There's the kosmos led kit for this one, and it looks amazing, cost about as much as the kit, but at least it's better than antyhing bandai is producing led wise
The pain for you to showcase this is worth it in my opinion because it looks immaculate 🙌👍 As a builder who weathers, hand paints and topcoats his kits, I understand the pain of having to fiddle with a kit and what that entails. Great work 👍
Bro I had no clue you had this channel. I've watched your main channel for YEARS and to only just now figure out you have this channel, but by accident no less, is freaking wild. I clicked on this video to see a video on a kit. I did not expect to hear your voice lmao
@@Bionickpunk Yeah, but not all of us like toiling over tiny tiny pieces and parts. Especially when the kit has a lot of detail but it's so small. It makes painting more difficult. Some of the larger RGs are good sizes, like the Hi-Nu or Zeong. (I also realize the kit is based off the actual height of the MS but 144th of that size.)
They didnt actually, they just shifted beyond the 1/100 scale. RGs are basically 1/144 MGs. Now we have MGSDs, and MGEXs are 1/100 MGs with even more features. Full Mechanics are what MGs were years ago.
The line between MG is difficult On EX, you have 1/100 PG On SD, you have slightly weird RG On MG, sometime you can't really tell if its full mechanic line, or is it MG? Especially zaku warrior & ginn Alot of designer was also moved to RG i think, its stupidly detailed for 1/144, even today's MG is lower in FRAME detail nowadays, RG FRAME detail is what MG FRAME was & even more, may even PG level detail
@@Bionickpunk What you just said literally supports OPs statement though. Yeah Rgs are as detailed as MG's are and even better in some cases, but its still 1/144. MGSD's, nice 1/100 scale and good detail, but its SD design. MGEX, basically MG's with a super gimmick, but at 3-4 times the price nearing or equivalent to some PG's. And the gimmicks low key suck. The Unicorn's led's allegedly die quickly and the Strike Freedom's gold plastic was only good if you didnt plan to paint. And if Full mechanics are what MG's were years ago then wtf is a standard MG supposed to be nowadays? MG Rick 1.5? Or the slightly different Rick Dom? And those 2 Rick kits are the only standard MGs released in 2022. There will be 1 standard MG release this year at best, and no I'm not counting the ver ka.
@@RayFChungThere is no standard anything nowadays, all of their model kits are of various quality, even the grade labels and scales are not as clear cut as people expect. Is it frustrating? Absolutely, I dont like inconsistency as well, but thats on Bandai being all over the place and gimmicky with labels and features, some more successful than others. To me the more frustrating thing is that the restock of old kits is pretty slow and now we have even less international sites that sell them (RIP AmiAmi Gunpla selection). Missed out on kits like the MG AGE 1 Normal, and Age kit restocks are every blue moon.
Hey Gundam, i recently found your channel and really enjoy your content. Do you have content, or is there content that you'd recommend for learning how to get started with these models and learning how to paint them? Thanks!
I'm kinda curious , I remember building the Barbatos lupus rex full mechanics and the leg peg broke when I moved the leg forward to attach a part on the rear of the kit. The pegs any better on Ariel or did the gunpla god decide to poop on me that day lol
With you on this. Generally I'm a big fan of gundam, sitting through multiple series of it, but g witch, I was not really feeling it. Honestly wished there was more war and action
You know we are getting an MG of some sort when PBandai is selling overpriced GWitch merch faster than a cat can lick it’s own ass. If it’s anything like IBO we get the MG well after the series finale
It's honestly insane how good your customs look sometimes
I really appreciate your reviews, especially because its from a painters perspective.
I'd imagine an MGEX having magnets for the bits and sequential LEDs for the clear parts
There's the kosmos led kit for this one, and it looks amazing, cost about as much as the kit, but at least it's better than antyhing bandai is producing led wise
Glad to see your still doing good itsagunpla
It looks lovely. Built the HG and liked the design. Much more character than the Aerial Rebuild too.
I appreciate the painting advice since even after building it's hard to know before breakdown unless you really study it.
Cant wait for the build video. I noticed some very delicate shading to highlight some parts. And it looks so clean… a real good job on the paint.
I missed these. Like coming back home to warm apple pie.

