@MechaGaikotsu I think they haven't done a pg yet just due to its size, all the pg they have done have pretty much been the same height, the unicorn being the only one that was tall, but the unicorn also has some bulk, something that nu doesn't have, at least that's my take. I may be the odd one out, but I would prefer pgs of grunt units like the zgok (not joking), gelgoog, kampher, Leo, and give some of the alternative universes some more love besides seed, especially turn A

For those who want to know why MG line is dying is due to it has not a good return of investment for bandai. Sure they are still selling well in japan, but compared to RG or HG, they sell worse. Not to mention due to their size, it has bad shelf presence in store if it doesn't sell (it take space, it is considered to have long shelf presence), etc. Not to mention housing problem also a factor in japan where 1/100 kit take too much space for japan small residence.

Personally, I ended up with a ton of HG and RGs, with a singular PG as a centrepiece. But good lord that PG might shift to the living room because it is insanely big.

RG kits are the just light weight and right size to pose. Unlike bigger kits when heavier plastic parts tend to sag holding weapons etc. Unless they engineer complex moving joints design to make parts sturdy and stable.

[@MarkAbarca-s1v]

When I started into gunpla - Gundam Build Fighters is to blame for that! - I really enjoyed building HG kits. Then I decided to try an RG kit.

Such a great deal of satisfaction and sense of accomplishment when you finish one.

[@DX16]

How does it compare to the OG Real Grade ? And to other grades ? Also, how does it feel to build a kit that's using a completely new molding system, allowing for different geometry in the parts ?

[@kydigadig]

The RG grandpa 2.0 is basically the pg unleashed. But shrunk down to 1/144 size. Like the pg unleashed, you'll be building the full frame first. Then add the armor. It looks bulkier than the original. But it blows it out of the water. All the parts stay fit and strong. Nothing pops out while posing, like the original. And it can pose up a storm, like the rg god gundam. It's really a must get.

[@Zedexization]

Pro tip to anyone who wants to start with RG kits. Get one of those joint strengthening pens or a Mr Cement. It's a godsend if you end up getting loose joints. My first kit was an RG Astray Red Frame and the number 1 problem I had with it is that the joints was slightly looser than I want it to be. Asked a friend and it was normal due to it having so many parts. Moved on to HG kits only because I don't want to be bothered with the higher chance of dealing with a loose joint from an RG kit.

[@enders-builds]

I had been put off by the "hand grenade" aspect others have spoken of earlier RG, but I started with the well-reviewed RG Tallgeese and never looked back. I have two RG Nus and Sazabis (Fin Funnel Effect Set and Gundam Base Limited Clear) and these have been absolute masterpieces of engineering.

If you want a feel of an old RG that will not explode in your hands, you can always pick the mk2 in either color. Just Keep in mind the nubs in the titans version are horrendous. Mine has a lot of knub marks but is still a beauty of a model kit.

I'm still on team unicorn because johnny ridden was the next kit after unicorn but the frame was yes. Next year was banshee norn, tallgeese, sazabi, and FA unicorn in respective order.

I would also point out that when it comes to painting and top coating, my supplies last longer due to the size. It is indeed a balance of price, details, and size.

"RG is the best", I'm literally gagging at these close up shots of the RG Epyon with silvering decals that are overhanging, stress marks, swirl marks. I'm here for MGs all day. Long live the king.

Question for the review: hoe does it compare to the other 1/144 rx-78-2 and the original rg

[@jeanramsis1771]

As someone who wants to make photography projects using Gundams, the 1/100 size is perfect for me as it's easier to be shot using a DSLR camera and do close-ups. The 1/144 scale isn't that good for close shots. Also, the size is just perfect for someone who appreciates clarity and details. RG and fun to collect yes but 1/100 and MG are just so good ❤

[@AlbinoManateeNation]

My favorite kit I’ve built so far is the Strike Freedom MGEX, absolute perfection. Love building real grades though and I actually like that they are smaller in size, while still retaining details

[@angriestchezburger]

It's been wonderful to see how good RG kits have gotten over the years, they're absolutely phenomenal and I always feel like I'm getting my money's worth. But I wish Bandai would make some master grades every once in a while too man 😭

[@frostyfennel]

how does it compare to the original RG grampa gundam and other previous real grades?? should i consider grabbing one if i can?

[@Lucas-iSL]

My first ever model kit was the RG Crossbone back when pandemic lockdown was kicking in and I needed a new hobby. So yeah, this line of kits will always be special to me.

