I started watching your channel recently, and you have no idea how much money you’ve caused me to spend through your backlog of videos 😂 keep them coming!
I got into gunpla and gundam as a whole in 2024 around in august and I am ADDICTED. This channel is a big factor in why I got into it in the first place. Hope to stay for many years to come
You know what hurts, before the release of the RG akatsuki I thought it would be in the top 3 on this list but knowing the knowledge I now know it hurts not seeing it here 😭
Right now no it hasn’t come yet to my local gunpla store but from what I’ve seen in multiple reviews I’m reconsidering canceling both the rg akatsuki and the pbandai set but idk
I was so curious to see if modern undergating would solve the classic Fenix problem of nub marks you physically can't clean without making it worse. Why undercut it with a trash inner frame? It's the Doom 3 shotgun of modern RGs. Not only did it suck, but I _know_ they can do better.
@@alexmerino9143 As someone who has built 2 RG Akatsukis, if you just use matte topcoat on the B runner, it holds up extremely well. I have had no problems with either of them and it has been a month.
Realizing that the granddaddy mk 2 is botched because the Vulcans don’t fully protrude feels like Vegapunk thinking he failed because his dragon fruit was pink and not blue.
You know this being a slow year for Gunpla releases really made the RG Grandpa 2.0 that much better. I wasn't looking forward to it, then the pro-order came closer, and closer and I needed it. The kit just looked for much better than what they had planned for future releases by a long shot (personal opinion lol). I wish they'd re release some Build Fight/ Dive kits, or do some wacky G Gundam kits that would never be kits to begin with lol.
I started this hobby around this time last year, your videos being a fuel to the flame of my plastic addiction lol. Ready to see more for the upcoming year!
MG Narrative is solo carrying 2024 for me. It is the only kit I purchased released in 2024. Because of the lack of MG releases, I have been hooked to TCGs.
Really disappointed that the RG Gundam 2.0 didn’t get the 1st place and was met with unnecessarily repetitive criticism on the issue of its head. That issue isn’t very noticeable at all. Mecha seems to have over-magnified this problem. I think a lot of people will agree that the RG grandpa 2.0 is the best kit of the year. I always knew that the MG Narrative VerKa would end up in the top 2 (see the thumbnails of the best gunpla lines videos) but that MG’s arm doesn’t hold up very well and is undoubtedly a more noticeable flaw. I also don’t like the repeated statement that 2024 was a weak year for gunpla. The review videos gave the exact opposite impression. For a long streak, every kit that came out got the verdict of either Platinum or Gundarium tier until the December RG. Also, I liked the annual top 10 videos so much that I rewatched each of them many times. Now I am not sure how I feel about this year’s top 10 because I don’t want to be constantly reminded of that 2024 was rough. It was not. 2024 was an amazing year for gunpla.
i been waiting for this. this is the year i got into gunpla so excited to see what my first year has had to offer. 20 kits deep now and ive done everything but sd and perfect grade. experienced the highs and lows od real grade, discovered the gunpla black hole and spent a whole lot of time and money. a great hobby and community to be a part of (ps my first ever video on the hobby was actually your pg unicorn vid a few years back)
For most unique kit, the entry grade anniversary RX78-2 was robbed lol! Its such a cool fun idea and history lesson. Plus its such a good companion kit to the Real grade 2.0
I'm really happy to see the narrative Ver. Ka in first! honestly it was may fav kit i built in 2024 and that is saying a lot considering i built 2 PGs with LEDs. still need the new stein and a phenex to complete the trio.
I first touched Master Grade early into my building hobby with the Narrative Ver.Ka. It might have been a mistake, but for how much of a masterpiece it is and how enjoyable the build was, I think it was still a good choice. Much of how delightful this kit turned out came from advice and insight from your review and prior tutorial videos, so thank you very much for helping me delve into this plastic crack addiction, MG!
Your channel make my head spinning in my ball joint to acquire new gunpla to build 😂 It always fun to watch your review, you hv such a good way to entertain your audience. Thank you!
glad I bought the narrative MG ver ka. It’s like the staples of MG line and technology. rock solid, lot of customization, and interchangeable psycho frame. I wanna buy PG for the next kit
For the purple bits on the Cal-Re. A, what I ended up doing is using Vallejo's Air silver with a HEAVY dose of Citadel's Leviathan Purple until I nearly perfected the sticker color.
