Bandai Kaiju No. 8 Kikoru Shinomiya Model Kit 4K Review

[@HansCent]

Just as I am going through my backlog pile, this channel introduces a new awesome kit... don't get me wrong, i LOVE IT !

[@neonsamurai5637]

Why she got eva shoes?

[@AB-wl5ny]

I guess cause studio kara is one of the producers of the anime, also the character is a tsundere so similar to asuka she even has her own version of the line "baka shinji". 😂

[@beastleviath9356]

for the shoulders, it looks like it would’ve been fine if you cut between the letters and the logo so just the logo was on the raised part… so could easily be off base though

[@johnpaulgonzaga5997]

Bandai has to step up cause the trend is going into mecha musume. I got this instead of SHF cause of the potential for customization.

[@user-xq6ii6qk5s]

30 Minutes Sisters and other 30 Minutes Iterations does exist and is compatible with one another. I like them mecha musume too

[@HappyTrain]

This made me realize I need a pencil case rather than just having pens and markers just strewn out all over the damn place. Huh.

[@xnflg3074]

gsi creos (maker of gundam markers) makes topcoat markers in gloss and matte that i use for decal protection. don't need a brush. very cool.

[@ender7910]

These figures so far are consistently great looking.

[@Cherudimgundam]

Another note to AOT fan: Naoya Matsumoto, the creator of kaiju No. 8, has been stated that Kaiju No. 8 was influenced by tokusatsu media such as the Ultraman series, specifically Ultraseven (1967), as well as Shin Godzilla (2016) and Pacific Rim (2013). So if you all are just a cry baby of AOT fans as disliking about kaiju no. 8 with the reason of jelousy, i'm apologies as saying this but.. i will said this.. kaiju No. 8 is much different than AOT, so don't comparing it as complain this thing again.

[@GuiltlessGear]

AOT has fandom beef? why?

[@soacious3917]

As a tiny representative of the AOT community, Kaiju No. 8 slaps 💥

I just got my first Gundam and I’m about to start building! Edit: it was amazing I’m getting another tommorow!

[@alfeaffable9254]

Oooh great to see more of this line of plamo

[@angelarch5352]

This kit looks amazing! Love it!

[@NeoSlashott]

Imagine applying kit decals as putting decals on glass mugs before coating it. Simple way to put it. heheh

[@kramnhoj42]

I just got mine, didn't have any problems with waterslide decals for the eyes but definitely screwed the waterslide decals for the axe.

[@DRRC48]

Is it compatible with 30 minute sisters

[@Delfydoo]

Kaiju No.8 was a ride for me, and these model already pique my interest, probably planning to buy them soon, Thanks for the review Mecha. I wonder if you ever get your hands on another Ultraman Suit, specifically Ultraman Suit Jack, I've seen it has alot of good weapons

[@christianvacchelli1953]

ok, I'm really impressed by the color accuracy of this kit

[@sinistermalmente]

A semi matte paint finish is called satin finish

[@aokihax]

Love the detailed build

[@aroncheek5092]

You used to collect or you still collect Warhammer?I used to paint Warhammer in my teens which probably only lasted a few years ,I built a few aircraft in my teens, then I started building cars 10-15 years ago, started building and painting gundam 3yrs ago and building and painting miniatures about a yr and a half ago, I now have a backlog for them all so no fear of getting bored 😂

[@emboli]

Is this compatible with the 30 minute sister line? The head and face looks pretty similar and might be interchangeable?

[@MrSaturn7085]

Use some softener with those water slide decals - Bandai decals tend to extra thick (though not always). Very lightly rolling or blotting a cotton swab over them after they're in position is a good way to get a better result. A super-fine point set of tweezers is much better than an X-acto blade for placement; Dumont tweezers are the best (about $30/ea.) and often used by watchmakers, but if you drop them once, they're toast.

[@user-qs4qo1qv2z]

I wonder if Bandai is going to make the other male characters into figure-rise too.

[@quasistellar]

Probably not, or pbandai if at all. Way more money in pandering to weirdos lol

[@mrdude88]

@@ChrisTian-sd5yq I wouldn’t mind if they did P-Bandai since it doesn’t cost anymore than retail.

