HGUC 1/144 Sinanju Stein Narrative Ver. Review - MECHA GAIKOTSU

[@shizaaa_salad4381]

Honestly, I feel like you can't have a sinanju without a unicorn, and vice versa. Their just too memorable as a pair.

[@MrRe-pg7fj]

Gian Jimenez Like the Nu gundam and the Sazabi.

Unicorn Phenex Narrative Ver. Unfortunately nothing new about that HG since it's based on the same old molds.

When the high grade is better than the real grade

[@Devixicus]

That's actually pretty common. High Grades and the HGUC line have been around for a very long time so Bandai is super familiar with how to engineer them. RGs, however, have always struggled with finicky parts and while they look really nice, a lot of builders stay away from them because they're hard to work with. The only major exceptions there is the Mk II.

[@SonicCam04]

Hg are getting really good nowadays huh

[@Coolio_Ash]

At least the ones with almost all new molds yeah

[@BNuts]

Pretty sure the build on this is based on that of the HGUC Sinanju, albeit with new armour and a frame to match. Really solid and detailed, the original Sinanju came out way back in 2010. It is one of the oldest kits in my collection, and one of my favourites. Sinanju Stein will doubtlessly be right at home beside it

[@Coolio_Ash]

@@BNuts the only parts that arent new is like... the waist lol

[@bagonmyhead69]

Coolio Ash Almost no parts are old from the HG Sinanju. Its 95% a new mold

[@bagonmyhead69]

HG’s have been great quality kits since 2010. Straight builders just like to jerk off MGs.

[@fireofhyperion]

I have yet to comment my thanks to you, and your channel. However, as a Greek-American, I have found your work to be entertaining and informative. My choices of purchasing have been heavily influenced by your works. I am just a little Builder in Texas, but I appreciate you.

[@許晉銘-x1b]

It is smaller than I thought.

[@digigeek19]

Honestly, having built both the mg and hg, I can admit I prefer the High grade.

[@MechaGaikotsu]

I can totally understand that. Sometimes small and simpler is much more fun

[@SoulCrusherEx]

dont know if the quote: The Sinanju is solid like a rock was intentional or not because Stein is german and means Rock... :p. I love the Design of that HG. definetly a must have

[@Chovyy-f25]

1:25 Ver Ka.: Has Sausage Fuel Tanks HG: Has FootLong Fuel Tanks

[@Raijin24226]

I think this ver of the Stein was the "Mid" version of the sinanju. It was mentioned that Full Frontal stole the sinanju. If it was stolen, the first looks of the sinanju would be the all white one. Then time passes by and Full Frontal made changes with how the sinanju looks, adding those zeonic symbols. Then time passes by again ang Full Frontal had all the time to repaint his machine to an all red sinanju and add that horn. Idk I haven't read the manga tho. I just deduced it from hiw the three ver of sinanjus looks like

[@hotsauce8780]

So The Stein is the testbed and a data gathering machine, but it actually had the same specs as sinanju, but its sensitivity and acceleration was not safe nor suitable for ordinary pilots to survive. AE transferred (disguised as a robbery) both Steins ti the sleeves, and only one was remade into the Sinanju we know; which had its colors, attachments and settings changed.

[@melsgamingvault]

"Glorious..." i love the RG Unicorn too!

[@Frolaire]

I'm honestly contemplating preordering the MG because I loved the regular MG Stein.

[@MechaGaikotsu]

Do it :)

[@chasinthroughthedecade]

I have already commented this somewhere, but just wanna repeat it: Please, Bandai, if you are planning to make a RG Sinanju Stein, DON’T EVER USE THE MK-II FRAME EVER AGAIN! Learn from your mistake…..

[@nihar2001]

True

[@primecoconut4204]

well they did very well nowadays on the unicorn and the new Sazabi, which is waaay better than the unicorn. so maybe theyll carry the assembly technique of the sazabi to this in the future

[@chasinthroughthedecade]

@@primecoconut4204 On the other hand, I imagine they would make an all-new frame for the Sinanju Stein. Then perhaps we can get a RG Sinanju 2.0 afterwards?

[@shakespeareanim]

@@chasinthroughthedecade Yes, RG Sinanju 2.0!

[@tmk20221]

I doubt they'd make 2.0s of RGs but we can hope

[@jakeboston1]

This was my first kit ever. Got me into the hobby!

[@duckyouall3225]

Noice about to get mine aswell

[@EKOddLink]

I'd buy this just for it's head sculpt. That is honestly a wicked head, and the edges are sharper than usual

[@ardhi108]

I have built mine. The best HG I've ever built. It's basically an MG Sinanju stein scaled down to 1/144 with some different parts. Once you apply decals and some detailing to the kit, it will be looked as good as its MG counterpart.

"the real grade unicorn gundam... *glorious* "

[@MahriKing14]

As a guy who is thrilled about buiding custom Gunpla, I enjoy Sinanju Stein more than Sinanju because of it having almost too unique armor design which makes it difficult to find matching parts. Not sure if I should pick up the original 1/100 or wait for Ver.Ka tho

[@elchito3]

Really sucks about them using the old ball and socket hip joint instead of the more recent peg one. Some clear nail polish will probably tighten it up so it doesn't sag so much, but it definately could have been better made since they used mostly new molds for the stien. Still hyped about this kit though and look forwards to losing it with my RG Sinanju.

[@cullenbahr4549]

I honestly would have thought that the issues with the leg/hip joints would have bumped it down a tier but it doesn't matter to me. I'm still getting it

[@TheHipisterDeer]

Bandai has really stepped up their game when it comes to high grades

[@QuantaSolace]

I just finished mine tonight after spending all weekend working on the Neo Zeong Unit 2. I don't know why but the shield and the grenade launcher don't fit on the arm on mine. I'm not sure what the deal is but it is a little annoying.

[@justinc6257]

Even though it has the old ball joint hips, at least the HGUC Sinanju Stein's hip joints can swing outward. I can't tell you how scared I was in the unboxing video when I saw that the old Sinanju's hip joints were still being used.

[@Goosh342]

@@shakespeareanim also a good option

[@LatencyProblem]

Thing to remember about the MG though, the hands use the same fully articulated hands as the RX - 78 2 ver 3.0 so it's going to have trouble holding up its hugeass rifle. Otherwise, the kit itself is absolutely brilliant.
