One of the things I really like about this one is that they reused the mechanical arm from the Machinedramon kit. That might sound like a downside but machinedramon's left arm is actually *from* a MetalGreymon, so it absolutely should be!
They were definetly reusing what they are able to with this one. They were actually thinking ahead too since the Alterous Arm is actually from the Virus Type's X-Antibody form; same for the Blitz Claw.
even though it is from metalgreymon x virus I think they took it more from the 2020 anime since majority of non digimon fans would not know of the virus X form also hoping for a virus metalgreymon kit since wargreymon black and metalgarurumon black are kits or they continue with wargreymon X
The metal claw on metalgreymon is actually smaller than whats in the mugendramon kit... but you also get the actual larger arm so you can oversize it on metalgreymon too
If you are going to do the Shinegreymon, I know you are going to hate the stickets on it but hlj sells a paint that matches almost perfectly. It's the VIC Colors - Metallic Cyan, I bought it with mine and added it to all the places which was easy because of the kit having recesed stickers and the type of paint
Those extra parts for the Alterous Arm aren't actually 'new' to this kit, conceptually that is. Those parts allow you to convert it from the Alterous Arm of MetalGreymon: Alterous Mode to the Alterous Arm of MetalGreymon (Virus) X-Antibody
I built this a week ago and it was so fun and the end result was amazing and really hefty befitting an actual cyborg dinosaur model kit. What an absolute banger way to end the year.
Waiting for this kit to arrive! I’m so glad Mecha did a review for this as I always wait for his reviews before buying a kit, cause he uploads them usually around the same time they are available in our country. Thanks! Great review and I’m still sold with the kit 👌
your videos are always what i look to before i get a kit. I love how concisely yet comprehensively you review these models. TLDR you make me waste money
@@Luciens10 Tbh the only horrendous stickers are the grey ones and they are all color correcting so you don't really need to use them. Red and blue ones are fine
I'm waiting for mine to arrive before watching this video. MetalGreymon is my second favorite Digimon and I loved Machinedramon's unique build compared to the more humanoid kits, so I'm confident that I'm gonna like this one too, especially if the build follows the trend of the other recent kits in this line by not using polycaps (Though Machinedramon's polycaps were the least problematic out of the earlier kits thanks to their ratchet-style design, so it's hardly a deal-breaker if they're still in this particular kit). I did see footage of someone building the tail and noticed that the end of the wire no longer requires you to thread the two halves into holes at the edge of the tail and instead simply has you curve the edges of the wire around inside of the end of the tail before putting the final piece on (which were a technique they did use for Machinedramon's neck, but not the tail for some reason), which fixes the irksome issue I had with Machinedramon's tail being too finicky to put together at the tip.
Some background to anyone interested. This kit is based on Metalgreymon from Digimon Adventure 2020. In the anime both him and Weregarurumon got mode changes (Metalgreymon Alterous mode and Weregarurumon Sagittarius mode) acting as an in-between Ultimate and Mega (Perfect and Ultimate using JP terms). The Alterous cannon itself being based on the same cannon Metalgreymon (Virus) X has. According to the digimon reference book/encyclopedia the Alterous cannon while being a railgun can also be used as a sword too. The extra part to attacked the arm to his left is to make it almost if not 1 to 1 with Metalgreymon (Virus) X's cannon 2 modes blast mode (gun) and blitz mode(claw).
For me this is the best model kit from Digimon line so far. With this type of body structure I hope they will release MetalTyrannomon or MegaloGrowlmon/WarGrowlmon in the future.
A lot of the Amplified Digimon seem like they're borrowing notes from their X-Antibody counterparts where applicable but this one ripped off a whole alternate arm from his.
