A review of the MASTER GRADE MSZ-006 ZETA GUNDAM VERSION 2.0.
331 Subs? O_O That's crazy, especially with how I almost never upload lol. Also this is review number 11 I think.
- Production notes -
-This was a very experimental review. I've updated a lot of my equipment, so this took extra long to make lol. Right now I'm just trying to emulate how these reviews looked previously. Ya know, get back up to par. The next review (Probably Gundam Alex) should be a bit better produced....
-This is the first review edited in Adobe Premiere. Up until now, it's been capturing footage with a Cannon SL1, a 50mm, then edit still images in a cracked 2012 version of Photoshop, and video in a cracked 2013 version of Sony Vegas. So I decided to buckle down and invest in Adobe Creative Cloud. That's why this took so long to come out lol
-I also recently got a small Polaroid LED light. It's nothing special, but it does wonders on small stuff like model kits. There are a few shots in here that were just over powered by it though, which created a little more shadows than usual.
-I'm thinking about finally including some kind of Top Gear style leader board at the end of these reviews. It might add a bit more importance to the actual numbers and it'd be fun to compare and contrast. But I'm nervous it would give away the reviews of other kits and make people not watch them. Hmmmmm...
Wow, thanks for reading all that. I hope it helps you in whatever video production you do. Here's a reward: • 黒沢律子 Ritsuko Kurosawa／...

Surprisingly, Zeta Gundam is one of the tallest Gundam despite of his looks.

[@blazeroblox56]

then there's the ZZ. Also, I like your profile image :^)

[@jordan_ys]

@@blazeroblox56 thanks

[@laplantamichay]

unlike it's pilot, Kamille

[@justpassingby298]

the cool thing about the stand is that if you get the 2.0 AEUG mk II, you can combine its base with the zeta's, to make it look like zeta is launching/getting ready to launch, while mk II is waiting to do the same

[@LizarusMovies]

i just loove your videos! the structure, rating system, music and talkover, i think its pretty much perfect. Plus i like that you mostly focus on UC. keep it up man, i hope there`s great things yet to come : )

[@4cheech]

Love how you review the articulation part by part. Great job man, keep up.

[@redheadphones6]

Thanks!

[@fatalstriker1310]

Glad to see that you will be continuing these types of reviews, keep it up.

[@redheadphones6]

Thanks!

[@nediojon749]

This is a lot more positive than some of the other reviews I’ve seen on this kit

[@johncrisponce7184]

Another great review for one of my favorite kits. I hope the next review won't take too long to finish :)

[@terutend077]

man I just subbed the other day and have been searching for a short simple review of the Zeta 2.0, and here you deliver. Great review overall. If possible, could you review the Hyaku Shiki 2.0 to complete the trio?

[@redheadphones6]

Thank! Now that you mention it, I'm sorta obligated to review the Hyaku Shiki 2.0 now lol I'll get right on it.

[@terutend077]

Sweet! Can't wait for it to pop up in my subs!!

[@Dargo_001]

Fantastic review, I'm gonna buy this model kit!

[@markjosephbautista3220]

I really love the Zeta. This is one of my favorite Gundam. I don't worry on the articulations. It is okay for me.

[@steffy2]

aaannnd you got a new sub . I love the point system , it keeps it nice and short while giving enought information ^^ it also helps to compare kits .

[@steffy2]

also : you might want to check out the new hguc zeta g.e.p . it has a great look is solid and see4ms to have amazing articulation . I might get the mg zeta plus c1 , it isnt based of this mold but it looks better imo

[@redheadphones6]

Thanks! That new HG Zeta looks great. I like how Bandai sorta realized they weren't gonna get an HG to transform without extra parts, so they decided to focus on articulation instead. I bet it'll be able to pull off some great poses. I have a MG Zeta Plus C1, and it's pretty cool, you'll like it. The articulation isn't as good this 2.0, but the Zeta Plus looks so cool it's not that big a deal lol

[@wilbow6298]

Just bought this kit cause after i saw your review i fell in love. Thanks a lot

[@avellanozagunpla9074]

This kit was so awsome yet so handsome ! Zeta and ZZ gundam i highly recommend

[@Pyroraptor16]

I wanna get this kit and paint it up to look like Starscream. it just works too well

[@Bobert2020]

Just have to change the face

[@jm-yc5tc]

Great review bro.😁

[@darkscorpion6534]

I want one of these to go along with my SD Zeta!

