Sugumi Kanagata - Megami Device x Alice Gear Aegis UNBOXING and Review!

[@fantastiCkiLler92]

Just for someone who is wondering, she is a modeler in the game so the weapon theme is obviously a giant airbrush. It's design by Kanetake Ebikawa if you think that wings look like 00 Sky :P And if you know japanese, her name is pretty interesting as well. Kanagata means, molds(金潟and金型share the same pronunciation) And Sugumi (すぐみ/素組) means straight build, yup.

[@ZakuAurelius]

Interesting!

[@NeoSlashott]

Her hair strikes the resemblance of SOL Raptor's. As you read at the box description itself. 🥰

[@akiradkcn]

So happy to know that Alice Gear Aegis is getting a console game

[@Icyko]

I'm excited to build this kit myself. I love the sharp features everywhere!

[@FreakGeSt]

Sugumi is the plamo girl of the game, lore wise she make all the Alice Gear Aegis plamos taking measures of the girls, I think. But I'm sure is thanks to her the collab with Megami Device is posible and we get those nice Alice Gear Aegis plamos.

[@fantastiCkiLler92]

Yeah, but the downside is some of the character are in figma line. The QC is kinda hit and miss...

[@chatspam1238]

oh man Ive been waiting for this review!

[@hondacivet]

Damn this kit rules. Did not expect that level of color separation especially since the older kits in this line were often really disappointing in that regard.

[@grin3670]

ive been wondering if there is a male version of kit like this. and i try seaching but couldnt seem find one. i really wish they would make something like that. it would be pretty sick i think😅

[@ShiningHatsya]

I wonder what would Kotobukiya take to do Rin Himukai in Megami Device proportion / style? I already have her in Desktop Army .

[@Simon-hz7jl]

I honestly didn’t expect you would be reviewing this kit sir! Thank you very much! Do you mind if I use your ‘runner shooting effect’ idea sir? It actually blended well with the connector piece.

[@ZakuAurelius]

Actually that wasn’t a runner piece, but a leftover part from the runner originally used for Sitara, iirc

[@Simon-hz7jl]

@@ZakuAurelius Thank you for the clarification sir! Ahh, that is too bad since I don’t have any version of Sitara.

[@d9_1056]

Zapdos custom incoming

[@glenrussell5242]

We can plug a figma head on these kits? Wow

[@johnjones3036]

What type of turn table do you use

[@geraldge1562]

I love this kit and I love Sugumi in the game too she is really fun to use. She even builds model kits and she is a kamen rider in the story. Very nice

[@ying3966]

When I built mine, honestly first thought of the gun was an airbrush.

[@geraldge1562]

@@ying3966 I think they modeled an airbrush for it because she builds model kits.

[@vustvaleo8068]

her rifle is meant to look like an airbrush because her bio mentions she loves to build plastic model kits.

[@garrettvenn9022]

I still haven't built her gear yet; I've only built her base form so far. It's pretty daunting, because aside from Sitara, she has the biggest gear yet. Also after Sitara, she has my second-favorite color scheme. Unfortunately, I got distracted by some other kits that arrived around the same time she did. I'm looking more forward to Mutsumi, now that she's going on preorder everywhere. [continues watching] AWWW, I thought for sure you would say something about her rifle being a giant airbrush! Son, I am disappoint.

[@ZakuAurelius]

Haha I thought it pretty obvious, but also not that interesting to point out 😅 And tbh, the color scheme was one of the reasons I wasn’t too interested at first. The yellow/white/black seemed kinda boring. Like a sports team’s colors. But the kit is so cool overall, it grew on me a lot

[@garrettvenn9022]

@@ZakuAurelius >sports team's colors Oh, you mean like them Steelers or Bruins? >=J

[@ch-ev5ee]

As someone who owned the kit before watching this video, I really like the kit, building it was really fun. the only downside is that the base is not good, she has too much armor that it's making her wobble a whole lot.

[@chatspam1238]

Id highly recommend a hresvelgr kit especially since hresvelgr ater is being reprinted. Among the frame arms girls she's in my opinion, the one with the most accesories and options among the frame arms girls.

[@ying3966]

Honestly this is why I love the frame arms girl/megami device, but now figma? I'm not sure if they ever try to market it (they also show in stock photo's sometimes) but every single kit gives you accessories and options for other kits. Legitimate custom kitbash without going through the extra tidbits like shaving off pieces of plastics and gluing them to make it fit. I've also seen a new trend amongst Japanese kit YT builders/reddit to create the feeling of 3d eyes by using drills and/or dremels (I've also saved a link on what they use at HLJ) so in that regard that would go into custom kitbashing. TBH I saw the kit bash YT video of asra nine tails (OG white) with pretty little red because I heard of the nine tails was getting reprinted and pretty little red is coming soon to the states or USAGS pretty soon (I hope...I preordered). Wouldn't mind seeing sugumi kitbashing with either those two.

[@fantastiCkiLler92]

I have the hresvelgr ater, both Robot and FA-Girl. Great kit and the nice thing about the FA-Girl hresvelgr ater is that clear parts look gorgeous! Plus you get the flying base in the kit which is a huge plus.

[@ZakuAurelius]

Planning to review her with the upcoming reissue! Just wish I didn’t miss the beach version 😭

[@gtanusetiawan]

I always think she feels like she came from gundam seed because of her backpack design 🤣

[@dressdown3110]

I think she looks pretty good

[@ZakuAurelius]

Indeed!

[@rokushou]

The backpack wing effect parts remind me of Gundam 00 Sky.

[@fantastiCkiLler92]

Fun fact, same designer

[@ZakuAurelius]

Reminded me more of the Victory, but I definitely seen that too

[@chatspam1238]

BTW Are you planning on reviewing Arcanadea lumitea zaku? It looks like the best koto kit they've put out so far.

[@ZakuAurelius]

Yes! I was actually sent two from Kotobukiya directly 🙏 so I’ll be giving one away to y’all!

[@mightyleg1439]

wish I had a Megami Device

[@ralfsstuff]

Same story as always. Could've gotten one but didn't. Thankfully I got Susanowo without problems. Any chance of seeing a review on her?

[@ZakuAurelius]

Yes that review will be coming! This kit currently available and on sale I believe at USAGS

[@ying3966]

@@ZakuAurelius Waku waku (sorry if I had to use that meme...) Any updates on susanowo? I've luckily preordered without a problem as soon as I got the email (although I did add a PuP figure...). I've got the email about bullet knight exorcist and executioner but nothing about susanowo including it says OOS compared to those two bullet knights. (or is the PuP figure holding it back)

[@ZakuAurelius]

@@ying3966 I would assume it’s on the either in the same shipment possibly or pretty soon. I can check!

[@bitetheasp]

She's cool looking, but if I had her, I'd be really boring and leave all the equipment off of her. So cute!

[@razrafz]

thought it looked cool, but its really pricey and feels kinda too busy with all the stuff

[@ZakuAurelius]

It is very busy at the back. But the design grew on me a lot after building
