1/144 HGUC Zaku I (Black Tristars Ver.) Review

[@Arrowdodger]

I think it was in Pokemon Black/White 2, but not positive, but a trainer comments that they want to come up with a formation(maybe an attack, I forget) for 3 on 3 battles, and mentions a "Jetstream attack" by name, in what had to be intentional. Kind of cool how the Tri-Stars, even if they are not as iconic as Char, still show up in one way or another in culture sometimes.

Awesome review! I ordered and received this last week as well as waiting on the kit with default colors! Can't wait to customized them!

[@reb980]

the molding of this HGUC Zaku I is very similar to the MG Zaku I with the exception of the shoulder support for the bazooka on the HG model, still one black Zaku I is not enough to buy, make it 3 in homage to the Black Tri-Stars...btw, I love the way you pronounce "Sturmfaust" aka RPG,

[@datto240z]

I have always said the Zaku I should of been the Zaku II..it looks and seems to be a more modern designed suit.

[@dnte666]

I’m not sure if it’s redcon or not but that’s an exact point made in the anime. Zaku I’s were too expensive to mass produce like Zaku II hence the exposed pipes and more industrial look of Zaku II’s. That’s also why you still see Zaku I’d in later war periods alongside the late period Zakus. The ones maintained were still solid MS.

[@Arrowdodger]

You are a bigger fan of the Zaku I than I am, but you did get me to appreciate the design more, even if I prefer the Zaku II, even with lesser articulation. Excellent kit all the same, definitely, and given a lot of Zaku Is belong to officers, a lot of room for customization.

[@pioltjose23]

the zaku I is a awesome mobile suit despite being obsolete by the time the one year war began it was still favored over the zaku II by many zeon officers.

[@Arrowdodger]

It was neat, and I imagine a lot of that was due to familiarity with the Zaku I, since it'd have been what they started with. Plus, if you're just firing your bazooka at feddie ships, it's less relevant which one you are in, since I don't think the EFF had even fielded Balls until later on, albeit still before they had the GMs in large numbers.

[@pioltjose23]

Arrowdodger agreed

[@pioltjose23]

I still can't believe bandai still hasn't fix the heat hawke problem

[@Mecha82]

Its difficult to find bad things about this kit and that says something about how good this kit really is.

[@fencer0Z]

Still one of the best kits I've ever built way better than modern kits

[@Anon4495]

I do not see a lot of MG on your channel, but I have heard some good things about the MG Zaku I, at 2,500 Yen do you think it would be a better deal?

[@theaceofspades56]

Great review! Will definitely be getting three of these. Am I the only one who hears the English version of Amuro in his voice??

[@pioltjose23]

hey kakarot do you have the zaku I sniper.

[@dariusryu]

for the zaku 1 machine gun when storing it on the back part of the waist i use the handle instead cause it holds it better

[@pioltjose23]

This is no hi-zack boy! no hi-zack

[@robertnehls6783]

This is no Zake boy! No Zaku!

[@pioltjose23]

If you can't decide which to get why not get more than one zaku I.

[@gundam2011andmore]

can you add the shoulders from a normal zaku II or the Black Tristars shoulders hmmm and maybe the legs as well

[@legendofxana]

Ashraf Elgallab nope

[@PianoLP94]

A lot of english speaking people say german words like "Sturmfaust" in rather funny ways, but you are pretty good at it. May i ask where you live?

[@kakarot197]

I'm from Belgium and I speak Dutch(/Flemish) as first language so that's why =P

[@PianoLP94]

***** Oh, so you don't live as far away from me as I thought. Greetings from Austria :D
