GUNDAM PARTS-FORMER PERFECTED! | HG Murasame Kai Review

[@Isteak80]

That is the best looking flight form I have seen in a Gundam; it looks like something out of Macross

[@Matanumi]

I sorta prefered the design of the old murasame but this one has wayyy better engineering

[@BrandonTjon]

I really like the Delta Plus

[@ChrisTian-sd5yq]

it looks like Zeta

[@SoulstrikerV]

Makes sense. Despite being one of the oldest transformable mobile suit designs, Zeta Gundam still has one of the most majestic flight forms around. So, using a lot of elements from its design helps a lot. Ever since, they've tried all sorts of ways to transform flying MS. Many end up looking awkward for a flying machine or look ok until you see the mangled robot's face from underneath.

[@ChrisTian-sd5yq]

@@SoulstrikerV wave rider transformation is the best looking next would be the strider mode

[@enricopaolocoronado2511]

We honestly need more transforming Mobile Suits in Gundam. Delta Kai, Union Flag, Arios, and Murasame Kai are proof that they can look really cool especially as model kits.

[@ArchieGamez]

Kyrios my beloved

[@sleepboy1590]

need saviour

[@Thunder_00235]

Imagine the mg version

[@allenwalker50]

i need a MG saviour gundam, not the NG1/100 one TwT

[@Headbringer]

BANDAI, GIVE ME A MG/RG UNION FLAG, AND MY WALLET IS YOURS!

[@marcosdheleno]

to me, the most impressive aspect of the fighter/MA mode is that it actually looks like a jet. as opposed to most other transformable suits, that just look like a folded MS(because that's what they are). so you can present it in MA mode and it actually looks like that's the default mode.

[@MatthewLoh-ru1mw]

Agreed

[@AthrunX23s]

In SEED Destiny they're actually stored and launched in MA mode almost all the time.

[@therestingmitchface6241]

This thing screams Seekers from Transformers, I love it. Can’t wait to get mine

[@ashergibby1874]

Transforming mobile suits and gundams are always my favorite model kits

[@cursodoctrina2141]

so buy mgsd wing zero .-.

[@TheAshlight41]

Best 144 gunpla partsformer still AZ gundam in my heart. It was cool, have two big gun that can slap together, have separated Kneecap, moving and detailed back skirt, and finally have a shield + beamsaber combo in one.

[@jackielee297]

Thought so too

[@Keryaken133]

Murasame Kai, the "Zeta Plus" of Seed

[@bladeazuma]

The base Murasame is already the "Zeta plus" of seed

[@darko7432]

​@@bladeazuma .....Zeta Plus Plus?

[@marcosdheleno]

its funny you say that because the MA mode really reminds me of an "atmospheric version" of the delta plus.

[@Keryaken133]

@marcosdheleno i know, but the tail fin still give me the Zeta vibe but i do agree the ma mode looks quite similar to the delta plus

[@Just.Pamu3342]

6:09 the kneel pose looks really good

[@kolinmartz]

2:05 I mean one design is supposed to be a gritty ground pounder and the other one is an aircraft. It still tracks. Look at how ground vehicles are set up compared to aircraft. One has to be as smooth as they can get away with.

[@Reclosening]

I actually like that they used partsforming for this kit. If they didn't, they would have probably sacrificed a lot of the structural integrity of the kit for the transformation. At least with partsforming it looks near perfect and structuraly secure unlike some kits with a transformation but they either look daft or they're not too strong.

[@LlewelynReswald]

I saw people on reddit that are bitching about it being a partsformer.

[@marcusdion5672]

Instead of Gundariam Tier, the next one should be Newtype Tier

[@vustvaleo8068]

also in SEED lore canon the Murasame line of Mobile Suits are developed from the Eclipse Gundam.

[@dnatal09]

My College Self: I will buy the murasame one day My Present self: Why should i buy the old model if i can buy the improved one? Ah what the heck, i can buy them both on christmas 😁

[@m.ppanca5057]

Simple design + Great articulation = recipe of great HG gunpla

[@user-qg4st8ih1d]

Really looking forward to this kit appearing where I live, love the design! Probably my favourite Gunpla flight form out there. Do really hope we’ll get a Revive version of the original Murasame with the forward-swept wings, but I realise that’s probably wishful thinking.

