QUICK TIP FOR THE EXTENSION OF LEGS (RE-POST): You can simply swap the leg joints with each other (C1 & C2) to make the legs longer and the articulation much better (full split).
As someone who doesn't love 1/144 scale, this one looks so cool I'm still going to get it. GOD I can not wait for an eventual MG of this kit. Absolutely beautiful.
Oh there will be an MG. WFM seems to be a big hit in Japan as WFM kits are sold out left and right. I’ve had as much a hard time tracking an HG Aerial as I did finding an MGEX Strike Freedom. But luck had it a random Toys ‘r Us in Odaiba had a few restocked.
I think it would be interesting if it's next upgrade actually made it look more vintage like a mix between the base unit and the granddaddy RX-78-2, difficult to pull off I know but not impossible considering some conversion artwork of IBO Gundams converted to UC designs.
The evolution of the aerial gundam has not began yet and i am expecting that the price 4 the next version of aerial gundam will quadruple and nobody will able to buy it because its nore expensive than any p bandai kits and and most expensive that bandai will produce
Theres so much detail to this kit that its basically a 75% real grade. Which makes you think; what will the master grade and real grade look like if they ever decide to make one.
the full mechanics 1/100 is just a cockpit away from being a master grade, I imagine the real grade and actual master grade will be insane (and also take another year or two)
Was a gigantic disappointment to me. If this is iron blooded orphans successor it sucks. Sucks compared to 00 to ibo even wing. Feels like G gundam is more serious than this. A good anime doesnt equal a good gundam series, and i think they didnt see this
I just finished building this kit over the weekend. The first thing that grabbed my attention was the classic polycaps have been replaced with a full poly runner.
I don't know if it's just me. But, the aesthetics kind of reminds me of Guyver with a little touch of age gundam. I LOVE the design of this line of kits by the way!
The trailer also shows scenes with blue beam sabers. My guess would be that the green lasers are the ‘non-lethal training’ lasers they use for school duels, while blue is for lasers at full power/lethality
Hey Mecha, just for correctness' sake, the Lfrith's name in the show is actually pronounced more closely to the spelling. In the show (with the Japanese accent) they say something like "lap-fur-iss". So in English, itd be kinda like "luh-frith". I still think its funny that the name Lfrith is made of so many sounds that just aren't used in Japanese very often. The whole flipped R/L thing, Fs sounding like Ps, and THs sounding kinda funny in a Japanese accent (ie, they say Hasaway instead of Hathaway). Sorry for the short essay, but hearing "rubris" just makes my brain itchy.
This is a Gundam design that I started off not liking, and even though it’s still not an all-time favorite(I think I prefer Barbatos to this for a modern Gundam design), I think it looks great. The design aspects from both the Unicorn, Legillis, Barbatos, and the G-Self look phenomenal on this Gundam! I also appreciate when a main Gundam is way different compared to what we see with other Gundams(examples being the blue Beam Sabers and effect parts, the funnel shield, etc). Very unique, and I think it’s cool!
i remember seeing this unit and having a sudden wave of happiness go over me because of how much it reminds me of the Barbados, IBO was my fist introduction to gundam and the Barbados Lupus was my first kit (because of your video on it)
watching Adam Savage building a PG unleashed rx-78 and two intro videos of your channel and I'm hooked. Pulled the trigger on this exact model for my first gunpla. can't wait for it to arrive!!!!!! Thank you for the quality content ^^
I'm a beginner gunpla enthusiast, and so far the only things I've been putting together are the ooooold 08th MS Team MG kits. Keep hearing that they're apparently really bad, but I've honestly been enjoying the hell out of building them. I was intending to keep all the Gunpla I buy in the same scale... But now I just don't know if I have the patience to wait for MG or whatever Full Mechanics is. The G-Witch designs are just so damn good looking. This is gonna get expensive in the long run, huh?
i got gundam aerial rebuild when i visited a comic con, first gundam that i ever built up, and it was a lot of fun building, ended up ordering gundam calibarn due to how much i genuinely enjoyed it.
I can already see the perfect grade with insane leds, it's like this design was intended to make a mindblowing Perfect Grade kit. Wallet: here we gooo!
This show has stolen my heart. It took its spot from GUNDAM WING which everyone knows how good that show was...the fact that this show has only just begun and it's already a masterpiece just with its 6 episodes (including the prologue there)...that's how you know this show is truly special
I still gotta give my thanks to you for helping me enter my interest in gundam. I absolutely love these mechas and buying the kits. so thank you for making mecha videos.
About the model, this is so damn cool! Thank you for sharing! Not about the model. Man... I gotta be honest, I am a huge fan of your whole aesthetic! I love the nails, the sweater, all of it!
Great video as usual! Since you have lately top coated your gunplas, a great idea would be a top coat tutorial. I tried to top coat (flat) one of my gunpla but I did not enjoy the final result. I find your panel line tutorial very interesting, so the same with top coat would be fantastic!
I have this kit since last Saturday and I enjoyed this design. At first, I thought that this line of Aerial will just reuse some joints of older gunpla, but I was wrong. This kit is amazing and is like Aerial just jumped out of the anime. The only complaint about her is the stickers for the GUND-FORMAT (correct me if I'm wrong) on the head, thighs, the shoulder, and the backpack when they should've just done it in the exact same matter as the chest. Other than that, she is a fantastic kit and it was fun to build and it still blows my mind. I keep messing around with it and it's just mid-perfection. Still waiting for the Aerial Rebuild's price to lower a bit.