😅not gonna lie been waiting for this video!! New to the gundam kits and have spent a crazy amount in a verrry short amount of time but 😅I love it I got the gunpla itch😂
My top 5 this year were 5: RG Blast Impulse Spec II 4: HGCE Dagger L 3: HGCE Destiny 2: MG Dynames 1: HGUC Byarlant I absolutely love the Byarlant so it finally getting some reprints or something to make it more available was a godsend lol, but first build of 2025 is gonna be the MG Ver. Ka Sinanju Stein NT
I am trying so hard to get destiny + zeus rofl I want that gun damnit Oh and the reason the gundam EX ended up so detailed was because how easy it was to transfer it. They were pretty up front on just using the files as their basis and that's why the inside is so 'inner frame' as well.
I don’t have a top 10, but the Narrative was absolutely my #1 last year. I loved it so much that I’d even buy a P-Bandai version that just swapped the pink psychoframe to blue.
Yes! I kind of need reviews of those even more than bandai kits, since we know that bandais is probably going to be at least decent plastic and engineering wise. 3rd party its a lot more hit and miss
My top 10 Builds of the Year: 1. IBO HG Gundam Barbatos (My first new gunpla in 10 years, reigniting my love of the hobby) 2. TWFM HG Gundam Calibarn (Just a fun, solid, beautiful looking kit) 3. RG Tallgeese EW (My first RG build and very nostalgic) 4. IBO HG Gundam Flauros (Shino fan bias aside, it's just so much fun to pose) 5. IBO HG Barbatos Lupus Rex (Weak waist aside, this kit looks so freaking cool) 6. RX 124 Gundam TR 6 Hazel [II] (Love the look, enjoyed building, but expensive too buy and ship) 7. TWFM HG Michaelis (Unique look, fun build, but it fell off my shelf more than any other kit) 8. TWFM HG Gundam Aerial (Great, but I built the Calibarn first) 9. IBO HG Land Man Rodi (Unique, but awkward to pose) 10. IBO HG Gusion Rebake Fullcity (so cool, so wobbly, so many stickers)
I'm quite new to the hobby, but very excited to be exploring it, and your videos have been a big part of that. Thanks for the thorough work in overviewing all of these kits!
They really should have used the advanced ms joint, of course not on everything but it should for sure be there, really since it’s the main thing of the rg line
you should consider doing this a bit before christmas because i was looking for this vid a but ago to find what i want for christmas but it wasnt out yettttt
Alright fine! I will order my first Ver Ka kit... Fine! You twisted my arm, pulled my card out of my wallet, held me at beam rifle point. FINE!... No it wasn't already in my cart, no I wasn't thinking about buying it since I saw the review video! I'm not irresponsible with my money, now leave me alone! but also, I'd love to see mentions of what pre-orders or maybe kit you want to see most for next year after seeing what you thought was best this year.
It's really a shame that Bandai didn't do much with G Gundam last year outside of the HG Dragon Gundam (Which is P-Bandai mind you) considering that it's the 30th anniversary of the anime. 2024 was flooded with SEED Freedom kits while G only got 1 P-Bandai kit. This year is for Wing, though Bandai is celebrating GWX 30th anniversary altogether so I'm hoping to see some new releases from each. We know RG Shining is coming out soon and I'm hoping for either a RG Wing Zero TV or a RG GX (though GX could be next year since 2026 is the 30th anniversary for Gundam X)
I was laughing 🤣🤣🤣 not the reason you put, but the way you put it. God, you hate stickers to infinity don't you.😆🤣🤣 Bookmark.🤣🤣🤣🤣 Please don't tell the both justice have the same issue? I'll have to look back at the video. It's probably hard to even think of another way that they could have messed up the amazing barbatos lupus, right. It's anything but Amazing. Amazing piece of (blank).
Bandai may have slacked, especially with MGs, but that's why I switched over to Infinity Nova. They were the same ones who did the Zero Gravity Judge, IIRC. This year, though? LIZARD. Sazabi? Heavyarms? Why not both? Even some unfortunate nub marks on painted plastic couldn't keep it down. My kit of the year, no contest.
If you're disappointed with the Bandai showing this year remember to vote with your wallet and support third party companies. There were some INCREDIBLE kits this year, just not Bandai. The Lizard, the Solomon Physalis, PG Tallgeese, tons of SNAA kits. The list goes on. It was a great year for gunpla as long as you free yourself from the shackles of Bandai.
