A layer of topcoat fixed the problems on mine, but Bandai needs to step up their game. HGIBO kits of old are too tight for their own good, even in the most notorious areas we know of today, so it's indeed frustrating to see them step backwards in quality like that
"raise the arm to call the teacher" and "drop down to pick up the pencil that it dropped" should be universal terms within the Gunpla community
You really think so? That'd be awesome
@@mj2005gundam it sure would, 'the new international standard'
I love this aesthetic, and it looks like the poly caps will stay strong on this compared to the other kits.
The articulation section begs to differ
@@mj2005gundam please review the gundam universe shenlong gundam
can the wings on the helm be builded on the other side? instead of pointing forward, I want them pointing backward
You cannot do that as standard because the pegs are designed in a specific way. Of course, you can try and achieve that with mods
@@mj2005gundam can it be used to play around or it won't last long?lol
This and the grimgerde both are great looking kits. I'd like to have one of either lol
The Grimgerde is re-issued recently, nab it!!
Oh and also the waist ball-joint never seems to actually want to stay in the waist part,no matter how tight when using it ,it just wants to come out

@@mj2005gundam what kind of topcoat?can I put some scotch? or acrylic?
What are the socket leftovers for? As in what's its supposed to be in OG helmwige or grimgerde kits
Those leftover sockets are for the Grimgerde's feet
The ball at the back of the hand going into the wrist, does this hold the weight of the weapon ? Most don't and need a bit of bluetac
Since the Rapier is lightweight, the hands shouldn't have trouble holding it up
The IBO Gyan
That's not a visually reminiscent ripoff like some other Gyan
Looks like they upped the plastic quality quite a bit lately. I love that buttery plastic they've been using.
Hmm, it doesn't look toy-like, so I guess they have
what did you use to color the piping and the stripes on the knees
The stripes on the knees is just the black panel lining marker, while the piping is the white Gundam Marker. Simple stuff, nothing too fancy
When you think of it this is basically the IBO gyan
Yep, that's what a lot of people say
Dude I love this kit !!! Cant wait the rest of valkriye frames consider it only has 9 units (cmiiw)
Let's see if they make an HG Oltlinde
Since Sigrun has already released, I can't wait for Bandai Spirits to release Oltlinde and Gundam Vual Yuhana, too..
Same here man, same here. Get Dantalion Perfect Cowl in there too
@@mj2005gundam I couldn't care less if it is in P-Bandai release but for the Oltlinde and Vual Yuhana, I hope not... XD
Perfect kid to show in my case along with Bael and Grimjar 😁
Definitely
Love the valkyrie frame I hope bandai reissue hg helmwige reincar soon 😭
Yeah same... I want another one as I customized the one I had
Grimgerde's lost brother
Lost to time and memory
If I ever got this o don't think I would give the the horns and just make it look like a graze head
Bald helmet. I guess I get where you're coming from