I've never been so torn between wanting to say "this suit doesn't look great" and "this suit looks really cool". There's something about the design that doesn't hit, but it's got really neat aesthetics here and there.
The first episode of the anime was amazing!! Give me more of them girls right now!! Ariel was also just so gorgeous, it's now my favorite MS ever. I can't wait for my Ariel to arrive in a few days. So excited to put it next to Lfrith and Beguir-Beu
Hey Mecha, have you ever thought of doing a video on a guide to top coating gunpla? I would love to see your process and what you use when top coating various gunpla and any tips and tricks you might have
Seeing that Shield in action in the first episode gave me a lot of forerunner vibes from halo 4 and 5, such a cool and creative weapon for a mech to have
As much as I want this kit, I have accepted the fact that it’s probably gonna be instantly sold out and it’ll be hard to get if you’re not literally checking stores/sites 24/7. I *really* hope Bandai has gotten enough made/their supply crap sorted out for this release.
I just ordered this key and it's going to be my very first Gunpla kit after eyeing them for almost 3 years or so! Depending on how the build goes, I'm thinking about getting the Gundam Barbatos HG next
1995: Gundam takes off in the west as a vehicle for selling toys to children. 2023: Gundam takes off in the west as a vehicle for selling toys to adults.
Finally got mine put together last night. Loved the build. Only thing that's irking me is the chest. Swear I cleaned everything properly, but segments of it feel like they didn't quite fit together properly. Mainly the mid chest where the white abdomen piece meets the yellow inner chest piece. The yellow looks a bit sunk in when the blue segments set in. Weird, but still a damn good and fun build.
I just scored a Lfrth yesterday and seeing your review for Aerial.... Yeah I just gotta get it too! Great job with the extra effort man, it looks way better than ever!
I'm new to Gundam, just completed the HG Aerial and really enjoyed the build! I've ordered a pour type marker and Delpi water slide kit for this one as well!
I used a faber-castel XL felt black pen on mine and the detail came out silly good. it would have been nice to see water transfers too, yeah. the FCXS pen gave me a lot of control over eg. deep blacks and panels on the blue/yellow GUND-bits incl. underneath and keeping solid black outlines around all the yellow.
I love how the Episode 0 of the New Gundam was too serious and about war and alot of violence. While Episode 1 was a fantasy HS thing with a TOUCH of Yuri. Ngl love the anime and the gunpla models.
Agree except the high school setting is very clearly the space corpo groups place for raising new members and employees. The happy school life setting feels way too happy, like it'll be shattered any moment now
@@Samantha_yyz You are not so far off with how the happy school setting getting shattered in any moment if you read the short story in their official website from Gundam Aerial’s point of view.
@@bluelight8025 I'll have to read that, I've not seen it when I was in the official site for the show just the other day. Must have missed that update!!!!
Ngl when I saw the promo pics for the Aerial the design didn't click for me at all, but seeing it now in actual model kit form, I am loving the design philosophy of it. It looks like a futuristic space supercar, which is a breathe of fresh air for the mobile suits we're used to. Really hope to get this soon.
I just got mine yesterday I just finished putting mine together 2 minutes ago now I'm starting on the real Grade sazabi now you pick a good time to drop this review
This was my first gunpla. Spendt 5ish hours having a blast last week building it. And I might be hooked on this. So will buy another set come march. I'm thinking about the rg sazabi or the hg Lfrith next.
As an ibo fan, this kit strikes my fancy for its nearly complete inner frame gimmick, really cool, and even the manipulators resemble the same ones on gundam frames
the design of Aerial is something I didn't think I'd like as I'm someone who prefers a design more like the Graze over say, Gundam Exia. However, after actually watching the show, which I think is consistently excellent, I LOVE the Aerial. The design has great notes from Exia, RX-78-2, and even some Barbatos flavoring. What I love most is that the Aerial in the show actually feels like a piece of heavy machinery with weight and impact, yet a lot of grace. Even the whole AI-assisted layering system with the GUND interaction between the MS system and the spacenoid physiology is so reminiscent of the Alaya-Vinjana system. It's like the perfect half way point between IBO and MSG imo
For an HG this is outstanding. I think I prefer this to what I've seen of the 1/100 so far. I definitely prefer the holographic stickers for the powered up effect.
I haven't even watched the anime and I love the design and the build. The only flaw I had were the chest parts that come detach when you move its arms and the white piece on the arms that detach.
I LOVE this design. Unfortunately I didn't think to pre-order (never needed to for a Gundam kit before) and they sold out everywhere very quickly they hit NZ.
Already had it pre-ordered and i had it shipped out to me asap together with the HG Lifrith and HG Beguir-Bue. Will take a couple weeks because i went with cheaper shipping.
When he said there was a problem with the legs I got really worried. Then he said they were just a bit limited in the thigh rotation and I was like “so there’s basically no problem at all” I’m fine with limited joints on model kits as long as they stay together well
Yeah, I kinda notice how Mecha expects s a model kit have a human like articulation when i fact a giant robot would have as much movement as a model kit like this.
@@johngapud9934 I'll be honest, my biggest issue is that my Aerial is completely destroyed in terms of thigh and ab articulation by Chuchu's Demi Trainer. I'm not gonna cry too much, but the Lfrith also being better in that department does sting. I guess thats the reality of having such a gorgeously layered design though, things are going to clash. I'm sure it wont be a problem when i put her on a stand with the bits

