wholly crap I didn't expect how the mg zeta Gundam 2.0 was that good. please do a custom exia mg with the mg 00 quanta backpack on your next review please Mecha Gaikotsu
As a fan of the Zeta Gundam MS who has almost built them all, I have to say the PG Zeta is the best one overall because is more solid, stable on the ground, and has a better transformation process than the MG Zeta. IN case someone wants to build the PG Zeta... it will be the longest build you will ever do as a gunpla builder, but it will be rewarding in the end.
@@kimchicat2227 yes, I built the PG Banshee since it is the same thing as the Unicorn, and it was not even close. It took me almost two weeks days to finish the Zeta in comparison with five days to build the banshee with the LED light system. I don't paint my kits also, so it was pretty much a straight build.
Well i do think PG Zeta is the holy grail of PG not only Zeta though. it and older PG RX-78 mechanical design feel like a perfect replicant of what a real robot can be, more than any mordern PG.
Actually MG should take note form RG Zeta. The only thing RG Zeta lack is a locking method for stability especially in the hip joint and the chest. Hip joint of RG Zeta is more "realistic" engineer than MG or even PG. And RG Zeta has a rotating cockpit which only PG and RG has. Early RG tend to loose over time because they try to pack a lot of PG feature into a freaking small kit. Newer RG try to tone down all of it and make it like a small scale MG. TBH PG Unicorn and Exia don't even have the same level of mechanical design like these early RG.
actually, RG is basically the same kit as the MG 2:0 all the internal parts are virtually the same, if not better, thats including the transformation the issue with the RG is the size, parts are smaller and therefore thinner, resulting in lack in strength in a lot of places
@@blvk3 actually RG has many differences compare to MG 2.0, Shoulder-Chest transformation joint is different, Hip, front skirts joint is different, knee joint don't have locking method like MG and RG cockpit can rotate for both mode. And to be fair if bandai add some robust locking method in hip joint, RG zeta will have much stable hip transformation than MG or even PG but they can't due to the size.
Zeta 2.0 might not need an update. It has the classic look that surprisingly holds very well until today. But seeing the latest bandai gunpla engineering, I honestly want them to go ham (but not overboard) with zeta to aesthetically taken as sleek and as modern as possible in the MG kit form, joining the ranks of the ver kas like its brother ZZ and the revamped wing zero. Imagine how killer it would be. Ah. They really should do that as I am still waiting for the revised C1 and A1 MG as well.
@@muugu_14 the only update i would give to the zeta would be the addition of the universal jounts on the legs and the wing/seed style hands(swapable fingers)
@@amuroray88 Some people value anime accuracy. Others technical innovation such as parts separation, gimmicks, mechanical detail, engineering and so on. Both are great depending on what you like.👍
This kit was a godsend for those who suffered building the 1.0 MG (which Katoki Hajime designed in 1996) back in the day. I still remember rushing out to buy the kit back in 2006 when it became publicly available in my country.
Mg 1.0 is okay. Solid enough except for the floppy backpack, looks cool. Old but decent. Ironically, it can be considered as ver.Ka. And it is more “Ka” than zeta ver.ka, jugding by the interview in the ver ka’s manual.
Older Master Grades are sometimes comes with nice Action base Like the original MG F91 for example, it comes with Lafresia as it's base, but now Bandai is most likely sold the action base separately
@@shahfiee754 MG Aile Strike (both the original and RM) came with the Archangel launch platform, while not as nice the MG Freedom 1.0, Strike Freedom, Destiny and Nu Ver Ka. came with personalized bases (the base is in the pattern of Amuro's symbol for the Nu, and the Wing shape of each suit fr the Seed kits).
This was my second ever MG I got from my late grandma as a kid and I'm still surprised most consider this a complex build lol still one of my favorites and love the engineering of this. Hoping we'd get a PG Unleashed of the Zeta one day.
i kinda just want a declaration of a PG UNLEASHED line. it tooke lik 10 months for my "pre-order" to get fulfilled for the rx 78.... and im FULLY willing to pre-order the next UNEASHED model - whatever it will be
@@ginopascual7946 then you use a different display angle Sure it doesnt look good from all angles like Zeta, but it has the best ms form articulation of any transforming kit and flight form looks good from enough angles to look good on display, plus transformation is much simpler.
