"Nothing special about the zaku" ...but the momo eye stuff within the helmet looks amazing. So much detail and the fact that it uses a clear piece like the for the eye is awesome
There's also the upcoming Silhouette Booster 2 (White) with parts for the SDCS Zeta Gundam that features two actual removable transparent red beam saber beams.
I was very, and rudely, shocked when they released the SDEX Nu Gundam, instead of a SDCS version. I heavily recommend the SDCS kits. I love them so much!
Damn you MG, you're actually selling me on SDs!! I reckon you could use leftover sprues to create a solid neck joint for the Teen Phase Silhouettes haha!
I bought both of these separately & I'm glad I did because I bought the colour accurate frames & got the red booster pack for char's Zaku II. Great kits & the green Zaku II was the first Gunpla kit I ever built. also if you cut the rod that connects the beam saber handles it has a ball joint that holds it into the backpack so you can remove 1 handle at a time. I cant wait for the new booster pack that has 2 good beam sabers with removable clear beams & parts to covert the Zaku II to a Zaku I.
15:16 Same. I always liked the IDEA of SD kits but i wanted their proportions to be closer to say, the sprites of a Super Robot War game, and these CS give me just that.....not to mention with the CS just coming out, and them being SD kits.....they are pretty cheap, easy to make and can make awesome little desk toys.
I actually started in the hobby with an SD gunpla. I didn't know anything about Gundam or building gunpla but I knew I liked the design so I grabbed it. Talked to my friend who watched the shows, so I started watching them and decided to pick up some HG kits. My rule is that I build SD kits to put on my work desk and HG for display in my bedroom.
I just got this two-pack. The RX-78-2 was a sinch to put together. Looking forward to the Saku build, and trying to decide how much detail to try for...
I have to mention real quick, the hg cold districts GM also had a color inaccurate bean saber. What was even stranger was that the holding hand was molded onto the saber, so not only do you have to paint the beam on that kit, but you also have to paint the hands, which is even more of a chore. This is just to help anyone who might consider getting that kit. Also, legit putting the sd head on a hg body looks way more natural. If anything, the hg head on an sd body should be the new sd line. Keep doing what ur doing, mecha!
I had a small heart attack when he took of the SDCS granddaddy head of, I tried to swap the eyes to the KAWAII version with mine the day after I built it and the neck piece SNAPPED IN HALF! This is the rx 782 by itself with the white cs and sd frame so luckily I had another neck piece, and then the chest broke in 3 when I was trying to get it off of the CS frame, so I had to make a quick rush to the hobby store and get some liquid cement to fix it, and phew I’m glad it’s done. I recently picked up the Unicorn Phenex and was worried I’d have trouble swapping the eyes but not anymore! Instead of on round 3mm pegs, they’re on a square peg that you can easily slide the eye piece on and off.
I Love these sd. silhouette model kits i have barbatos lupis on the way and ive built two mazinger kits and gaogaigar. these things are super poseable and easy to build. love the review.
@@Joshua_N-A ok i looked it up and the zaku is $6.20 so about 7 bucks with out tax. the rx78 has two versions. both are cross silhouette versions but one is also. $6.00 and theres another version thats $12.00. i think the higher version has added stuff to it but yeah you've got two choices for rx78 the $6 or $12 version.
Is it just me or does anyone else like the sd body with the hg head more than the sd head with hg body, they just look like really buff gundams ready for a fight at 5:40
This is the only kind of SD I'm into. It's a lot like the Super Robot Wars proportions, where they're compact and stylish yet able to articulate for more involved attacks than just moving the arm up and down.
I've been looking for a way on how to do those gargantuan heads and I can't believe I missed this thought (been collecting SD CS for awhile now and never would have thought of it - real shame me).
If you disappointed with that toothpick beam saber, There's a new expansion set in preorder (maybe still on preorder state) that included: Part for transforming Zeta Gundam into wave rider, 2 pcs beam saber handle with clear pink effect parts as you see from SDCS Sisquide (Titans and AEUG), another styled pair of hands (maybe for.Zaku?), and some parts for making Zaku II into Zaku I. And like GM parts from SDCS CS frame and Silhouette Booster, you must paint it if you wanna use that parts. Hope this info helps you, Mecha Gaikotsu.
I've been thinking about getting some CS kits but i'm trying to focus on HGs so these would just be counterproductive in terms of time and money. They still look good though and the reduced amount of stickers & missing colour details is pretty nice along with having generally great build quality. If i get one; i gotta pick carefully.
Oh god, that beam saber reminds me of the one of the old high grades where it was a hand, holding a beam saber, and all of it was white, the hand and saber were a single piece, I'll have to see if I still have it in my box of useless plastic
I definitely get what you mean about the SDCS Zaku-I have the standard green one with the extended parts and it's...okay. But next to him are the SD Zaku Warrior and the old BB Zaku II, and I dig the little guys a lot more.
I just got a CS SD char Zaku. It's the pink/red variant which is cool but I didn't realize that most of these don't actually include the CS frame.... Was disappointed while building it but it's still too cute to hate. Maybe I'll pick that frame up even though it's an additional $8...
and i agree the origin version of the zaku 2 is the best one out. i bought 2 of them and 1 char zaku 2 and they all share parts as well. iv even modded my zaku 2 with the super black chest peaces that come with the regular zaku 2 as well as the knees and black parts on the feet