QUICK TIP FOR THE EXTENSION OF LEGS (RE-POST): You can simply swap the leg joints with each other (C1 & C2) to make the legs longer and the articulation much better (full split).
Been wanting to say this,came to the comments if someone already pointed this out.
@@unknownuser-vm9jm, actually I've pointed this out the other day but it was flagged because I added a facebook link 🥲 sadly the thread is gone
Does this also work for aerial rebuild?
what action base stand for this kit? thank you
@@xaklrit does but the sideskirt would be too short to cover up the upper thigh than the Aerial ones
As someone who doesn't love 1/144 scale, this one looks so cool I'm still going to get it. GOD I can not wait for an eventual MG of this kit. Absolutely beautiful.
They did announce a 1/100 full mechanics version
Oh there will be an MG. WFM seems to be a big hit in Japan as WFM kits are sold out left and right. I’ve had as much a hard time tracking an HG Aerial as I did finding an MGEX Strike Freedom. But luck had it a random Toys ‘r Us in Odaiba had a few restocked.
I just love how the shield incorporates into the main unit and the sharp curves it has instead of the block style were used too XD
SAME!!
I greatly prefer curves and angles over blocky designs.
Ariel I think it's my favorite MS ever
Victory gundams are curvy. Literally every zeon's MS are curvy. Where have you been
They sold green but only on PBANDAI which is really so pointless
For those who want it cheap in the US, Target (surprisingly) has them for $15.99
Target is a great place to find Gunpla. I’ve even seen them blow out MG kits for $6 on clearance.
Real. I got it there and having build it yet. Working x2 x0
I just got mine from Target!!! 15.99 it was
$11.99 now 😬 I just picked one up today from Target
@@junglist313 Well great, I JUST left my local target after getting this, and now I gotta go back and check this...
The design of this mobile suit is awesome and the first episode of the show was great. Hope they make a master grade version of this!!
Imagine a 1/60 model
We have a full mechanics of it coming out soon, so that's the same size as a MG
Unfortunately, we might get the IBO treatment. A full mechanics 1/100 has been announced
Prologue and ep 1 are already aired
it's design is actually generic and the first episode is also generic
The best thing I love in Gundam Aerial's awesome base unit design is that;
*It isn't a mid-season upgrade that also slapped bits on it!!!*
Mid season? Bro we haven't even got there yet....
Additional weapon to compensate Funnels getting banned later.
@@tomvhresvelg9286 that is pretty most likely and im all for it. Additional armor too instead of bit charging mode
I think it would be interesting if it's next upgrade actually made it look more vintage like a mix between the base unit and the granddaddy RX-78-2, difficult to pull off I know but not impossible considering some conversion artwork of IBO Gundams converted to UC designs.