@@ginopascual7946 thats fair on your end I tend to not fuck with my flight forms once theyre on display other than to keep them clean etc, same thing i do with my hand grenade kits so as long as they have at least one photogenic angle its chill with me
I made a mistake and made this my first ever MG to build when I was still starting out. I'm happy to say that its still alive today but I wanna get another one and build it properly this time. Even so, this is the kit that made me fall in love with gunpla.
This was the 4th mastergrade i built, and it was a really good process! i remember one step in the build process being very awkward but rest was very satisfying. Can for sure tell Bandai’s engineering has improved since this model since i built a more modern mg right before and it was slightly jarring at first. 8/10 for sure!
I'm just gonna say that on mine whilst transforming some parts broke, and now i dare not touch it, but overall, i prefer the pg zeta, tho more tedious to build due to the leds, in the end I found the result more rewarding and personally I find the transformation to be better and more fun.
If this kit were to get a 3.0, I think it would probably be like the Granddaddy 3.0 where it looks like the RG just on a larger scale, so it could be good but it’s not necessary at the moment
@@fantastiCkiLler92 I know Metal Robot Damashii exist but what if they actually make as ver Ka MG. Note, the MG Wing Zero EW Ver Ka out even after they made the Hi-Resolution & Metal Composite ver. We barely have MG Zeta kits too. Unlike countless MG Exia, Unicorn,Astray and RX-78-2. It would be better to have modern updated MG Zeta and display next to MG Hyaku Shiki 2.0 and MG ZZ ver Ka.
Finished building it a week ago turned out awesome only minor issue was getting the head to snap together because it now has a bit of a gap at the front where the V horn is and the vulcans dont stick out all the way tried many times and alot of pressure but it doesnt seem to fit but it still looks fine with a bit of the gap other than that its a good kit
Perhaps among the reason we doesn't have 2.0 or ver.KA yet is that Bandai's engineering division is still having difficulty on topping out this kit without turning it into a hand grenade.
I've been putting one of these together, thanks to your video I realized the arms for me were super loosely attached and pushed them a lot harder to get them where they belonged, thanks for that, I know that wasn't intended but so many times when I'm like I don't know if I've done this right I look up one of your reviews to see if mine looks the same or not lol.
I have a few addendums to this as I have owned this kit since 2005. First, it will take a few years but the knees have a bad habit of loosening up after a while. It may have something to do with plastic wear but it will happen, a flaw that the MkII 2.0 does not share thankfully. Second, the catapult foot mounts between the MkII's and the Zeta's are different but interchangable on either base so you can pose the MkII launching while the Zeta is being prepped by the space crew. This kit is great on its own but best when paired with the MkII set.
I finally got the opportunity to purchase this kit at a good price a whole year after this review was put up that put this kit fully on my radar, and I have to say, it's a very, very good kit. I think think this kit could've been better if it was made now, of course, but considering its release year of 2005 this kit is insane. Really my only gripe is I'm just not a fan of all the triangle notches and more minimalist look- I know 2.0 master grades are meant to be more anime accurate than detailed, but I still wished it had more- and I really hope that one day, Bandai decide to revive the 3.0 line and give us a 3.0 Zeta with the RG look. If the kit wasn't so inconsistent with its inner frame, I'd say the RG Zeta is my favorite kit, because the design of that kit is just amazing, and I'd wish Bandai would revive the 3.0 line purely to just give us a 1/100 Zeta Gundam with the RG's detail and design. Either that or a Ver. Ka, which would be just as awesome.
@@eitanr I am very excited. Of course, I personally would've liked more detail, but I'm a huge fan of the updated proportions of the Ver. Ka and enticed by the new inner frame and its transformation. Some of the seams that are made by the color separation are eh, and the removal of the hyper mega launcher and a dedicated base is upsetting, but overall I am very excited. Going to pre-order the hell out of it when I can.
The Zeta Gundam is in my top 5 for mobile suits I hope are the new Ver. Ka. There's the Pale Rider, a 2.0 of the Rx-78, Ground gundam, Zeta Gundam, and Tequila gundam, in no particular order
@@eitanr I think it looks great! I love how vivid the colors are, but at the same time it doesn't seem like that much of a big change compared to the 2.0 in the visual department. I'll still probably pick it up though
I love the MS mode of the zeta gundam, and i yes that transformation is a headache. So i fixed mine in MS mode, and fixed/glued all weak points that disabled the transformation.