Looks really awesome all painted up like that, great job and review!
cool build thanks for the warning about parts rubbing if I ever paint this I'll carefully consider clearance when sanding
The proportions of the face in the full mechanics is so nice and accurate to the line art unlike the high grade. Amazing paint job and video as usual.
Thank you for all the hard work you put into your gunpla. I’m a big fan of your work, and I hope you keep it up!

I really like the design of Aerial.
Yay, a new video! Looks great.
Super appreciate the analysis! Gonna come in clutch I when mess mine up.
Gundam the hero we deserve.
We really need new Master Grade kits. It seems like Real Grade is getting all the attention.
Real Grades are 1/144 Master Grades with a different name for marketing reasons.
Newer MG is locked on P bandai if that any consolation for you
Bandai new lines are kinda dumb nowadays, all their older stuff is stupid hard to get

@@fujitafunk Never had issues with tiny fiddly parts cause I grew up with Lego.
great video, very interesting color grading and editing, that focus chasing over head shot was interesting as well. thanks.
Thanks for the info on the scratching, the sacrifice will not be forgotten
Good to see you saint! Watch out for all spots where bit armor keys in those areas scratch as well.
Great paint job
Nice looking, keep up the good work.
The timing on this :O. I just got mine in yesterday lol.
thanks for the wake up video. your kits are the shiznit.
I really do hope for an MG or PG Aerial. Your build of the FM kit looks fantastic.
the beam effect is painted VERY well
Thanks for the review!
lets hope that a 3rd party makes clear part replacement for the glowing parts for those that enjoy modding their kits
Nice piece of work
You're doin great things
great work as always boss
could you do a short video showing how you keep/display your kits? it seems you have a lot of them.
These videos make me want to get into Gunpla, but I don't have the time. Hopefully in the future but until then I'll make due with these videos.
not bad for an oversize HG Arieal
Commenting Cuz I need more content from gundam
Yay a voice over review!
Body looks like samus, really cool
Yeess! Love your work!
I've been waiting for this
Damn your Areal looks good. Keep it up
Looks amazing. Shame Bandai has given up on Master Grade

Nice job. I am curious about your thoughts on G-witch though.
Thank you, papa Gundam.
would love to see you have a go at some custom scribing and stuff
Gundam you’re fucken hilarious I love your stuff. I started building gunpla and yeah so far I fucken love it
Mercury is alright, but that Gundam looks real nice.

Will you take a look at the MG Zeta?
dude. The paint rubbing is such a pain man. Investing months, so around 200-400 hours on a project then having paint rub almost breaks me lol
I’m on the fence about whether or not I’ll buy this or if I should wait for an MG version.
So are we enjoying Gundam Witch From Mercury? Keep it or sneed it?
Hey gunpla! where’d you get those hands in your build? Looking for some replacement hands for mine cause i find them to be a bit disappointing
While I'm not on board for the Witch from Mercury, I do like Aerial's design.
With you on this. Generally I'm a big fan of gundam, sitting through multiple series of it, but g witch, I was not really feeling it. Honestly wished there was more war and action
did you use the included decals? I saw some waterslide ones on aliexpress but idk if they are any good
Nice
Very nice
Great video
Very nice!
It's a Pseudo-MG
How many kits does this man have?
Why do I not get notifications for your channel? RUclips sucks at time.
Can you flip the hip joints to slim out the hips like the hg?
🔥🔥🔥🔥
69k subs
Nice
This kit sounds like it needs a full MG or 2.0 in the future based on all the problems it has
Gundam Hanger update video? :)
I never seen this rantless side of you before, I’m scared
👾👾👾👾
Rubbing @55 takes a lot of work.
🤘
Comment
Man... something about the model just doesn't look as cool as Aerial does in the anime. I dunno what it is?
The proportions are slightly altered. The torso is less wide.
You know we are getting an MG of some sort when PBandai is selling overpriced GWitch merch faster
than a cat can lick it’s own ass.
If it’s anything like IBO we get the MG well after the series finale
:d
eri
Is this a 1/144 or a 1/100 scale? Looks good!