Just like the HG Exia and Exia R2's beam sabers.
At least the Astraea does come with proper beam effects
HG Avalanche Exia beam saber and the Long & Short blades literal bleached weapons
In SDCS line, only the Sisquides (Titans and AEUG) have the beam saber.clear pink effect part.

HG with SD head is remind me of GTA Cheat that make the characters head bigger than their body
Big Head Mode is a classic cheat that goes back ages, at least PS1 era.
@Black Chandelier Mirage Never played it but that game did come to mind.
It put a big smile when you can store every weapon on a kit at once!
The leftovers look like JoJo characters they're buff as all hell 😂

Seeing those heads on the HG bodies, reminds me of the big head cheat from the first Spider-man game for the PS1.
I love the cross silhouette line.
Only minor point is they dont often include the cs frame.
But other than that a great video 👍

I want to see the jeweled mono eye more in kits.
Also, glowing heathawks are and improvement that needs to stay.

When you learn the cheat code for Big Head Mode
Classics is the best. When you always made a review, I would always want that.
The SD head on the hg body gives them so much personality
They need to start including some neck adapters for mg, rg, and hg
Gunpla: Hilarity ensues.

8:07 Do HG beam sabers work with SD Gunpla?
If you want your SDs to have beam katanas.

The CS frames make me miss SD Gundam Force's proportions so much. I see these as a sort of spiritual sequel and that makes me really happy.

Ya I totally agree. The HG Char’s Zaku II is the best HG model ever made. Very detailed for an HG. I have one myself😁
This is peak Gundam. Seriously, I might be worry about the price tag.
i think hobby link japan sells these for 10 -20 bucks plus like 7 bucks shipping so about 20-30 bucks in all. not as high as most hi grades.

they really need an Amuro Ray figma
I actually really really like them with the boosted proportions!
Can you review the HG Char's Zaku revive and compare it to the origin version?
Oh man I wanted these!
The beam saber is a chalk.
The SD Zaku II was my third gunpla, I have to say it's fun to build!! Also, atm I've only built SD Gundams but I'm saving up for my first HG.
Ever since I've been building Gunpla (20+ years) I've always wanted a Master Grade SD line.
You should check out RAY studio, he done an amazing job on some SDs
can you do a review for mg rx78 ver 3.0 and mg exia dark matter?
Wow this is crazy
Crazy good that is
Is it just me or does anyone else like the sd body with the hg head more than the sd head with hg body, they just look like really buff gundams ready for a fight at 5:40

I started with the normal SD so kinda nostalgic but honestly I prefer high grades as bigger grades take up space in my already small condominium

The high grades with SD heads
Had a nightmare last night. Got a Kit for Christmas. It was a PG Unicorn in SD scale.
wow cool
and i agree the origin version of the zaku 2 is the best one out.
