Just got this kit on backorder from Hobbylink Japan. Mazinger Z was a big part of my wifes childhood and we want to introduce it to our kids so I've sourced the original Anime for her to watch with them for "Mummy and Me" days. The kit is going to be a surprise for her when it arrives. She doesnt build but I do, but the goal is to have a representation of his favourite anime on her desk in our office. Amazing build and as always you've inspired me to push myself as a model maker.
That is the Power of Mazin! Thank you sir you just struck a cord in me with this build because I am old school and used to watch this with my nephew before work. Your work is always topnotch and straight forward as always. Thank you for the great kit and the fantastic presentation!
Ah, technoman blade, one of my earliest memories... I remember being a kid who couldn't even read and being with my grandfather and him telling what was said (didn't understand English yet either). It took me close to 20 years to find out it was technoman blade when I was playing a wii game at a friends place and the background seeming familiar. The scene in question was when the main character got tied up with tentacles by the main villain, who at that time was only a head in a jar. So thanks for bringing that one up again :) Also, love the scribing, I was thinking it came that way out of the box.
This video is epic. Reminds me why I love the hobby so much. I wish I had my old place so I can have room for am airbrush. I have been cooped up in a small room since the pandemic and I don't have room for anything.
LOL you are the only person I've ever heard mention Captain Bucky O'hare! Also that list of shows sounds like a great way to get into anime! Also I'd like to say I really like your stuff! It's very inspirational. I recently started to airbrush my gunpla, and I hope to one day get into LED lighting! Keep on building dude! : D.
A bit late to the party subbing your channel, but wanted to compliment your weathering effects; quite figuratively Just Right, man. Sometimes I overdo these - I think you struck just the right balance. Cheers!
never was a fan of this show, but I love pacific rim and it looks like they used that and gave this beast a 21st century live-action make over. and I love it. I might look into this.
Hey Otaku! I loved the music selection for this video. It has an old school classic 80's and Gloria Estafan vibe to it. I'm not the biggest fan of Manzinger but I love your paint job also.
I'm going to be studying the heck out of this video when I finally get my Mazinger Z! I might also be messaging you to pick your brain here and there, once I get going on it
That was probably Mazinga from the Shogun Warrior toyline. I think they also brought over Getter Robo, Grandizer, I dunno. Mazinga I remember. They were also supposed to translate all those animated shows to tie in but they never got the licenses. In the mid-1980s the original Mazinger Z was brought to the US and renamed "Tranzor Z" with an awful English dub. I was a kid at the time and I realized that dub was bad! The Mazinga toy that was part of the Shogun Warrior line was actually a renamed, imported GREAT Mazinger toy. I had one of those. He had firing rocket fingers. I used to knock over wood blocks with those rockets.
Hey Otaku, I know I'm kinda late but are you interested on doing MG 1/100 "Psycho Zaku". I know it's a time consuming build and difficult to find one online due to the situation we are in. But if you would do a build or review that would be greatly appreciated. Because I ordered one and I'm slightly worried about the build and interested on how you would build it. Thanks
Maybe?! It all depends if I can order anything myself. It's becoming more and more to keep making Gundam content when it's difficult to purchase them right now.
Love the videos! Do you ever add paint instead of stickers? I'm thinking of some of the RX-78 models that had a gold cross sticker for the shield. Also, do you have a video on removing nub marks and paneling, something for entry to mid-level builders?
I try my best to stay away from stickers because it looks really awkward on the surface. So I primarily stick with waterslide decals. Ask for a video tutorial on how to remove Nubs I don't have one at the moment but it is requested I will do it.
Very well done, one thing you could also do was light up a rocket punch, also liked how you hand painted the details. If I may make a suggestion, how bout some ZOIDS for your next kit, Liger Zero, Blade Liger or the Liger Murasame, just to name a few. Keep up the good work as always.
You didn´t use the Manzinger Z theme song during the build , that is ilegal in different countries and deserts 10 thumb downs but I will give you a thumb up because you did a excellent job.
Which LEDs do you use from Evans Design? I have purchased the “separated 7/19 V AC/DC in 8”.. but I see that I still have to connect the resistor for the LED to work properly. Please advise Thanks
Otaku Builder I have not seen this on your channel as of yet, you may already have a video on it, but, have you, or do you have videos on how to properly wire LEDs to the gunpla? Lime a full on video explanation?
I love Mazinger but it kinda sucks that their 1/60 kit is just a larger version of the 1/144... would have loved a completely new and more challenging build
I dont know anything about the robot but this seems like a LOT of panels even for a PG. I like Panel lines but was there this much detail in the cartoon?
That's not a PG. If anything, it's built along the lines of a Mega Size kit. But the animation WAS that sectional on the panels. Mazinger Z Infinity, rather.
I would like to point out that the HG infinity line isn't properly scaled with other scaled model kits, seeing as how mazinger is 18 meters tall, just slightly smaller then the RX-78-2. But then again I could be wrong.