@@mrdude88 woah, gunpla on your country looks like cheap

[@ry0usama511]

Would the weapons somehow fits HG or RG plamo though? I had some ideas for Kaiju x Eva stuff

[@jackrylebonclaw7270]

The size of the slot in the hand looks about the same. Even if it doesn't work straight out of the box it's not going to be far off, so you should be able to make it work with some filing and/or bulking up with pla-plate or such. Kotobukiya do some nice weapons in their Modelling Supports Goods line too, including some very military-style rifles, and a big axe, though not quite as lorge as Kikoru's 😅

[@wahyudil7911]

nahhh, no need, ... I used Mr.Hobby Super SMOOTH Clear Spray .... the result is perfect .... enough for me

[@TDS118]

With how Bandai is going with these anime kits, I wonder if it’s possible for Bandai to remake the SAO Asuna

[@vustvaleo8068]

twintails axe-chan.

[@neontorabisu9470]

5:19 What's the name of that tool you use to hold the parts in place while you put on the water decals? I really gotta get one of those! This kit looks awesome, and im definitely gonna get one when I can

[@sageperkins4367]

Unrelated to this model but a friend to this channel. I'm new to gunpla & picked up some gundam markers. While building the Master Grade Death Scythe I was using the silver marker to color the EXO frame an attempt to give it that Chrome metallic feel underneath the armor panel. This is something I was using to speed up because in the past I've used necron compound from Citadel paint...mind you no issues. However while using the gunpla or Gundam marker, it started eating the soft plastic joints that held the arms into the chest like acid. It was like spring holy water into the armpits of a demon lol. Any tips on how to Source these new parts. Or has anyone been in the same boat and come up with a different solution can I just order a new model and never touch this wicked marker again ( metallic Chrome gunpla marker)

[@justgaming9378]

I regret passing on that, i keep seeing sold out on sites

[@Eucep]

Yeah gonna sand down those spots on the shoulder when I get her.

[@viperson9818]

I definitely think Bandai is catching up to kotobukiya. But i don’t think they’re on the level of kotobukiya just yet. To me Bandai is the budget and kotobukiya is the premium. But this one is a really good figure. Top quality if it atleast came with atleast another face print US retailers sell this for a whopping $50

The kits might be better then thr figuarts. The figuarts have limited articulation and for some dumb reason they couldnt give them usable pistols

[@kenji_4_kids]

Nice vid can you make a video of HG 00 xn raiser can you mecha😅

[@LPTheGas]

Hey Bandai, now that you're making these really good human figure kits, can you PLEASE revisit One Piece? The Luffy you did before is hard to find, expensive when you can, and kinda ass. Plus no Zoro, Sanji, etc. to go with, or villains to pose them fighting (Doflamingo plz).

Setsuna is mid, I want Char. We aren't getting either though, only generic animu girl kits.

[@karldonor2370]

nice

[@RChannelst]

Cool

[@ProtoAlpha]

The kit looks awesome! But to comment on the character herself, I've seen this same character 1,000 times in my years of consuming media. I'm glad her cringey drama doesn't take up too much attention.

Worse character in the series. Too many anime girls kits also, but I get it, that's where the market is, anime girls, unless it's DBZ. I want some kits for characters like Char or maybe some kits for some jojo characters or stands.

[@KirbyNPenguins]

46 seconds and no views, bro has fell off 🙏🏻

[@Rexbaxrimwelltonrizzman123]

True😔

[@DamnedInBlack92]

Views are likely low because it’s not a gunpla.

[@Smilomaniac]

Easily the worst character of the show. Serves no purpose, is painfully and pointlessly hostile and her strength makes it all a clown show, reducing the impact of the other characters.

[@sanictheedgehog]

She made it really hard to read/watch the early parts of the series. All it was was her being a perfect arrogant prodigy while the MC just got constantly dumped on. I understand not making your MC over powered and letting them have flaws, but you need some kind of payoff instead of the MC constantly being the butt of the joke and never having their moment. Some kind of cathartic moment were the MC finally rises above it and decks someone in the face. It took Kaiju No 8 too long to reach that point I think, overall I do like the series but it's my biggest complaint about it.