@@alonsogabriel9336 for real grade? Very true. I do think they'll do a master grade before real grade
@@declan2775 ah my bad, yes for real grade

I like that the anime is basically Utena + Gundam / Mobile Suits!

I really love the designs from G Witch with the smooth pieces and angles instead of blockiness. It's a nice change.
5:41 wow even with no extra work done it still looks amazing, they did a really good job with this HG
I just finished building this kit over the weekend. The first thing that grabbed my attention was the classic polycaps have been replaced with a full poly runner.
Looks good! It's got sort of like 00/Barbatos/G-Self mashed in together and made this. Love the overall design.
I don't know if it's just me. But, the aesthetics kind of reminds me of Guyver with a little touch of age gundam. I LOVE the design of this line of kits by the way!
2 years later and I'm telling you it is not just you I see guyver too
Weird how they give you blue beams for the sabers when in the show it was green. Oh well, still looks like a fantastic kit!
Remember Star wars started beam sabers they might upgrade to blue sabers later in the show
Green is probably a lower output beam used for training in the school
Thats their way to give us blue flat beam sabers for Transient Gundam.
The trailer also shows scenes with blue beam sabers. My guess would be that the green lasers are the ‘non-lethal training’ lasers they use for school duels, while blue is for lasers at full power/lethality
yeah green is weaker beam like in prolugue it was blue
Man that episode 1 tho! Already making space on my desk for this kit. It's quickly rising up as one of my favorite looking Gundams already.
i got the whole set, can't wait
Mmm... Hathaway animation is better imo
@Ironaho Obviously, it's a movie. Movies have much higher budgets.
Hey Mecha, just for correctness' sake, the Lfrith's name in the show is actually pronounced more closely to the spelling. In the show (with the Japanese accent) they say something like "lap-fur-iss". So in English, itd be kinda like "luh-frith". I still think its funny that the name Lfrith is made of so many sounds that just aren't used in Japanese very often. The whole flipped R/L thing, Fs sounding like Ps, and THs sounding kinda funny in a Japanese accent (ie, they say Hasaway instead of Hathaway). Sorry for the short essay, but hearing "rubris" just makes my brain itchy.
just used google translate for french pronunciation, it's basically elvis
Didn't Mecha say in the LFrith's review that he would stick to the prononciation of the kanjis on the box ?
Its specifically a reference to Lord Frith, from Watership Down for anybody curious -- hence the many many rabbit motifs in the prologue.
@@Fayheurblode but he is pronouncing that wrong as well lol
i gave up with spelling and calling it le-frith...

