I'd recommend learning to read Japanese katakana. It's relatively simple, especially since you're Korean. That will allow you to be able to read the runner labels and you'd see that those extra parts are from the Gundam 2.0 kit.
I know it's been 6 months since this video review was uploaded, but those 90mm Bullpup magazines can be stored behind the shield, on the pegs just right above the kick stand bipod of the shield.
at 9:09 you mentioned that someone asked you if its based on an RX 78 frame, I'm sure you know some kits re-use runners. Powered GM actually used some parts from RX 78 Ver. Ka and RX 78 2.0
I believe that for a partial Conversion for the side guards of the GM type C has a similar Bullpup style Rifle and part to change the barrel nozzle into the larger looking assault rifle. but the side guards have sits to carry the beam gun on either side, so by doing a mild mod on a gun or 2 it can be made to look like the K9 type version. ZakuAurelius might have the GM type C to vouch for the types compatibility side guards wise
I'm still waiting for mine to come in, hopedully Bandai makes a Jegan or Stark Jegan in MG, that would be awesome!!! Can't wait to build this guy, when it finally comes in 😆
It look like the rx 78 2.0 inner frame because All of the joints and pistons are the same as my MG amazing red warrior. But nice review since you're the only one that pumped out new kits faster than anyone. Now I can sleep peacefully and get my wallet ready.
Here's a fun drinking game: take a shot of tequila every time you hear the word "basically". Bottoms up! But seriously, this kit is amazing! To have such range of motion in the arms to pull off a sniper pose, that is excellent!
You might want to ease up on the use of this adverb a bit. Now I understand it's not always easy to be super "vocabulous" as you film whilst reviewing your gunpla but I've noticed a lot of your videos are chuck full of repeated words. Try watching older videos you posted and you'll see what I mean and watch other reviewers like yourself and listen to the different phrasings they use to say the same thing over without sounding too repetitive. This will help you a lot.
KShatriya 44 The guy's working with what he has at his disposal and english is not his native language. That takes balls. So the video quality isn't great. Learn as you go. He posted a video after this and actually followed the constructive criticism he got. So cut the guy some slack or make your own reviews on gunpla!
If you actually read what the runner says, you will see that most of the inner frames are RX-78-2 Ver.2.0. some other runners are also generic like the bullpup machine gun you were talking about. So we might be able to expect Bandai to include those in other kits. Or sold as add-ons
It's very similar to the Gundam 2.0, but there are some modifications in the types of parts used. In terms of actual _engineering_ however it's about 90% identical.
as for the K9 unit someone would have to take the 144 scale and do a reproduction of each part slightly larger and use some spare polycap parts to give it the moving joints, as for the powered folding Sniper Rifle that too could be scratch built or mode from perhaps some weapon pack that is out there like the frame arms type weapon kits as an example, same as adding the shoulder Blade part holstered on his right shoulder, and an easy repaint of his visor to simulate the Exam system. or am I mistaken? please shout out on this if you like the idea for it rather than a P-Bandai exclusive version of it
Well I guess it's all about personal preference, but you have to admit the double Uzi's that the K9 has plus the K9 unit itself with the folding Rifle definitely gives it a bit more tactical advantage rather than being a solo unit (but that's just my preference) thanks for the shout out glad to see a Reply from such a popular reviewer
Honestly it's not _that_ new engineering. While it's definitely got improvements, about 85% of it is carried over from the 2.0 Gundam. Not saying it's a bad thing, i'm all for re-using parts if it doesn't detriment the kit, but calling it "new engineering" just isn't right.
I understand where you're coming from. Sometimes getting a new kit can just feel exciting, but as a fellow reviewer I personally aim to bring a more complete and true understanding of the kit and information about it. Checking which parts have been reused and doing research on those kits as well, while comparing them to mine. I don't try to exaggerate nor under-exaggerate anything because I want to bring a correct and true opinion to the viewer.
Out of my three MGs; Musha, Nu Ver KA & Buster, the Musha's hands are the most annoying because they're articulate. He *is* made out of the RX-78 1.5 kit which is just the original 1995 kit with improved parts so i guess i shouldn't complain too much. And then the RX-78 2.0 came out a month after him...... ffffffffffffffuuuuuuuuuuuuuu...!!!
Charlie426 boss charlie, you do realize that the MG char's rick dom was a recolor of the 90's(june 1999) released MG dom. That's pure utter bias, plus i love the MG dom, i just paid 60 bucks for a char one. I recommend getting a rx 78-2 origin or a average zaku 2.0 and re-evaluate your stand against articulate hands being shitty. Im not saying i hate fixed posed hands(i recently got freedom 2.0 who also relies on the same fixed hand style)
Charlie426 known about the gelgoog. I recently built my gelgoog 2.0 (14-A)and he holds the weapons pretty good. I also bought the char's gelgoog 2.0 for custom reasons, plus you recommended it to me before. Now, the reason we're seeing less of the nicely articulate hands is cuz their usually given to those sure-sell UC big boys (rx 78, nu, sazabi, sinanju, qnd etc...) engineering those compact articulate hands into every new kit isnt cost-effective(you know bandai) the reason dom got articulate hands was cuz he has huge ass hands. Compare ur gelgoogs hands to ur gm sniper 2. Im pretty sure gelgoog hands are atleast 1.3x bigger than the gm snipers. But in all fairness the GM sniper mk 2 did great, no complaints in it design(took some cues from zaku wih the shoulders, rx 78 origin with the feet) . Its just that articulate hands are not crap, either you need sticky tack or u got bad pegs for the weapons.
I understand boss... I rly love my MG zeon kits hahaha . If you have a MG char's zaku. Maybe you got one from a bad batch cuz i got a couple of guys appraoch me before looking to buy my bootleg zakus hands to replace their bandai zaku's hands. Bandai has its moments when the shit on ur face, but its rare. As for the trolls, ignore em.
review so fast. highly appreciated. now i 'm going to get this MG for sure.