I have the Shin Matsunaga and Amuro Ray variants; and I can tell you if you get a chance, the Matsunaga one is AMAZING (the "Grey" Zeta - even tho it's orange-yellow, lol), because it's MUCH different. Amuro Ray's is a cool pink/gray and white color swap version. Both are just as rock solid and excellent as the OG Zeta 2.0. Love them; they're center pieces (especially Matsunaga's) for sure.
I gotta be one of the few who prefers dry transfer decals. I can never get water slides to work; more like "water scrapes" or "water slip and gone forevers". The dry transfers, I just use my thumbnail. I wish they still made them.
I have this kit and built years ago, and for some reason, the right ankle part won't move. I have no idea how it happened, I did check and review it back to back. I'm a straight builder and I'm pretty sure I never did skipped a part nor broke any.
Wait that thing is from back in 2005?? I think I got the 1.0 back around 2008 because for some reason they were the only ones available at the store and that kit REEEAAAALLY makes it clear the reason why there was a 2.0
Funny that just yesterday i was browsing for Zeta 2.0 reviews, and I see that there is no review from you. So I went and watched jabman's review. And now here you are, in less than 24 hours, reviewing the kit i was wandering about just yesterday
sadly I got a lot of folding on the new MG Zeta Ver Ka as well, the red and black had some unforgivable folding that actually stopped a couple of bits from being shiny all the way over the surface.
Way back in 2001, I bought a Z Gundam HGUC Wave Shooter kit, which was pretty cool with its multi-colored molding and fairly simple transformation mechanism. I loved it until one day one of the leg struts snapped and I had to throw it away. Seriously considering buying this kit now to replace it.
I own the MG Zeta Plus A1 I git it preowned and it is very damaged but I love that kit I’ve been meaning to get this kit and a new A1 to build and keep the old one as the plane as that is the only mode it stays together in because it’s the waste that’s damage lol. I feel this kit should get a 2.5 using better plastic and better colour separation for the yellow and greys under the skirts but keep the rest of the kit the same. Have you built a MG Zaku II 2.0 I own Char’s Zaku II it’s amazing! Also another kit that’s cool is the old HG Gaplant it’s plastic feels horrible the colours are bad and the beam is moulded in the same green as the mobile suit, but the kit is well designed and for a HG 2003 and dose the transformation with out partsforming something modern HGs and even MGs fail to do!
I have the first MG Zeta Gundam and the tail fin lights up. I also have the PG Zeta Gundam and it has a lot more lights. They’re both great kits but you have to be very careful when transforming them.
Hey Mecha, To be Honest I Really Like when you do a Cameo/mini Drama with your Gunpla I really like it and laugh at it because it's funny 😂😂, I hope you can do more Gunpla Drama's keep up 🔥🔥
My first Model kit and the only MG I have. Very good and solid kit. Somehow after long time, many parts that responsible for transforming became stiff.
Ok this has me interested... and speaking of painting something like this (or any other transformable gundam, like kyrios/arios/archer etc) what paint process to use in order to get scratch resistant paint in the more stressed points of transformation? (rotation and sliding parts) I experimented with acrylic paint on some of my models, great for static models but it's very fragile or gets too thick
Head to keeps.com/mechagaikotsu to get 50% off your first order of hair loss treatment.
Do you use plastic cement to keep it on the scalp?

The shoulders ball joints on mine have literally zero friction and fall off from gravity alone. Other than that tho, I love it.
ver ka version is coming very soon :)
When is that Barbatos lupus custom gonna seee the the light of day?
Never thought I’d see mecha rank a 16yo kit as platinum tier
Maybe if he reviews it before Platinum tier came out, MG Zeta 2.0 will absolutely getting Gundarium tier.
Omg I had a chance to pick this up at Galaxycon but passed on it
Did you maybe miss a Polly cap on the wrist for the attachment of the rifle and if you love this one you will love the perfect grade
I have this kit and built years ago, and for some reason, the right ankle part won't move. I have no idea how it happened, I did check and review it back to back. I'm a straight builder and I'm pretty sure I never did skipped a part nor broke any.
Maybe a PG unleashed Zeta Would be a game Changer?!

