The hate on CGI is real here.... C'mon guys, it's not like the CGI were bad.. TBH, the CGI used in the Origins gave the MSs a realistic approach and made each details more apparent without the consequence of in-between frames from a traditional animation. Plus, this isn't like Knights of Sydonia, Berserk (2016), and Kemono Friends where everything was a complete mess of bad CGI. Origins CGI doesn't extend to people and the CGI here looks better. The animation is also crisp.
@@soundywaivy I doubt they are but if we could have more of the CG we got in The Origin I would be happy. Solid CG work that fits with the style of the show.
Bought Zaku II Char yesterday evening. Watching this review, I can honestly say that HG Origin version is the best kit to get new gunpla collectors excited building grunt/Zeon kit. The build is solid, posing is not a problem with little to no part fall off apart from excellent range of articulation, surface detail is amazing for HG level and the price - I can't believe the kit is much cheaper than HGUC Unicorn Unicorn Mode I bought earlier.
This is definitely the best HG Zaku, most accessories, detail, poseability, stability, value, everything you'd want is here and *nothing* is left out. However some may argue the RG looks better, or that the MG 2.0 is a better kit overall due to anime accuracy and the fact it's one of the best MG kits made to date.
It's closer than the modern Origin kits. The origin has panel detail and colors that match the Origin redesigns, while the 2.0 are more anime accurate in terms of that, however they only fail to capture the proportions, which isn't a bad thing in my book.
@@aldo_pinheiro *late reply coming in* I sent him this and a MG Ball. He made the ball and enjoyed it, he never built the Zaku despite it being his favourite MS. I imagine he gave it to his friend who not long after that got into Gunpla.
@@ceeme03 Oh, that's a shame... But I can't blame him though. It's been 3 years since I bought my favourite Gunpla, the RG MS-06S Zaku II, but I still haven't built it😅
He focuses how bad bootlegs are? He's not eve trying. And the only thing he said "good" about a bootleg is the low price. And if you appreciate bootlegs then I think you appreciate/like thieves, crime because bootleggers just STEAL an original work by artist and company who spend money and hard work to create ORIGINAL pieces. "I'm not having this argument again because a lot of people don't really appreciate bootlegs." PATHETIC.
you mean, with refular decals, after you done sticking them on , you sparay some top coat to keep it on nice and so it doesnt peel off in the future?. do you use tamiyas mark seter before sprayin?
The Zaku 2.0 was the first kit I got after about a decade of hiatus from model kits in general. That kit is super fun to pose with (although there are some annoying issues with it) and got me back into the hobby. The Psycho Zaku is essentially a Zaku 2.0 kit on the inside but I kind of like the Char Zaku aesthetic better.
Arguably the best, I'd say. There've been a lot of good Zaku kits, but this one has so many great weapons, excellent articulation, and looks wonderful.
It looks to be the best HG Zaku kit. All the accessories are there, not to mention body parts change also included. So yeah. Best HG Zaku kit it is! On another note, it would be funny if the last kit on the Origin OVA line is the Gundam itself, since the first kit is Char's Zaku II and with the Gundam being last, it's gonna be full circle.
for a high grade, i believe so. but it's not entirely surprising because they always find a room to improve zakus no matter what the grade is. even the old HGUC is (in my personal opinion) still one of the most articulated HG out there.
now i only just realized there hasn't been yet an HGUC Revive version of the original Zaku II being made, the Real Grade being a more pricey alternative.
They haven't really made a kit of "the original Zaku II" since 1981 or so. Originally, the Zaku's legs were actually pretty slender. Later on they started bulking up the legs - the MSV Zaku kits in 1984, and then the Hi-Zack, Zaku Kai and Zaku F2 all had the bulky legs, ultimately leading to the Master Grade Zaku in 1995. Even the "Retro" Zaku kits, like the 2002 HGUC and the Master Grade v2.0, retain that bulky-legged design. Personally I think a return to the old slender-leg design would be kind of interesting, and such a kit would certainly not be redundant.
For what reason will they release the normal Zaku II and Char's Zaku II as part of the Gunpla Evolution Project though? You can just paint your Zaku II Origin the "right" colors and that's it. But why would you though? Zaku II Origin has a much better color, especially Char's Zaku II.
For those who have a few sharpies lying around, i have a tip for your heat hawks. Colour the blade with a silver sharpie, then an orange, then a yellow. It's not the best, but it works.
The F2 WAS voted the "best" for a time, but that's only if you are into the design that's more or less departed from the original (not as much as FZ). But that's for a HG kit- MG 2.0 is a solid kit (as are all its variations), but people have complained about its "anime accuracy," as it is such a pleasure to pose and display, but it looks more slim and "serious" (like the RG) as opposed to the original HGUC release, which is probably the most appropriately-chunky version. Origin Type C/C5 is pretty much the definitive Zaku in-general now, although its negatives are the redesigned proportions, excessive (for some, not me) panel lines, and modified bazooka that differs from the "classic" version (this can be remedied by accessory-swapping or buying the system weapon set).
