Jabman, any interest in reviewing 3rd party 1/100 kits? They're getting good these days, I just built the In Era Thunderbolt and was shocked by the build. We could use another English speaking reviewer in the space.
youtubers need to stand up to bandai and refuse to review these HG kits. the more of this overpriced bullshit sells the more of them are going to make, leaving us nothing but p-bandi recolors and less and less MG and PG kits as years wear on. id rather see you review third party or even resin kits than more bitch kits.
This kit has an MSRP of 1700 yen, or currently $12 USD. That's a perfectly reasonable price for a brand new HG. If it's just about the price, your beef is probably with your local distributors rather than Bandai (or maybe Bluefin, which is the US distributor that Bandai owns. Fuck Bluefin.). Bandai has been making more non-gunpla kits than ever before, but they only have so much production capacity. HGs are just easier to plan and produce, so it's natural that HG production wasn't hit as hard as MG/PG - it's not like there are more HG releases than before; they just weren't reduced like MGs and PGs. Bandai even built a second factory in 2019, which became operational in 2020, but that apparently wasn't enough. They started building another one in 2022, slated to be operational next year. From 1969 to 2019, Bandai only had 1 plamo factory, but they literally built 2 more within the last 3 years. That's insane if you think about it. It speaks volumes about the surge in demand.

Are you on drugs or something? These kits are expensive?? Really? Also what's wrong with P bandai? Not all P bandai are recolor ya know, and I can easily buy them on P bandai website. So what's the problem?
@@HammerheadStarcraft youre unaware of how cheap plastic is huh? gunpla is almost as expensive as lego at this point and that has a 10x price gouge. its around $3000 for 1 ton of the plastic they make the legos from while buying 1 ton of legos would cost $37000.
Imagine getting the MG/FM version in the future for all of the wfm kit damnnnn
I Wish!!! 😂😂😭😭
She looks awesome next to her sister. Also the goat was certainly the goat
Appreciate the review, and your entire past body of work. Thank you.
I appreciate that!
The turn A carried a cow in it
And it was grossly overpowered too
i do love the shade of blue its in.
If you build the hip joints in reverse, it extends the legs a little bit. It makes it look a little bit better, imo
This reminded me; when they beta tested the dumb gundam metaverse app they ended up leaking a bunch of cad files; FM Aerial Rebuild included
Will you be picking up FM Aerial in the future?
Now to wait for a Full Mechanics and or Master Grade version.
Come on Bandai~
I find it criminal that an open palm hand isn't included.
I think I like the regular Aerial more, but, this one has grown on me considerably. It sorta feels like if the Aerial and the GP01 Fb were combined.

I prefer the cow carrier!
Also my favorite. ^_^
Gordon Ramsay would've love to use this Gundam for cooking salmon...
The melancholy is palatable. U ok, fam?
Probably not my best decision to narrate a video on friday evening after a long week at work.
