Review on HG Revive RX-78-2 Gundam

Greetings

The next review is up and apologies for the late uploading. Due to work, study commitment and some up and down in my life, it have hold me back a lot. However, it's a new year and time for some changes and i will take it step by step without hesitation. Let's carry on with the review.

About the Suit 

I believe everyone should know the suit as it's one of the iconic that started everything in the Gundam Universal.  Abit of this Gundam, It was piloted by Amuro Ray and the suit was built secretly in Side 7 during the One Year War against Zeon. It's a versatile suit and could tide over battles with simple equipment like Beam Sabers, Beam Rifle. In real life, the suit was design by Kunio Okawara and to know more about the suit, you may want to consider watching the Anime, Mobile Suit Gundam.

Review on Kit

The kit is easy to built and budget friendly. During the build, there are not much of trouble in building however, do aware of the fixing the round parts at the arm area. 

Below are some WIP (Work in progress) and Final Product Pictures:

 

 

 

One Leg Stand, OK! Haha

 

How you find it??? Super cool right? :D

Next up is the accessories that comes with it:

It's comes with another pair of hands which you can do some nice action poses. What you see in the pictures is what you get and with the price of 1000 yen, it's worth. Don't think anymore, just go to the nearby stores to get one for yourself :)

Review

I would give a score of 10/10

Pros

- Simple to build

- Great Articulation

- Budget Friendly

Feel free to give comments and always looking for room of improvement.

There are some plans for this blog and i will announce to everyone soon.

Thank you and wishing everyone a good day ahead! :)

Review on Star Build Strike Gundam

Greetings

The next review is up and it's gonna be a kit that everyone will know if you have watched Gundam Build Fighter, It's  Star Build Strike Gundam, well, kind of obvious since i already posted the box art. 

About the Suit

The suit was built by Sei lori and controlled by Reiji (most of the time). The unit is an upgrade version of the original Build Strike Gundam as it was destroyed during one of the battle with Tatssuya Yuuki by his suit, Zaku Amazing. The difference between this unit and the previous was it have change  the backpack that called Universal Booster that improve the the suit status. The Universal Boosters gives the suit new systemes which is  RG System, discharge system and absorb system and this have made the gundam become kind of OP (overpower).

For more of the suit info, you may want to watch the anime and embrace the ambiance of each of the battle scene .

Review on Kit

Right after the introduction, let's go to the kit itself.

Front

Rear=

looks kind of cool isn't it?  :P

Let's proceed to the stability and articulation of the kit:

When fixing the backpack, be careful with the cannon as it's easily drop off. Consider to glue it for permanent pose.

The movement of joint is stable and allows you to do good poses however, don't expect much for a HG kit.

Weapon and Back Pack

 

For the backpack, the design look like some insect though, haha.

Accessories & Extras

 

For the accessories, it include a base stand which's not bad for the price of the kit that you are paying. Stickers wise, have a lot of work to do though.

Last but not least, it include the effect parts for the overall suit.

Well,  for the other effect parts, you got to buy the Build Custom Series, Universal Booster Plavsky Power Gate which enable you to do up Plavbsky effect like how it become in the anime.

Pose

How you fare this kit? :)

Review

Score: 7/10

Compliment

• Easy to build
• Stability and Articulation of the kit is good
• Includes a stand

Critics 

• Mild challenge for pasting the stickers on the kit
• Got to buy the build custom set which logically should be a set
• Good to include another pair of hand for variation of pose(s) 

If you are a fan of GBF/ GBFT or Strike Design colloectors, etc, don't miss out this kit :)

That's about it for now.

Review on HG Wing Gundam Zero Hoono part 2

Greetings!!!

All right, next up would be a work that is related with the Wing Gundam Zero Hoono that i have been working on for a friend of mine.

Finally, it's complete :) And so, i present my review ^^

Front Back Pics

 

I have done up a mini modification which i added the other half of Wing Zero Gundam Wing.

Well, look simple? Haha

Colour Scheme, Modification & Add on

Since i am working on this kit for a good friend of mine, i have thought of some colour that would be appeasing to my friend. Therefore, i chose pink and match up with white, gold and red. I tried to play with more colors to see whether it matches.

End result, not too bad but well, got to work hard. On a side note, Look nice isn't it? Haha well depend on individual :P , just joking.

 

I have added a pair of hands and fire effect from the HG Build Burning Gundam. This is to create additional expressive pose 

Action Pose 

After lots of shot, this are the 4 poses that are cool and bad ass

Favorite pose 

Last but not least, hope that everyone like this work and especially my friend. Anyway, before i end and in case you are wondering what is the name of this kit, it's Burning Takewondo Wing Gundam 

Hehe, that's about it and back to my the other project.

Hello everyone, how are you? Hope that you are doing fine. Haha today will be doing a simple review on the 1st Revive kit, Guncannon from the 1st Gundam Series, Mobile Suit Gundam.

1st ThOugHts...

So what's your 1st thoughts on this suit? Grumpy? Old School? Meh? or WTF??? 

Hmm.... enough guesses, Let's turn on to my 1st thought of this suit, it look very old school kind of suit but also a powerful suit if anyone can make it look like a badass!!! Lol :D

But we are not going too far on that but some simple snap shots about this kit to enhance your buying decision.

Pictures

 

Feature of the kit

 

 

- Well, first of all, you got a simple slides for the kit, pair of hands which can add more pose for the kit. 

- The head is able to move move freely and not so limited compare to some of the HG Kit if you know what i mean. 

- The arms are able to bend 90 degrees and the legs,, haha refer to the shots. 

Action Pose

 

Well, how you find it??? Next up, REVIEW!!!

Review

1st of all, i would give a score 9/10. It's an excellent kit accompany by great articulation and easy build. Details wise, it's alright and bring out the simplicity of old school suit. Lots of details doesn't mean the kit will look great, hehe, anyway, i will give this kit some paint job and modification and be sure to look for it. 

Do give this kit a try and promise you that you won't regret. Personally, i believe that Revive Line won't disappoint us and so do when the next kit release, i will be doing up a review for it as well and because it father of all Gundam. Haha :)

Apart fro that, i will update on my next work soon, so later~

Do feel free to feedback to me if you have any comments. Seeking improvement at all times ^^
