440 - MG RX-78-02 Gundam The Origin (OOB Review)

[@NewtypeCommander]

If you're curious about the second shoulder Vulcan gun, in Gundam: The Origin the Gundam gets an upgrade while in Jaburo. This upgrade included the Core Fighter, new shoulder thrusters, and a second Vulcan gun that replaced the one on the left shoulder. Actually, the Gundam gets a total of TWO upgrades in the manga. The final one adds more thrusters and the famous Magnetic Coating Joints to better react to Amuro's awakened Newtype powers.

[@goonerOZZ]

mechaman13 so basically the G-3?

[@zacharyradford5552]

No G3 was a whole new suit.

[@crolodon8024]

Watched this review last night, found the kit sitting on the shelf at my local hobby shop this morning. My wallet came out reaaaaaal quick.

[@ZakuAurelius]

+Crolodon Ohhhh Good choice!

[@crolodon8024]

+ZakuAurelius Yep, but I'm debating between building this or the Mobile Worker MW-01 tonight..

[@NelsonFilmsStudio]

ZakuAurelius hi, I’m struggling with this and the 1/100 Unicorn kit, can you give a suggestion?

[@ayy-dree-in]

@@NelsonFilmsStudio The Unicorn is not a starter kit, if you're new try buying easier kits to build to have practice than after that move on to harder ones like the Unicorn

[@Gunplabro]

I just started building this kit. I love it so far. The head is SO COOL. And I love how the ab crunch clicks into place locking you your specific crunch to help maintain your pose. That mechanic is SO HYPE! People who complain about the constant rereleases of the RX-78 fail to understand how much raw engineering is added to every single kit! I will be posting a timelapse on my channel!

[@Barbariandisks]

I want to thank you for pointing out the solid yellow eye piece on this kit, i was worried with my old eyes(50 yrs old) to trying to deal with those decals on the eyes.

[@Peahnuts]

I like how you emphasized the stress marks and brittleness of some aspects of the model. You did this in your V2 MG review too. A lot of reviewers (and the general trend for the modelkit target audience) is to want for more articulation and details, but what they don't realise is that more moving parts and articulation gimmicks means less durability in general. So it was good how you talked about the hip joint. Reminds me of the MG Destiny's hips and how I wished it was just a normal peg lol.

[@blaarg001]

reminds me of blueframes hips on the 2ndL, snapped a day after i built it.

[@Peahnuts]

+ZephyranthesGP01 my MG blue frame snapped in the same spot! but while trying to pose him.

[@spee9dy457]

That stress mark thing made me hesitant of getting MG RX-78-02.

[@hungryalien]

just finished mine and so true about the brittleness and stress marks. some of the moving parts are very tight (resulting in white stress marks) had to lube some areas to avoid future damages. did cracked the shoulder while trying to mount the right arm. other than that, the kit is very good. nice details, and loving the looks :)

[@patrickramosofmanila]

This is worthy of being my first MG after all those HGs and RGs.

[@grimmestcreaper2212]

Hey Zak, the reason the kit comes with two Gatling Guns (Blue and Yellow) is because the Yellow is how the Gatling Gun appears in the Mobile Suit Gundam: The Origin Manga (See the cover of Volume 1 for reference) and the Blue is supposed to be for people who prefer a more Anime-Accurate look. Although i wish they included a Yellow V-Fin for this. Since it features that in the Manga.

[@alicejibija6525]

late reply, but a yellow v fin is included in the special edition of this kit.

[@isaacreiner1623]

WE NEED A CHAR ZAKU THE ORIGIN.

[@Coolio_Ash]

[@Coolio_Ash]

ohhhh

[@isaacreiner1623]

Coolio Ash Yup.

[@Keeferd]

wow I'm definitely getting this kit. It has so many features but doesn't go over the top with it.

[@ZakuAurelius]

+Keith VonBernewitz Agreed! It's elegant!

[@scarletmeteorc]

For the grey part on the shield with the screw details, I think it is used for stacking two shields together. Imagine you had another shield and plug the long end of the screws into the holes not from the inside but the outside, then with a shield installed like you did here 25:26, the shorter screws of the shield with the grey parts installed inside should be able to go on top of the same grey part installed in the other direction. Unfortunately, I don't have two kits myself that I couldn't try it out, but this is the best guess I can give.