I would love to see the GM equivalent of this, even if it was an older GM like the 2 or Type C but just have a lot of the GM weapons like the beam rifles, bazooka's and regular rifles and pistols.
Love the origin zakus! I have the tri stars mash/gaia custom, and planning to get more in the future. I absolutely love the anti ship rifle. To bad that my silly cat knocked the figure off the table and it broke the peg that held the rifle in the hand.
Not just the best Zaku, it's the bar that ALL high grades should be judged against. Honestly the Origen kits are the best HG kits ever made, period. They have detail and pose ability on par with Real Grade without falling apart. My only complaint is the color. It could have been a more "army" green like the 08th ms team one. But that is personal preference.
The MG Psycho Zaku is basically the MG Zaku Ver.2.0 in R-1A guise. This Type C/C5 HG borrows a lot of tricks from the MG Zaku Ver.2.0, that's why it's as poseable as it is. Bandai ought to release this in MG form. It isn't too hard to adapt the C/C5 changes and apply them to the base MG Zaku II F/J Ver.2.0, and we'd get a lot of weapon options as a bonus.
There is a toe, just a little tricky to notice. You have to pull up on the tip of the tie and press down on the top of the foot. The toe points up and the heel extends down. It's really helpful for getting more intricate poses on the ground.
Just finished this guy. First gunpla I ever got. Pretty happy with him, though if I could I would've done a few things different in how I built him (and probably NOT used the included stickers). Just bought the RGM-79 Origin kit and looking forward to building it. Got some stands too, thought it would be fun to have a thing with the two grunts.
This Zaku II is so far, yes, one of the best kind I've ever seen; thanks for the review, I guess I'll have this for my Zaku II. . . About the best Zaku, I didn't really knew much, but so far, my opinion falls to Zaku I Thunderbolt. Despite the limited articulation and lots of stickers (bad yellow for some), it's still worth to buy for a load of weapons (not as much as this Zaku II), great decals, great design, and if you like orange, go get it. :D
The Origins kit are across the board excellent. I could get any of them and be happy. I think there's a multi kit Origins water decal set out now that will fix some of your issues with your clear stickers
I've only build this and RG Zaku (have an MG on my backlog and an old Zaku I HG that I also recently build) and I think the Origins kits are better than RG
I just bought this kit last night. I love it as well but went with the commander head for it. Just waiting for fine tip Gundam Markers to do panel lining.
Yes it is the best. I have RG Zaku II and RG Chars Zaku II because I also love the Zaku type mobile suits. The issue mostly is the skirt armor. Constantly falls off with the slightest touch. All the pipes on the kit are a pain in the ass to make with each of those small armor pieces easily able to be broken ( I have broke a couple on the Zaku II). But they are both beautiful kits when fully built not meant for beginners to the RG line at all. The amount of stickers are amazing to fully customize the Zaku II with different rank stinkers, symbols etc. I say you should pick up either Or and give your own opinion but for me they are both 8/10
The Zaku II MG 2.0 is my favorite kit, and I've built a ton of gunpla. Hardly any seam lines, a great inner frame, and super stable. The only problem with it might be the cables.
The origins zakus are probably the best 1/144 scale zakus. I was skeptical when people said the Zaku 2.0 MG was one of the best MGs but when I tried it I was like hot damn this is nice. Except the fucking tubing, everything else is amazing.
Near finished customizing a Zaku that I bought. Has a MMP90mm machine gun which I prefer over the standard 120mm. Going for a desert storm look. As much I like other designs, you can never get enough of this guy. The AK47 of mobile suit production. ZAKU LIVES MATTER.
It's a total package worthy of its cheap price. You can easily build an army of Zaku with these kits. The RG one is a damn pain to pose, parts will fall off. The 2.0 MG is nice but it's much more expensive price-wise.
Shirakawa Hakase Personal preference of colours isn't really important when it comes to making the 1:1. It's like how they didn't bend over backwards for fans of the RX-78-3 colour scheme when they built the Gundam 1:1
I disagree while Zakus are cool to us gundam fans, they are not nearly as recognizable to people outside the whole gundam shazzam. Same could be argued with unicorn but unicorn has better "wow" value
I started to doudt this was a model kit as you showed its movment. Most kits I build are cheap and have areas that scream “I’m a model kit!” Like joints, foot joints, and when you pop off the head. This zaku looks like a rubber figure made in a factorty.
I got this gundam without even knowing, I just wanted a zaku and I didn't see any other zakus (at the time) so I got it and I realized it was this gundam and I loved it even more

