[@ramadeaadrindrata5128]

Fun fact: the HG G-Self limited articulation actually perfectly represent the actual anime accuracy because the G-Self actually never shows much high range of articulation himself. Also, if you want to improve the articulation you can cut off a little bit part in the forearms and behind the knees because the HG G Self actually have a double jointed elbow and knees but hindered by the design of the suit.

[@Akonocon]

This gunpla is cool I may buy it

[@drakozero8]

Any remedy for the no thigh swivels?

[@ramadeaadrindrata5128]

@@drakozero8 you can cut the armor parts covering the upper thigh right around the hip joints so it won't cover the joint and let the thighs rotate freely. I personally only remove a little bit of the inside and back armor to allow around 45 degree outward rotation while retaining the thigh solidity. Yes I did cut them all to allow 360 degree rotation but it compromised the solidity of the thighs connection because the male peg from the upper thigh joint is not long enough.

[@kazuyakenzaki1320]

​@ramadeaadrindrata5128 could you post a video detailing what you did to improve the articulation?

The first thing that popped into my mind when I saw your video was Touma Aizen's Gunpla from the Gundam Breaker Mobile Game.

[@megatron8449]

Same here, you could probably make one, if you use the clear parts from the original g-self.

[@leviacosta1134]

A suggestion for a future review: I've heard that the MG Exia reprints are actually more stable than the original due to different plastic. And not many people are covering it since it isn't widely known. Not only would I like to see a review from you on the figure, but I'd like to know if that rumor is true.

[@rejectedmind-1173]

Where have you seen any word of this? I have found 1 video from Prine I searched for after seeing this comment, but can't find any confirmation or how to know if you are buying a new one vs the original 09 variant. I would love to finally give it a chance as I love the design, but currently chose to go with Amazing Exia over the other variants.

[@muisverriet]

That's not true. I have one of the reprints anf it's absolutely horrible.

[@leviacosta1134]

@@muisverriet to be fair it's just a rumor I heard as I've been looking to get one and have been looking at reviews and comments from people who've recently made one. I also don't want to wait a few years for a 2.0. So if its shit, its shit, maybe I can fix it with glue and some elbow grease.

[@scizorlord5126]

Your explanation of why you like beam tonfas so much makes me think of the rationale someone might use to explain why they're a nudist.

[@tereatyer]

Technically the main reason that there's like no UC suits that have built in beam rifles (and sabers) is because, they usually actually do have a separate power system, due to legacy design jank, from early gundam engineering logic (limited reactor output). The Unicorn Gundam is the best example of this, with it's heavy Beam Magnum and those thick massive E caps, but most UC (and thus probably RE) suits do have their own generators. edit: the main exception would be the integrated launchers on guncannons, ZZ variants, and psychos. Also VSBR type systems (like on the F91) in late UC

[@ralfsstuff]

What a great evil looking Gundam!

[@varietyspark7476]

Hey mecha, there is a very simple mod that I learned with the g-self to make the arm bend a lot farther and it would probably work on the g-else too, all you have to do is shave a little plastic of the arm by the elbow and it does wonders

I own HG G-Self and the part on the shoulder came off easily. Once I played with it and, without my realize, the parts fall off.

So who's planning to make Touma's MS with this guy's parts?

[@RamirodeSouza]

Ah, yes. The G-Self. One of the many main suits waiting in line for the MG treatment. Changing topinc, anyone knows if beam sabers (or energy weapons in general) get power from the MS o if they have a battery? I'm guessing it varies from series to series. Just finished watching Gundam X and there was a scene where an MS got stabbed and the beam sabers stayed power on even after the attackers let go of them.

[@archhyberion]

This kit will bash nicely with the Vual, one has looks the other has good articulation

[@altmaster8973]

Reason why there are beam saber handles: more control, you can easily threaten the enemy, And it makes you look more like a bad ass

Normally the stickers would be a deal breaker, as it was with the gself. But the aesthetics are good to me. While the posing is limited in the legs, it’s good for what it does. Looking forward to getting it.

[@NeoSlashott]

It does show altogether with Shining Break at the BDivers final ep. And I spotted a Nobel suit with Talgeese legs. xD

[@TheGhostRydr]

I love this design, hell swap the pink for neon green and it looks pretty close to my custom ms from Gundam Breaker 3. The whole aesthetic reminds me of Tron and I'm obsessed with the Tron aesthetic. Despite the limited poseabillity, I'll have to pick this one up. I'll just be sure to put it on a stand as it looks pretty great like that.

[@derekmeyers1467]

After watching this review a few times, I just had to get this Gundam! ... And then I turned it into a G-Else/G-Self hybrid.

[@OuroborosChoked]

I would recommend the G-Self. It looks great, especially if you have some basic paint markers (red, black, and yellow are all you need... maybe white for the hands, too). Super nice build. Very few obnoxious / thick nubs. Almost all the nubs are super small and out of the way. Massive props to Bandai for the engineering of that mold.

As cool as forearm mounted beam sabers are, the standard handheld ones have the advantage of being used as thrown weapons. Unicorn probably has the best setup with 4 sabers and 2 being usable as tonfas.

[@GNLockonStratos]

U forgot the Exia/00 and all their variants.

[@rokushou]

@@GNLockonStratos AFIK the Exia/00 do not have any beam sabers that can be mounted to the forearm keeping the hand free. They do have lots of swords though , which can all be thrown.

[@yoohootube12]

[@highhunter1st]

If you have leftover parts please give it a go to see if we get a full ms.

[@chinzynator]

I have the HG G-Self, and made plenty of mods to make it move better: Cut holes in the hips to give it the splits and some rotation cut a bit off the forearm to allow almost 135 deg bends nothing much, but it just gives the G-Self/Else a bit more articulation. If you're up to it, you can saw the thigh armour into 2 pieces like how the Robot Damashii legs work, and this gives it almost free movement like other modern HGs

[@ryuuohdeltaplus7936]

I did the same as you did, but I went further and trimmed off parts of the rear leg armor meeting the knee joint and carved a new place for the rear sticker so that the feet could double bend better

[@ThatOneLegoshiCoser3209]

Ngl ill save my money to buy this bad boi for christmas

[@0Defensor0]

It seems like you can make a black G-Self, unfortunately without equipment. Those blades on the arm were originally part of the flight pack, but you can't build that with the leftover pieces, you would need the missing parts of runners C and E, as well as runner A2. But you need to build the Perfect Pack version of the G-Self sometime, and while doing that you also need to get a UV light, to enjoy that kit in full glory! With the foil pink stickers, the G-Else got a downgrade.

7:17 It's more than a little bit of a bait-and-switch, it's the textbook definition of one. That's not a picture of the anime version, it's a picture of the actual model that's supposed to be in the same box. It's the most straightforward kind of false advertisement: literally lying to you directly on the packaging of the product in question. If it wasn't so insignificant an item, it'd easily be prosecutable. It's crazy how easy it is to break the law with impunity when the customer's loss is small enough to not be worth getting legal over.