[@thecaptainzippy1821]

I don't know if this has been said but, that weird shaped part grey part under the window in the shield is an extra handle that the gundam can use to hold the shield upside-down like in the anime. Love this gundam tho never hade any issues with it yet

[@oliverkloshophdndrecords50]

On mine... The fingers pop out to easy. And the toes too. But other than that, it is by far my favorite kit. Well, this and my MG 1/100 Epyon Ew

[@ivancazares129]

Had to come back and comment on this video. Recently finished snapping this kit together. I love it. It's my first MG. I bought the special version. Only differences are the box art, it includes 2 led lights and a pretty cool poster of the Gundam's blueprint.

[@kratos2295]

Really good in depth review. Ordered the kit thanks to this review!

[@ZakuAurelius]

You'll really enjoy it!

[@doritori1153]

My father ordered the special version for my birthday. it comes with an 2 LED units (one yellow, one pink) and a special poster from the anime.

[@ZombryaTheDark]

never gave an led a chance. I'll buy this kit and give it a shot. gotta love the OG gundam

[@scarletmeteorc]

After checking the manual, the description on page 5 about the Gatling gun on the chest (part B 46 and A19/A32) says: Use whichever. one you prefer and also kindly labels that A19 is yellow and A32 is blue. Hope that answers your question at 5:40 of this video. :-)

[@flavio3179]

I watched this review a lot of tijes and, after getting the kit for Christmas, I still love it. The sad thing is that the left hand, the first I tried to use, became a real pain. Two fo the fingers came out and are now very loose, and the ball supposed to attach onto the arm also came out, so it's really difficult to rotate Tha hand without any problem. But after all it's a really nice kit and your review helped me a lot, as every video you make Zak. Keep up the good work! 😉

[@joeydahl9594]

I think this is the first master grade that I got (though I could be wrong since I got the Crossbone around the same time) and I absolutely love it. That said another version of this Gundam that I have that I also highly recommend is the Rx-78-02 One Year War version. It has an absolutely pitiful range for the splits, but other than that it is fantastic. One of my favorite features about the kit is that the inner leg frame is more or less one piece and has little working plastic pistons. It is such a small feature but I really love it. Also the Beam Saber blades have a slight curve to them which is nice since I have the origin version and the 1/144 revive version of the RX-78-02 and they both have straight blades.

[@Gumi_wuewuewue]

lol. Ive been building gunpla for years, but never had the original RX-78-2 Gundam.

[@makotowaru8877]

Loui Paran i feel that

[@waveemann8857]

Do you mean like, just an RX-78 kit or do you mean the very first MG of it? Because that kit is worse than the Wing 1/100s haha.

[@surtrxoxo]

Loui Paran Same. You either have to be an OG or you need at least 8,9 months of Gundam experience to even consider getting the RX.

[@friedtofu4568]

Boo!! Get an RG RX 78-2

[@thatonequeergundamfan71]

hey I new to the hobby my first build was the barbatos lupus rex and the gouf but I always wanted the original rx-78-2

[@gundamgamer7060]

I had an amazing stroke of luck today. I managed to buy this kit online for only $8.79. Even if the gundam itself is fragile, it'll still be worth it for my first MG kit.

[@bruhhhhhh08]

are you sure that isn’t a typo

[@nu_keys]

It seems the blue shoulder gun piece is for the OVA version, while the yellow is the original design from the manga.

[@kylemahabir2085]

This was my first version of the grandaddy gundam, and by god did i love this thing

[@oliverkloshophdndrecords50]

My first RX 78 02 also. And i love it.

[@FortressWise]

Great review! I'm looking forward to building this! As for your question about the yellow gatling gun piece, it's one of the more iconic parts of the manga design. What's interesting about this MG design is rather than being a straight up adaptation of the manga RX-78, it seems to remove the more outlandish elements (like the weird 5 thruster backpack) in favour of traditional ones whilst retaining the iconic parts of the manga design (like the other Beam Rifle, cannon, upside down shield, etc.) - a sort of compromise between the manga version and the original anime version we are all used too. Which basically sums up the anime adaptation of The Origin as well! I wonder if we will see this in the OVA?

[@ZakuAurelius]

+FortressWise Awesome, thanks for that info!

[@ralphshiela603]

i thought this kit was very boring to build cuz of the small amount of plates. . . But im surprise of the build process, and the articulation was very good and new. . . . Thumbs up for this kit !!! :-D

[@Mech45pro]

The orgins version of the gundam rx-78-2 is the definitive version for me I have had this kit since it came out and still think it's one of if not the best version out there

[@LatencyProblem]

Dammit, Im so envious of this! Cant wait to get mine next week

[@AnakinSkyobiliviator]

In the manga, didn't the shoulder cannon attachment come with a third thruster bell on the backpack?

