I would really love to get all the beam effect parts for this suit in Yellow. I think they would contrast beautifully with this pomegranate-pink armor better than the pink beams do. It would also be a cool call back to the Aegis Gundam that Athrun started off with.

with the X-Wing jokes if I remembered correctly in the past when director Fukuda was interviewed he also said he took Star Wars as an inspiration when making SEED with Kira being loosely based on Luke and Cagalli based on Leia, also Shinn Asuka from SEED Destiny is being compared by the Japanese fandom to Anakin Skywalker.

Les goooo new vid!

[@NeoSlashott]

The chest piece looks more angrier than its old one. 😆

[@lecursedturtle9385]

I have a hot take: The Infinite Justice Type II is cooler than the OG. I prefer the more angular and sharper armor, with some callbacks to the original Justice, and some of Orb's design influence on it, which makes sense story wise. I also like the Volantes flyer over the Fatum, it makes the Justice less bulkier, and I like the indirect Star Wars reference too, and that it's also based on the Ootori Striker pack. I think it mainly stems with the fact that this version of the Justice has more Orb influence, which makes the best designs of SEED, and you can tell that Athrun and Cagalli are still connected together.

[@TapuMacky]

Chances are high now that the Destiny Spec II will also be built from ground up

[@HobbyistTheHood]

Mecha is the channel that guide me to choose my gunpla 😂

[@QwErTy-cw6fh]

So what you're saying is: grab the HGCE Infinite Justice, steal this one's backpack and accessories and you will have the perfect Infinite Justice barring the horn beam.

[@gridman887]

Athrun Zala is HIM like bro was kicking ass and taking names

[@VoidTemplar]

X wing seems like a downgrade, because it is technically the development from the ootori pack (but made it less practical). Prefer the Fatum 01. Yea When I get this, I may as well just buy the original IJ and just make it the best justice. just probably just take the normal IJ body and put it on the new limbs

[@FriendlyGaijin]

Yeah you were right. It could cut justice hand if the pilot not careful. And barely can cut but the Gundam hand itself. Also that white stuff on shoulder armor, what is that? Only decorations?

[@VoidTemplar]

@@FriendlyGaijin With the ranged weaponry at the tip of the wings, yea. ur not cutting anything without shredding your wing. Yea the white bit on the infinite justice every since the original was just there. Originially they were boomerangs. However they were given to the destiny for the gimmick. (Like how they just gave the flying bird drong gimmick to the rising freedom. poor athrun suits just a prototype platform.)

[@angelomendoza1174]

The Infinite Justice Gundam Type II was still and always a tandem unit alongside Mighty Strike Freedom Gundam. With the Type II's "X-Wing" backpack was a really cool throwback feature from a "really old movie", like the time we saw Gilbert Durandal's new mobile space fortress Messiah looks eerily similar to Death Star II (with New Genesis for a Turbo Laser!)complete with his own Emperor's Throne room!!!

[@BrandonTjon]

[@tuttipuffi1302]

I do miss the day the justice still had shoulder mounted boomerangs

[@zerosen2141]

Now, what we need is an official add-on pack, not for the Cavalier, but for the Z-Gok external armor that hides the Justice II for half the movie.

[@heungwingyip7070]

[@AidansBuildsYT]

Interesting that the knees have that angled peg for the connection because the P Bandai HG Xabungle has the same construction and it really helps with posing on the ground.

[@kaitoyuki]

I think the beam effect for the V fin is too small compared to the anime. It slashed through a mobile suit lol. I think they should've provided a bigger beam effect.

[@zeddoverkill]

[@markanthonyfiguro6933]

They look closer to perfect version with out no sticker need anymore.

[@BLITZKRIEG209]

This should have been platinum tier atleast. It was a bit unfair that he only glazed the articulation part without fully moving all parts. It is the same with the original IJ. And while I agree that the moving buttflap was missing, it is fully compensated by the same swiviling joint. Overall, i guess his review wasn't fully flushed out. A bit of a bummer to say.

[@grip3939]

This just makes me question, where's the HG Aegis revive teased by HG Aegis Knight ?

[@TheSkyHawkMT]

is the old infinite justice somewhat compatible with the old infinite justice? Thinking of mixing it up a bit, buy both and merge the best parts :)

[@chaserobinson4315]

Gai, I don’t know if you’ll read this, but could you do a review on the rgm 79n custom? I was thinking of getting one but I don’t know much about it. Like will the hands actually hold the weapons and what type are they? Hope you do one in the future as a hg or mg.

