MG 1/100 MS-06S Char's Zaku II 2.0 | Jcc2224 Review

Wanted to make a video detailing and warning about some aspects of the MG Char's Zaku II. I love this figure, but some aspects of it are weighed down by Earth's gravity!

Remember the Fedies can't hit anything that's pink.

[@Doiboy35]

Just put my first MG kit together, and it's this one! I usually work with HG level kits, so I was expecting a huge learning curve and a more complex, delicate model but this was actually not bad at all and really solid. The hands are a pain to work with, but I like the idea since I hate having to keep track of spare hands, maybe if they made the fingers close more tightly instead of relying on the palm peg. Personally didn't have any issues with the snout, even without sanding, but I don't know if Bandai fixed it between 6 years ago and now. Probably gonna stick with HG kits from now on but this was a nice change of pace.

[@igetoys]

I like the way you reviewing gunpla, clear, honest for the weakness of the kit, and brought in with some tips. Nice!!!

[@TheBudgetJedi]

Really awesome articulation, feels like such a high quality item. Great review.

[@Jcc2224]

Thanks for watching man! This certainly is pretty high quality, excluding it's faults.

[@rabidhammer31]

Friggin sweet dude! Great review.

[@Jcc2224]

thanks mah boi!

[@obiwan5483]

I luv your videos man.hope your channel gets more subs

[@Jcc2224]

Thanks man! The sub count is growing every day, but I've noticed viewership on any video that isn't related to Clone Troopers has dropped significantly...

[@zaynkor2670]

The snout broke on mine too, though instead of breaking on that seam line, it snapped in half on the sides. Thankfully I was able to glue them back together, but I feel bad for others who can't.

[@NoOne-us9xv]

Insanely late but the other fin belongs to the high mobility type Zaku IIs. I have no idea why it comes with this kit, but that's kind of neat I guess. Really good review overall, it's nice to know exactly what I'm getting into with this thing.

[@kingofmonsterisland4968]

Just a tip if you want to do it you can cut the three fingers that are connected to get individual finger articulation so you can create more cool poses with the hands

[@travisfranz703]

Good on you telling about the problems holding the weapons. That would drive me nuts

[@Jcc2224]

I have gotten the green Zaku in between me making this video and now. Oddly enough the green does hold the weapons BETTER, but still not great.

[@konigstiger3017]

You honestly have to be my favourite youtuber dude, ive watched nearly all of your videos and cant wait for more

[@Jcc2224]

Thanks man! Comments like this keep me going. Been super busy with my full-time job so I haven't been able to produce a lot of videos. Hopefully after the Christmas shopping rush ends I can catch my breath and get some vids out!

[@EndHall]

Loving the diversity in Jcc2.0

[@MandalorianMerc5]

Rad tad my dude! My Johnny Ridden custom zaku 2 comes in tomorrow, I'm stoked. I really want this one to though Dx

[@Jcc2224]

I prolly won't get any more MG Zaku IIs, but the high mobility type is certainly cool! Matsunaga's is my fave for sure!

[@MandalorianMerc5]

Jcc2224 I'm gonna have to check it out! Still new to the Gundam fandom XD

[@CrimsonRaptors]

Great review! I really appreciate the close-up shots with helps greatly in showing the detail this kit has to offer. At 7:44 I am curious, would you be willing to part with the "mini lift vehicle" or know anyone that would be willing to part with just that vehicle, itself? Also, at 9:00 that is mostly used as the fin for the commander of the Black Tri-Stars.

[@Jcc2224]

I'm quite fond of the little lift-thingy, I display my painted Char on it. Hopefully you can find one! And yeah, figured it was for them. Still a cool design, gives me more of a hardcore vibe. I display the RG Zaku with it all the time. Thanks for watching!

[@CrimsonRaptors]

Cool beans. I looking to get at least two more for my stop-motion animations, so I'll keep on looking. The Black Tri-Stars, or Lt. Jurnior Grade antenna, does look pretty hardcore. I agree. =P

[@bobtard20]

Saw this at hobby lobby today. Really had to stop myself from picking it up because i plan on getting the clear version.

[@Bobert2020]

Wait so if you bring it to space, all of its problems will be solved?

[@primustheprotogen3169]

There is one other master grade that you require. If you get an MG Char Zaku II, you also need an MG RX-78-2 Gundam

[@Jcc2224]

I got it! They're standing side by side on my shelf, they look incredible!

[@Zanable06]

Planning to buy one

[@sylnz97]

currently bulding the rx-78-2 3.0 and I guess Imma get this one next lol

[@fallingbird-hw5bt]

i love this moddel kit i really like it its a classic one problem is that the spring on the legs are really loose and are easy to loose and its a pain to put them on but other than that its a really good kit

[@HybrydATP64]

2.0 kits are simplistic because they are supposed to replicate the anime look unlike the RG kits

[@NoSoapp]

Where did you get that mobile suit? I can't find it anywhere it's my favorite too, could you help me?

[@Jcc2224]

Amazon is THE place to go for buying Gundam models! Here's the link! www.amazon.com/Bandai-Hobby-MS-06S-Master-Action/dp/B000P5F7B2/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1510934022&sr=8-3&keywords=mg+zaku

[@NoSoapp]

Jcc2224 thanks! One time when buying a figma the order didn't come through so ive been searching for something besides amazon but I'm going to use your advice and the link thanks!

[@roxboy5505]

Any thought to paint into more reddish like the origin version?

[@Jcc2224]

I prefer the peachy-red color for Char over the dark red the Origin does, so no. I love the purple Origin eye and lights though.

