The three of them look like powerpuff girls POWERPUFF GUNDAM GIRLS

[@amazingstudios7889]

A funny custom they would make

[@notdanish3031]

Lol

[@agentslapshocker]

they reminded me of the protagonist spts from layzner. a heavy artillery, green-colored machine, a close combat, red- colored machine, and a balanced, blue-colored machine.

@@agentslapshocker that's pretty much the Impulse too. Strike is kindof with the blue and red switched.

Sadly, marsfour just 1 sword less to be called .. "seven sword".

[@ToxicAtom]

in the anime, the Veetwo and Marsfour armors are equipped to the core gundam that comes with Earthree, meaning that no matter what, you need Earthree for true animation accuracy.

[@kaze6945]

@@557deadpool I agree but that isn't the point.

[@KyanbuXM]

True, and the spares are nice touch to keep them accurate to what you get put of the box. I still hate that the weapons aren't included with the kit. Which looks like that might be the case for all of the Core Gundam Planet System Units.

15:30 And now it's starting to all make sense now. I think I know where they're going with Core Gundam. Probably getting a "Perfect Strike" like upgrade with all weapon packs equiped at once.

[@GenJuhru]

there's already mercuone and still more are coming so i doubt all weapons is a possible feat, probably just a combination of sorts or/of specific planets

[@KyanbuXM]

@@GenJuhru Yeah, I kind of jumped the gun on that comment since Mercuone and a white one (probably Jupiter Five) were already shown/announced.

Waiting for the white unit. Actually, waiting for all releases so I can pick and choose what I want.

[@excalio]

same here

[@alphaprime1000]

Gundam Seltsam and the Mercuone Gundam are the only releases we've anticipated.

[@juancollado5539]

I just got Jupitive and sadly Mercuone comes out afterwards. And the weapons come out a different month so we'll have to wait more time. Mercuone is also just the armor and no Core Gundam which BLOWS!

[@BNuts]

@@juancollado5539 Well, I had no plan to get the Mercuone, although it being the only one so far not to include the Core Gundam is an odd choice for Bandai. I think I'll also skip the Veetwo since both Earthree and Jupitive have more power. I might just get the Jupitive, unless something more versatile comes out.

[@juancollado5539]

BNuts Season 2 is definitely going to release a better one and a new Core Gundam. Runner B1 for all of them starts with number 6 so there should be plans to change the base model. That, and the kinda show it at the end of season 1. I'm actually stoked to see it and build it too. As depressing as Mercuone is, I did get a second Earthree for it.

[@GrieveIV]

The real type colors are the colors on Okowara’s original design, which was not used in the final anime because it looked totally alien and was too complicated for its target audience (kids). The toy company that Gundam was working with at the time, Clover, required that the lead mecha be more simple and more like a super robot, and that the colors be more appealing to children (bright colors)

[@Tfbrave]

I know it'll probably never happen but man, would I love if we got a MG or even a PG of the core gundam and the entire planets system.....

[@niconicokms1424]

tfbrave I don’t even want the planets system I just want a pg core gundam

[@amazingstudios7889]

Or (hear me out) a RG

[@lucasoliveirafrancisco6868]

A pg would probably be quite easy but i think bandai* would only make one if the core gundam gets popular and sells enough

[@superhappydino4038]

A super expensive set with a pg (or rg) of the core gundam and all 5 planets systems

[@Darkrai9087]

Of the various Cores and Core 2s I've build, for some reason, Mars ended up being the most solid and tight, at least when it came to the polycaps. Tight enough, in fact, that I was able to utilize the extra ball polycap to finally fix my Lupus Rex which had an abysmally loose waist!

I was planning to get the marsfour gundam only however after watching the veetwo review and found out that the weapons are sold separately, I suspected the same on marsfour. Thanks for the confirmation.

[@MrMartynwelbourn]

I really prefer the marsfour armor to the others. I have the earthree kit so I think I'll get marsfour kit and both weapon sets! Thanks for the reviews and as always GREAT work!

[@ChojinPatriarch]

"...Waiting for Bandai to announce an orange one to round out the lineup." Well, we are getting the dark blue Merkone (from episode 8) in Febuary as a separate armor pack, but January sees what Hobby Link lists as 'Hero Use New Form.' Unfortunately, it's primarily white.

[@doorbladder5735]

5 months later, and we get the orange one.

[@joshuahensley9395]

I feel like bandai thinks they are doing us a favor letting use get the weapons we want by splitting them up, but I would rather it just be in the same box for the same price.

[@GrieveIV]

Well for me they are doing me a favor. Also I don’t think you’ll be getting it for the same price (prices combined I totally get)

[@557deadpool]

Well I don't give a fuck about the Marsfour I just want the weapons

[@GrieveIV]

557deadpool same man

[@ranid.p.6909]

I think they should have done something like the no-name riffle. Available as an option part, but also part of the astray no name kit.

