512 - HGIBO Gundam Kimaris (OOB Review)

[@GameAndMusicNerd]

I don't really give any craps about seam lines. except if I enter the GBWC, I probably wont give any craps about seam lines

[@SSJHEW]

The Kimaris' design kind of reminds me of a flying beetle. Very into it! One of my favorite designs in a while.

[@ZakuAurelius]

+Sean Steve Indeed, it's insect-like!

[@JCth-zz4uo]

Yo this is my very first Gundam kit that I got and I've been a huge fan of them since I was just a kid, I used to have like they're already made kid action figures but this is my actual first scale model and I'm having a really hard time especially since it's my first one but I really like this model, I just need huge pin pointers since the instructions are in Japanese

[@therestingmitchface6241]

I can't take the head seriously after you mentioned the bowling pin hahaha

[@jinwu9423]

After seeing the last pose, I kinda like this kit now :)

[@ZakuAurelius]

I know, right?

[@jinwu9423]

+ZakuAurelius Gets me excited for season 2 :)

[@nightlock826]

Give it the back skirt of Kimaris Trooper and you have a iron blooded orphans Quebely

[@jaketheberge1970]

This reminds me of the Iron Monger from the First Iron Man.

[@emmansumalabe8057]

Nani?

[@warpath16]

just get this now.. thanks for the review :)

[@monitatahalea7700]

already bought this kimaris yesterday!

[@Brotherhood_Knight-Miku01]

Gundam AGE's Baquto came to mind when I saw this.

[@earllawrenced.marquez1223]

I think that the Kimaris is a good gunpla for what I am thinking for a custom for my Strafe Gundam

[@hiruma4142]

A Seven Stars or Gjallarhorn's Marking Seal would look pretty cool on this guy's torso!

[@earllawrenced.marquez1223]

I just need some paint,range weapons and other stuff to get and do to what exactly im thinking of but the kimaris looks easier than it looks to my opinion

[@AnTran147]

I'm still not much of a fan of the Windex spray bottle looking head, but the rest of the design I've started to really like. I'll get it, but that head will always look weird to me. I probably won't get the Trooper, but I'll be getting Vidar and the new "Final Battle" version as well.

[@suitamin]

HAHA I like those seamline pointing sfx xD

[@maliff88]

Is there any reason why they made the combat knife holder a separate part? I mean if there is no other equipment using that attaching point, probably could just glue it together before painting it.

[@TheKing-qz9wd]

If it came with a set of hands made at an angle at the wrist, it would be even better I think.

[@earllawrenced.marquez1223]

its good I like the kimaris when it was first released but since it is 2017 there are more of it but the kimaris vidar i don't like it I like the trooper and this version better and since theres the gunpla evolution project I will buy the zeta gundam or use the lightning zeta and customise this with that and to top it of I could use the back skirt of the kimaris trooper and use another gunpla kit but i dont know what kind but this will take me a lot of time but im hoping I could pull it off

[@SpiralOther]

Neat review I hope you review the new barbatos

[@Erdrick68]

I literally only bought this kit for the lance for a kit bash i'm doing.

[@Arrowdodger]

Kind of makes me think of Frieza, or the Gyan.

[@ZakuAurelius]

+Arrowdodger The love child of Frieza and Gyan...

[@BushidoHead]

Hi...ZakuAurelius I like your review on the Kimaris Gundam that Slash Disk on the shoulders looks great and especially the Gungnir(Giant Lance)...most awesome weapons in IBO series so far, Anyway I just wondering what is your next IBO kit review Gusion Rebake or Grimgerde?.. Thanks ^_^

[@ZakuAurelius]

+Dennison Lanon Ryusei-Go is next! Then 1/100 Schwalbe Graze, then Rebake~

[@gunplaray7876]

even while watching this im still kinda on the fence with this kit. if the shoulders didnt have those flal thins then maube I might consoder getting it.

[@geoffreystorckman8]

Im glad im not the only one who got some form of Physalis vibe from the Kimarsi! Oh, Zaku, do you think that the Ryusei-go (Graze custom II) looks similar to the Gerbera Tetra?

[@ZakuAurelius]

Hmm I guess the shoulders are kinda similar, and it's red. But other than that not really

[@Ming1975]

Yup. A sleaker GP02.

[@BKphanom]

Is it just me, or is the hg kimaris' chest piece fuc*ing awesome to build??

[@ZakuAurelius]

lol, I guess so?

[@BKphanom]

ZakuAurelius Well unlike most ibo gundam the chest armor of the kimaris doesent just snap on, I just meant the way the pieces lock into place is just so satisfying, its a really nice looking piece when assembled

[@joelroyjamias5367]

woah. awesome intro

[@ZakuAurelius]

+joel roy jamias Thanks!

[@natzbtw]

Which is more nice in detailing? The trooper or this?

