548 - HGIBO Grimgerde (OOB Review)

[@wasdwazd]

I'm really loving this Valkyrie swords. And I agree, that color works just fine on the blades.

[@wasdwazd]

*those

[@jgaringan]

+Kyle Morgan Too bad the Graze Ritter's sword isn't molded in a similar color though

[@wasdwazd]

jgaringan The Ritter's sword is actually supposed to have a regular shiny steel colored blade.

[@jgaringan]

+Kyle Morgan Yeah, but you'll see in the Ritter's review that it's entirely molded in black and in one piece

[@wasdwazd]

jgaringan I saw. Sad.

[@djeurosham]

This was my first Gundam, which I built a few weeks ago. Glad to have found this hobby. I picked it up randomly at a book store. I've build two more and have some coming in the mail. Can't wait to get into advanced techniques.

[@ZakuAurelius]

Welcome to the hobby! Be prepared to spend all your money! haha

[@rizl_ini]

ZakuAurelius My grimgerde does not stand well and do not balance well.Do you have any idea what happen to my kit.

[@OneEye-gh2jo]

Riz 27 YT the joints on the legs are probably loose or its just the way you stand it up

[@vivisect53]

So I'm gonna guess you now have about 2 dozen kits now....lol

[@Bahamut8937]

@@rizl_ini Yeah, dont play with it.

[@therestingmitchface6241]

This and the Hyakuri are my favorite mobiles suits from the IBO line so far. This one looks amazing

[@ZakuAurelius]

The Hyakuri is also very nice!

[@jirehjirehjirehjireh]

I just got this kit and aboslutely love it! The articulation is my favorite part. I don't think I've ever seen single-joint elbows bend this far. p.s. great review motivated me to get this kit

[@gabdlc_]

the thing I like about this other than the whole thing, is it doesn't need IBA packs to be show accurate.

[@niallmcphillips2917]

your profile picture😂😂

[@alvarodiogolopessousa5911]

well , it didn't had much weapons , so there isn't any issues with the absence of accessories

[@gunplaray7876]

I was so happy to find this kit at my local hobby shop and out of sheer happiness I bought it.

[@thedrewexperience-w3l]

So far this is just the one I have from IBO kits. Cool kit, easy to build, nice articulations, and very posable.

[@prince7am]

This kit and Barbatos are the two best HG mobile suits of IBO. Great video lad

[@jennifermichel441]

dude gusion rebake is made out of extra barbatos parts so gusion rebake

[@hoebread7584]

Tanveer Chahal gundam bael?

[@Bahamut8937]

Lupus is the best hg PERIOD.

[@BasilHerb]

This kit is one of my favorites, its design reminds me of 00 Thrones and the Arm/Shield/Sword part so reminds me of Exias GN Blades. Find it sad however that it isnt on like a rotation part, which means you have to manually plug the Swords around for that GN Blade feel. Otherwise Talgeese shoulders and the IBO Style just make it a ten out of ten design for me. I bought this kit already and I cant wait for it to arrive :D

[@justinesteban5770]

lol for me it reminds me of susanowo, that one grunt suit piloted by graham.

[@zosahaal103]

Love this kit I can't wait to buy it and paint somehow)

[@skuffles]

I chuckle every time you say "GRIM grrrrrrd" hahaha "A vast me hardeez... it be a GRIM Grrrrrrd approachin"

[@gundamassassin241]

Gotta Love that the Grimgerde is cooler than Gundam Bael.

[@mohdzamribinmaidin601]

OMG!! I am gettin that Grimgerde!!!!!!!! Thank You for this Review~

[@AlexanderEddy]

I'm sure we're going to see people do this in a medieval knight color scheme! Great review as always!

[@LlewelynReswald]

Someone already did that. I saw pics at GundamGuy

[@fnargler]

Love the Grimgerde design. Definitely getting the 1/100.

[@rambutan007]

This gundam looks like egyptian Anubis Like it! Thanks for review!

[@garrettiverson6355]

Great review ;) I plan to buy this in 1/144 and 1/100. It's just sooo cool! May we pray that Bandai releases an IBO hands option set...

[@ZakuAurelius]

Really hoping that a future HGIBA set will include new hands...

[@garrettiverson6355]

ZakuAurelius That would be best!