[@tsunfish9443]

Yeah, the RG burning gundam standing on one hand is probably the most amazing thing I've seen in gunpla. I got over my trauma from the super early RG Justice, and bought the RG burning right after finishing the other vid that showcased its poses hahahahaa

[@angelwingzero]

Another 2.0 question, does it have any bad po-off? The 1.0 had a lot of small parts that would pop off randomly, in my experience.

[@henryfleischer404]

My favorite Gunpla kit so far is the RG Zeong, I feel like it's internal design really tells a story about it's in-universe development, with how 2 engines are attached like legs. It makes me want an RG Hyaku Shiki- apparently, in-story, it was originally intended to be a transforming mech, and I'd like to see that reflected in the internals of a kit.

[@pokemoniscoolio4162]

I just picked mine up at the airport of all places! It looks amazing so far.

[@halorafa]

Where did you get that runner stand at 4:04? Its looks awesome! Does it works with all sizes of runner? I would love to have the same one

[@mateogarciaguerra9536]

My first RG was the very first one, and though I had some issues with some parts falling, it became my fav 144 scale. So I decided recently to start my RG collection. This video just assured me this was the best idea I've ever had

[@Koji_Idk]

Really want to see if there’s some back pack compatibility with like any or Hi Nu ngl. Would also be cool to see how the RG gramps 2.0 compares to those two

[@carlzerris6566]

Adam Savage built the Perfect Grade Extreme about a year back and was really impressed by how much was crammed into that kit. I would love to see him build the new RX-78-2 RG to see the other end of the size spectrum.

[@infinitevanguard2464]

I just want to see you compare it to the RG Hi Nu. This has to be one of the best looking RG Kit ive seen since that one, so it would be cool to see the tech in each compared.

[@matriix18]

I just finished my first gunpla ever. Got the MG Zeta Ver ka at hobby lobby on a 40% sale while shopping with my lady. Very detailed kit and lots of fun putting it together. Got the MG rx 78-2 ver 3 that I'm going to start this weekend. After that I'm getting a bunch of RG's because they look so detailed.

[@simonmuscat8603]

Real Grades is how I started Gunpla. The first was the EW Wing Gundam and that turned out okay, but I'm much more experienced now. My next big project is the RG Unicorn Gundam Phenex. It should be easier since I cannot panel line the gold plating without damaging it. But my next MG project will be the MG OO Qant Full Saber, but only once I can find a metal inner frame to replace the plastic frame.

[@ZTex10]

MG was my favorite until the RG God Gundam and Epyon came out. Those completely changed how I thought of RG. I still prefer the size of MG because I love that huge shelf presence, but everything RG that has been coming out as of late has completely blown me away and has easily become my new favorite.

[@Anugrah_Amriza]

Question for the Review: Compared to the Origin HG, Which one can out pose the other? Mainly because the Origin RX-78-2 is the Most posable while still looking like the Old Styled RX-78-2 ( not counting the G40 RX-78-2 ).

[@TOAD-uw4mh]

I have all 41 RG kits. It is my favourite line. I love the detail and the decals. It has made me put water decals on every kitt I build now.

[@NexuJin]

I started with RG as a small desk decoration. So the 1:144 scale was a conscience choice. But MGSD also becoming a huge favorite. It's like a 1:144 scale body with chibi proportion with a 1:100 head. Maybe it's nostalgia, but for me the favorite RG is still the Mark II. It withstood the test of time and was my first kit that got me hooked to gunpla. For me, the looks of Mark II Gundam was the definitive Gundam look.

[@MrNiskratus]

Back when I first started building Gunpla I would have said MG, but I totally agree with you, RG has been steadily improving for years now, but I do have a grade that I hope gets more kits and maybe also gets some inovation love, the MGSD, the two kits they have released have been so fun to build and look incredible.

[@apoclypse]

RG has always been my favorite grade. The detail, the tiny parts, the articulation and gimmicks/tech. All amazing.

[@kevinhone7526]

I was doing the Gundam Freedom Strike, I had some struggle with the gold air brush. Turns the product I bought from Green Stuff World. Didn't work and made the part's sticky and broke the waist but managed to glue them together and broke the right leg I think. So I'm buy again and this time do it better. So I have practice on making gold. Please use a wearable magnifying glass, and be slow and gentle, don't force it otherwise it will break. Watch were you cut?

