1/144 HGUC Zaku I review

[@EbullientSMP]

I just noticed how amazing the thumbnail is.

[@Ignishawn]

Real

[@juandelata]

The thumbnail always catches me off guard every time this gets recommend to me lol

[@wesker919]

The one thing that would have made the origin version perfect: Commander Antenna.

[@themanofmilk6394]

Or a spare shoulder part for the other side

[@ahmadmuhaimin8425]

wow i was not expecting this from a zaku I .Thank you for making this reveiw .

[@boiboi5402]

I know this video is old as hell now but it just helped me pick my new suit

[@kakarot197]

Just like the Zaku I, old doesn't always have to be outdated.

[@killyourself6150]

Really advanced kit for its time. The articulation is crazy good for such an old one.

[@Xroslight]

The zudah was the best until it blew itself up because it outsped 3 gms and they blew up before the zudah did in ms igloo

[@matmusada]

Thank you for the review. I’m looking to make my Gundam OC’s Custom Zaku I commander and was going to go with the Origins Kit but the lack of a commander antenna was a deal breaker. This kit seems like it still holds up.

[@Brawler_1337]

Well, if you’re gonna be painting it anyway, you might as well either steal a commander antenna from another kit or find the Builder Parts MS Blade set, which gives you several commander fins to choose from. Just glue em on and you’re done.

[@matmusada]

@ good point.thanks for the advice

[@Brawler_1337]

@@matmusada But yeah, the old Zaku I is still very much a worthy purchase.

[@gmsloep]

Something tells me MCPO Matt Austin would be proud.

[@bee-beargaming]

I actually love the design of the Zaku 1.

[@Arrowdodger]

I have always preferred the Zaku II, looks wise, but Zaku I has grown on me, and it does have less weighing it down, even if it's canonically slower, too, I think, since I think it has fewer thrusters, but it is going to have an easier time, model mobility-wise. While not all that practical, I kinda like the "Chocobo feet", as Prime92 calls them.

[@fishpop]

So THAT'S what the weird shoulder pad is for! I prefer having my Zakus as grunts without the horn unless it's an Ace's custom.

[@megatron8490]

Is this the same size as the hguc 1/144 rx-78-2 revive?

[@Arrowdodger]

Yeah, you're right. And I'll always love the Zaku II, myself, I think he's got a good balance. Zaku I is neat, but looks kinda like a duck since he doesn't have the armor or tubes balance out that head, and the monoeye is blocked a little, which seems inconvenient.

[@WatcherMovie008]

gotta remember that the HGUC GunCannon was the 1st HGUC they made. If they redid the GunCannon, it would be a buy for me.

[@Arrowdodger]

I almost hope you mess up more often, that technical difficulties screen is just hilarious

[@skinnyphd]

the zudah is a great kit for starters. its also great kit

[@V.XIII_Ultra]

I really like the look of this suit, but the Black Tri-Star color scheme looks better in my opinion.

[@austin5944]

WE'VE GOTTEN ONE DANGEROUS INDIVIDUAL HERE!

[@karlburke6983]

Kakarot do you need to pay for 1999's shipping?

[@WatcherMovie008]

Always a fan for the Zaku design, especially the original. Plan on getting two Zaku I for custom shoulders ^_^

[@johnbastion747]

I love gunpla kits that has lots of accessories AND can store them on the model itself

[@davethe135]

I bought this kit 2 times and i have the Tri version type too

[@AwalAznable]

I have 2 of them, building a zeon army

[@costcocombopizza8229]

Yeesssss DO IT!

[@AwalAznable]

@@costcocombopizza8229 should see my collection now, the feddies would be soaking their panties I build 23 kits in the past 3 months

[@costcocombopizza8229]

23 Zaku Is!?

[@kahliltellini6866]

Saaaaame, so far hguc standard Zaku 2 Black Tristar Ortega Zaku 2Origin Char Zaku 2 origin shin matsunaga custom Zaku 2

[@ultraskull9101]

I see that thumbnail in my feed

[@dnhmrnii]

My gods this is 10y old Holly molly

[@Arrowdodger]

Do you know if the accessories are any different? I don't have Guntank or Guncannon, and you can never have too many RX-78-2s, so I might get this, if only to save on shipping!

[@KaitoKaze]

I like non commander type zaku, make it more bad ass for me, but might make commander type maybe if I decide to make a team of zaku lol.

[@Arrowdodger]

that makes sense, though wouldn't the weight difference be negligible in space? Then the Zaku II would be faster, right? On the surface though, Zaku I might have the edge, even if he sacrifices a lot of armor.

[@draxusdemos8266]

Arrowdodger not really even in zero g weight plays a big part as their is always gravity In some way. Without taking into account micro gravity weight effects acceleration

[@Arrowdodger]

Operation V set? What is that? Been really wanting a GunCannon, so you have piqued my interest.

[@jjuan4382]

I like it but it needs a standish color like 8th ms team. Speaking of 8th ms team WHYYYYYY OH GAWWD WHHYYYYYYY

[@BlitzkriegOmega]

it's a shame this kit doesn't come with a second Shoulderpad, cuz I would totally create a custom based on the Zaku I from Zeonic Front.

[@kakarot197]

You can still do so by buying a second Zaku I, the shoulders can be swapped ;)

[@Thedoorsgoat123]

This video 2012. When I got this gunpla. 2024 💀💀💀💀💀

[@Adam_Aiman]

Ay! its not the worst MS 😑 respect the zeons bro

[@MrRe-pg7fj]

Adam Aiman well the zaku 1 is pretty good in the beginning of the OYW.But later on it would be replaced with better ms.

[@Arrowdodger]

True, or get some salmon and red paint and give Char is own RX

[@Arrowdodger]

Are you by any chance going to get the Thunderbolt Zaku I when it comes out? Or the Zaku Sniper?

[@kakarot197]

The Zaku I has already been pre-ordered =3 The Zaku Sniper is a model kit I'll eventually get(as in: I still have a bit of money left that month and it happens to be in stock =P )

[@Arrowdodger]

hehe, my thoughts on it, more or less. it's neat, but it isn't a priority

[@coachjunoquirabo5313]

i wish they made a bootleg outta this guy

[@oasisisaiah203]

Good mod,I like that^=^

[@necro3609]

Nice thumbnail

[@Z95HeadHunter]

Anime fanservice moment in the thumbnail

[@fullarmorpp]

bruh... that thumbnail...

[@xpluscollectorscrew]

The Zaku I is only utter crap in the hands of a green pilot...

[@boonsaksmasher21]

Bruh thumd nail

[@GlaciusX2]

I know its suposed to look old... but this kit looks like an absolute peace of shit xD

[@aatosgarcia6746]
