[@itchey8715]

Love how it turned out Gundam. Also, the new format is great. Looking forward to more. Hope to see some zaku love in the future!

[@ItsAGunpla]

Itchey is the person who sent me what I think was the first gunpla I ever got as a gift!

[@manillafb06]

You Gotta get the new Alex 2.0, Gundam

[@olivershagnasty8160]

Zaku models will always be the coolest looking in my opinion. Sieg Zeon!

[@mariobadia4553]

[@tonywebb1403]

I love to see you do a tall gease if that is the correct spelling it has always been one of my favorite suits i like that it is simple but cool

[@Wreck1990]

THERE'S A GUNDAM DOWN HERE!

[@patch-fm]

Nope i just see alot of zakus here....

[@AlwaysAstral]

Honestly for me personally Wing, Deathscythe and Heavy Arms are the most iconic gundams of all time. Could not get enough of these guys on the screen as a kid.

[@kitawithsomenumbers]

My favourite gundam! Bummed it's so finicky but hey, it looks great!

[@ultimateknight4667]

I like the blue endless waltz version.

[@kitawithsomenumbers]

@@ultimateknight4667 Fair point, mo dakka is mo cool

🤩😘

[@fragtagninja1633]

I've had no issues with mine.

[@Geeko170]

This really helped. I’ve been having a rough weekend, and this really helped. Thanks gundam.

[@ADR69]

This was an awesome format/review video

[@jamesmack9598]

Gundam Wing will always hold a very special place in my heart. It aired at 8pm every night after Dragonball Z in Canada when I was a child, and was the first Gundam I ever saw. It's what set me on this lifepath of weeb degeneracy of which I regret nothing. I thought the mobile suit designs were so cool, the story and characters were edgier and more adult than any cartoons I had seen up until that point, and it sparked a love of anime and mecha that continues to this day. I'm living in Japan right now and I just visited the giant Gundam Unicorn statue in Odaiba, where they have the most amazing figure shop called Gundam Base. I'm really bad at model building. I don't think I have the patience or dexterity required to make one as amazing as the one in this video, but it would be a dream to build an Altron Gundam (my fav.) or Deathscythe Hell, or a nice Talgeese of similar quality. Anyways, sorry for the rant, the nostalgia hit me hard there. I love both your channels, keep up the great work!

[@dylanhinman9942]

Show this to my nine-year-old. We have put a few model cars and planes together and now he wants to build Gundams. I couldn't be more proud. Like Bobby asking for a gun rack on his bike😂 Ordered a PG Zaku II Kai. Figured it's a good entry kit.

[@InDiGo1222]

Great vid Gundam. I wing was my entry point into Gundam as well. The kit looks amazing!

[@striker8paints]

For those floppy hinged parts try some blue tac, aka that removable sticky putty you can get for posters, and work a bit down in the pivot points during assembly, you have to trial and error the amount when dry fitting. It tightens things up rather well without stressing the joint and lasts a long time, I have some 40k tanks that I did that to 10+ years ago and the moving parts are still holding in position but move easily when you want them to.

[@fangzification]

YES! Heavy Arms has always been my favorite out of all of the Gundam Wing mobile suits.

[@brianhruszczak7239]

Thanks for the heads up I’m going to also be doing the entire wing set. Every day before football practice I remember till this day we would watch toonami and it sure did hook me and my brother. I agree I’m doing the wing zero and I’m halfway done and some of the parts just arnt that secure. Keep it up gundam

[@Wreck1990]

[@DigitalFulcrum]

Fun fact, many of the suit designs from Gundam Wing, the Leo, Aeries, Tallgeese, are designed Haijame Katoki, this guy was know for his more militarized designed in the Gundam universe, his first work done in the manga Gundam Sentinel, but Wing was his first animated appearance. Now Katoki I has stayed in the Gundam Universe and when you see a "Ver Ka" kit, that's his redesign contributions, he's one of official mech designers in the Gundam universe. And Zeta Gundam is best Gundam

[@akocbibbo]

Omg it's glorious papa Gundam!!!

[@UrieleProiettiKamreth]

And now we got an amazing intro too, soul is soothed, thanks man.

