Kakarot's Notes: During the conclusion, I accidentally say that it costs 4.500 Yen, this should be 4.300 Yen.

FINALLY someone addresses the hollow parts on the barrel of the rifle! It was driving me crazy and it felt like other reviewers were glossing it over!

[@muisverriet]

It really bothers me too. There's not even a reason why they're there.

[@dariuszrutkowski420]

Those may not really be hollow parts. It may be cooling ribbs on the barrel to help radiate heat when in full auto fire. A lot of heavy machine guns had ribbing of some type to act as radiators for long burst fire. Or it can be hollow parts. The anime lacks details in some areas and modelers "fill in" the gaps.

[@supergeno128ds]

@@dariuszrutkowski420 No offense man, its hollow parts for the sake of half-assed. Just pause and look at the rifle at 2:39. If that was a real rifle you couldn't get any bullets through it. I honestly don't know what they were thinking. The cooling radiators is an interesting take on it though. As for me, I'm getting some filler and paint and doing my best to fix this.

[@hijous]

@@dariuszrutkowski420 that doesn't make sense. Lol. Just an excuse for hollow part

[@dariuszrutkowski420]

@@hijous Here is an example of an MG with ring radiators cut into the barrel.kzbin.info/www/bejne/qpi7iH17j995fqc . And here is a CG render animation of a Lewis LMG that uses radiator fins in a cylinder ( seen on a crossection 0:35 - 0:50) kzbin.info/www/bejne/panFq4CIi81pock. They may have made a take on the theme or they just f-ed up the part. Master grade liberties taken in the MS either work out great or they suck big time. The finns are near the muzzle of the rifle but looking closer there seem to be hollow parts behind them. Either way if it bothers the modeler he has a right to modify as he sees fit.

[@ARCCommanderOrar]

Just what I needed to cheer me up, thanks Kakorot197!

[@kjlim3743]

I'd never thought I'd see the day when a Gunpla would do pushups. 8:52

[@chill4075]

Yesss

[@wesker919]

That pose on the box makes me think the Ginn has the power of god and anime on its side.

[@GojiraFan-in9oo]

THIS IS NO ZAKU, BOY! NO ZAKU!!!

[@Joshua_N-A]

Should've give it that ZAKU Warrior torso in GSD and call it GINN II or Hi-GINN. GuAIZ should've been ZAFT's redcoats mainstay unit in Destiny.

[@quetzalphotos5107]

I want a mg zaku 3 so the zaku can regain the title "always bulky"

[@reform-revolution]

did it ever lose the title?

[@MachineMindDesigns]

@@reform-revolution Laughs in Penelope, Nightingale and Xi Gundam

[@yanjirujan193]

@@MachineMindDesigns Nightingale is definitely bulky, but Penelope and Xi aren't, unlike Zaku III and Nightingale, Penelope and Xi articulation aren't hindered by their design

[@GojiraFan-in9oo]

1:07 just apply a clear gloss to the mono-eye sticker during the build and you'll be fine

[@sey7686]

1:24 "So straight out of the box, we're getting an extreally good looking Ginn."

[@ryuuohdeltaplus7936]

>looks at hollow parts in the barrel

[@RedCometNurse]

The Cattus Recoilless Rifle is going to be included with the MG Rey's Zaku Phantom, so there is one other GINN weapon. But otherwise, nothing else so far.

[@TheKing-qz9wd]

Which should be a crime.

[@TsorovanZero]

@@TheKing-qz9wd Nobody would buy the Rey Zaku otherwise. What I want to know is when they take that bazooka runner, and the missile pod runners from the GINN, and release a full ballistic type Blue Frame Astray.

[@TheKing-qz9wd]

@@TsorovanZero Ya know they could actually judt make a limited production version of that Phantom and have given a minor pack with the beam gun and the rocket launcher and stuff for he GINN. Hell, when can I get a Guaze and GINN in the same style as the new Dagger L and Windam? I want that in my life.

[@_MARC0_40]

The ginn looks more like the gelgoog than a zaku, im gonna buy this kit soon

[@Joshua_N-A]

A fusion of both I guess. But to me it's *the* Zaku of CE. Wish they just give it the ZAKU Warrior torso in GSD and call it Hi-GINN.

[@aizhenjeager9087]

Now we need MG Daggers

[@GojiraFan-in9oo]

We just got a modern HG Dagger

[@GojiraFan-in9oo]

11:41 I have the Libra ready to drop on P Bandai's doorstep just in case.

[@notarmchairhistorian7779]

Gonna recieve mine on the mail very soon. Cant wait to finally assemble this badboy!

[@vustvaleo8068]

I think the ZAFT Frame will also work on a MG Dom Trooper.

[@TsorovanZero]

Or CGUE, or DINN, or a couple of others. With some tweaks, this is basically a frame for every ZAFT grunt. By using the ZAKU frame on the GINN, they basically opened up the entire ZAFT grunt line, except for the pure ground types (BuCUE/LaGOWE).