[@titan133760]

Will you be reviewing the upcoming Zeta Gundam Ver. Ka. when it's released? It seems that they're attempting to stay true to the anime lineart instead of the usual Katoki style look, and they're aiming to improve the transformation and articulation

[@tedhodge4830]

To be honest, I don't know that the Ver Ka is exactly staying true to the lineart. It's closer than the 2.0, but the side by side pictures make it obvious that there are still a ton of differences.

[@jjuan4382]

Talk about living the sign of zeta this kit is awesome Edit: tydes have turned

[@mechalexz1010]

What do you think of it?

[@raku2642]

great vid! how did you get the paint in the vents with such clean application?

[@joshuahensley9395]

man you gotta start putting music credits in your description, i love your taste in music

[@highhunter1st]

I didn't seem to have the same problem that you had when it came to the legs maybe it was due to the sanding process? Though the plastic felt brittle in certain spots

[@lividproductions841]

One thing nobody seems to say is wrong with this kit is that the clamps that hold the polycap for the front ankle armor are prone to breakage. I was posing and the front ankle armor came right off. This kit is fragile, my dudes. Definitely deserves the 'Master' label.

[@paulheap1982]

So cause it happened to you, it stands to reason its the same for everyone.

[@galaxyjfoster4554]

Hey guys my first kits were a hg 1/100 dynames and mg 2.0 zeta and feel like it worn out and had issues with my zeta arms sticking in. What to do with them.

[@LizarusMovies]

Do you also have a rewiev of the double Zeta (ZZ) gundam? : )

[@galaxyjfoster4554]

hey i have a zeta 2.0 mg kit but cant fine the handles for the beam sabers can anyone tell me which sheet its on

[@MultiQsan]

Cockpit feature, does the pilot seat have articulation so that the figure is sitting upright in Mobile Suit mode?

[@lucwatoa8775]

i recomend u to pls do the transformation secuence next time, a lot of people look for reviews just to see the transformation, dont skip it!

[@xxEmmankunnArt]

yeah, cause sometimes the transformation undermines the actual build and becomes a grenade

[@beepbeeplettuce5890]

If only it had some kind of information booklet to tell you the transformation, an instruction manual if you will... Maybe someday such a crazy thing will exist

[@lucwatoa8775]

@@beepbeeplettuce5890 Come on.. isnt that hard, when i wrote that coment i didnt have the kit, now i do, i know isnt like a g1 transformer, like 2 or 3 steps, and that handling isnt the easiest thing but.. at least any part fell off or something..

[@taoyizhi]

Great review! I'm thinking about getting one in the states. Where did you get your kit?

[@redheadphones6]

Thanks! I was lucky and picked mine up while I was in Japan. But when I'm in the states I use Hobbylink and Amazon. Hobby link is good because it tells you the shipping costs up-front, which is super nice. But honestly, more and more I'm using Amazon. The prices are dropping pretty fast and some kits even have Prime 2 day shipping.

[@SeanyBoy589]

Honestly, every kit I have gotten so far is from amazon, I find it to be the msot simple an easy to use, and their library of kits is very very large and increases everytime a new kit comes out, can also be quite speedy as well, typically I find my kits arrive about 3-6 days early.

[@RezaQin]

The HG was my first kit and it was fun, despite being a little janky.

[@FrankW1029]

wish i saw your channel sooner, great simple reviews. kind of cool looking at these review after i built these right when they first came out. Zeta is my favorite suit of all time. i actually have this and the "white unicorn" Z-3. i think the leg you may have left something loose or cut away too much of something, but then again i built these when they came out maybe reissue or aged kits had something to do with it. that joint on both of mine are super tight. for this kit to stand more stable you need to angle out his thigh to a 45 degree and rock the ankle as far in as possible with the toe pointing outwards.

[@grin3670]

Just finished building this gundam today

[@LizarusMovies]

Could you do a review on the MG Victory gundam?

[@Amatsaru29]

1 question, which kit is more frustrating? MG Zeta Plus' or Zeta 2.0? After watching the MG Zeta Plus video, the kit seems pretty good for its age, and currently with my 2.0 the feet are a kit killer for me.

[@redheadphones6]

I'd say it depends if you have the kits aerial or not. On the ground, the Zeta Plus is a bit easier to pose because the feet are sturdier, while the Zeta is a nightmare because of the heels. But in the air, the Zeta 2.0 can get much better poses. Of course, the Zeta 2.0 is still a better kit imo, it looks better, better/more weapons, more interesting build, and (on paper at least) better articulation. It's just undercut by all those transforming sections.