[@adriflux7704]

I was gonna get this anyway, but this review did get me somewhat excited for it. I was afraid that it was actually gonna reuse old parts, but seeing it’s all new, with a better frame and sharper details, I am liking it more. I do want to equip double shields on the OG and quadruple sabers on the Type II.

Should've tested the kit's shoulder armors and see how far they can fold towards any direction. It's the biggest mystery of the movie, I believe.

[@bladeazuma]

Fun Fact you can use the Infinite Justice's Fatum 01 on the Infinite Justice Type 2

[@a.p.studios8713]

my favorite part about the hgs in seed freedom is that they really innovate on so many things, yet they don't fully make their predecessors obsolete at times Take this ij2; though its the most advanced and modern (and theoretically best) of athrun's hg justices (seriously bandai hg og justic when), it has enough differences to make the older infinite justice revive and the immortal justice plenty good enough as options. Compare this, for example, with what bandai did with the old 90's hg guncannon and the cucuruz doan's island guncannon; the new one almost entirely outclasses the former in almost every way, from surface quality and engineering to gimmicks and articulation, and unless you prefer the older proportions, spray missile launchers, or other such features, then there really isn't a reason to buy the former. Essentially, the origin movie guncannon *replaced* the old hg. Now compare this with what they did with the hg guntanks. While the origin guntank has much more detail, militaristic aesthetics, articulation, and gimmicks, the old guntank is still just as good of an option due to its more compact size, more series-accurate aesthetics, simple build structure, and cannons that can swivel sideways on those pegs, something the origin version can't do. Thus, the origin guntank, while better, made itself another option: it's amazing, but it doesn't make the old one obsolete. Back to the ij2, I personally think each hg ijustice has its own respective merits: - Infinite Justice Revive: Head sculpt (personal preference), green chest accent, separate/combined beam sabers (more stable imo compared to those on my revive sf), and the fatum 01 lifter + backpack tilt upwards to move the fatum - Immortal Justice: Completely unique aesthetics while retaining justice appearance, leaning more towards savior gundam, beam boomerang x2 + Shield boomerang, polarized blue chest accents, darker color scheme, more curved/slender/pointed arms/legs that look very streamlined, almost human-like in some ways - Infinite Justice Type 2: Surface detail, incorporation of elements from both prior justices, more serious and aggressive, yet recognizable color scheme, x wing backpack for custom potential (seriously someone make an alternate y wing backpack for bombardment operations the groundwork's there), improved leg articulation for better leg blade movement, combining beam sabers (no need to replace parts to combine), sleek immortal-esque limb shapes with infinite justice features, actual alternate hands, polarized beam shield, better engineered beam boomerang storage (it legit killed me on the original how loose it got), unique hinged head blade that deviates from previous justices and adds more melee arsenal, and THE POWER OF GOD (kira lol) AND ANIME (you know what i mean) ON HIS SIDE! edit: it is interesting to note that since the og ij was based on the justice knight, *technically* the justice knight / injustice weapons lifter unit cape can work on the ij2 for a more regal look like a paladin defending his princess (if i said this in olofat cagalli would legit body throw me out the back window fresh prince style lol)

[@HidaAtarasi]

The inner construction looks very similar to the internal structure/engineering philosophy of Gundam: The Origin.

[@lonewolf646]

Says that the articulation is limited, but doent show ist

[@alidoucious]

I miss the green lining on the chest part of the IJ. Also from what i remember in the movie there are boosters under his feet

[@marcosdheleno]

i know some people didnt like it, but i found it looked pretty good with that green line. made it pop up more. its kinda interesting how the og justice, the 00 and the type 2 all look very similar, until you really look at them, and notice how diferent they really are. kinda like how the barbatos, the lupus and the rex look similar enough, but are very diferent when you really look at them.

[@mjuneoginn]

The only Justice-type Gundam whose beam saber and tactical range projectile & beam weaponry- requires its Athrun Zala- level/type pilot to have SEED Factor: and Hentai Newtype Factor to fully unleash its weapons… *Pop a lot of 911 Vitamin Vs if you wish- just prepare to go cardiac arrest afterwards, should you OD Vitamin V🤪

[@SinigangNaPaniki]

[@EagleBot13]

The joints are specifically designed to make the side kicking poses as natural as possible and they’re excellent for that. Rating a kit’s articulation based on what it isn’t supposed to do seems off.
