Always loved that kit for the exact same reason. It's a good starting point for people who want to learn how to add electronics to their Gunpla. The "helmet" an become a natural door to access the battery holder inside.I even wired the hands on mine so the holes in the center become cutting lasers.

It's so nice to read the comments again, thank you! As you say, I think this kit is one of the best kits for incorporating LEDs. My goal is to incorporate all the necessary electronic equipment into a limited space, so I'm particular about using internal power sources. I believe that illumination is an expressive technique that brings life to the model. I would like to create more illumination works.

@@ImaginaryDock You're definitely right. I've found that another great one is the Nu Gundam. You can easily turn the cockpit section into a battery compartment door and light up the eyes and sensor on the shoulder. Or turn one of the backpack boosters into the battery compartment.

That's a great idea! It's nice to be able to add the fun of opening and closing the cockpit hatch!

@@ImaginaryDock I'm glad you also see the opportunity in that. I really love that you also factor in how easy it will be for you later to maintain your collection items, with easy to reach battery holders, switches and other ease-of-use features.

Thank you for your comments, they make me feel so happy! I think the process of turning your image into reality is a very exciting experience. But some people say they don't know how to do it. Others say they're afraid of failure. I can understand both of those feelings very well. I would be happy if my videos can help give those people the push they need.

very nice work! i especially loved the green lense detail in the gn drive, i will try to copy it if i get to make a 00 model <3

Thank you very much for your very nice comment! I hope you too enjoy this wonderful modeling experience. I personally like the details of the GN Drive. When you actually look at it, the outside light shines slightly green inside the hole, making it very beautiful.

This work is exceptional! I can see why you had not uploaded videos for quite some time as you wanted this to be a surprise! Thank you and my son thanks you as well!

I'm really happy that you and your son are happy. It was a fun surprise for me too!
I have this kit - it's amazing how you squeezed so much into it! You really excel on these small anime ships - please do more ☺

Thank you for your comment! Before building it, I thought the space inside the ship would be spacious, but when I actually built it, I realized that it was very small and I had a hard time. Still, when it was completed, I was captivated by how its many windows and engine shone more beautifully than it had ever been created.✨

@@ImaginaryDock Once again, a great job. Yes, those windows are tricky - I am surprised no-one sells drilling templates! I've just been looking at the 1/400 Musai (very expensive to import to the UK) - just imagine what you could do with that!! ☺

A truly excellent video - some great techniques used and a brilliant final model (so good I've just bought one (3500 yen in the UK - ouch!). I have subscribed and am off to check out your other videos! If you can find one, how about using your super detailing skills on an Imai P1 submarine (Marine Boy) or, failing that, an Aura Ship Zalerna?

Thank you for your nice comments! And thank you for subscribing to the channel! I'm also making other spaceships, so I'd be happy if you could take a look at them. I think it's really fun to incorporate lights into a small hull. I'm surprised that Zanzibar is such an expensive kit in the UK. When I looked into the P1 Marine Boy kit you mentioned, it seems to cost between 50 and 150 GBP! IMAI's kits were my dream when I was little, but they have disappeared from stores, and if I wanted to get one, I would have to pay a high price at auction. . . I also learned about Aura Ship Zalerna for the first time! She looks so cool! This kit is one that I would love to make! thank you for teaching me!

@@ImaginaryDock Thank you for your reply - I have just watched your Masui build which is another triumph! Yes, most Japanese anime kits (apart from some Gundams which are mass imported) are super expensive in the UK compared to Japan. This is a shame when the kit is cheap and toy like (with missiles and wheels) which is why your builds are so great - they show what is possible!
It was so great to see you again! And THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU for the gift! It is an honor for me to own one of your pieces! I will see you next year! Until then, I am looking forward to seeing what your next project will be. Thank you again!