I’ve never watched the show, played one game on the DS growing up, so I have no knowledge on Digimon. But damn this is gorgeous! Might need to grab me one
this one might be their best one since mugendramon. be fair for mugendramon he doesn't exactly have a lot of extar giblets to take into account. the metal grey mon had an entire arm based on alterous mode from the anime...... said arm is also based on a version of metalgretymon from a card/series line called 'x antibody.' ....... which ironically works weirdly well cause he gains the arm in such a way XD
7:10 actually this metalgreymon accessories parts are actually came from the digimon reboot series with the addition of super evo digimon goes into alt mode
Since they did this digimon and shine greymon as kits I'm hoping they do a weregarurumon and a mirage gaogamon kit as well but they could also do virus metal greymon and burst/ ruin mode shine greymon
Its very funny that they included the MetalGreymon (Virus) X Antibody arm when so many fans have pointed out how these amplified kit designs just look like slightly modified X Antibody designs. I could see a limited release Virus version coming out, but its probably easy enough to just paint him blue.
It's not funny. This appear in reboot 2020 anime. Also why not to reuse whatever established in franchise? Metalgreymon was introduced back in 1997 vpet toys and he is originally blue variant of Virus attribute. Only in 1999 Digimon Adventure they start introduced Vaccine variant. Which similar one is done on Alterous Mode Metalgreymon in 2020 anime as well reuse the X-Antibody Metalgreymon Virus. Nothing funny about that.
oh... my.... god.... havent bought model kits in a while but that might change now CAUSE WOW THIS LOOKS FANTASTIC 😭 and ngl the mouth is the mouth attractive part, who knew theyd pull of a mon like this
That alternate left arm configuration isn't actually as unique to this kit as you think. In fact, if you painted the orange flesh a faded blue and the stripes red, then you could give it that left arm and you'd have the virus version of MetalGreymon X.
Imagine in bandai did all the digimon needed to build chimeramaon and the only way to build it was to use the parts off all the kits, that way they'd sell all the kits twice so you can actually displays the whole collection
Is it interchangeable with Machinedramon? Especially the head? Because that means we can make a fanmade custom Digimon: MachineGreymon or FullMetalGreymon.
I think they should make kits of the Digimons from the Xross Wars series as the Digimon from that series looks mechanical in design and their Digi-Evolution involves them combining with each other like a super robot.
It's not combined style but transformable Imperialdramon Amplified is a wreck. Loose parts and less stable kit. They will repeat Imperialdramon failure if they do another same style to Digimon kits.
@@kingseiryu929 Omegamon is the best IMO. Alphamon has softer plastic and slightly smaller, but he's my favorite digimon. The Shingreymon kit is awesome too, but he's got too many spikes and can't pose much because of them. I still think the Machinedramon kit was the best out of the huge digimon kits.
As I have not yet gotten any of these Digimon kits. Your videos make me want to get them more and more. Question though I know there is a Wargreymon out already. Are there any of his other forms? Like Agumon or Koromon?? It be a awesome set up to have all his evolution forms.
There is Amplified and regular Wargreymon, and Omegamon and Omegamon X Amplified if you count those for Agumon line, but currently nothing below MetalGreymon.
It's good but it's something else from Adventure. On the other hand, the fact that they clarify it as (Vaccine) means there's going to be a Virus version, which I'm much more hyped for.
I would like one from one of the later series like maybe Shoutmon X4, but still,I'm just happy it has the Alterous Mode attachment. Means that if they ever do WereGarurumon, which honestly feels like an inevitability, it might have those cool metal wings from its Sagittarius Mode.
Considering that this is the Metal Greymon (Vaccine), I suspect we will get a recolor release for Metal Greymon (Virus); especially given how much effort Bandai seems to have put into this kit.