[@skeetskeet7041]

I feel like this is the first Seed kit that I genuinely vibe with. Like most other kits either feel like they’re trying too hard to be “re-vamped og” or do weird stuff that I don’t really vibe with (like making the wings not actually meant for flight or propulsion but for storing giant gauscannons and railguns) Between this, the Astray, and the Windam I just think the design philosophy for Seed was perpetually stuck between “real robot” grounded designs and “super robot” fuck it we ball designs and it made so many suits go from ‘oh neat’ to ‘oh…neat…’

[@maverick6c631]

12:22 that's a pair of fighter jet extra fuel inspired from real life aircraft.

Can’t wait for Strike Freedom SPEC || A.k.a Cal-Re.A review

Aww you can't have a gerwalk mode anymore like the old Murasame. Also sad it no longer has the landing gear parts for MA mode.

[@AndreaDoesYoga]

Great review, I love the detail on the Murasame Kai! 🤩👏

[@MechaGaikotsu]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@cursodoctrina2141]

we are so near from the mgsd wing zero release so, mecha gaikotsu, prepare to spend some bucks

[@victoriazero8869]

Holy, that is absolutely beautiful. My only wish was that they should have VF-19's variable sweep wing.

[@kickingmagpie]

Neither this nor the EX were on my mind to buy. After seeing the EX with the murasame head...I NEED THEM

[@Keryaken133]

I just ordered one today, my favorite ms in seed freedom, ive been waiting a long time for this

[@elchito3]

Hope they use this kit as a basis to do a new HG Murasame Kit.

[@Mobius_118]

Probably not. After the Akatsuki incident, they're probably not too keen on reviving old kits (especially considering how dirty they did the Buster).

[@robinrondo]

Amazing Flight Form 🔥🔥🔥

[@someone.............]

This would look even more awesome in the Zeta plus C1 paint scheme!

[@nill9120]

Can't wait to see this channel reviewing the RG nightingale

[@Amatsaru29]

Still stand by the 80's 1/144 Zeta Plus model kit with a functional transformation while still being stable. Bandai has the resources to make a modern HG fully transformable without parts forming.

[@capebarat4961]

Wow it looks like an MC suit. The movie designs are pretty great!

This is the one I've waiting for. I have the old murrasame but became brittle and some parts broke so i combine the standard and Andrew custom to have a one functional

[@therest9281]

i like how they learn they mistake with zeta arm and change it joint so it more sturdy mine shoulder joint already broke so i just straight up change it myself

[@A.CMc1997]

Hang on.... I remember watching this yesterday. Is this a re-upload? 😅 Edit. My bad. It was the building video. This is what I get with a loss of sleep and working a night shift ahahaha

[@mrdude88]

I wish this kit could’ve included 2 chest so you don’t have to parts form the chest too like the side skirts. But pretty cool HG.

[@SoulstrikerV]

It looks cool in its flight form, but does it make sense for a mobile suit to have tons of large missiles hanging off of its wings without cover? With jets, it makes sense since they're always flying fast when in combat, and they can deploy the missiles faster. But mobile suits need to transform depending on the situation, and if they still have those missiles hanging on in humanoid form, it'll easily give the opponent a bright idea. Bright, in more ways than one.

[@ohshiit8932]

Wish they remaster the M1 astray as well with the flight pack

[@anzero5762]

Do you think they can perfectly this kit in the future?

Very Zeta-like. Reminds of of the Zeta and AZ kits.

"what world are we living in right now?" the normal world of Gundam... where grunt suits have always been cool since forever?

[@gamerkingdom1442]

I’m normally not a fan of PARTS FORMERS. If I want a Transforming Mech, it should be THE WHOLE MECH. (I admit, I’m picky.) but I admit, the DESIGN is near perfect! Especially since it gives me such ZETA VIBES.

It’s not a Gundam, just a mass-produced mobile suit. The killer design and the V-fin give it such an awesome Gundam flair that it’s hard to believe they’re mass production mobile suits

Man, this is so disappointing. The kit is awesome in both forms, but the clean transformation isn't there, so I keep having this feeling that the kit isn't accurate or complete. Which makes me conflicted, because BOTH forms looking SO GOOD. I love the sleekness and simplicity of this.... But I refuse to believe that Bandai/Namco couldn't have done a more clean conversion kit, like they did with Immortal Justice and Rising Freedom. It's a shame, because ALL of the kits from SEED Freedom look GREAT despite being HG.

[@eight-cloudspurple5871]

From a few clips here on utube, it seems the Murasame Kai uses a transformation similar to the Zeta, and 1/144 scale transformable Zetas have... less-than-glowingly-positive reputation.
