Gyanko one of the best parts of Build Fighters Try? Ah, I see you're a man of culture as well.

[@bkebradley]

I crave more thicc Gundam girls

[@First-Name_Last-Name]

The complete trinity kit. 1.Thicc 2.Twintail 3.Tsundere

[@elitemikovirus7909]

I think shia is one of the best part of try 😳

[@SparkRattle]

From what I can tell, the handles for the shields seem to be taken straight from the valuable pod set just like the shield facades and the saber hilts. The R-Gyagya is essentially an R-Jarja with a Valuable pod upgrade... And extra parts for flavor. And I love it to bits.

[@jasonex4027]

At last! I was just about to place an order with this kit among others just because I adore the Gyan and wanted to try out different versions. I'll watch your clip and complete the order afterwards. Thank you Zaku!

[@jasonex4027]

So just a few stickers and I prefer the gray not to be silver because sometimes those colors look "meh" if not painted, and I'm not planning on painting this kit fully. Again, thanks, I'll pick it up.

[@ZakuAurelius]

Definitely pick it up if you have the chance!

[@jasonex4027]

@@ZakuAurelius Already done lol. Seems nice enough for its price!

[@dialect64]

As far as knight themed kits, I usually find them corny... but I absolutely love this one! The weapon/posing options are great too!

[@WD_Nikingu]

I got into building gunpla last year and the Gyan was my first ever HG kit and i absolutely love it's design, so i definitely need to find and buy this one! Thanks for a great review!

[@infernas]

This kit has continued to elude me, I've been searching for the past couple of years but all the local stores have run out of stock. (International is not an option where I'm from unfortunately.) This is one of those kits whose design I disliked from the outset, but eventually grew on me and it's now become a must-have lol. Still holding out hope that I'll find one someday!

[@YomiDee]

i have it unopened

[@leonk9168]

@@YomiDee sell it to me please xD

[@kidrobot.]

don't worry, there are a bunch of hard to find hgbf/bd kits here in the usa

[@75sti75]

I passed on this kit when it came out but it’s really grown on me design-wise. It’s like you said: not super robot-ish and it could totally pass for a UC variation. So naturally when I was wanting to expand my Neo Zeon collection this one came to mind again. Thanks to your great review I went out to find one! Just wish they had em at USAGS

[@ZakuAurelius]

Yeah a lot of the Build Fighters HG kits are hard to find these days. Well, a lot of every kind of kit unfortunately!

[@XNSever]

I really love this kit. I sprayed mine gold on the injection parts and its amazing

[@nofuxgivens2797]

The appearance of this and the r jarja are great but it definitely needs a redesign. The main gimmicks are the shoulder armor/weapons that are supposed to move to give the suit increased protection and some attack options even when enemies get close behind them. I don't really know how they were cool with the shoulders being the weakest part when it should be the strongest

[@dwikiherlambang]

always waiting for your review even the kit I already have

[@thetsarofall8666]

This was one of my first gundam kits, i have a partially dissasembled one around my house somewhere because i planned on customizing it but never got to it.

[@vustvaleo8068]

the connections for the shield when being held in the hands is originally meant for the old HGUC Gyan with them clips on the much bulkier arms, mind you not the Revive Gyan and I owned both versions of the HG Gyan.

[@bretts1646]

Really do wish these weren't so difficult to find, they're definitely sweet, and it's certainly one of the more solid build fighters kits in general, as well.

[@coreyjohnson19]

This kit will look great with a slick paint job

[@saruki0132]

i still want one of this, or the regular one if i could get my hands on it. great review!

[@onionring1531]

Gyanko has good taste, both her MS are the only Build Fighters kits other than the Dom R35 that I let share the UC shelf.

[@lukepenn5713]

Literally have been staring at that box for months

[@squeak2183]

I loved it, the shoulders were prone to falling off, but i still loved the design, sadly, mine took a tumble off a shelf and the one of the sockets in the water basically disintegrated beyond being able to glue

[@crackthecorn]

i picked it up when it came out . its one of my favorites.

