunpla, as of now I’ve built 3 beginner kits and am working on a master grade, anyway good video so I can atleast have snu ikr some more “villain” gunpla
Oh fellow monoeye
Yess i would love more gundam videos
Yeah I got the wrong Zaku i sniper variant, I bought this on the spot and never notice the box art I looked into more gunpla kits to buy online.
Cool video man I just got my first ever Zaku
I love the RMS106 Hi-Zack. I thought it would be on your list..
It's not a Zaku unfortunately.
Man some of those kits are so expensive now cause they havent been reprinted. The f2000 isnlike 100 and kycilla is like 50+. But man do they look awesome
I addicted to Zeon designs in my gunpla collection I have 10 zeon and
Love the passion
the black ops zaku is my personal favourite from this list althought the only zaku i have is the zaku ii fz 1/144 bandai this is still epik though
Thoughts on iron blooded orphans if u watched it ?
One of the best Gundam shows ever. I loved it.
I like how conky the old zakus are
Man, that F2000's never getting re-released, is it?
I'm sure it will some day. Very little Bandai kits are off the table for re-release. Just gotta be patient!
Me personally I've been waiting ages for the Rick Dom IIs (both colors), Thunderbolt GM, and IO Frame Shiden to get another run. The normal color Dom Tropen finally got another run.
There is a full armored gundam hg 1/144
Not of the classic green MSV design, no.
@@Jcc2224 it's on amazon for 60 usd
18:52 sadly you got it wrong in fact its actually full frontall zaku
Zaku III and Garma's Zaku need a revive, badly. Only other time I saw one of those was a MG of Garma Zabi's mobile suit
Absolutely. I built Mashymre's Zaku III recently, and I realized it's the only one of the original 5 HGUCs to not get a Revive. I wouldn't mind a revive Zaku I either, although the Origin one is a super solid alternative.
@@Jcc2224 also noticed the Doms and Gelgoogs could use one, as well as some of the GM variants. Lot of grunt suits just not getting the love it seems
hermosa colección!! felicitaciones desde Argentina
instead of a top 10 maybe a top 5 fav gms and can I send like a p bandai gm sniper custom or a gm canon?
What do you use to file down the nub marks on the pieces after you cut them off the tree?
A combo of a Xacto knife and my thumbnail. Just scraping at it with my thumbnail helps remove some of the white.
You missed the best one. Chogokin Zaku GD-28
LOL great video
ARTASIA clap IS clap BEST clap GIRL!!!!
Wow so cool
i like the white one 🤍
Its cause its the zaku cannon "test" type...which is why the legs arent the same. The zaku cannon is an awesome p bandai though...i like mine
Yeah but still, the "Test type" was just an excuse not to give it the proper legs. Which, of course, they did later anyway? lol
@@Jcc2224 perhaps, but I doubt it, the YMS-06k zaku cannon test type is a real design within the universe. So from an in universe development stand point changing the upper body only made sense using regular j type legs for cost effective change, akin to the half cannon. The true zaku cannon would have improvements and changes from what the test results from test type would show. Which can be used to explain why the legs were changed in the production model.
@@Jcc2224 the test type should have been a regular release
Top 10 DOM's
10. The purple one
09. The purple one
08. The purple one
07. The purple one
06. The purple one
05. The cool sand colored one
04. The purple one
03. The purple one
02. The purple one
01. The mini purple one
Bruh what about the green one?! Or the blue one?! Or the RED ONE?!
@@Jcc2224 you're telling me..... There's more Rick DOMs?
@@Jcc2224 Don't forget about the brown one! (Dom Tropical Test Type and Dom Tropen sand brown version.)
Update : I just saw there a sand colored one on 5th place. Sorry if I didn't see that ¦`{
Not my GOAT the Garma Zabi Zaku getting trashed.. T-T
Btw zaku mariner and zaku marine type are not the same ms
I had the sniper but I lost its eye
well u can just get 2 Zaku 1s and some blue spray paint
Sayla Mass!!!!!!!!!!!!!
F-2000...the Zaku cosplaying as the Heavyarms...
There needs to be a Borjarnon/Borjarnon Custom High Grade. It's a step between the Zaku 1 and 2 in appearance and it's a Turn A one
The Bornjarnon is more of a replica of the Zaku II (and the Zaku I) using later technology, possibly made from Hobby Hizacks by One Year War enthusiasts. I simply attribute the aesthetic differences to art style. As for the power cables in the neck of the Borjarnon Custom, that could be explained by a number of things. It could be a replica of a custom Zaku 1 that existed during the One Year War that we simply don’t know about yet, it could’ve been an attempt at replicating the Zaku 1 based on incorrect data, or it could have been a deliberate modification made by the original owner of this particular Borjarnon that was not accurate to any One Year War Zaku.
The old hguc zakus are anime accurate
Eh, not really. Tubes too thin and no droop snoot. The newer Robot Damashiis are the most anime accurate.