[@bS0up]

I dunno. You could get the kits with the weapons and backpack options for $14-15, which is what it would cost (for a comparison of a kit that comes with a lot of accessories, 00 Seven Swords is around $17 before shipping), or the option of whatever weapons set you want with the particular kit for around the same amount. At first I was a little baffled by this decision, but looking at the prices, it's what you'd be paying for an HG with this amount of accessories anyway, so no BFG

[@novi228]

You could have also added the beam part to the slash sword duo! Would have looked epic!

[@judeskater93]

Hard time choosing between the earthree and the marsfour, I really love both designs.

[@judeskater93]

Show of hands, who'd love to see the marsfour gundam fighting the gundam schwarzwitter???

Marsfour is my favorite version of Planet System so far and I'm definitely getting this. Too bad the weapons are separate but they're cheap so no problem.

[@dreadpooled]

What is the name of the action base shown at 16:37 for aerial posing? Looks pretty standard but practical

[@calebflournoy8298]

The weapons reminds me of the weapon the astray no-name used in the anime.

[@Astronopolis]

If you consider them as basically extension kits of the earthree it makes sense that you need the earthree beams and rifle to make the set complete, as the other core gundams are just repaints of the original core gundam that you should be using anyway. I imagine the idea is that bandai did so well selling build series expansion sets that they made the main gundam themed as such.

[@justjupit]

i just built mine last night, and the big sword can be fitted with the combined backpack. the verniers from veetwo weapon can be slotted on the opposite side, and to make space use the white backpack of the marsfour/veetwo

[@Harpple.]

does the support units fit to any core gundam or they need the specific core gundam they come with inside the box ?

[@Lans32485]

Really want to get the veetwo and marsfour weapons packs at least. The manuals depict a combined backpack that when added to the Saturnix would make it into one heck of an assault unit.

[@ganyu5768]

mecha, my marsfour gundam's shoulder part is really loose. it won't fit properly in the marsfour unit and also on the actual core gundam. any ideas to fix it?

[@krigerry7830]

Imagining the marsfour using destiny heine orange color backpack + wing effect o.o? Is that possible to do? I mean the back peg and hgce destiny wings?

those Marsfour weapons looks similliar like Wing Gundam Zero Honoo Custom Kits that came with the Hobby Japan Magazine May 2015 issue

[@Three_Geese_In_A_Trenchcoat]

You can you the core gundam from the earthree with the mercuone, the the gun with the veetwo, and the spare beam effects with the marsfour and all you're left with is a spare planet system with earth armour

[@pakthaipang]

wow seen chrismast is coming this will totally be my present ;-;

[@korymiron3140]

Just built the Core Gundam in this kit and I gotta say, it feels a lot more solid than any of the other Core Gundams.

[@akioreos]

Gives me many Banshee Vibes. Pretty cool kit for a beginner.

[@Highstar25]

PSA: The ball joints in the ankles of the core gundam (might just be the real type, might be all of them) are slightly too wide due to molding lines and can cause stress marks on the back of the ankle. Sand them down a bit while constructing!

I literally just got the core Gundam for the mars unit finished, and I gotta say that it was pretty difficult and time consuming. It took me over 3 1/2 hours to finish it, but it was worth it. The problem was that it was just because it had such small parts. I honestly thought I would’ve broken even just ONE of them they were so small.

Well, I mean, that is an old trick companies have been pulling with color variants for decades now. It relies on the OCD of hardcore collectors, not the average consumer who might not care. So that's the money they're looking to make. So not everyone, but enough modelers to make them money.

if I recall correctly the RX-78-2 was meant to be all white but I forget who did it but they had the colors changed to the iconic colors and the Real Type was just different color for simulations so the Real Type is basically the 00 7 Sword G' Inspection type

[@MasakiHana]

2:45 the actual intended color scheme by Tomino was all pure white hence why Gundam is called the "White Devil", until one of the contractors said it won't be marketable, so they changed the color scheme with the White-Blue-Red-Yellow scheme right away. Unicorn Gundam's color scheme is just fulfilling the intended color scheme of RX-78-2.

Quick ? could this issue of non-accurate core gundam parts because in the anime its all the same core gundam using all the planets systems these other core gundams have issues because they aren't the ones that should be using them? to me they seem like bonus parts and Bandai does not want to repack the same core each time.

I have no idea but as far as I know it depends on Bandai themselves.

[@codysmith2856]

I must say that yes in some people's eyes having the kits separate is a bit of an inconvenience but the Mars four kit is cheaper than your average hg kit then when you add the price of the weapon set it equals to a full hg kit

For some reason I’m good at finding gundam parts that fly onto the floor, I was making the mg kampfer and the eye flew away and I somehow found it.

[@CypressDahlia]

Confirming that the story of those colors being the original colors for Gundam is true. Even going back as far as "gunboy" (the working title for Gundam), you can see early Kunio Okawara concept art where the main colors were black, red and gold before Sunrise stepped in to offer more art direction for the purpose of making toys.