[@GuntanksInSpace]

+Garrett Iverson Highly anticipating and most likely getting the 1/100. The previews for it shown thus far look amazing. I might want to swap out the Machine gun for the Kimaris Lance or something similar if there's an option set for the 1/100 line.

[@kevinkun]

EHRMAHGERD GRIMGERD!!!! I love this kit!!!

[@LlewelynReswald]

The reception of the public for the animé is the same for its Gunpla... Very, very great!

[@thatonephilguy]

Looks fantastic!

[@QuinnInk20]

I just got the Grimgerde Kit today and it is an amazing kit but I find that hid flaw his his little feet which can pose stability issues.

[@gundamgamer7060]

I run into a similar problem with my Io Frame Shiden. No matter what I do, it always ends up standing crooked.

[@bumi2090]

Zack when are gonna review the kimaris trooper?

[@ZakuAurelius]

I just got the kit today, so as soon as I can

[@AQWorldsGalvaprime]

Is there a variant of the Grimgerde that's going to be released soon?

[@ZakuAurelius]

I guess not. I wondered that myself but I think I was wrong.

[@adultsuede4384]

the only probelm i had with this kit was the waist sort of socket being really loose. besides that, this set was really nice to build.

[@thedrewexperience-w3l]

Its not rabbit like head, Its more a resemblance of a Valkyrie Helmet, because Grimgerde is named after to a Valkyrie which this mobile suit has a Valkyrie frame (7) just like gundam frames (72).

[@ZakuAurelius]

+Lunel Andrew Sayon Yes, that's right. But still the rabbit image is easy to connect ;)

[@LlewelynReswald]

The swords and shields reminds me of Exia because it has those configurations, but executed differently. I think I'm not the only one who thinks of it.

[@nomaslami]

Great review! What`s next in IBO kits?

[@ZakuAurelius]

Barbatos Form 6!

[@Fire-bj5vc]

it's missing white color on the pipe of the arms and legs

[@maxbrandt6]

Cool looking mobile suit. It looks like a robotic jackal other then a rabbit.

[@jinwu9423]

I wonder if you can interchange parts with the Graze Kai 2...

[@wasdwazd]

Realistically, you should be able to. The Graze frame is technically based off this mobile suit. I know you'd be able to interchange the shoulders and heads, as well as anything that's on ball joints. Other armor, I'm not sure. I haven't seen the connections on the frame.

[@ZakuAurelius]

I'm sure some parts would be interchangeable just because they all use the same polycaps (but in different areas sometimes).

[@jinwu9423]

+ZakuAurelius cool :)

[@dinosmite3248]

Idk if I want to buy this or gusion rebake full city. This one seems better but then there's space Guts

[@ZakuAurelius]

I prefer the Grimgerde definitely but it’s up to you! Get one now and the other later!

[@jinwu9423]

Gotta love the Tallgeese shoulders :))

[@OshinkoMaki]

The Buster Gundam has the little orange "cheeks" that make it rabbit like. :D

[@ZakuAurelius]

I think that's part of it hey!

[@jameskilts555]

If or when I get this kit, I would probably use one of the open hands from my HG Jesta. Also Zack, I was wondering what kit do you think I should buy? This kit or the HG Barbarous?

[@ZakuAurelius]

I haven't heard of an HG Barbarous, sorry

[@jameskilts555]

+ZakuAurelius oh, my bad, I ment the HG Barbatos

[@ZakuAurelius]

+James Kilts I know, I was just joking ;) I like this kit more than the Barbatos, personally.

[@jameskilts555]

+ZakuAurelius Oh :3 Thx for the recommendation mate.

[@troy.tt_22]

Do you plan on building the Graze Ritter?

[@gunplaray7876]

he most li,ely will sknce he gets all the newest kits from his sponsor

[@ZakuAurelius]

Yep! Just got it in today!

[@ultrameijin9503]

Can you please make a video showing off your collection and where you build your Gunpla?

[@ZakuAurelius]

Coming soon!

[@donaldzuramp4404]

+Ayy Lmao yeah, we've been waitng for that!

[@bng422]

I think a reason why the parts aren't purple is because purple coloring is expensive. Look at the Rosen Zulu for example, that thing came out brown lol. Also, Galio's Schwalbe Graze is p-bandai exclusive.

[@ZakuAurelius]

Huh that's a good point! I never thought of that...