my top 10 are older kits #1 Endless Waltz - Wing Gundam Zero (EW) Ver.K and or any wing kits in the era #2 gm sniper MG #3 mg any 00 season 1 kits #4 mg full armor gundam thunderbolt ver ka and Psycho Zaku #5 mg unicorn ver ka #6 gouf custom mg #7 char zaku 2 #8 rx78-2 3.0 mg #9 ground type gundam or gm and ez 8 #10 astray red frame mg
Yes but Technically no, it IS an entirely new mold, but the old InJ has already have a predecessor of the seed-action frame so it's not that entirely new, they might using the same parts here and there but bandai take them and place it with a new part in a new runner. So basically old part, but new runner
I was mentally prepared for RG Akatsuki to be placed as "The worst Gunpla kit this year". No matter how much I cope, the truth is that Akatsuki was a huge disappointment for everyone is still there. So it is a surprise that Amazing Barbie took that place. Also RG fans, we get the second place and it is deserved. MG Narrative is just objectively better than RG granddaddy
Im surprised RG RX78-2 ver 2.0 isnt number 1, because damn is it an amazing gunpla, the only gunpla where buying 2 for the inner frame alone is completely understandable
The thing is, that kit isn't anything new. It's a rework of the perfect grade unleashed rx-78-2 in many respects. They took everything they learned on it and just condensed the technology to make the real grade version. Narrative was something entirely new and done exceptionally well.
You keep on calling RG 2.0 a botch, and I just cant agree. The head issue is negligible at best, and a tiny flaw that honestly flows well with the general design at worst
Totally agree. Vulcans absolutely had issues initially, but calling it a dud is insane. It’s the greatest RG of all time. Even if the Vulcan issue was never fixed.
He's mentioned several times that it was apparently the first batch of the kit. It wasn't even that big of a problem, the head just didn't fit perfectly, but when you're making a "best of" video. You kinda have to nit pick to rate everything.
Thanks so much everyone for making this possible once again in 2024! This is my 11th year making a best kits of the year video and it wouldn't be possible without you guys!

We support you been followinh your videos since 2016 and that what got me into gunpla , it all started with that barbatos lupus hg review❤❤❤❤❤
Anyone remember when we got "best master grades of 20xx" videos? Can't even make a top 5 list anymore 😢. Thanks Bandai
At least we have the MG Vidar coming in a few months
Well, maybe we still could if P-Bandai counted (most of those were reissued or recolor anyway😅)
glad I bought the narrative MG ver ka. It’s like the staples of MG line and technology. rock solid, lot of customization, and interchangeable psycho frame. I wanna buy PG for the next kit

Hopefully Bandai will release an updated RG Zaku to accompany that RG 78-2
mostly all of my 2024s' kit haven't build yet. but can't wait to build all of it this year also can't wait for all of 2025 kits to buy as well.
Yesssss Narrative Gundam is awesome and deserve this 1st spot😊🎉❤
Next year should also be the release of the urdr hunt movie. I'm PRAYING for hg 2.0 IBO frames or real grades
3:25 panel lining only the front is fine, but sticking the camera sticker on only the front gun? That's crazy lol
Glad Destroy Gundam on the list, as if a very long awaited gunpla come around
Overall, 2024 was a 7/10 for me, that Gunpla were great enough.
Nobody can get sick of grand daddy rx78 he's our icon ❤
I have even more kits to add into the shopping list now
Please do a review of the B-Packs for the Narrative Gundam. Mine just came in and I cannot wait to build it and attach it to my Narrative Gundam.
Once again highly recommending the HG Amazing Strike Freedom. Really want to see you review it.
💀 he already did the review of ASF in the past silly
@myhonestopinion3334 why can't I find it when I search?
I'm quite new to the hobby, but very excited to be exploring it, and your videos have been a big part of that. Thanks for the thorough work in overviewing all of these kits!
I'm still hoping the Shining Gundam can start redeeming the RG line when it releases. God Gundam was awesome, so... 🥺.
They really should have used the advanced ms joint, of course not on everything but it should for sure be there, really since it’s the main thing of the rg line
you should consider doing this a bit before christmas because i was looking for this vid a but ago to find what i want for christmas but it wasnt out yettttt

IT IS HERE
Cope sesh might not be entirely wrong. Next years line up's not looking bad.
Yeah ay least we know we’re getting at least 1 MG and plenty of newly engineered and designed kits with the new show. Good start
I really wish the MGSD Wing Zero would've been at least on number 2. Specially based on how, unlike the other kits on the list, has no flaws.
43:31 is the face not panel lined?
MG Narrative Gundam Ver Ka...so nice...I bought it twice.....and maybe a third cause of that damn B Packs expansion >.>
been waiting for this
9:19 I feel your pain lol. Were this 2013-2018 this would be tolerable. But 2024?
"Someone spilled some Digimon in my Gundam". I want me my Figure Rise Flamedramon 🙏
22:58 MGSD Wing Gundam Zero Does NOT come with a stand. My only gripe on an otherwise perfect kit.
