1/144 HGUC Jegan D type Review

[@Mecha82]

Stark Jegan has special place in my heart thanks to that brave pilot in Gundam Unicorn Episode 1 but Jegan D Type not so much.

[@kakarot197]

Still remember seeing that fight in the preview. I re-watched it *so* many times. Totally deserves an MG. It's unfortunately true that the D type didn't really do a lot...of anything really... They did some neat dodges in that fight against the Kshatriya but I guess that's about it.

[@ARCcommand]

+Mecha82 I actually recorded that fight, so i could re-watch it more easily. I'm glad i did, because the video was removed by the publisher half a day later >_

[@thornestark4521]

You guys like the stark jegan my jegan lol

[@Arrowdodger]

Initial Deployment? Initial D? *turns on badass eurobeat music and races* "Running in the 90s!"

[@hasefharris357]

Running in the 90s

[@hyperiongm330]

It shoulda been the Jegan A2 (GR) that was the online exclusive (because it has an 8 shot missile shield, and only appeared in two episodes and even then only for about a minute or so between the two).

[@LechkuTheFabulous]

The storag panel can also store whichever visor isn't in use, as it was designed for the ECOAS.

[@VSigma725]

It's too bad we will never get a kit of the Jegan A2 (General Revil). The GR units have such an interesting color scheme. And what about the F91 Jegans? Sure they really sucked but the Jegan M and Jegan R are neat variants.

[@WatcherMovie008]

I see no reason to buy the Type D (especially since its a web exclusive). I might as well buy the Stark Jegan, and the ECOAS Jegan, and mash them together. Probably the poorest and laziest exclusive from Bandai. If they could make the Nemo in Zeta and UC ver., why couldn't they do the same with this?

[@OtonashiV]

No, all you need is the Ecoas because it's literally just a recolored Ecoas Jegan. Well, maybe for the clear blue visor. But the normal Jegan is cheaper.

[@kakarot197]

Otonashi You can't make it completely accurate unless you buy this set because the head has 1 unique piece that no other model kit has (6:00) =/

[@OtonashiV]

Eh, those details aren't really noticeable.They weren't even animated.

[@WatcherMovie008]

I want to buy the Stark and ECOAS so I could give the Jegan the Stark's skirt armor, the face plate, with the ECOAS head piece, have the ECOAS backpack, and give it the Stark's armor parts (might have to custom the shoulder). Although I am debating whether to have the normal, Stark, or ECOAS' chest.

[@rx-0unicorngundam776]

I bet it takes at least 8 more months for Bandai to release the ID Type as a kit. What do you think?

[@sportsrook8282]

Kakarot, I have two questions. I just got myself a Jegan D Type. 1: Is the shield easy to take off the Jegan once you put it on? 2: Do you recommend putting on the ecoas chest, or the normal red cockpit?

[@Arrowdodger]

ECOAS type has the same beams, right? is it a unique connection, or is it usable with UC beams? I'd ask about 00 beams, but I don't recall if you have any 00 kits, it not being a favorite of yours, aesthetically. I wonder what one would call this green. sort of a pistachio, versus the mint of the original Jeigan. I prefer the GM series to Jeigans, but this does look good.

[@D.Snom.]

Seriously what could bandai lose if the jegan d type was a regular release ?

[@mDS64reviews]

4th variant with only 2 new parts to its name, by going "web exclusive" they have a chance of boosting the sales by limiting how many of these are even made, they could make as many as they want until orders slow down. Bit like b-club resin kits, made in very small qualities, large price, for serious fans only

[@hyperiongm330]

MasterDS64's gunpla which is why Im wondering why they didn't do the Jegan A2 type (GR) instead of this as an online only.

[@mDS64reviews]

HyperionGM They could do both if they wanted too but I guess very little attraction to it

[@kaishangar]

Really love the ecoas began, but I'm holding off on it atm. *Fingers crossed for a Conroy Haagensen custom.

[@kakarot197]

Don't you mean *Fingers crossed for Bandai not making it an online exclusive *? I also really want one, another badass Jegan pilot!

[@mDS64reviews]

Hell yeah I'd buy one of these as well despite my ecoas jegan!

[@kaishangar]

***** shhhhhhh!!! DON'T JINX IT BRO!

[@lol3ndir]

Woah I checked it on Google and there will be 2 new JEGAN release!!! EWAC and Conroy yey!

[@kaishangar]

Witch King flic.kr/p/o7qw3o

[@just-tsugo1644]

I wanted this kit instead of the regular Y did they have to make this an exclusive!!!!!

[@azizabdul8914]

because the guy who got shot by Marida in episode 1 is so badass that he makes Stark Jegan likable.

[@mDS64reviews]

It is a shame about the exclusive parts, but that's why I'm converting my ecoas into an initial deployment type, could just say it wasn't finalized, wonder how I'll tackle the head, loose the clear and paint it blue or order a replacement part I wonder? MG jegan when bandai! (The Conroy Haagensen custom could possibly get a web release, least the new parts are easier to spot out!)

[@hyperiongm330]

MasterDS64's gunpla So to quote +Kakarot197 in this case: "Fuck you Bandai".

[@robolord117]

what one should I start my E.F.F MS? and What Jegan get first?

[@SOG1172]

Does anyone know if the JEGAN d type is the same color as some of the parts on the ghost JEGAN?

[@bluebirdsigma]

Can't you just get an ECOAS Jegan and use the spare head? It's close enough Or if you want a blue visor you use a vanilla CCA Jegan

[@mDS64reviews]

"Close" isn't close enough to perfection as the side of the head and vulcan differ, but if you aren't a perfectionist feel free to try... And the original jegan differs too much, crotch, bacpack are far too different, if you want a clear blue visor you may need to try gentei kit's "repair" service and pay for ONE part, or just paint it and loose the clear effect

[@bluebirdsigma]

I meant just the head of the vanilla jegan put on the body of the ECOAS jegan, obviously the body is too different

[@hyperiongm330]

SigmaXVirus then that requires paint

[@rx-0unicorngundam776]

Kakarot197- did you know you could view the instruction manuals and parts of Gundam kits at Hobby Search (1999.com) ?

[@mDS64reviews]

Dalong.net also has manual scans including some exclusives

[@MushaGundamMKIII]

Bandai has a weird taste in what they make online exclusives.