The kit uses from both 2.0 RX78-2 and The gundam Age Inner frame
i got mine from hobbylinkjappan. waiting or the delivery . sooo pumped to build this kit. GREAT REVIEW MAN

Oh. Let this be a lesson to others to watch the whole video first before commenting then.
at 9:09 you mentioned that someone asked you if its based on an RX 78 frame, I'm sure you know some kits re-use runners. Powered GM actually used some parts from RX 78 Ver. Ka and RX 78 2.0
that is fine :) I just thought of sharing information that might help others

Just so you know. The extra weapon clips attach to the bottom of the shield at the top of the stand. The tabs go into the slits on the clips.
Dude thank you for this review its the only one in dubbed loool great review 👍
I'm still waiting for mine to come in, hopedully Bandai makes a Jegan or Stark Jegan in MG, that would be awesome!!! Can't wait to build this guy, when it finally comes in 😆
How did you get it early

Can you explain for me what does
the word ""Grunt suit"" mean?
Thank so much Charlie
is the inner frame new or GM2.0?
the H plate is a reprint from the MG Gundam 2.0 and the round parts on the MP plate is from the MG Gundam Age 1,2
It's very similar to the Gundam 2.0, but there are some modifications in the types of parts used. In terms of actual _engineering_ however it's about 90% identical.
I WANT ONE!!!
Also the MG GM Sniper should be reprinted along with the HG 08th MS Team,...
The shield can hold the 2 extra machine gun clips
as for the K9 unit someone would have to take the 144 scale and do a reproduction of each part slightly larger and use some spare polycap parts to give it the moving joints, as for the powered folding Sniper Rifle that too could be scratch built or mode from perhaps some weapon pack that is out there like the frame arms type weapon kits as an example, same as adding the shoulder Blade part holstered on his right shoulder, and an easy repaint of his visor to simulate the Exam system. or am I mistaken? please shout out on this if you like the idea for it rather than a P-Bandai exclusive version of it

My Gahd!!! I NEED THIIIISSSS!!!!

tbh they should have included the articulated fingers for variety
i like your review but i hope u makes unboxing video to... huhuhu
after watching ur review im glad i already preorder it
We are number one but every one is replaced with "to be honest/in my opinion"
Out of my three MGs; Musha, Nu Ver KA & Buster, the Musha's hands are the most annoying because they're articulate.
He *is* made out of the RX-78 1.5 kit which is just the original 1995 kit with improved parts so i guess i shouldn't complain too much. And then the RX-78 2.0 came out a month after him...... ffffffffffffffuuuuuuuuuuuuuu...!!!
As much as I want this, those colors will have to go. Makes the kit looks like a toy.
Gus Mendez you can go for the P-Bandai Dingo GM Sniper II then... just black & white color
Gus Mendez That's convenient, since it's a toy.
It's harder to hold weapons with those stupid interchangable fingers than the fully articulated ones.
Charlie426 boss charlie, you do realize that the MG char's rick dom was a recolor of the 90's(june 1999) released MG dom.
That's pure utter bias, plus i love the MG dom, i just paid 60 bucks for a char one.

Maybe your pegs worn off? My MGs that have the articulated hands with pegs for weapons hold them really well.
I understand boss... I rly love my MG zeon kits hahaha . If you have a MG char's zaku. Maybe you got one from a bad batch cuz i got a couple of guys appraoch me before looking to buy my bootleg zakus hands to replace their bandai zaku's hands. Bandai has its moments when the shit on ur face, but its rare. As for the trolls, ignore em.
What, it doesn't have 360?! This kit sucks!!
*Ding dong*
Hmm, who can that be?