[@SchmuckBoi]

Honestly Damn love this format. I enjoy the format of your usual videos to date but this more formal format with these videos just feels so much more fitting, please keep this channel going ❤

[@Tsukasa4692]

Nice weathering effects, looks really fking good man.

[@thedarkflameknight7942]

I love the kit and the passion you have for Gundam! Keep up the great work :)

[@Darrkerkg]

Beautiful painting, simply beautiful

[@GeeHood666]

Those metal bits, and that knife look SICK! I need to practice more.

[@hypax665]

Looks amazing. God that into flooded my memory of being a kid and watching the series on tv for the first time.

[@countpicula]

A little crazy glue on the hinges before you snap them together will fix a lose joint. A small rare earth magnet in the feeder belt receiver will also help it stay connected. Hit me up with a pm if you want some hacks for lose joints and the like. Love the work. It looks great.

[@Goldengolfer330]

Heavy arms was my favorite gundam as a kid!! Sweet model dude

[@hvyarms4496]

🤩😘

[@TheWoebringer]

Your Dry-Brushing and inking are ON POINT. I find 1/144th detail work is much harder than 1/100th scale for my hands and skill set. Really well done! Heavy Arms was a great choice. Out of the time Prime Gundam Wing offerings (Wing, Endless Waltz) it is one of my favorite suits - falling only to Wing Zero Kai, Heavy Arms Kai and Epyon.

[@1cncguy]

Dam the hanger in the background looks badass too👍

[@machinecore500]

The painting design on the gundam shows that it has bin in some battles and the colors on the shoulder plats looks awesome and the chest is awesome and be safe and healthy everyone and have an awesome weekend and day ✌😁.

[@eloquentsarcasm]

Damn Gundam, I spent 25 years or so of my life painting/sculpting 28mm miniatures but never really got into anything bigger than 68mm, these kits are MASSIVE. With small scale stuff, a ton of the shading/lighting has to be really over emphasized to make it even visible, but your stuff is so huge it becomes a much finer, blended effort to make it look good. You hack on yourself WAY too much bud, your work is outstanding.

[@catcrapinahat]

Beautiful work, absolutely beautiful. I hate how hard it is to adjust the Gatling on this kit, wish we could get an updated version.

[@ricardobelmont5984]

Wooo beautiful. I am looking forward to all of your other future works.

[@corneliusbuckley8897]

Great video! Wasn’t even aware of your second channel til 10 minutes ago. Love your artistic design and choice of colors!

[@Vapor413]

Enjoying the models and vids. Nice work!

[@squattinggopnik8514]

The only thing I don't like about this kit is the color scheme. But your paint job made it look absolutely beautiful! Seriously dude that's one of the best and most suiting paint job I've ever seen on a Gundam like this one. Amazing job my man 🤘

[@superlativeb]

so cool man, i didn't even know you did this until you posted abt it ! I bought so many of these when i was a kiddo and have no idea where they went and yours are just amazingly well done. props homie thanks for this.

[@hover9198]

I really like this format of video, it’s something i can just sit back and listen too, it’s nice listening to a gundam that isn’t angry at KZbin or the media for now.

[@shockers12512]

Robotech was my first mech anime, then gundamwing just blew up. Started to get into uc universe unicorn gundam was great. Any advice going back or forward in the series.

[@wice4711]

I would recommend 0080 War the pocket and 0083 Stardust memory

[@kingragnork]

Robotech/Macross was my first as well and then Wing thanks to Toonami. 008th MS team is a must, Unicorn i just started watching yesterday. Don't really know the rest. Patlabor is another mecha anime i grew up with, escaflowne too.

[@jamesmack9598]

Some more recent entries that are really good (for the first time in a long time), are Iron Blooded Orphans and Gundam Thunderbolt.

[@FasterthanLight11]

Everyone always says 0080 but never mention the best UC Gundam of all time, 8th MS Team.

I've been wanting to look into painting.

[@OldManFang]

Awesome job man. Real talent with an air brush. I dig that background, Looks real good to pop the Gundam out at you.