[@wadebanditluvilla8927]

that plastic bandai uses for the frame are stretchy type of plastic even after having stress it stays durable and didnt seems to break eventually compare to normal plastic.means that material is created to have stress as plastic undergo certain pressures.it goes white but it wont break as long as u are careful.

Ya have to earn your MG RX-78s. Gotta build the 1.0 MG first and work your way up so you suffer as we have suffered.

[@thelorewarrior2929]

i think the gimmick on the shield, the top peice is meant to be used as the handle when he's holding the shield upside down. that way you won't have to remove the handle.

I was wondering why I like this kit. Then I realize it was the eyes or the overall head that spoke to me.

I'd love to se this with all of the new gear painted up with the RX-78-1 gundam colours.

great review! i used to build sd and hg and now im moving to mg. i want to start my mg collection with the rx78 and i really like the ver. 3.0 design but after watched this review I think this one is also good. what should i pick, this one or the ver. 3.0 ? thanks.

thx zaku your vids are very helpful i recently got 1/100 barbatos

Zak, how do you get the hands to articulate all the way? The fingers pop out on mine when I try to bend at the first knuckle. This is my first MG, so I don't know how the hands work yet.

[@ZakuAurelius]

Ben N just have to be careful with it I guess.

[@true_neutral3378]

Apply clear nail polish or super glue to the joints to make them tighter. DO NOT STICK THEM TOGETHER just wait for them to dry completely and then put them in.

This will be my 2nd gunpla kit 😎

[@buddykiller]

re: stress marks; i'm building this kit right now and have found that a lot of the peg joints are too tight, i've been sanding them down

[@kytis13]

the longer pegs in the grey piece for the shield are likely small guns on the shield. Maybe they stick out further when being used?

[@anonymousli4204]

[@DragoonMS]

The second rifle reminds me of the Zaku II "Zaku Machinegun" at the handle. I like this...it's an interesting change!! The shield mechanics seem annoying, though...I think that I'll stick to the RX78 Gundam ver.Ka and the RX78/C.A for my MG iterations. And that second effect part...I thought that was for the Vulcan cannons on the head. D'oh!!

[@HybrydATP64]

This gundam did have a core fighter in the manga but only until they got to jaburo where it was modified and had the core fighter installed

+fuzzyhawk down More MG kits from The Origin would be amazing!

[@alexelam1127]

It would be!! I hope it would be like the manga version with the back mounted ammo drum for the machine gun, and the various small guns on the arms/body. Although an Ortega type with massive heat hawk would be equally dope.

How does the 2.0 hold up to the newer kits like the 3.0 or the origin

[@northdakotabeast1547]

white tab on bazooka is a carrying handle for when the weapon isn't holstered and being carried on hand. Not really practical for gunpla, but it can be nice when you're lugging 60+ pounds of weight irl

[@ZakuAurelius]

+Francis Nodora That's just up to you, go for whichever design you like more! The Unicorn can be a little more tricky to work with, but if you prefer the design then you'll enjoy it fine!

[@davisgwynn4295]

That shield part seems like it's part of a transformation like the RE-GZ or it could be storage for the hyper bazooka or ammo. No idea just some speculation.

[@jaycolewwe]

maybe for the scene when amuro first does atmospheric entry, so it has 2 places to hold it from

[@Armageddon-yt3so]

+ZakuAurelius that's a cool looking kit. besides this kit what are some other Master Grades you would recommend? i want to try one but i'm not sure where to start.

[@obicross]

heard the 3.0 looks nice but you know, kinda loose and kinda hand granade-ish? is that true? is the origin a beter kit? cuz i like the 3.0 look but not sure with that wonkyness

[@drakozero8]

So did you find a way to fix the strange problem in the legs? like is there some kind of modification I can do to stop the stressing??

[@mvs-wg5ol]

Angel Torres just use oil or something to prevent the plastic from breaking

[@forge5435]

I'm not so sure but I'm assuming the switching pegs on the shield will let you hang it on the backpack, where the beamsabers go

[@ZakuAurelius]

+Forgey I don't think so~ But that is a good point, I didn't notice any way to attach the shield to the backpack. That's usually always a part of the RX-78-2 design.

[@JangoTheBlueFox]

+ZakuAurelius the middle part on the backpack doesn't spin around to reveal a peg hole for the shield like on the 3.0?