Putting spare ammo on the shield doesn't seem to be the wisest idea.
Enlapan Lima Better to put it on the shield than the MS itself. If the ammo explodes only the shield gets damaged and not the MS itself.
Good for storage.. Better Than just put it away
what about the ammo at the bottom of the exhaust ? XD lol
It’s probably plastic explosives anyways, and would act as spaced armour.

There's nothing "anime accurate" about the MG Zaku v2.0, sadly. It's like they went for the retro look but couldn't quite commit to it.
ExtremeSManpig even with char zaku II? its not same kit?
It's closer than the modern Origin kits. The origin has panel detail and colors that match the Origin redesigns, while the 2.0 are more anime accurate in terms of that, however they only fail to capture the proportions, which isn't a bad thing in my book.
Char's Zaku II are just recolors with different accessories for every grade.
How good is the MG zaku 2.0 compare to recent MG kit in 2016 til now?
When he was moving the head back and forth I could only think of one thing.... Giggity...
Who else but Quagmire...
This zaku is amazing
get it, zaku amazing.
Slufffy Gamer it really drives me ballistic how great it is.
It's not even from Build Fighters, though :P
Memento Mori, punny
*FLAMENCO INTENSIFIES*
Axelnightmare a Zaku is still a Zaku, no matter where or when it was made.
The old HG gave the option of having a left handed Zaku II as did the HG Zaku III, why can't there be a left trigger hand Bandai why!?!?
I just ordered this kit + tools for my friend as a Christmas present for his first gunpla.
I pray to the gunpla gods he likes this kit.

For me the coolest Zaku, in terms of design, is the Zaku II改 from 0080...though this one is impressive too.
the foot has 2 parts. If u press the front section up, the rear section will shift down all by itself.
dat good yeah just like the Zaku I origin
the best zaku to date is..... "zaku"..aurelius :D

Holy yes!
We need some type of 3.0 MG Zaku and an Origin ver would work perfectly
The RGs are very annoying to pose. Parts WILL fall off.
Kev Lim yeah, makes me want to break the kit
ferny tee Most RG's will break themselves so you don't even have to try.

It's pretty damn impressive. Goes well with the HG Revive RX-78!! Good review as always.
I'd argue that it doesn't. The level of surface detail and the overall styling doesn't seem like they'd fit all that well.
Alvin Tay I agree. I think the G30 HG Grandaddy goes better with the Origin Zeon kits
now i only just realized there hasn't been yet an HGUC Revive version of the original Zaku II being made, the Real Grade being a more pricey alternative.

@Black Chandelier Mirage in the span of three years later everything changed a lot and I have already owned the "Revive" HG kit, lol.
I was also surprised for a small 1/144 HG it was well done. Spent about four hours constructing it.

Its the best type of zaku2 i love ur vids
this looks cool
Got mine around August this year, came with all those weapons + 2 tomahawks and the anti-ship rifle. Definitely one of my favourite gunpla
This is honestly the perfect army building Zaku.

This is the first video of Mechagaikotsu that I watched
"But for now, IKIMASU!"
Now that is a review beginning that would make Amuro himself happy!
Love how the thumbnail says "best Zaku to date?" then you admit to building 3 other ones. Ubertrolling :)
What color would you use to panel line the green armor?
just the eye though and articulation and accessories just blows me away!

this was my first kit, awesome kit!
“Wow you’re telling me the Origin Zaku comes with a heat *hawk too, huh*?”
Patiently waiting for that Double Zeta Ver Ka review
hands down the best is the psycho zaku. the amount of ordinance that thing has is just impressive.
I just noticed..... you actually got their backpacks the other way around @ 3:57, according to the instructions at least
The Origins kit are across the board excellent. I could get any of them and be happy.
I think there's a multi kit Origins water decal set out now that will fix some of your issues with your clear stickers
I've only build this and RG Zaku (have an MG on my backlog and an old Zaku I HG that I also recently build) and I think the Origins kits are better than RG
Yup, definitely the best of all the Zaku line in HG. :D
Nothing can change my mind zakus is the best it look more Russian in my opinion
I just bought this kit last night. I love it as well but went with the commander head for it. Just waiting for fine tip Gundam Markers to do panel lining.
That kit and MG 2.0 is the best, I do have the Char's Zaku Origin version and it is absolutely fantastic,.
Just got into gunpla and I know you’ll have a video about a kit I’m looking into Ty!
Yes it is the best. I have RG Zaku II and RG Chars Zaku II because I also love the Zaku type mobile suits. The issue mostly is the skirt armor. Constantly falls off with the slightest touch. All the pipes on the kit are a pain in the ass to make with each of those small armor pieces easily able to be broken ( I have broke a couple on the Zaku II).