also hoping for a virus metalgreymon kit since wargreymon black and metalgarurumon black are kits
or they continue with wargreymon X
@Xroslight Yeah but at the same time those same non fans wouldn't know about the 2020 form ether?
@gdash1996 true to a lesser extent since clips of the show are spread out and easier to come by
The metal claw on metalgreymon is actually smaller than whats in the mugendramon kit... but you also get the actual larger arm so you can oversize it on metalgreymon too
I NEED a Kabuterimon kit with this level of quality
I want them All
Kabuterimon
Mega kabuterimon
Hercules kabuterimon
Metal kabuterimon
Sukamon pls
The bug?

The alterous arm reminds me of Tallgeese III😁
Hopefully Bandai will make a Chaosdramon / Chaosdramon X and Blitzgreymon kit.
What was the Omni/Omegamon called that had the blade and gun arm attributes swapped?
@@hydrasfangOmnimon Alter S.
@@SpultoBNMTheMutuallyUnrequited Thanks for letting me know what it was called.

You and me both man 🤣
Really recommend also the previous digimon amplified kit, Shinegreymon
That thing is absolutely awesome
The stickers are horrendous. I love shinegreymon so i'm sad that it's a deal breaker for me
@@Luciens10 Tbh the only horrendous stickers are the grey ones and they are all color correcting so you don't really need to use them.

The Beelzemon kit was really nice. Would deff recommend
it really does turn out great, it just needs more stuff going on, maybe an accessory set with the motorbike and the blast mode stuff
@@lucasgondra5725there is a third party kit that has them. Check it out online!
Really? I put that in the bottom tier of the amplified ones with omegamon and imperialdramon.

imagine if they release metal seadramon..it would be sick
OK, I'm definitely picking up this kit
Perfect, Holidays right around the corner
Excellent! Now they need to make a WereGarurumon with all the stuff for Sagittarius Mode!
How timely! I just built this kit for my little brother.
the stand runner that come with that is the exact same as the witch from mercury display stand
this one might be their best one since mugendramon.
be fair for mugendramon he doesn't exactly have a lot of extar giblets to take into account. the metal grey mon had an entire arm based on alterous mode from the anime......
said arm is also based on a version of metalgretymon from a card/series line called 'x antibody.' ....... which ironically works weirdly well cause he gains the arm in such a way XD
i would love a wargrowlmon kit with this level on detail and engineering
Now i want wargrowlmon or palidramon amplified
Paildramon would be so sick.
Paildramon, he's gonna be the digimon version of Freedom Gundam, 😁
9:05 - "bicep fleeeex
me: spagheeeeti
Metal Greymon's been hitting the gym.
Wow, that Metal Greymon model is impressive! 🐲🔥
7:10 actually this metalgreymon accessories parts are actually came from the digimon reboot series with the addition of super evo digimon goes into alt mode
It looks way more impressive than the War Greymon.
now we need an amplified agumon and greymon, and we'd have a full amplified agumon line.
This looks great but I would like to see a non-amplified still.
9:04
The flesh arm's doing the italian gesture when you're looking it on the side....ahahahaha xD
Since they did this digimon and shine greymon as kits I'm hoping they do a weregarurumon and a mirage gaogamon kit as well but they could also do virus metal greymon and burst/ ruin mode shine greymon

@@casvalcat3546 You really seem to know a lot about not being funny
megidramon and raidramon kits would be sick
Just picked mine up today
You also have to look out for the amplified shinegreymon xD
When are you going to review the shine greymon amplified?
oh... my.... god.... havent bought model kits in a while but that might change now CAUSE WOW THIS LOOKS FANTASTIC 😭 and ngl the mouth is the mouth attractive part, who knew theyd pull of a mon like this
They keep knocking these Amplified kits out of the park. There’s only two or three I didn’t enjoy building
Man I want this so bad the only other digimon kit I have is machinedramon. They have the same arm, I’d love to kitbash them
That alternate left arm configuration isn't actually as unique to this kit as you think. In fact, if you painted the orange flesh a faded blue and the stripes red, then you could give it that left arm and you'd have the virus version of MetalGreymon X.
Hoping we get a Renamon at some point ❤
im waiting for the virus version. Also if you have mugendramon (Machinedramon) he uses his metal arm mold.
Not same. The arm is new mold and smaller than previous one
I don't remember MetalGreymon looking THAT skinny or underweight.
GIGA BLASTER!
7:46 isn't that runner the from the Aerial?
it's the wfm stand set
I hope they make all the Dark Masters are these kits
Next try review shinegreymon
Imagine in bandai did all the digimon needed to build chimeramaon and the only way to build it was to use the parts off all the kits, that way they'd sell all the kits twice so you can actually displays the whole collection
Is it interchangeable with Machinedramon? Especially the head? Because that means we can make a fanmade custom Digimon: MachineGreymon or FullMetalGreymon.
The Digimon figure I always wanted!
I love the wings. Can those wings fit into HGWFM Gunpla?
So they made metalgreymon alteros mode avaliable for this kit?!
I loved his Jamaican accent in the English dub 😊
i really wanna buy this one
I really enjoyed the video
I would love to see comparison between Mugendraman and this metalgreymon side by side..
What action base did you use for Metal Greymon?
Figure Rise still is the current hard carry for Bandai
I hope they create the 8 of them not just focusing on Graymon and Garurumon family 😅
Bruh, there's no normal Greymon on the Figure-Rise Standard line yet. You're confusing it with Machinedramon and Wargreymon 🧐🧐🧐
I had to pause the video and go make sure I didn't miss a Greymon release haha.
@@TheMattTrakker Nope, he's just drunk 😂🤣😂🤣
Metal Greymon would love to see the MB Astraea Type F Avalung
Oh no, no waist swivel.
I bet swivel man will cry when he saw this.😅
Anyways, nice review.😄👍🏻
I think they should make kits of the Digimons from the Xross Wars series as the Digimon from that series looks mechanical in design and their Digi-Evolution involves them combining with each other like a super robot.

