1475 - MG GM Command [Colony Type] (OOB Review)

Here's the Master-Grade 1/100 scale GM Command [Colony Type]. I had some fun with this review, but all you need to know is that it's a fantastic, solid, cheap MG- and totally worth picking up!

Love that Rrobbert182 intro and some mechagaikotsu refs there...

[@chriscelino2023]

also with some jabman025?

[@Enlapanlima]

Man, I miss his reviews.

[@pixiemarc]

kakarot197 too

[@m1yuuu_combatseawolf]

The moment he mentioned "personally" I knew it there would be mechagaikotsu references

[@chrisgomez4661]

God it hit ne in the feels when he referenced rrobert184

[@jericm151]

"do you want to buy this?" I heard that from across the room and immediately thought of Kakarot197 lmao!

[@tedhodge4830]

Missing Zaku III size comparison

[@gn9128]

That rrobbert184 reference, brings me back

[@Des-rh9zn]

That Rrob reference really hit me in the feels

[@haku2510]

What happened to him? Did he just stop running the channel?

[@DONNY_G1028]

haku2510 He Thought the Gunpla fanbase is shit

[@chasinthroughthedecade]

Kawaguchi Amazing Eh? Where did he indicate that?

[@johntravis1393]

RRob please return ;-;

[@jerrybot7321]

Boring is good. It's a military weapon.

[@gomine5971]

Dry as all hell.

[@zehilereviews9016]

@@gomine5971 Popeyes biscuit, no drink challenge?

[@tedhodge4830]

If it was a military weapon it would be painted in green baby poop camo with rust accumulating around the edges, and probably would be permanently in the motor pool with a laundry list of complaints on DD-5988s. Probably with a slow class 3 leak. And you'd be tired of looking at it after PMCSing it week after week and scared to drive it, but your 1LT circle X'ed it so you have to anyway.

[@Erdrick68]

Not coming with a ton of weapons is not the biggest deal because most kits seem to come with far more weapons than they can hold with not place to attach them all. I'm sure most of us have a pile of unused, unpainted weapons just sitting around. What I really wish though, was that the Space Type was not p-bandai because I much prefer its little design changes.

[@cissuperdroid]

I do *NOT* prefer the Space Type's Nerf Super Soaker squirt gun.

[@jeff3221]

@@cissuperdroid it's gun is amazing hahahaha

[@zainul0021]

that Kakarot197's inevitable question

[@allbluedream]

The MG version of Kakarot197 :D

[@gomine5971]

Zee Shendo stryderprime too.

[@Josh-rb7kj]

Only get the jabman, robert, & gaikotsu. Which one is typev3 and the others? Need captain here

[@_Xorn_]

Ojoshh when he said the contents of the box that's typeV3 I think? I don't watch alot of typev3 videos so I'm not sure.

[@nu_keys]

Pewds reference with 399 I'm pretty sure

[@Fizee90]

Ojoshh when he said about the runners and stickers sheet..As i know type v3 always said like that when he doing review's gunpla kits

[@RayWarlord]

Love the fact you can goof around with the other gunpla reviewers on youtube. Honestly, I feel it's good for the community to be light hearted like this.

[@MarvelandDC379]

Love the opening.

[@ZombryaTheDark]

This video makes me appreciate all the other gunpla reviewers as well

[@DONNY_G1028]

1:45 Vidar the sequel

[@exiagn0012]

But more family friendly

[@gumperP]

Thank you for the review, I just bought this kit as my first step into MG kits, i've done a KO MG kit, and was disappointed. I last did kits about 20 years ago when I visited Hong Kong and found a store selling loads of sets. I bought this one and the old Gun Cannon MG kit to try and get back into things. Thanks for the review! I'll look out for the red chin part. :)

[@cesarcasti492]

Not gonna lie, the meme-tastic references and overall style made me laugh a bit, which hasn’t happened for a while with anything so, ya know thanks for that. 10/10 review as usual

[@itsmesaiph]

Love the youtube gunpla reviewers references. I do watch all of them, and your impressions were spot on, lol.

[@TadMF]

I'm impressed with your impressions!

[@yegplayegpla8904]

This was a fun episode! Thanks for the review.

[@rhen4short]

Dude, you're making miss Rrobbert184. We badly need that guy back

[@MyCorolla]

You are tearing me appart zaku!

[@TheHiddenBlader]

At first, I was a bit thrown off by all of the references to other reviewers. I love it though. Thanks for the unexpected chuckles and keep up the great work as always!

[@kirillkapaln4536]

best version of the chin on a GM 2.0 imo.

[@cocomcsprinkles2741]

Great video! It seemed like a great tribute to the many gunpla reviewers on youtube that has contributed to the gunpla community. Thumbs up!

[@lovecchio420]

I bought this today, and used your code.

[@Yoshi17111]

came for gm. liked for the intro

[@caseyringer2732]

Zack I don't think I laughed this much at a review before. 👍.