[@ZakuAurelius]

+AgarGameTube Mostly the same really.

[@natzbtw]

+ZakuAurelius ok

[@frankreynolds6831]

I will buy this strictly for those legs. 😶

[@anastudioofficial]

I guess all the Gundam frame mobile suit carry a huge melee weapons.

[@radjagurning8756]

gusion rebake only have a riffle (and the big shield of course)

[@Xroslight]

+Radja Gurning it has the halberd/ axe looking thing

[@radjagurning8756]

+Ethyn Trinh I mean if you only buy the gusion rebake itself without the ms option 3 you can only have a riffle and a shield

[@Xroslight]

+Radja Gurning I thought you meant the Gundams signature weapons and not the model kit but yeah you're right

[@radjagurning8756]

+Ethyn Trinh no, I mean the gunpla itself

[@soju7593]

my back piece has a snug fit hahaha

[@Elehk99]

I wish that lance was smaller

[@Coolio_Ash]

where do you get the arm to pose it? I'm looking for one and i don't know what they're called.

[@ZakuAurelius]

+Coolio Ash Huh?

[@TheArbiter1999]

+Coolio Ash Its called an Action Base 2, they're from Bandai and designed for their 1/144 Gundam kits, and you can get them from pretty much anywhere that sells Gundam merchandise like Amazon, Hobby Link Japan, or a local hobby store

[@Coolio_Ash]

oh awesome! Thanks!

[@ZakuAurelius]

+Coolio Ash Oh! Actually that's not an Action Base 2, it's a Flying Base R from Kotobukiya

[@TheBalrogmaster]

what do you use for sanding?

[@ZakuAurelius]

sanding sticks on flat surfaces, sandpaper on curves.

[@TheBalrogmaster]

ZakuAurelius thank you I'm new to this Lol

[@crolodon8024]

Those little hydraulics in the waist are begging for some chrome silver paint..

[@felixn3572]

great kit i also like kimaris, you should wait for 1/100 barbatos form 6 released in april after the hg 144 version

[@ZakuAurelius]

+Felix Susanto Sorry to say, I've seen no official confirmation of a 1/100 Form 6. GundamGuy posted that on his blog but the image said nothing about a Form 6, soooooo. I could be wrong, but until I see something official I'm not getting excited.

[@felixn3572]

+ZakuAurelius ok i see, but i'm very sure ban-dai will make the 1/100 soon

[@GN-Gundam]

+Felix Susanto the 1/100 6th form is confirmed with the mace of the 4th form

[@warrenlam1082]

My back piece that hold the knife doesn't fall off its tight

[@ZakuAurelius]

Heh...

[@storx61]

Hey Zaku, just some feedback for you :) It's just nitpicking but you use "momentarily" too often, and it kinda sounds off based on the word's definition. Perhaps you can just say 'later? Also your reviews are a tad too long but other than that they provide good info :) Anyways, more power to you and your channel!

[@ZakuAurelius]

Thanks for the feedback! I blame my now limited vocabulary on the fact I've been living in Asia surrounded by people who speak no or non-native English, forcing me to simplify my daily vocabulary.

[@fantastiCkiLler92]

The only design I like is the head....Besides that, I think the shoulders shape is weird to look at because all the line is pointing to the ground which make it looks weak at some point and that fat lower legs make it worst. I thought it has a huge thurster inside that fat legs but.....no. Kinda weird that you need to open the legs amour to reveal the thrusters because the frame is also visible....They should have another layer of amour underneath.

[@earllawrenced.marquez1223]

But the design is good and not only the head is the good part but also the torso, I guess the arms without the shoulders,oh and the whole figure is nice for something to be bulky

[@ryanklaassen2124]

Anyone know a good gunpla webshop thats ships to europe for a decent price?

[@kaih5247]

Ryan Klaassen Amazon

[@Astronopolis]

three times you go over how that part falls out. you didnt think glue would solve the issue?

[@ZakuAurelius]

+Astronopolis How which parts fall out? I don't even remember... lol

[@Astronopolis]

ZakuAurelius lol the bit that holds the knife on the back skirt

[@djx3no437]

Is this for male or female??

[@ZakuAurelius]

It's for dogs.

[@kaih5247]

DJ X3NO The pilot is male, But most pilots refer to their MS as "It" so I don't think Gundam really have a gender.. (Except the Nobell)

[@quanganx5466]

Dude, that's sexist (I'm obviously joking btw)

[@GameAndMusicNerd]

u should paint this red and call it the Gundam Kimaris Grimgerde

[@tieuucanh8958]

Last time i was this early,i saw so many early.joke

[@redjack2629]

God I hate the IBO gundam frame SO bad. I 'm struggling SO hard to find one without the up-swinging polycap because it sets the shoulder so far down on the body that it looks stupid without the shoulder armor, or when not straight up and down.