[@mildsauce8243]

the gyan family making a comeback lol

[@Ihavethetouch]

One of my absolute favorites

[@9S0dX]

This one was one of my fav design from build fighters

[@gunplabuild2206]

love the kit

[@jihlnabaat6329]

Gyanko be praised!, i want to mix the Hyper Gyanko and this together the shield and the backpack and the feet with a recolor to match.

[@uncletatscreativeshack1702]

Very nice, I can see some great paint jobs applied to this suit. I do however wish the Gatling guns could be removed and used in the hand and just stored in the back. Otherwise it seems silly from an engineering perspective to have them facing backwards

[@First-Name_Last-Name]

Never had the slightest chance to buy this kit. This one is of the few kits like the Super Custom Zaku F2000 and GM Sniper K9 that ended up totally sold out in my country in just 2~3 days.

[@ZakuAurelius]

Hmm you may like another upcoming review then! 😅

[@Atomic_Sunday]

Yeah, the Zaku F2000 is such a hard to get kit, I really wish Bandai would give the Gunpla Builders kits a reprint.

[@SOBERABSORBER]

I managed to get the GM Sniper K9. But yeah the Super Custom Zaku F2000 is pretty much impossible to get now.

[@curepanda2646]

It only appeared on 1 episode yet ability wise, it immediately hits me. It sucks that it doesn’t come back in Island Wars. Would’ve been nice if it wield that awesome lance fron Gyancelot but oh well ^^;

[@michaeldelcastillo7211]

I want a gundam series with mobile suits like this: knight themed

[@rs.p]

I get some solid Sazabi-lite vibes from this MS design.

[@brunocorrea2854]

Agree. Those loose shoulders get in the way of flexing those majestic arms. It is sad for it is really good aesthetically, and with the articulation to boot.

[@juanmiguelsebastian1477]

i think the gold plastic beams are for those who want to make a shield with a long stick behind.

[@scarletrain6757]

I wanna have gunpla rain from my ceiling

[@DaidoujiPV]

It looks good but the joint problems is what make think twice if buy it or not, i have a Nu Gundam and he have a slightly joint problem (wich can be fixed with polish nail), but looking at Gyagya with those big shoulders, im gonna need to put more polish nail on it so, no xwx

[@0Ce0UIoPC]

FOR GYANKO!

[@cringecorps]

It’s a beautiful mobile suit but a nightmare to pose it will fall apart at the slightest adjustments…a stand is must if you it to have shoulder shields extended…

[@benadrylthundercrotch7144]

Curious what the runner for the arm shield attachments is labelled as. It looks like the one from Gyan, which would explain the width, but that only had the left arm. Weird.

[@ZakuAurelius]

Nah nothing from this kit is from a Gyan kit

[@morenojames5868]

If the kit sold for $20~ before tax and shipping it'd be a great buy, true, but currently I haven't found this kit for less than $40 pre-tax (shipping included) and typically I've seen it for about the price of an MG. For that price you could just buy the Durga II RE:2 from Kotobukiya if you really want a knight style mecha. It even comes in that silver injection plastic. But if this had a moving mono-eye like the Char's Zaku revive (I think that's the one) then I'd honestly be willing to shell out more. That sticker mono-eye is just disappointing considering how good the rest of the kit looks.

[@FebreGundam]

This was one of the very first gunplas I built and it's probably my favorite design from the whole Build universe, that's clearly gone downhill from Build Divers forward.

[@drewquitco6019]

Just want to ask, I want to get this kit but I hear the shoulders are very loose is it that bad of play/posing for time to time. I really new at building gunpla so I dont really know how to fix stuff like that.

[@stuffin91]

when i got back into gunpla a few years ago this was my first kit, i'd been out of the game for awhile so i'd thought that it was based on the sazabi...

[@ZakuAurelius]

There are some design similarities, naturally!

[@sawthureinhtay8350]

Man this was my first gunpla kit It's Ashame that I broke it alot

[@golasticus]

Never been this early, let's gooooo

This and Gyancelot are badass designs, Gyanko is a keeper but too bad she got side-tracked in the series.

A cool looking Gunpla, but prepare to get your model cement ready. Over time, it's one of those Gundam gunpla where you barely move it and the arms, shoulder or head or some piece will come off.
