This Astray No Name kit is just so disappointing , where's the beam saber on the left hand ? , they change its color to brown wine ? , the backpack is so rubbish , and finally the articulation of this kit. I hope Bandai spend more time to make this gundam , what about turn this kit into an RG grade ?

@Zetagundamastley12196 жыл бұрын
The HG Astray from 2013 honestly doesn’t need a revive. It’s still up to par to modern kits even to this day. But wow, articulation on the No Name is just disappointing(It doesn't really bother me since I never put my models in super crazy action poses). Gonna get it anyways.

Zetagundamastley1219 yup. I can accept the leg. Which to me is quite good. But the arm.. What year is this...
@xSkye629x6 жыл бұрын
90 is perfectly serviceable. How often do you pose your kits with the arm bent 180 with hands against the shoulder? Definitely less than 10% (being generous). I got over 50 kits on display, and none pose like that because either: 1. The arm is mostly straight/slightly bent for the standing there and looking cool pose 2. Outstretched as most cool action poses requires. If the MS is reliant on 2 handed weapon poses then I find the most critical aspects are whether the shoulder can move out enough to support such a pose, and wrist articulation/angle

I agree that the Astray needed a revive before this came along. I could argue they should have done that for the Alex as well so they had a better base for the Tristan. Can you imagine a perfect world where that happened? I can, and I want it.

The thing is the original kit this was based on was a Revive before the Revive line existed. It was a brand new mold and was essentially a perfect HG kit of the Astray with a lot of detail, amazing poseability, and an insane amount of accessories. It's only falling grace was the stickers, and that's partially due to the insane colors of the Astray that can't be replicated in HG form. This kit was just a letdown and did not do that original mold justice, it's a waste of potential.

This is my first gundam and after a few days I've finished building it. I feel like it's very flimsy like some parts will fall off if I mess with it even a little. The Cape especially it'll just fall off its arm if i try to move it's arm. I haven't tried it's other modes but once I get a stand I'll try to make the big gun thing. (Sorry I've never watched gundam b4). Maybe I'm doing something wrong but still it looks very cool imo. Very very fun aswell.

Would you think it possible to create two symmetrical kits with modification or are they just too different? I guess I'll just wait for Bandai to finally release the Lord kit... Hopefully! Great video btw!