Waiting on the MG, even if it’s gonna take a year or two. This HG makes me hopeful for the tech they’re gonna put in it.
it's amazing that to date, every grade of kit has been seeing some kind of an upgrade

The fact that I could play with this after building it just makes this kit more than perfect for me, sturdy asl
The stickers on the center of the head, on the chest and on the legs do this beautiful shine like the mobile suit is actually on and active.
just ordered this as my first gunpla. Im so hyped about putting one together for the first time!
And now it's your first girlpla too lol

Seeing that Shield in action in the first episode gave me a lot of forerunner vibes from halo 4 and 5, such a cool and creative weapon for a mech to have
I got this model as my first kit shortly before my departure from HND and like it a lot.
Love this build I got it for my baby brother and he had a great time with it
Wow. Pretty sick!! I look forward to the MG & RG versions if & when they ever come out.
You know what, a solid kit doesn't need to have the most amazing articulation
Definitely
I got this kit from Target yesterday. Instead of using stickers for the eyes and camera. I used a metalic green Gundam Marker.
As much as I want this kit, I have accepted the fact that it’s probably gonna be instantly sold out and it’ll be hard to get if you’re not literally checking stores/sites 24/7. I *really* hope Bandai has gotten enough made/their supply crap sorted out for this release.

You can use the shield mount as a backpack and go crazy with attaching gunbits, you can even attach beam rifle to it.

I just watched the 1st episode of the new series but looking at this model kit I'm noticing how feminine this new Gundam is, it looks Awesome!!!
Looks like Exia/Astray out frame (kinda). Love your videos! Very informative and fun to watch!
A quick work from you! Really appreciate it
MG's Voice: Haro! Amuro, Build Gunpla?
MG's Sleeve: WE DRINK OF THE BLOOD OF THE INNOCENT
I haven't even watched the anime and I love the design and the build. The only flaw I had were the chest parts that come detach when you move its arms and the white piece on the arms that detach.
It's the MS that brought Suletta Mercury to school, then she saved a person drifting in space who doesn't want to be rescued!
really wish the elbows were the same ones that they used on the HG gundam strike
I have a feeling they made Aerial first
Then made Lfrith and improved on what they had
But released Lfrith first because of the pilot
I LOVE this design. Unfortunately I didn't think to pre-order (never needed to for a Gundam kit before) and they sold out everywhere very quickly they hit NZ.
This kit seems incredible, I have to go get one.
really love this gunpla. look forward for full mechanic ver review next year
Mecha ,It’s so popular that In my country you can only get one per person. I got my hand yesterday and finished it and it’s really good kit.
Already had it pre-ordered and i had it shipped out to me asap together with the HG Lifrith and HG Beguir-Bue. Will take a couple weeks because i went with cheaper shipping.
just ordered this kit and can't wait
When he said there was a problem with the legs I got really worried.
Then he said they were just a bit limited in the thigh rotation and I was like “so there’s basically no problem at all”
I’m fine with limited joints on model kits as long as they stay together well
Yeah, I kinda notice how Mecha expects s a model kit have a human like articulation when i fact a giant robot would have as much movement as a model kit like this.
@@johngapud9934 I'll be honest, my biggest issue is that my Aerial is completely destroyed in terms of thigh and ab articulation by Chuchu's Demi Trainer. I'm not gonna cry too much, but the Lfrith also being better in that department does sting.
I guess thats the reality of having such a gorgeously layered design though, things are going to clash. I'm sure it wont be a problem when i put her on a stand with the bits
this looks cool more like humanoid than other gundams this has a unique design for me
HG never catch my eye, minus a few. This one really has. Going to be finding one myself.
I just got my first gunpla, which is my favorite Gundam, Exia
I was waiting for this to pop you know Aerial is just 🔥🔥🔥