[@ZakuAurelius]

+Jango The Blue Fox Actually, yes! That's correct. Sorry. I just check it now, you can turn that piece around on the backpack to reveal a peg hole.

[@JangoTheBlueFox]

ZakuAurelius I saw that part had moved slightly in the video and noticed that it was a slightly different color than the rest of the backpack. I was surprised you missed it.

[@ZakuAurelius]

+Jango The Blue Fox Too many things to remember to talk about! Haha

[@vampireslayera]

Just finished this kit last week, The build was so fun! Got me back into MGs. Now i'm trying to decide what to build next, it's a 3 way tie between A Zaku II 2.0, the Hiyaku-Shiki 2.0 and the Unicorn Gundam OVA ver. Any recommendation on which one Zac? it would be my 3rd MG

[@BattleManiac7]

So if someone has never built an RX-78-2 and wants to build a MG one to put on his shelf would you recommend the 3.0 or The Origin? As a gundam fan I always feels like my collection is lacking since it doesn't have a MG of the OG Gundam.

[@ytyler2012]

I haven’t built the 3.0, but every reviewer I watch says this one is better than that. I’m about to build it too to replace my 2.0 which was a very anime accurate kit, but it’s just bland next to the RG.

The best gunpla ever. Don’t argue

[@QuantaSolace]

I can never decide which RX-78-2 to buy because there are so many versions. I was leaning more towards the RG since the MG 3.0 is just a larger version of the RG just with more problems. However, I might just bite the bullet and buy this kit a few months for now.

[@bunnyfreakz]

+Mr Zark MG 3.0 is solid kit. MG Origin as well

[@QuantaSolace]

bunnyfreakz I've heard mix reviews because of the extra gimmicks. I ended up pre-ordering the Origin version since the store I buy my kits from had a 30% off sale on kits.

[@QuantaSolace]

+Mr Zark I just want to confirm that you do get only one white cover part, so one of the arms will always have the vulcan part. I ended up keeping both vulcans on mine just because I think it looks better with both.

How do you think this compares to the MG RX-78-2 ver 3.0?

[@wallacesnyder9740]

Hello. I enjoy your videos very much. I'm just starting to get into the world of Gunpla and there are so many types of suits and remakes of the same suits. May I suggest that when making a kit review, can you please include the kit number? That way a newbie, like me, purchases the wrong kit... Thank you

[@ZakuAurelius]

+Guy Snyder Welcome to the hobby! I'm not sure what you mean by the kit number? You mean the mobile suit's number (in this case RX-78-02)?

[@MrMekmek29]

is this better than the 3.0?

[@ZakuAurelius]

depends on how you define "better." this kit comes with a second different beam rifle and a few effect parts. both kits are pretty matched in terms of articulation. the 3.0 has a bit more detail and part separation.

[@MrMekmek29]

Sorry I ask a very vague question. Thank you for answering man! Basically for you how was owning the origin different from v 3.0, in terms of poss-ability and overall design.

[@razif6916]

Good base for a ground gundam 2.0..would require 4 units for ez8, GM n sniper lol

[@thomasarcanine]

cool kit, nice review... just one question, can you attach the 2.0's napalm addon to origin's classic beam rifle? I plan to use 2.0's gundam hammer and beam javelin to complete the origin's arsenal...

[@ZakuAurelius]

+Tommy John Alamon Good question! I'm honestly not sure, I haven't seen any info on that and I don't have a 2.0 kit to try it. Sorry! But if it comes down to it you could always modify it to work!

[@thomasarcanine]

+ZakuAurelius thanks for the quick reply... i have 2 2.0s (i have customized the other one in rx-78-1 prototype gundam colors) and i'll probably get this one maybe on the weekend. i just needed some opinions whether origin is worth it (thanks to your review). it just seem the origin kit is a much better option rather than the 3.0 kit to be a successor to the 2.0 kit. anyway thanks for the review and keep it up!!!

[@thespeedster3013]

Does the inner frame the same as the 3.0 version?

[@ZakuAurelius]

+The Pharmacist No, it's an all new frame, with a few parts from the 2.0

maybe that thing with the shield was for storage? like you can put the shield on to its back using that part.? lol

[@LtZerge]

Lorenz Retiro you can already do that. There's a flip-out mount on the backpack that's the same hole type as the forearm one. All the weapons and the shield use the same square peg, so you can mount anything to the arm, waist, or backpack ports. Super handy!