Alright fine! I will order my first Ver Ka kit... Fine! You twisted my arm, pulled my card out of my wallet, held me at beam rifle point. FINE!... No it wasn't already in my cart, no I wasn't thinking about buying it since I saw the review video! I'm not irresponsible with my money, now leave me alone! but also, I'd love to see mentions of what pre-orders or maybe kit you want to see most for next year after seeing what you thought was best this year.

I’m gonna beat it this
Wait what’s wrong with the RG RX-78-2 V2? Edit: nvm, but what’s the “botched RG” that pointed at RX?
Nothing.
I think the first batch had a head parts fitting issue which he has mentioned was since fixed. That's what he said at least.
first batch had a small issue with the vulcans that was then fixed very quickly and the kit is basically flawless now
Bandai may have slacked, especially with MGs, but that's why I switched over to Infinity Nova. They were the same ones who did the Zero Gravity Judge, IIRC.
This year, though? LIZARD. Sazabi? Heavyarms? Why not both? Even some unfortunate nub marks on painted plastic couldn't keep it down. My kit of the year, no contest.
Oh yeah I did buy the narrative ver ka lol.
Same here buddy got me watching them seen your videos bet I have spent I bet 1000 dollars in a month I have hg strike freedom the RG freedom
If you're disappointed with the Bandai showing this year remember to vote with your wallet and support third party companies. There were some INCREDIBLE kits this year, just not Bandai. The Lizard, the Solomon Physalis, PG Tallgeese, tons of SNAA kits. The list goes on. It was a great year for gunpla as long as you free yourself from the shackles of Bandai.
I can't wait for MG vidar
I’m buying two. One to paint and one to leave as is. It’s my all time favorite design.
hello do we still have best mg 2024 series?xd
RG just got dethroned. Makes you wonder what they're cooking up for next year.
I respectfully disagree with #7. 🤣 It should've been Infinite Justice Spec II.
my top 10 are older kits
#1 Endless Waltz - Wing Gundam Zero (EW) Ver.K and or any wing kits in the era
#2 gm sniper MG
#3 mg any 00 season 1 kits
#4 mg full armor gundam thunderbolt ver ka and Psycho Zaku
#5 mg unicorn ver ka
#6 gouf custom mg
#7 char zaku 2
#8 rx78-2 3.0 mg
#9 ground type gundam or gm and ez 8
#10 astray red frame mg
What a snooze fest of a year for 1/100 Bandai kits. @mecha you should do a top 10 third party kit list
I just can’t take these lists seriously anymore man
I'm new to the hobby. May I ask why?
i like having a top ten list to refer to, but if you don't buy gunpla based solely on aesthetics/weaponry something is wrong with you.
yes c'ant wait for 2025 Edit: why no the timestamps ?
Finally it’s out!!!!
I have so few of these 😢
This reminded me of the Chinese companies __wink wink__ that announced SDMG Prelude of Snow conversion parts
2025 is the year i get meself a destroy gundam mark my words.
IJ Type II "Rehash"??? Had to double take there but huh??? It's essentially an entirely new kit??
Yes but Technically no, it IS an entirely new mold, but the old InJ has already have a predecessor of the seed-action frame so it's not that entirely new, they might using the same parts here and there but bandai take them and place it with a new part in a new runner.

I hope you will inspire and help people in making their own gunpla. You've inspired me to create alot of gunpla and I thank you for helping m
3 and 4 should be switch, it has a lot of negative comment than the 4
sucks ALL of these are out of stock on HLJ...
Yes I made it
oh yeaaaah
what stands do you use for funnel bits, like for the cal re a?
I yhink those are the witch from mercury stands. You can find them at most places that sell those kits
Im surprised RG RX78-2 ver 2.0 isnt number 1, because damn is it an amazing gunpla, the only gunpla where buying 2 for the inner frame alone is completely understandable

yay now i know what kits too get for my backlog. (i had nothing in my backlog for the past few weeks)
did i get this notification two minutes late...NOOOOOOOOO
Might as well wrap plamo within, as the 30 mm fantasy are amazing
You keep on calling RG 2.0 a botch, and I just cant agree. The head issue is negligible at best, and a tiny flaw that honestly flows well with the general design at worst
You are really overstating the problem with the RX-78-2 2.0
He does it with every kit... he gets verbal diarrhoea and just vomits the same thing over and over again
Totally agree. Vulcans absolutely had issues initially, but calling it a dud is insane. It’s the greatest RG of all time. Even if the Vulcan issue was never fixed.
Is the RG RX-78 2.0 really a dud, just for that 1st batch?