So basically the Zeta Plus and all it’s variants
Wait that thing is from back in 2005?? I think I got the 1.0 back around 2008 because for some reason they were the only ones available at the store and that kit REEEAAAALLY makes it clear the reason why there was a 2.0
My no 1 suit. Zeta has a timeless and slick design.
Funny that just yesterday i was browsing for Zeta 2.0 reviews, and I see that there is no review from you. So I went and watched jabman's review. And now here you are, in less than 24 hours, reviewing the kit i was wandering about just yesterday
I have found that the rifle tends to be fitted more for the backpack slot in wave rider mode, than for mounting on the arm.
you can fit a perfect grade gundam beam saber effect part in the hole of the hyper mega launcher.
"Not just a shield on the back of the head" He says, while mounting the shield on the back of the head
Isn't it in front of it's face?
yeah, but not *just* that. the entire torso reconfigures before the shield gets added on.
sadly I got a lot of folding on the new MG Zeta Ver Ka as well, the red and black had some unforgivable folding that actually stopped a couple of bits from being shiny all the way over the surface.
I really wasnt expecting a hair loss ad from a gunpla review video, but I'd be lying if I said that the barbatos didn't make me laugh out loud🤣
I just purchased the zeta today. It will be my first kit :)
I'm interested on it but yesterday was announced the Gundam Z ver.k and I have doubts.🤔
Way back in 2001, I bought a Z Gundam HGUC Wave Shooter kit, which was pretty cool with its multi-colored molding and fairly simple transformation mechanism. I loved it until one day one of the leg struts snapped and I had to throw it away. Seriously considering buying this kit now to replace it.
Sounds like that wouldn't have been too hard to fix... Yet you threw it away? *Bruh*
Making me excited about the ver ka. That super mega blaster is not with it :( a little sad that they did not even just grab the files from this one..
I own the MG Zeta Plus A1 I git it preowned and it is very damaged but I love that kit I’ve been meaning to get this kit and a new A1 to build and keep the old one as the plane as that is the only mode it stays together in because it’s the waste that’s damage lol. I feel this kit should get a 2.5 using better plastic and better colour separation for the yellow and greys under the skirts but keep the rest of the kit the same. Have you built a MG Zaku II 2.0 I own Char’s Zaku II it’s amazing! Also another kit that’s cool is the old HG Gaplant it’s plastic feels horrible the colours are bad and the beam is moulded in the same green as the mobile suit, but the kit is well designed and for a HG 2003 and dose the transformation with out partsforming something modern HGs and even MGs fail to do!
The OG waverider mode still can't be beat
I have the first MG Zeta Gundam and the tail fin lights up. I also have the PG Zeta Gundam and it has a lot more lights. They’re both great kits but you have to be very careful when transforming them.
Here for whether i go for this or Zeta Ver ka
Damn, you made me spit my tea. For a second, I thought you tore off your Lupus' face for an ad >:(
Can't wait for either/both P-Bandai Zetas with their 120+ sticker sheet each to make Mecha cry his way out of building them
I really want a 3.0 of Zeta Gundam with corrected Hip transformation and more robust and stable frame...
ok now i want 3, one stays in ms mode one stays in waverider mode and one painted in us navy's jet color scheme🤤
I kinda want to paint a Zeta Gundam kit with a starscream color scheme
Hey Mecha, To be Honest I Really Like when you do a Cameo/mini Drama with your Gunpla I really like it and laugh at it because it's funny 😂😂, I hope you can do more Gunpla Drama's keep up 🔥🔥
This was the first MG I built, I regret it because I did not know what I was doing. My only kit before this was the old RX78 & Zaku 2 starters
that brings me back, i had the old mg zeta
My first Model kit and the only MG I have. Very good and solid kit. Somehow after long time, many parts that responsible for transforming became stiff.
This is on my list now, along with the PG and the ZZ Ver Ka
The transformation looks like that of the Delta Plus
Ok this has me interested... and speaking of painting something like this (or any other transformable gundam, like kyrios/arios/archer etc) what paint process to use in order to get scratch resistant paint in the more stressed points of transformation? (rotation and sliding parts) I experimented with acrylic paint on some of my models, great for static models but it's very fragile or gets too thick
Hell yeah, I'm building it right after the 2.0 Hyaku shiki