[@kobofficialacc]

Can you talk about the depth of panel lines in the 2.0? I’ve found that earlier real grades have shallow panel lines that end up getting rubbed out when cleaning the extra ink

[@Dstinct]

For the 78 2.0, I'd like to know if the outer shell looks similar enough to the 1.0 that you can use the same waterslides on it. I've had a 1.0 sitting in my closet for a while with waterslides, and I've already preordered the 2.0. I want to know if I can just throw the stickers on the 1.0 and save the waterslides for the 2.0.

[@mstrchf-vq2nb]

Is the new rg rx 78 2 2.0 rock solid? Like are there any finicky parts that pop off just from small adjustments? Or is it rock solid like the last few rgs?

[@sharkbaitcustoms6111]

One advangtage of RG’s for me since I paint is that it takes shorter time to completely paint work on them, even with lots of parts. They have smaller pieces so covering with paint is faster. And I do love the details of them so I still buy RG’s a lot.

[@negiandtoast8839]

I would like you to compair the oragin's RX-78-2 1.0 and 2.0's inner frames. Also i would like a call back to the video where you compaired the RX-78-2's at 1/144 scale.

[@Xarcabard]

RG is definitely my favorite type of gunpla. Even though RG didn't hit its stride until the Unicorn, I have a soft spot for RG Destiny. It was my first RG kit and reignited my love of the hobby after 20 years.

[@MaidenlessScrub]

Destiny was my first RG, and it remains as the bane of my existence lol

[@xxxtrathin3809]

I still like MG. I’m still relatively new to the hobby and I just LOVE the classic MG feel. I mainly build ones from 06-2017 because they’re simple yet complex build just blows me away every time. I still do dabble in RG, but it’s never been my go-to. And yes, I have built all of the good RGs in recent months and I should say that I was definitely blown away. It’s definitely not master grade charm level, but they were definitely something else!

[@editorssociety1474]

Just got my RG tallgeese and RG Nu gundam really excited for the build. Btw Love from India Mecha , you doing a great job.🎉

[@FOXZILLA5734]

When RG was first introduced I thought it was such an amazing idea that is basically an HG with MG quality, the Strike was my very first RG and remembered really enjoying it. Over time the line was hit or miss but I personally I think the line finally hit it's stride with the release of the RG Unicorn Gundam and ever since then this line has been killing it, it was a journey but they finally reached their high point.

[@freakshow5355]

If your able to, can you do the final shooting shot with the rx-78 2.0 and rg zeong.

[@xzy_mer]

Hey Mecha, do you think this 2.0 Frame will be used in the next series of Real Grades the same way they did at the 1.0?

[@KaeEbonrai]

I build RG nearly exclusively! I have yet to try master grade and perfect grade, as I started during the pandemic (mostly watching your videos, Mecha!), but I have to say my favourite of all gunpla kits so far has been the RG Hi-Nu Gundam with second going to the RG RX-93FF Nu Gundam and probably 3rd being a tie between the RG God Gundam, the RG msn-04ff Sazabi and the regular RG Sazabi

[@Viichan777]

If you are going to try a master grade, I'd recommend the mg jegan as it's good looking, easy to pose and starts you off well. Pg you should start with the strike rouge or exia. The rouge is better than the regular strike as you get the pg skygrasper and the stand with it. Only thing I recommend is not to listen to the community and definitely try older mg and pg kits, they did many unique things that modern bandai would never try or give for free, but you will need a Japanese jis screwdriver set.

[@Heros_time]

MG is my favourite for how well they look on a shelf from far away. Not too big to take up the full thing and not too small to be hard to make out what it is. HG and RG just are too small for making them out when looking at them on a shelf but RG is great for when you wanna get close to them and see them. PG just are amazing for making even people not into gundam have their jaws drop a bit at how cool they are and turns the most heads easily for that reason.

[@ImmortalBanditt]

My first ever kit was the RG Unicorn that was a crazy first pick up but man I fell in love with gunpla after and it’s insane how that kit still holds up to this day

[@22Dooms]

Is the connection to the backpack and beam saber loose? I want to know so bad!

[@AllHailShadow117]

RG has always been my favorite line. Two of my first 5 kits I built were the RG Strike Freedom and RG 00. And while the SF has some fragility issues, the 00 is still great and one of my favorites from the line, even if it is older. The main thing that imo makes the line great is that you don’t need to do much if any additional work to make them look amazing. They can always look better after custom work, but oob imo there is no better line.

[@pokitcheze7274]

I’m really curious just how sturdy that core fighter really is. It also pulls a lot from the PG unleashed so I’m also curious how similar those two are design wise and maybe even build wise