[@Arthur_mungus]

does this thing have the grenade launcher in the arm?

[@lucwatoa8775]

But dont missunderstand, ur reviews are gr8, showing the inner frame its also something that not all reviewers do, and its important for me. gr8 videos m8

[@cinese_resuscitato9311]

Oh, i have experiences with normal model (like tanks and plane) but I never built a Gumpla. I’ve already bought this kit online, is really that difficult?

[@redheadphones6]

You'll have no problem coming from a more traditional model background. Everything snaps together well, with no need for glue like on tanks or plane kits. It shouldn't be too difficult for you. The manual does a good job of explaining things as well.

[@Amatsaru29]

Would it be wise to convert the Zeta 2.0 into a Zeta plus (C1, A1, etc)? Or would it be worth while to just get the MG Zeta plus?

[@fripplicious7466]

Zeta plus isn't that bad

[@user-lynKx]

We need a Ver. Ka of the Zeta

[@ricardo_alemanes]

I have the z ver. 1, the z ver 2. z plus c1 and yellow z gray

[@jacob_n_r_z8755]

I don't know why my zeta has loose joints out of the box?

[@OJMAH]

i have no issue on ground posing at all. the problem is not on the kit.

Do the 3.0 gundam rx-78-2 please

What’s the intro song

please do a Zeta Ver.Ka review

I must have a much older version.

[@0Heeroyuy01]

i want one of these just to make a rgz 91 out of it

[@AssaultRider555]

I hope they make a 3.0 of this to fix this kit's issues.

[@gideonthangcin8179]

Honestly I wish they remade a lot of transforming Gundams and took out the transformation gimmick, like a victory that isn’t a plastic Grenade

@@gideonthangcin8179 what's wrong with the MG victory, anyway? What exactly makes it a hand grenade?

[@Bobert2020]

@@AssaultRider555 The waist disconnects a lot and the articulation isn't great due to the transformation and since Katoki decided to follow the line art for the first time

[@Mech45pro]

Can't wait for the ver ka

[@UC1180_]

I’ve never had a problem with it holding its weapons

[@wewyllenium]

curious why they omitted the landing gears.

[@kelnhide]

It’s not supposed to have one. The MS is its main mode, not the waverider.

[@wewyllenium]

@@kelnhide The old MG had landing gears, the PG had langing gears, This can have langing grars as the sleds are detachable from the shield and wings but the lags are missing.

[@kelnhide]

wewyllenium as the guy said, they went with anime accurate. As far as I know the Zeta in the anime never showed any landing gears, it always landed while in MS form

[@wewyllenium]

@@kelnhide yeah, for colors. But I'm talking about optional parts. That display base ain't anime accurate. I was hoping the landing sled parts were there as well since the old ones are not compatible. Bandai bothered with inner frame details but skipped the landing gears. If you want to see anime accurate looks, check out the old 1/144, not the HGUC release. For me, that looks more like the cartoons.

[@Bobert2020]

@@wewyllenium I guess they thought that you would always use the included base which is most likely why it was included

[@Gigas0101]

I figured the transformation would've been included in Articulation. Though I also figured you might have done a transformation walk-through but I may have been spoiled by Transformers channels. Great video, thanks for the review!

[@riceboycruz1300]

MG Unicorn?

[@Amatsaru29]

Sad that this was my first master grade, could've done a better job with the experience I racked up overtime.

[@peng9923]

I have a question, how much is it?

[@redheadphones6]

It depends on what site or story you buy from, and where you're shipping it to. But the usual price for the kit itself is around 5000 JPY

[@samuel54804]

Wow like in my country its like The Same as a hg well The price

I am like number 666. sorry im such a bad father figure Amuro.

[@l3xther3x86]

This is an awesome kit, but after the Ver Ka, it just can't compare. Especially if your a fan of the anime accurate design from katoki

[@thomaspickles9058]

i have to argue that transforming this guy takes me about 45 minutes either way lmao, but its kinda hard to ask for a better mg zeta than this

[@ricardo_alemanes]

when you say master grade sound like masrtubate.... LOL

[@fantastiCkiLler92]

It's funny to see that guy who claim himself an expert MG builder can't get this kit to stand up by it's own.

Lol Who’s that?

i say articulation deserves 3.8