The amount of stickers are amazing to fully customize the Zaku II with different rank stinkers, symbols etc. I say you should pick up either Or and give your own opinion but for me they are both 8/10
The Zaku II MG 2.0 is my favorite kit, and I've built a ton of gunpla. Hardly any seam lines, a great inner frame, and super stable. The only problem with it might be the cables.
I need one of these and I have to paint it up in the Ramba Ral color scheme
Yesterday I found it in my local store and I bought it. Its my favorite desin of the zaku. Thats what I like from the origin and the anime too
I'm glad this is my first Zaku II
ZAKU SQUAD! I have at LEAST 10 different ZAKU variants. Love this
I've been dying to get a good zaku kitso I'm looking forward to this one
It looks amazing! I like it. The rifle is pretty long and I would recommend buying/building it. Just a great design and good articulation.
You should definitely review both Zakus, the RG and MG 2.0
This zaku looks the best out of all the hgs
Gold Tier right? Platinum would be nuts!
The C-5 with GTO style machinegun is sick
Just bought this sucker. Can't wait to build him!
The origins zakus are probably the best 1/144 scale zakus. I was skeptical when people said the Zaku 2.0 MG was one of the best MGs but when I tried it I was like hot damn this is nice. Except the fucking tubing, everything else is amazing.
I want this kit now. I love Zakus a lot
Pose with beltfed machine gun in one hand and regular machine gun in the other for an awesome looking duel wield
Can't wait for the HG Zaku II revive
Near finished customizing a Zaku that I bought. Has a MMP90mm machine gun which I prefer over the standard 120mm. Going for a desert storm look. As much I like other designs, you can never get enough of this guy. The AK47 of mobile suit production. ZAKU LIVES MATTER.
Yup the best zaku ever. I'm gonna pre order it
Is this 1/144?
After I get the RX-78-2 revive, I'm snatching up one of these bad boys!!
It's a total package worthy of its cheap price. You can easily build an army of Zaku with these kits. The RG one is a damn pain to pose, parts will fall off. The 2.0 MG is nice but it's much more expensive price-wise.
Absolutely ! ! ! ! Love! ! ! ! ! zakus moblie suits to if I had one I prefer black anyone else psycho zaku is my favorite though.
I just got to have this zaku! Best Zaku overall
Dang, HG's are getting details!
I like this zaku origin version,look's like more flexible and the arm unit
How do you tighten joints on a model kit? Mainly the wings and pack on the Lunagazer.
Too bad Bandai is shit and chose the Unicorn for the 1:1 statue instead of Char's Zaku
I wouldn't want Char's Zaku personally. It's much better in green.
I personally prefer the Black Tri Star version...
Well, maybe this is why they didn't choose Zaku for 1:1 statue.
Shirakawa Hakase
Personal preference of colours isn't really important when it comes to making the 1:1.
It's like how they didn't bend over backwards for fans of the RX-78-3 colour scheme when they built the Gundam 1:1
I disagree while Zakus are cool to us gundam fans, they are not nearly as recognizable to people outside the whole gundam shazzam. Same could be argued with unicorn but unicorn has better "wow" value
Pat Libsoraled
Except the Zaku is one of the most recognisable pieces from Japanese media. It's like a Japanese storm trooper.
I have only one thing to declare!
Perfect!
For me the build was great it took me 3 hours but wort it and the pannel linning amazing
Oh god what's the point of a shield if you blow up when your hit.
For it to blow up and not you. Having the shield between you and your spare explosives isn't a bad idea.
I started to doudt this was a model kit as you showed its movment. Most kits I build are cheap and have areas that scream “I’m a model kit!” Like joints, foot joints, and when you pop off the head. This zaku looks like a rubber figure made in a factorty.
I got this gundam without even knowing, I just wanted a zaku and I didn't see any other zakus (at the time) so I got it and I realized it was this gundam and I loved it even more
I just have one question can i use the type c-5s side chest parts and use the type c chest on the kit or not?
I want a zaku to add to my collection and I wand a sniper wielding gunpla too. This checks both box and goes straight to my shopping cart
there is a heel/toe bend at the feet watch type v3's review on the chars zaku origin
Hey I'm really happy for you and I'mma let you finish but Lunamaria Zaku Warrior Gunner is the best Zaku of ALL TIME!
Thoughts on the KOs being made of these?
I know i know let's be honest here
*zaku is yEs*
i like how you did this review
I'm a simple guy. I see Zaku, I click like
hey, mecha, just want to ask are those accesories also included in the hg chars zaku 2 the origin?
+Schimitar RgB everything but the belt fed machinegun, that comes with chars zaku I
That's not 100% correct. This kit comes with the arm vulcans, new middle and side chest pieces unique to this kit.