[@nohero1339]

Wing was my intro into Gundam and Heavy Arms was my favorite as well as the Heavy Arms Custom from Endless Waltz. I wish the eyes popped a little more but it looks great

[@Alph4Om3g4]

Gundam Wing was actually the very first of the series I ever watched. Loved the gundam designs for the series too.

[@bezarregaming]

Heavyarms is one of my favorite Gundams from the Wing series, Tallgeese III, and then Altron

[@kingragnork]

Finally someone else who shares the same love.

[@Xyanel]

Ahh finally, thank you for starting this :) Been waiting since you 1st post your gunpla. Hoping to see you building newer MGs :) Good luck on the builds.

[@Rarebros]

Heavyarms is awesome. Gundam Wing is also what introduced me to the series. You should do a Deathscythe build next. Your painting is remarkable and I enjoy your personal opinions on the pros and cons of the kit. Thanks again bro, can't wait to see what else you will show us in the future!

[@mikegonzalez9119]

Looks awesome bro can’t what to see the next one

[@Geryfon]

Awesome to see you doing a Gunpla channel, this makes me want to get some kits now and not just be 40king it all the time! Hope you're enjoying doing it as well!

[@moxiox932]

The thing is a work of art! Looking forward to the Z and ZZ gundam kits.

Love the format man 👍 gonna binge some vids. Keep being awesome Gundam

[@iamakactus2588]

Oh Heavyarms.. my favorite childhood Gundam

[@slj3332]

I love it and I rewatch it all the time on Hulu

[@LemonCreature]

Awesome video, I had no idea you had a channel for Gunpla. This is a nice little surprise discovery here :D I've been eyeballing this kit at my local hobby shop (and the X1 Ver Ka, or the ZZ Ver Ka, I have too many things on my wishlist). I'm a bit turned off by that Feeder Belt (like the tub that connects my Luna Gradeless 1/100's big gun, just falls out a ton) buuuut maybe I could deal with it? I'm trying to improve my own personal Gunpla skills so maybe it'd be a good test of skill dealing with the belt. I'm trying to move beyond snap building myself, just got into panel lining, applied decals for the first time recently too and now I'm trying to work up the courage to use my top coat (sorry if I'm going on a bit of a rant, Gunpla's just fun to talk about).

[@n0madfernan257]

loved the worn out look of the gundam heavy arms

[@IronMan24]

I actually just got that gunpla. I'm gonna put it together probably tomorrow. It looks good, I can't wait to put it together.

[@jamesrichards2442]

The belt feed and the ammo drum just looks so good. The custom with the quad gatlings just feels weird without a feasible means of feeding them.

[@Metsudo82]

Funny, I just started re-watching wing recently too.

[@alexlee1443]

Love all the jobbythehong references 🤣

[@TaKevinT]

Anything to hear Gundam's voice

[@jessicascalf7333]

I so loved this anime when I was in school, it too was my first taste of the gundam series. I still even have my old Wing Zero model kit I got. Shame I lost the Death Scythe one.

[@FrozenHawkHunter]

You seem a lot calmer here. Good for you GUNDUM. 🖖🖒👍👏

Omfg! My favorite Gundam in Wing

[@CIS115DK]

Thanks for the information gundam

[@CushionRide]

OMG i want to get one now. i wonder if the endless waltz version is available

[@beardedfeline1202]

Heavy Arms was my main in Battle Assault 2!

[@jasonalbores4111]

i got all five of them but scared to death to paint them. any tips where I can practice? should I buy HG kits?

I remember my first wing kit. And yeah the back legs are finicky AF

[@MasterDrawer101]

Impressive work.

[@Bayocand]

Don't forget the tall geese though 😉.

Can attest to all the shortcomings of the H-arms, did a H-arms custom a few years ago, i am GLAD they don't make them like they used to.

[@dakotaward8792]

Heavy arms is one of my favorites, this and Deathscythe.

[@Hongsta]

Love gundam love your other channel just subbed and wanted to say hi keep it up man

[@jp-sn4lf]

Ya'll gonna hate me for this...... but I love gundam seed and it was my first gundam series

[@XxDarkmasterxXx]

It has pretty good ratings and Chris Hansen approves so fuck em if they hate XD

[@jerichogm14]

Don't worry. Everyone has their own entry points to the series. Wing was my first and I love it to this day but it definitely had a lot of detractors when it came out. Also, Seed had some great mobile suits. Buster Gundam is one of my favorites but I really liked the Strike Gundam (esp. Sword Strike) as well.