What the hell? No Machinedramon comparison?
Machinedra is way bigger, even the trident arm is on different size (more long and more chunk)
THANK YOU! gracias somebody said it!
Nice.
Does it comes with the stand?
Can you do a review on IN ERA + THUNDERBOLT??
I hope they do the virus version as well !
Now just gotta wait for rizegreymon
You should check ultraman blazar figurise , its a good modelkit too
Hope bandai continue doing holy knights digimon so far theres 3 not including magnamon cause i wait for his amplified version
Are these hard to put together?
Day 4 of asking Mecha Gaikotsu to review the Sentinel Riobot Gurren Lagann
Ordered this one but it's on a shipping delay
I actually recommend Ultraman Blazar figure rise kit
I need this.
Minor complaint, I think he looks a lil thin, but I guess that can't be helped without hiking the price.
Did you build the Amplified Alphamon and Omegamon X-Antibody yet? I think those are slightly better than Metal Greymon.
I should go buy those
@@kingseiryu929 Omegamon is the best IMO. Alphamon has softer plastic and slightly smaller, but he's my favorite digimon. The Shingreymon kit is awesome too, but he's got too many spikes and can't pose much because of them. I still think the Machinedramon kit was the best out of the huge digimon kits.
bruhhhhhhhhh noooooo these are sooooo sickkkkk im late and am going to buy some rn
do you repainted it?
As I have not yet gotten any of these Digimon kits. Your videos make me want to get them more and more.
Question though I know there is a Wargreymon out already. Are there any of his other forms? Like Agumon or Koromon?? It be a awesome set up to have all his evolution forms.
I think we're ALL waiting an Angewomon kit.
There is Amplified and regular Wargreymon, and Omegamon and Omegamon X Amplified if you count those for Agumon line, but currently nothing below MetalGreymon.
dude, I want this kit so bad but it has already gone on HLJ, WTF
and he's a ultimate level digimon
I can’t find the 2nd wire for the tail. Anyone know what I can use as a replacement?
I’ve tried two so far and they’re too thick
Wargreymon ✅
Metalgreymon ✅
NOW BANDAI NEED TO RELEASE *"Blitzgreymon"* from digimon reboot 💀
It's good but it's something else from Adventure. On the other hand, the fact that they clarify it as (Vaccine) means there's going to be a Virus version, which I'm much more hyped for.

That double-sided alternate arm is taken straight from the Virus X-Antibody form so it seems like a pretty safe bet.
i think this metal greymon has big head
Review Astray Turn Red please
Considering that this is the Metal Greymon (Vaccine), I suspect we will get a recolor release for Metal Greymon (Virus); especially given how much effort Bandai seems to have put into this kit.
@xxnike0629xx will you gonna hoard BOXES of Digimon stuff for your BOX fort?
@xxnike0629xx or for your eBay instead, then you will put ....
@xxnike0629xx put overpriced price tags onto them? LUL
The tiddy missiles let's goooo
I remember you have alphamon, why not review yet? 😢
what is that thing he's building on at 1:20?
Wanna know as well!
It's called plamokojo workstation
if this release on 2015 or lower, all the blue strips on the skin would be a stickers
I can't wait to paint it like the virus version
This looks way similar to MetalGreymon X
yoooo can u do shinegreymon someday pls
I feel bad for Mugendramon, he's not your favorite anymore.
