1922 - HG Gundam Zerachiel (OOB Review)

Here's the High-Grade 1/144 scale Gundam Zerachiel. This kit takes the HG Harute and frankly doesn't change it all that drastically, but still a fun build with cool accessories and gimmicks!

Thanks for watching!

[@FunnyBunny84]

I just picked it up and started working on it. I painted the chin guard 2 shades darker grey. Definitely digging it so far...minus the tank tracks.

[@anzthma]

Seeing Zach liking this kit and Mecha giving this kit a pass just shows the two different ends of choosing a kit

[@lRDlRKPS]

Goes to show why you also need to look at multiple reviews before picking up a kit too.

[@neonlightillusion]

Zach looks at things like a modeller, whereas Mecha looks at things like an action figure reviewer... despite the fact that Gunpla aren't action figures.

[@ZakuAurelius]

I’ll have to watch his review. But honestly what’s there to complain about. Minimal stickers and seams for an HG, especially considering it’s age. Decent articulation, good array of weapons, and a simple but decent-looking transformation. Includes a stand. It’s not ground-breaking but there’s really little to complain about.

[@gohan11s]

@@neonlightillusion I couldn't agree more, I feel like I always have to look at Mecha's Gunpla reviews with a grain of salt.

[@TsundereSupreme]

No, it just shows Mecha's flawed point of view and unrealistic standards.

[@ZZeta83]

Does anyone else think of Arwings from Starfox with this kit? Particularly the ones from Starfox Zero, because it transforms form plane to tank to MS ("Walker"). plus the color scheme is pretty close to an Arwing.

[@ZakuAurelius]

Certainly!

[@Gunnisberg]

Oh you mean the landmaster?

[@Quadrolithium]

@@Gunnisberg as if they fused Landmaster, Arwing, and the mecha Andross' forces keeps on using.

[@ZZeta83]

@@Quadrolithium Well in Starfox Zero the Arwings actually do transform into the Landmaster and into this walking duck thing called the "Walker."

[@KRiderMan1248]

Yeah i picked this one up. You get options with normal and divers mode. The only think that id like is an extra head but thats not a deal breaker for me

[@CryCLLViolin]

More like Gundam Zerakuaurelius amirite

[@Biofan813]

I adore shining break and just picked up this boy. Excited to get him built

[@HybrydATP64]

Thank you for your discount code i’m getting my mg rx-78-2 from usa gundam store today, keep making awesome content!

[@ZakuAurelius]

You’re welcome!

[@enzou]

I love the sight of good HGs in hobby stores when I buy them but when I buy giant MGs like the zz ver ka gundam and an mg seven sword i kinda think : oh god can i even build this thing ?

[@heresy8]

I dont know from what this one is but its a cool kit. I love the "v-fins". Unique. Reminds me of the astray no name(i gotta paint that...)...

[@justpassingby298]

It's from a spin off manga to gundam build divers, GBD break, the original gundam is from the gundam 00 movie, 00 a wakening of the trailblazers

[@gelogo107]

It looks like the frame arms of kotobukiya.. i don't know which one but that head sculpt is very familiar..

[@calamansi_art]

Gusion rebake?

[@Nozarashi1993]

Frame arms Baselard

[@reynaldorafananjr.2655]

mobile suit turning into tanks, LOTO does it a million times better. or should i say. LOTO can easily do it "sitting down".

[@DarrenC_1024]

Loto does it a-loto better.

[@MrMechasexual]

Guntank R-44 says hi

[@reynaldorafananjr.2655]

@@MrMechasexualIts only based on the LOTO. Plus LOTO looks much more convincng as a tank.. but guntank r44 really looks cool.

[@reynaldorafananjr.2655]

@@DarrenC_1024 LOL LOTO for the win.

[@MrMechasexual]

@@reynaldorafananjr.2655 I still need to build my 1/100 Guntank R-44. It's sitting along with the rest of my gunpla backlog. I also got a HGUC LOTO that I'm waiting for.

[@dtejada1988]

Thanks for the review bro! 😎👍🏼

[@asadler43]

I actually really perfer the head on this than the orginal

[@vustvaleo8068]

it has both a jet mode and a tank mode, so the Zerachiel is secretly Transformers Blitzwing?

[@rolandcabral5295]

Vust Valeo in a sense, I guess that’s what they’re going for: a Gundam triple changer

[@nikos_kommatas]

I've just built him and as you said there are same spare part. Is there any video, or manual, on how to built them? Especially the head!

[@awireon]

i think i will build this,because of double transform like Reversible

[@BNuts]

Optimal Optimus custom?

[@TheLeyva5000]

Tbh, I’m not really into the new op for Golden wind. Same for the outro. Maybe it’s just me.

[@enzou]

Wait why we talkin bout Jojo now ?

[@henrymachan0122]

@@enzou yeah wtf?

[@wimalamahardhika618]

Do you know what use the extra part in this gundam? Un used part

[@npc6817]

sorry if the question is stupid but do you get the parts from harute's holllow feet along with the other extra parts? its my favourite feature of halleluja's mobile suits but I am not even sure if the original harute had it.

[@justpassingby298]

it has everu harute parts, so you can make a grey and blue harute

[@npc6817]

@@justpassingby298 dont get me wrong I love the new parts, I just prefer the original feet

[@justpassingby298]

I wasn't judging you, just answering the question, I dolove the hollow feet of the kyrios line

[@npc6817]

@@justpassingby298 sorry if it came out wrong, I understand now what you meant

[@BarelyDecentProduction]

Are you interested with the unicorn perfectibility kit?

[@ZakuAurelius]

Not really

[@ryanbell7400]

Does Gundam Base Tokyo sell p-Bandai kits? Do they have all of them like they do all the retail release kits?

[@ZakuAurelius]

They have a few but not many. Better go to somewhere like Surugaya

[@Gairun]

Doesn't it's chest armor remind anyone of the second GaoGaiGar?

[@v.belmont6861]

Now I know why it looked so familiar

[@SpellBladeVortex]

GaoFighGar!

[@MelniaShadow]

Wait he have a GN-Drive crotch?

[@justpassingby298]

yup, from arios to harute, GN drive was in the crotch

[@hendradarmawan9698]

Triple changer MS/Gundam.

[@mfcrafta9606]

You dont have Harute kit?

[@ZakuAurelius]

I did have the bootleg Final Battle version but I sold it

[@twilight_phantom2969]

I think I'll get this for parts

[@ZakuAurelius]

Definitely good kitbash fodder here!

All I have to do is to have a (Dynames) green acrylic paint and I'm sold