[@rod8366]

If you like char’s zaku then you will love the sazabi

[@vincentalpiepedrozo2337]

I'm still waiting for the release of Char Zaku II Origin version

[@Jcc2224]

Ya know, I'm VERY surprised we haven't gotten an MG of that! Same with an MG Geara Zulu!

[@vincentalpiepedrozo2337]

Do you know how to get any 6 inch zaku figure? Or maybe like 7 inch I look for some but they are all 1/44 scale

[@Jcc2224]

You're in LUCK! The Gundam Universe Char's Zaku II is about to come out, that's 6" scale and it's a $25 action figure!

[@sealkaijugang8868]

Is this the same as the green one

Pretty much yeah!

[@DieLee-yg4uq]

How many inches is this? Ik it says 1/100 but idk what scale that is sorry

[@Jcc2224]

It's about 7-8" tall!

[@DieLee-yg4uq]

Ok thank you

[@troyithinkflareonwon3135]

I personally own the mg chat zaku 2 and yeah the weapons do not stay in at all

[@galeanorodriguez9668]

Do you have the holographic commander Cody?

[@Jcc2224]

That I do, I have three of it! One loose, one loose and broken at the crotch (clear plastic is quite fragile), and one carded.

[@galeanorodriguez9668]

i was wondering cause i didnt see it in your evolution if cody vid. Also its a pretty weird figure if you think about it, like what kid would ask for a holographic cody for christmas?

[@Ceejay.staylyfted]

Lmao I literally just built a char zaku 2 RG and the snout split in half when I was removing it from the kit smh other than happy with the purchase

[@cyruschiu5292]

Damn I just buy this 4 hours ago

[@MarvelandDC379]

I've always wanted to try Master Grades. I only build High Grades.

[@Jcc2224]

Same here. The only other Master Grade I want is the Dom (just to have my 3 fave mobile suits in 1/100). They're worth getting at least your fave Suit for sure. I still prefer High Grades for their affordability, character selection, and size.

[@MMAJP182]

Jcc2224 bigger is always better

[@MMAJP182]

Jcc2224 try amazon for good pricing

[@smiley1722]

@@Jcc2224 same I want the dom too I wish master grades were less expensive

[@thecatassassainconquest7765]

Wait can the master grade zaku flip u off

[@Jcc2224]

It's a pretty lame flip off given how the middle, ring, and pinky fingers are connected. You CAN disconnect them from each other if you desire, so, yeah, he can.

[@zaynkor2670]

Technically it can

[@Magneme]

Little known fact (even though I’m sure you already know about it) our lord and savior iDubbbz has or has had Gundam figures. I’d say that this probably means he’s a fan, because gundam figures aren’t exactly sold in stores.

[@Jcc2224]

I know he got a Revive HGUC RX-78-2 in a bad unboxing and said "I'll never have time to build this", so he knew what it was. Has he shown/referenced Gundam elsewhere?

[@Magneme]

Jcc2224 he talked about them in one of his earlier Bad Unboxing videos, but I forget which one. I’ve been binging his older videos lately and when he mentioned it I instantly thought of you.

[@Jcc2224]

damn If you find out which one that is send me the link to the vid!

[@Magneme]

Jcc2224 will do!

[@Akazainul]

@@Magneme soo have you find it?

[@suyo3380]

Get the Zok

[@Jcc2224]

The Zock is on my list of kits to get. Need to finish my 1/144 original Mobile Suit Gundam collection with that, the Mass Prod. Z'Gok, and the G Armor.

[@ItThunderbolt]

I swear, there was like a cat hair in every angle of this video

[@Jcc2224]

I KNOW RIGHT. My cat tends to shed a lot and I've noticed some videos with the cat hair pretty prominent. It's hard to spot during filming, but nowadays I take measures to avoid it (like washing my hands before a video and blowing on the figures).

[@zetasann]

this piece of plastic is FINE

[@Mr.POTF2]

A classic kit.

[@Jcc2224]

I'm surprised it's TEN years old. It's still really amazing, besides the weapon holding.

[@Ally.Cat.252]

Man why did they make it pink?? He’s the red comet ffs

[@Jcc2224]

Many of Char's mobile suits are more of a salmon red color rather than the darker reds you see with his later suits like the Sazabi.

[@Lancer7117]

But you see jobby had an unintended snout break and liked it

[@platinumdragonslayer6128]

Nice review. I feel like they can make a better MG version of this Red Zaku. So I’ll pass on this one

[@Jcc2224]

I'm surprised they haven't made an MG Origin or MG v3 Zaku honestly.

[@platinumdragonslayer6128]

@@Jcc2224. I know. I want to have the Zaku II and RX-78-2 posed together in combat.

[@Jcc2224]

I did too, which is why I got the MG 2.0 RX-78-2. I love the anime look personally.

[@smiley1722]

@@Jcc2224 I'm surprised they never made a real grade of the Rick Dom when they made a ton of suits from the original series

I straight up said his name when referring to his broken MG Zaku, so... No.

[@holden_7597]

I hate the proportions, they are way to anime like. The origin HGs aren’t prefect(way too thin!) but they are much closer to the designs I like. Just my preference though.

[@muisverriet]

I much prefer the surface detail of the HGTO.

God damn you interrupting my fucking anime. With more anime. #Zakuisdad

[@Jcc2224]

sorry not sorry

[@snowpuddle9622]

it's not a figure

[@Jcc2224]

Basically the only difference between this and an action figure is who's building it! lol I consider gunpla to be figures, but they're figure model kits, not straight up action figures.

[@ricko3316]

You keep saying figure. Stop it! It's not a figure, it's a model kit. Tssss

[@Jcc2224]

Why not both?