[@choonming7996]

exactly.... that's why I appreciate HG Kimaris so much for the correct color given oob

[@Greyyy2442]

+ZakuAurelius does this gunpla have a bad nubmark, and can you give a recommendation for hg gunpla that good for straight build competition

[@ZakuAurelius]

Hmm there are a lot of recent kits that look great just snap built. Maybe try a Thunderbolt kit?

[@Greyyy2442]

+ZakuAurelius but I must build it fast, the straight build competition is ended I'm 3 hours so I must build a Gunpla straight oob in 3 hours can you give more any recommendations for kits

[@Nexus-bk8cb]

if you want to described the colour of the kit, what will it be?

[@ZakuAurelius]

Nik Aizzat red

[@rizl_ini]

ZakuAurelius Do you think if I panel line it black.It still nice?

[@Nexus-bk8cb]

Riz 27 YT Maybe..it will add some good detail for the kit. also I already bought the kit a few month ago and for me the kit still look like moroonish pink for me,that why I asked about the color of the kit above..

[@Astronopolis]

I panel lined mine in brown, thats what i use for red and yellow and warm colors, its not dark enough to need to use black, I used black on the inner frame, gun and sword handles though

[@alvinshaw33]

I think i want the rebakes legs on the grimegerde.

[@edanyi3619]

Zaku, what gunpla do you like better? Hg grimgerde or hg astaroth

[@ZakuAurelius]

Master Yi Grimgerde

[@edanyi3619]

OMG MY FAVORITE UTUBER REPLIED TO MY COMMENT!!!!!!!😱

[@pedrovillacorta5454]

are all hg gripping hands the same?? or are most of them the same??

[@ZakuAurelius]

Not all the same, but similar. Why?

[@pedrovillacorta5454]

Well, I was wondering, what if I used this kit's swords for another kit, that is a 1/144 scale, but not from the iron blooded orphans set. Thats why I was asking.

[@Errorcutive]

+Pedro Villacorta Idk about ibo kit but all the revive hands can take most of the weapon of any kit.

[@pedrovillacorta5454]

Thanks!!!

[@sohcheefung8073]

how is this hg compared to ng 1/100 ? is there a great difference ?

[@ZakuAurelius]

I compared them and talked about that in my review of the 1/100. Of course there isn't much of a huge difference other than size and price, but there are small differences.

[@sohcheefung8073]

thanks, i just can't decide whether to get the hg or ng

[@LoftOfTheUniverse]

Why isn't there an MG version of this? do we need 3+ default gundam MGs every year?

[@ManectricReturns]

what are everyone's favourite kits so far in this line? :)

[@d10ragingmountain11]

+FullmetalOCE I only have 3 IBO kits (Mcgillis Graze, Gusion, Hyakuri) and the Hyakuri is definitely my favorite. I had fun building it.

[@bsm3891]

mine will be graze ein but for now kimaris trooper and graze(all)

[@jennifermichel441]

reyusei-go and 4th form barbatos wich you can make in the six form kit and the shwalbe graze's hook thing on his arm.but reyusei-go is my most favorite

[@morklee5044]

Kimaris trooper and graze ritter

[@AnnaThomas1234]

What will be your next gundam review????????

[@ZakuAurelius]

HG Dom Test Type, RG Wing Gundam EW, then... Not sure .

[@AnnaThomas1234]

+ZakuAurelius thanks!!!!!!!!

[@yuzumeow]

Which action base is that?

[@rennn4602]

Is it just mine, or does its grip is really weak when holding the sword? I mean I could pose with it just fine, but its weak grip really irritates me

[@Youarekenough]

The IBO line have s little bit of inconsistency, some are tight some arent. Just thicken it with some glue/paint/nail polish

[@rennn4602]

@@Youarekenough I see, thxx for the info

[@bsm3891]

if zaku get a graze EIN, he will know how small are these kits comparing to graze EIN

[@faxisthefox]

this actually reminded me of a fennec fox knight

[@quenniebacho1125]

Random Comment: Hey Zaku, which of these two has the best bunny ears, The Buster or The Grimgerde? ZakuAurelius: Hmmm... I still think the Buster has the best bunny ears. GNX-U02X Masurao: Am I a joke to you?

[@bkebradley]

The head reminds me of those bug-looking transforming mobile suits from Zeta with the German name or whatever.

[@swrodgon]

I have an odd desire to paint one in blue and white for some reason...

[@ZakuAurelius]

Go for it!

[@haleyleyley8951]

feel like it would be better as a lancer