[@schloon]

Just started watching your videos, and I think they're great! Just bought my first Gundam from USA and used your code! Hope it helps! Keep up the great work 👍

[@raxkiyamatocarlos2102]

This was amazing. all you needed is was to throw some Prime92 in there . haha nice review.

[@skuffle5309]

You owe me the cleaning bill on my PJs for the coffee that came out of my nose due to the opening of this video! :D

[@knetye8124]

I def love the GM kits always worth getting

[@SSJHEW]

This review is so meta I love it.

[@xEz8x]

The gaikotsu type articulation review got me

[@simmsyboyminecraft]

This hurts my brain, your a lot better actor than I thought lmao

[@m1yuuu_combatseawolf]

Also imo these are the factors to consider if you want to grab one of the MG GM Trio: This kit = colors and price tag GM Sniper II = The sniper rifle and the sniper mode gimmick GM Sniper Custom = More weapons and accessories and also the sniper mode gimmick

[@joshuacolson625]

These kits loom seed. I wanted the sniper 2 but they ran out at usagundam. This things got that articulation though. I think these kits have a TON of potential to customize. Glad you did this kit.

[@veropag1850]

i think those left over parts might be interesting to have.. i recently built a gm/gm (build fighters) and i have so many left over pieces that i will have to find a use for and as for gates i personally wish bandai would start putting those gates in better places, i personally am a fan of the under gating or when they put a gate somewhere where it won't be seen like under another panel

[@14howZz]

man the opening hit me hard right in the feels

[@JangoTheBlueFox]

the ghost of Rrobbert184 lives on.

[@ashtaron23]

The opening is gold

[@mr.mooseman8558]

This is going to be my first gunpla,and from what I can tell,it is a good decision.

[@mr.mooseman8558]

Ok the gunpla came in after I made that comment and it was not the colony type,but it was the same model sooo,close enough.(also since then I got another gundam, which was the barbatos)

[@mr.mooseman8558]

Ok what I said earlier was true but recently my b-day passed, and I got this figure on saturday, and I actually have gundam master grade banshee norm ver.ka getting here on tuesday. Check out banshee norn's review

[@REmasteredSEED911]

The references xD SO BOUNTIFUL. And also a very nice MG. Wish there was a Jobby reference, but I might get slammed for going with the cancer again. Good enough xD

[@loweffortengineering9736]

Oh geez! confidence!!!!

[@skwigz21]

Finished the GM Sniper custom a few weeks ago and had a blast building it, and picked this kit (and Grimoire Red Beret) for my next kits and ASAP the GM Sniper II will be after that. Great review. Keep up the good work

[@clarencedelacruz7822]

You have a very good reference intro from other gundam reviewers HAHAHAHAAH 👍👍

[@QuantaSolace]

I'd love to pick this one up along with the Sniper 2. The problem is, I already dumped my birthday money into 3 Gundam Local Types, Ground Gundam, and I had to rebuy my RG Unicorn kit because the arm broke.

[@BigTArmada]

Man that thing looks good

[@linkthepumpkin8818]

I’m guessing strider prime, jabman, mecha gakatsu, Robert 2rs 2bs, kakarot, and maybe Charlie426 and vegeta? Great review, really funny

[@achaoPSG]

As you said, not the most exciting kit (or even exciting on its own). Buuuut ! I like it, I love the very simple and staight forward design. Especially the legs, the lines, all in smooth curves are so elegant... In fact, I prefer them to the legs of the GM Sniper 2. Definitely a kit that I'll get one day.

[@marcusthomsen2025]

THE BEST VID, EVER!

[@KingKilla7245]

That Chest and Backpack looks amazing, only downside is the plain looking legs

[@timoborgir]

buy my chair, its 399!

[@ainurminami5928]

weapon sub machine ghn with the ammo clips is so cool 😍😍

[@michaelt.lancaster9776]

Built the P-Bandai version for the beam rifle and for fun!

[@IamPrincePaul]

That opening was kinda familiar 😂

[@shacolin123]

Love that intro.

[@jabbarsaputra2502]

i noticed Robert182, MechaG, and jabman's "one more thing" it's epic bro. 🙌👍 i suggest you do the _Jobby_ one, u know that "SWIVEL!" thing, that would be epic. Anyway love ur review, awesome as always, i think i'll buy this particular GM, i love the head. better.

[@REmasteredSEED911]

Jabbar Saputra You'll only stir up a hornet's nest. I'd rather not. Though it would be nice.

[@chatspam1238]

you should have used the microphone the same way you did with the unboxing of this kit to complete the parody of revewers with a prime 92 impression lol.

[@DRstylez1220]

Good stuff bro real funny lol

[@shadowedsnipa]

I wish the space type was the regular release. I think that one looks cooler.

[@g-maru8486]

mecha did that to vidar... hahaha nice one zack :D

[@rysnlsmlmy7688]

These look so awesome weathered I don't know when any one would whinge tbh

[@calvinj7496]

Panic at the disco fanservise on point.