[@uBpGK]

Gundam Wing was my introduction to anime and gundam too and as a adult I love the UC universe more but wing will always stay with me. Fantastic paint work tho I’m so happy another Native America enjoys this hobby as well lol I’m still working on my Pg Johnny Rocket Zaku but I’m afraid of finishing it since my nephew would love to play with it but he’s too rough with his toys but good luck with both channels. Nizhoni paint jobs

[@genoman3]

Gundam, that Gundam turned out great and its one of my personal favorite Gundams. Glad your having fun Gundam with your Gundam models. Gundam

[@levi2482]

Hey It'sAGundam, I'm in the process of painting my PG Gundam strike and I was wondering how you get a nice weathered look on the flat colours.

[@ItsAGunpla]

I used tamiya weathering powderd I have all 6, but for the base I also used oil paint.

[@levi2482]

@@ItsAGunpla I use acrylic paints, but I'll look into the weathering powder.

Yooo I have him so painting is the way cause yours looks dope

[@PyroDaChemist]

OMFG, I remember doing this model and you brought back those damn memories of the horrid flappy parts that be damned to stay where you wanted them, and what seemed like the geriatric knees (nice to know it wasn't just me)

[@beatngu8022]

Bro nice vid, did you have problems with the decals? Just finnished my H.A. and bloody decals are a pain! My leg hatches were pretty tight.

[@trentv4162]

Been watching Wing lately my favorites so far are the Deathscythe and the Heavyarms Gundams... I love the Endless Walts iterations due to them being Katoki designs and I recently ordered the Mg Deathscythe Ew, RG Zeta and RG 00, I am hyped for it but not sure how good its going to be.. By the way your hanger looks awesome, turned out amazing man...

[@retro13roxas]

Ooooooooh baby heavy arms was my favorite gundam

[@DigiCube4]

Wing is still my absolute favorite version of it. It doesn't feel like "anime". It felt like Gundam without the "this is my destiny and i'm only a highschool~".

[@TrueCicero]

God damn that is some sexy work Gundam

[@Phanbot01]

I've always been a big fan of Babdai's Perfect Grade Gundam models. I own 3 of them plus a Perfect Grade Evangelion Unit-01 model. I haven't tried painting them though.

[@BakiX]

Heavy Arms was my favorite Gundam in Wing. You sir, earn a huge thumbs up for that. Also, I cant really be certain but I somewhat remember a blue varient of heavy arms in the Gundam Wing movie? Its been many years so I could have just imagined that tho lol. Great lookin job tho.

[@fotzegamingandmedia1840]

Speak to me Gundam. I need your words. My life just ended today, I could use your wisdom

[@yuukikonnoaides]

Hell yeah, Heavyarms! I got an HG EW version of it. I got it because it was cheap and... well, it's the friggin Heavyarms. Anyway, looking forward to more.

[@goos4711]

[@inkmanro5844]

Love it

[@xamit1u]

File down the connector parts after painting. You can do the chest pieces with a tooth pick. I have the other HA (same scale) but I haven't painted it but I have the same scale of the Custom which I painted and I had the same issue. toothpick did the trick.

[@modelkitfilms5704]

love it

[@manillafb06]

I believe the Turn A and Turn X master grades are average sized.... The crossbone ones are the smaller MGs

[@lovecchio420]

The turn x is huge and definitely not a average size. Turn a is average. F91, wing, and crossbone are tiny in 1/100

[@KibbloMkII]

my first Gundam MG I think, after the PG rx-78 being my first gunpla one of my favorite suits, fun to build, but the left arm falls off at the drop of a hat, the chest armor has mysteriously cracked, the forearm panels have snapped on one side, the antenna have snapped off, and then the handle of the Gatling broke in half. I love the kit, but its on permanent back in box until can budget it in some glue. need to get the Heavyarms Custom MG though

[@chilinobeans4335]

Don’t think you cursed one time in that video very nice

[@TalkToMeQA78]

I like it!!