came to watch a model building video, and now i have listen to that tokyo song about 10 times. thanks for the great music choice.
AWESOME!!!! Huge fan of Mazinger Z. Your build is KILLER!!!
This kit isn't for me but you knocked it out, man. Well done.
Enjoyed the build process - thanks for sharing.
I've ordered one for pick-up tomorrow :)
Was expecting tremendously amazing build, and thanks for giving the same ☺️

Wow amazing work my dude that kit was already a good looker and you blew the roof off.
never was a fan of this show, but I love pacific rim and it looks like they used that and gave this beast a 21st century live-action make over. and I love it. I might look into this.
Mazinkaiser would be an amazing kit. This is still a really good one
Or Getter G with its vibrant colors.
you are a joy to watch man!!!!
Love you work man. Please keep it up!
Bellissimo wow amazing job
Looking good man. I don't think I seen this anime I might have to go watch it now.👍👍👍👍👍👍
Hey Otaku! I loved the music selection for this video. It has an old school classic 80's and Gloria Estafan vibe to it. I'm not the biggest fan of Manzinger but I love your paint job also.
Amazing videos, you should open a blog or page to show over your kits with more pictures, (if you already have one please share it)
I'm going to be studying the heck out of this video when I finally get my Mazinger Z! I might also be messaging you to pick your brain here and there, once I get going on it
Gorgeous ! This video could have been better if you had displayed the massive size of this model. Nevertheless your work is beautiful.
what a great job!
Love it!!!
Absolutely beautiful what you did with the kit. What's the small red figure you had in the beginning?
I had a toy like that back in the 1970's.
That was probably Mazinga from the Shogun Warrior toyline. I think they also brought over Getter Robo, Grandizer, I dunno. Mazinga I remember.

That boi big
Mazinger Z debuted in Weekly Shonen Jump
Do you prefer to use Plastic cement to stick the parts permanently?
hola se que no lees español pero donde conceguiste el mazinger z porfas dime

haha i agree, that would of been epic!!!
Very nice work. May I know where to buy those LED ?
It's linked in the description
OMG! wish I have that same level of skills hehe
The movie is so ugly but Mazinga looks amazing! Definitely I've do buy one. Thanks for sharing!
AGREED LOL.
Pasadena 💕
Which LEDs do you use from Evans Design? I have purchased the “separated 7/19 V AC/DC in 8”.. but I see that I still have to connect the resistor for the LED to work properly.
Please advise
Thanks
Chip and mega led. 3volts. I show that information on the video.
Otaku Builder I have not seen this on your channel as of yet, you may already have a video on it, but, have you, or do you have videos on how to properly wire LEDs to the gunpla? Lime a full on video explanation?
Hello, do you do commissioned work?
I love Mazinger but it kinda sucks that their 1/60 kit is just a larger version of the 1/144... would have loved a completely new and more challenging build
I dont know anything about the robot but this seems like a LOT of panels even for a PG. I like Panel lines but was there this much detail in the cartoon?
That's not a PG. If anything, it's built along the lines of a Mega Size kit. But the animation WAS that sectional on the panels. Mazinger Z Infinity, rather.
@@mechaman88 Thanks for the answer. I love the looks on the panels.
Not in the original, but they "modernized" it for the movie "Mazinger Z: Infinity" that was released in 2017.
I would like to point out that the HG infinity line isn't properly scaled with other scaled model kits, seeing as how mazinger is 18 meters tall, just slightly smaller then the RX-78-2. But then again I could be wrong.
Please make a build with batteries
Second