[@zipmd]

Hey, I had the same loose arm armor issue with the GM Sniper II.

[@Tallgeese3]

hey Zaku, are there any stores or available products that are focused on specific kit parts such as backpacks? I have some ideas for when my skills improve enough I can attempt modding, but i need GN Drives and don't really want to have to buy any of the 00 kits just for that one part.

[@LizardMan8675309]

I heard a reference from rrobert184, striderprime mechagaikotsu and jabman025 Oh and kakarot197

[@joshstreet6819]

looking to get back into gunpla what line would be the best to get for GM's MG or HGUC?

[@travisnichols8011]

Zach is savage!

[@tichy_ocean]

Of course but if you live in Europe you have care for customs taxes, taxes in general, expensive shipping and having your items being examined by police and customs departments

[@christianrojas5757]

Omg those references!

[@liamstyleschang362]

Haha awesome review!

[@terutend077]

Only reason I wanna pick up this kit is to complete my 2017 MG releases collection I have every MG released in 2017 except for this

[@morMICRO]

never forget side 2

[@TempeSaurus]

Hmm should I get this kit or Hobby Star Avalanche Astraea?

[@darkfent]

We need more models from the ex line

[@DanielHernandez-uo8si]

You know they should remake the Kampfer since they have made GM Sniper 2 and now GM Command Colony so why not? Maybe even Alex 2.0. I think it’ll be cool picking up two of the GM and one Sniper 2 to try and recreate the battle scene against the Kampfer even though they had little screen time and ultimately get destroyed.

[@faizizz4062]

187th MG? Wow. That's a prolific builder right there. Out of curiosity, do you custom paint all your Gunpla kits, or there are a few OOB builds?

[@ZakuAurelius]

Faiz Izz that number was a joke and a reference to jabman025

[@chasinthroughthedecade]

1:44 - Mechagaikotsu throwing out his 1/144 Vidar pretty much became a meme material, huh? XD

[@Xyanel]

dhathor was so funny tho. Re watched it like 12x when it came out xD

[@chasinthroughthedecade]

John Rannel B-but that poor kit, though.... :(

[@Xyanel]

dhathor wahaha true, when vidar came out, loved the design. Tho .... "If you love me let me go oh oh~"

[@thebekmanz]

The 1 Z, 1 A reminds me of "2 R's, 2 B's 😍

[@archmauser]

The inevitable question is CAN YOU DO DIS?!!!BAM 399 BABY!

[@ralphyanson8283]

hope next time you do some swivel here and beautful spread. ahaha

[@MR_MIRTH]

After years of watching this channel. I just realized OOB review means "out of box review"...

[@nu_keys]

This is the perfect answer to "What should be my first MG?"

[@bacchusendo9032]

I bought this kit also and it was my first Bandai Master Grade and I love it. I love the simplicity of the design, it reminds me of battroid mode valkyries from Macross. I agree with the issue about the model's arms/sleeves and how they tend to separate. Also found issues with boosters not wanting to stay on, can fix with super glue though.

[@nori4051]

that opening rrobert and that mechagaikotsu if you love me let me go joke love this video

[@mayoboii127]

that intro makes me miss Rrobbert182 :(((((((

[@codyjones1533]

And that stryderprime reference haha

[@zer0bre]

I like it!

[@SuperNova0079]

What's your Favorite Universal Century Mobile Suit?

[@keianhallmark9251]

Does it come with the beam saber effect parts?

[@harogenkitnsg2474]

Zach why must you make me miss Rrobbert184 even more ;~;

[@ultris07]

Nice review, though was hoping for a little more in-depth analysis, kind of annoyed with a few design choices, especially with inside pieces. Would love to get a few more kits and swapping parts, Gunpla is nice, and I've barely gotten into it.

[@MachineMindDesigns]

The only gunpla review ya didn't reference was Prime92........but that would require an RG Exia and a voice modulator.

[@murdermachine9]

CommandantAlpha all he need to say is "hello gundam fans, this is zaku aurelius and today i'll be reviewing mg gm command colony type". But he did the rrobert intro, which is spot on

[@AsherReigns]

Why does Prime 92 use a voice modulator? I want to watch their content but the voice modulation is really grating.

[@harogenkitnsg2474]

I think she likes to keep anonymous.

[@stupendously_silly]

Haro Genki TNSG247 you can see how she looks like on one of her old vids, not exactly anonymous.

[@racer164]

Haro Genki TNSG247 prime92 is a girl?

[@oniarmoury]

Was expecting "Crotch COPTER" or at least "An. Kle. ROCKERS"

[@ZakuAurelius]

Ya de? Aww that would have been good. Next time

[@OtonashiV]

The GM Sniper II lineart's circles on the legs were the same blue as the rest of the suit, for what it's worth. Not sure why they would paint them grey on the promo images when it's inaccurate and makes the MG inaccurate to the promo images.

[@BlackRoseMovement4]

This is awesome is awesome

[@elite393]

Those references were great lmao.
