phenex (standard) has no tails, narrative ver has the tails, the narrative has a more yellowish gold to it (its in the video). As for your second question, they arent different suits, this is, pertaining gunpla releases, standard version is the baseline variant of the suit, having the "narrative ver" meaning this is the suit rereleased as it was portrayed in the movie Mobile Suit Gundam Narrative
Dude i want to ask? I got the phenex nar to and i want ro display it with the armed armor de floating. But cant figure it out which stand that compatible with the peg hole in DE
Is there a stand you could recommend for this? I wanna pose him but he just keeps falling over so I’m thinking of getting a stand but one that can hold his weight
I have the narrative ver. but Jesus the nubs are horrible! I stopped building it after doing the chest and both arms, I just could not get past the nub marks even when using the paint marker. Maybe one in the future I'll go back to finishing it.
So the narrative has a more godly gold and pig tails and the normal has white gold and no pig tails. My only issue with the kit is decals (as you said) and scratching parts during transformation.
Pretty much, but paint wasn't really coming off during transformation, but it doesn't hurt to be extra careful, like dont use tools, its nubmark removal that really chips bits of the paint off
@@NhanduArt That was also a concern, the nubs. But that refractive gold helps hide them well enough. My local store actually has both in stock, so it's all down to which I prefer. Thanks for making this comparison video, it's really helped.
maybe haha, it depends on you and what you look for in a kit, if youre the type of collector that collects this sort of thing, its one of the current holy grail kits.. but if youre just after a good modelling experience rather than the sake of having that specific one, then the PG unicorn/banshee norn are great kits in of themselves.. that or 3-8 MG's, or ascend into Godhood with this haha. PERSONALLY sure its price tier is nuts (special coated AND pbandai) but if it will make you happy, you cant put a price on that (as long as you have the funds for it and that its not taking away from obligations).
@@PrimeYsiadGL The only 2.0 I see for now is the MGEX Unicorn. But the price though. So far if you want the size along with articulation, just go for the PG. It's worth it. But recently there's an announcement about PG Phenex Narrative Version. SO who knows.
They both have one thing in common, they are both dust magnets
So true, best cleaned off with a microfiber cloth
@@NhanduArtor keep it before a glass.
finally, someone is actually holding these dust magnets with gloves on
Coming in hot from the future to say thank you. The chest was so stupid to transform. With your help I was able to finally able to get it done.
If you have done decals yet, you can use Future to seal the gold without ruining the finish.
Future what
Future wife
great job you really deserve more subs
Thank you! it means a lot coming from you I really appreciate it
Not worth it but I don’t regret it at all. I pretty much sums up the Phenex.
Thanks for your video! I had trouble figuring out how to open up the armor! Well done!!
Lawrence Chow glad I could help!
got recomended this vid , great job bud
cosmos master wow that’s awesome, thanks man🙌
I like this kit, perfectly shows every detail on the Phenex, the only thing is dislike about it is the fact that it feels too gold
Wait until you see the RG Phenex's Gold
The difference is the tail in the shield and the color of the gold coated? What is the story of phoenex and phoenex narative version?

Mobile Suit Gundam Narrative
Now that MGEX Unicorn has been out that means there's probably going to be Pbandai MGEX Phenex and Banshee and Perfectibility
This didn't age well hehe

I have actually yet to try this, let me get back to you
@@NhanduArt did you figure it out?
@@roostein602dude still havent figured it out yet 😄
What metallic gold marker did you utilize? Not sure if the Gundam Marker would be able to cover up those pesky nubs well enough.
Big thanks for this video. Keep doing videos.
Hello what kind of gold maker you use to cover nub marks, that a lot of gold maker out there which one you use for this kit
Is there a stand you could recommend for this? I wanna pose him but he just keeps falling over so I’m thinking of getting a stand but one that can hold his weight
Action Base 1 will do fine
@@NhanduArt thanks dude!

How did you deal with the fixing the gold coating after you cut them from the runners and to remove the nubs?
Did you not watch the video?!? He said use a gold gundam marker and paint it. SMH.
EYes

Cee sure thing, happy to help!
and now the PG phenex NT is on the horizon for 52800JPY
I'm going to be $560 in the hole after january
I'm hoping for mgex version of Phenex Narrative.
Im guessing its nub marks are as bad as the original?
What do you think of the new Pband PG phenex narrative, worth it or not?

i dont understand but I feel like they are just dofferent shades of gold
Yes 😁😄😃😀
Great review and comparation.
Subscribed! Easy to understand the difference of those 2. Now i won't buy narrative ver. They look yellow than gold to me.
Shepherd thank you! I’m glad it helped!
I can tell you that in person the Narrative gold is much better. The standard looks more like white gold.
@@marcuskolten5482 but is the narrative ver of mg is same as the hguc phenex gold coating? they look alike tho. The gold coating.
Is this worth to buy 100€?
Can’t you just topcoat it with High gloss
I built the MG unicorn, I don't really like it since compare to my other kits, it's just not good, I really want a 2.0 version of unicorn :/
Yeah, I built the banshee and it was hell, I love the design too much tho, need the 2.0
@@PrimeYsiadGL The only 2.0 I see for now is the MGEX Unicorn. But the price though. So far if you want the size along with articulation, just go for the PG. It's worth it. But recently there's an announcement about PG Phenex Narrative Version. SO who knows.
What are the cons of those two mg unicorn?
@@maku-vi1ic bad design overall I would say, too tall in unicorn mode, and too skinny
@@maku-vi1ic pretty much what he said ^^
P-Bandais are amazing, but my wallet disagrees :(
Oona Bell ikr, even just the regular Bandai >
Great job, subscribed
Thx for your comparison
I would buy it for my girlfriend
Thanks alot man! Let me know how it goes!
nub pain is real
Kekoa_OK yeah this is why bandai needs to release a 2.0 that’s underrated haha
The fingerprint
I am shoced the kit this expensive have so poor articulation.
fingerprint
"fenex" rip
ah yes, $200 for the same shitty mold that sucked when it was new. But it's gold so people will buy regardless >.>