[@Arrowdodger]

I wonder what's planned for next for this frame. CGUE? GuAIZ? Like, I'd love an MG BuCUE or LaGOWE but that's obviously a whole other kettle of fish.

[@Arrowdodger]

(Obviously not counting the Deep Arms, which is a given)

[@TheGuardingDark_]

@@Arrowdodger Deep arms is gonna be PBandai. Just watch.

[@GojiraFan-in9oo]

This guy is a regular McDagger

[@TheKing-qz9wd]

I don't want to bugger a GINN but I do love what I'm looking at.

[@hijous]

Now that's a good looking Ginn

[@mondobizarrro5468]

Granted the hollow parts look more like aesthetics and not the cheapo kind

[@PlatinumHaro]

Have mine bought Just waiting to get it in hand. The customizing to make it look like a dark knight.

[@pugwash1]

I feel like bandai is doing the ginn and Zaku warriors first as their the more iconic zaft grunts and then go into the gouf ignited and the cgue

[@TsorovanZero]

Gouf Ignited will be p-bandai, and Heine colors only probably. If any other version comes out, it'll be Yzak's. CGUE, they could actually get some work out of. I can think of 3 variants they could make off of that. But here's the bigger question. DINN. When. Give me a MG shotgun, that isn't Kampfer's, immediately.

[@PsychoStreak]

"Usually Bulky Harumph! Make me a Master Grade and I'll show you 'Usually Bulky'." - Zaku III.

[@LN_997]

Hoping they do a restock of this soon I would love to pick up this kit

[@coleviloria3800]

I wonder if cutting out those center parts on the hollow barrel to make it like a huge muzzle flash piece it could work unless it just falls to pieces the minute you start cutting it.

[@harutothefriendlyodst7639]

Kakarot: looks much more NATURAL Zaft Pilot inside the ginn: REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

[@dranzer330]

I would like to see a tour of the models kit, i’m really interested of what forniture you use to display the kits

[@ObsidionshadowX]

This thing looks amazing despite the downsides, I will have to get it at some point. I need that Gremory though! 😅

[@hikaruren9207]

Have any chance to see mg mk v ?

[@alxporrini8563]

Bought one from Amazon. It might be coming in tomorrow or Tuesday. After I'm done with this one I might get the MG Eclipse or MG Zeta Ver. Ka.

I miss good MGs that never compromise. What's with the cheapenning :( Nice review.

[@nightcore_vibez]

The Ginn is my favorite MS from the seed/destiny series. Something about just speaks to me

[@highhunter1st]

I bought two XD and now we wait.

[@Joshua_N-A]

Make a MS squad diorama with them!

[@WhiteWulfe]

Kind of surprised you didn't put it next to the Gunner Zaku Warrior.

[@dumpsterchild5734]

Look awesome 😎😎 still great looking

[@Annawat_Art]

Love the Mg Ginn, now time for the Mg Strike Dagger. Please make it happened Bandai.🙏🤣🤫😙👍

[@Bobert2020]

Waiting for any type of mg dagger

[@SirSybian]

new camera?

[@hedell4812]

I want my MG CGUE, MG Gouf Ignited and MG DOM Trooper.

[@awesomechainsaw]

Looks tasty

[@teslashark]

Just here for the Zaku 3

[@kashmerlangston545]

For the gaps on the barrel,I'm assuming that it was meant to represent some type of midway muzzle brake. To me it actually looks really cool,but to each their own.

[@spacetaz3382]

I double checked a few screen shots from the wiki and the rifle isn't supposed to have those hollow spaces. But honestly I kinda like them anyway

[@kashmerlangston545]

@@spacetaz3382 I do too. I don't think Bandai did that for no reason.

[@jmsanzo797]

I would love a mg bucue next, such a unique suit for Gundam. It’s not likely though. I would imagine a cgue or Guaz would be next (if their is a next...)

[@gc6096]

awesome

[@bluebirdsigma]

I'd get it, and play Zips at max volume while building it

[@christopherdavis3424]

This model does look good, but I’d rather have a HG revive than a MG. Get on it Bandai!

[@6gredlite907]

MG Leo!

[@ashtaron23]

Bandai should also release a MG CGUE

[@MrMechaMan]

ayyyy

[@endymion6165]

What i hate about the weapon is that it looks like a beam weapon when it isn't. Makes me want to chop the hollow middle part off which would make it like a real life modern rifle with a muzzle break.

[@Joshua_N-A]

The CE *Zaku* , not that GSD one. Should've give it that new torso in GSD and call it Hi-GINN. The hollow barrel is aesthetics in my book at least.

[@kitetenjogalladeknighttosh8863]

If only if the GINN had it's other weapons

[@ScMythical]

Only 4,300 yen? Easily a great kit to pick up

[@ericbloodsmith5161]

If I do buy one of these I'm definitely going to cut off the barrel.

[@rustydave8558]

That gun...why the heck would they have hollow spots on a new mg kits weapon. I wont buy this until there is an alternative weapon set.
