THE PERFECT CODE GEASS KITS STILL EXIST | HG Gawain Review

[@shadou5461]

Im actually mad cuz I didn’t even know this existed until I saw you post abt it

[@calvinietivieyepie9494]

Same

[@OtonashiV]

When it's a P-Bandai in Japan with a full color box, that usually means it's a retail release outside of Japan. This was the case with the HG Lancelot Albion and Guren Seiten in the same line, as well kits like the MG XN Raiser, MG Astray Red Dragon, and the Build Battlogue kits. I think there have only been a few exceptions to this, like the MG F90.

[@febcortes5878]

Both the Lancelot and Guren (along with the Gawain) were Pbandai releases here in SE Asia (Philippines).

[@OtonashiV]

@@febcortes5878 I see. They were retail in the US.

[@reijigamer]

what you say is essentially true if you exclude Gundam and probably 30 Minutes lines P-Bandai. There were/are a few Gunpla that were released purposely as P-Bandai in Japan only but retail outside of Japan. P-Bandai Gunpla getting a full color box doesn't inherently mean it was going to be retail outside of Japan.

[@OtonashiV]

@@reijigamer tbh I forgot that there are P-Bandai exclusive 30 MM/MS kits. What are some other P-Bandai gunpla with full color boxes that weren't available as retail releases in at least one region outside of Japan besides the MG F90 and its Mars variant? I think the vast majority of P-Bandai kits with full color boxes happened to be retail releases outside of Japan.

[@Matanumi]

@@OtonashiV they were? Never saw em

[@mindwipe8788]

The moment I saw this in the anime, it became my favorite Knightmare frame from Code Geass, don’t get me wrong the Gurren and Lancelot are also awesome mecha but I became enamored with this mecha more.

[@Matanumi]

A fan favourite of many- how it was Gundam jacked.... how powerful it was, two seater. One of the few mecha that can fly. Black and gold Egyptian style god of death pose to death, T pose to kill.... what's not to like? Only weakness was it was very slow

[@Darkgeran7]

Same however they just ditched it in season 2

[@Kepora1]

This ABSOLUTELY needs a Jackal face for Gunpla Anubis.

[@Xolivas1]

Right? This thing SCREAMS Anubis.

[@kamenriderovant9676]

Kotobukiya reissued Z.O.E. Anubis last year or this year.

[@Sazabi4prez]

Only men of culture keep hearing a snarky robotic "varlets" everytime Mecha says hadron

[@sweetinvictus654]

varlets. you must complete your backlog in ritual to the omnissiah

[@Ethan_488]

Got this a few days ago, enjoyed every minute of it. Apart from the slash harken fingers (had to glue them) and some of the under-gating. I hope they expand upon this series, some grunts would be nice. I could see a 30mm series for grunts being extremely popular as they were extremely modular in the anime

[@stealthygull2715]

How did you buy it?

[@Ethan_488]

@@stealthygull2715 through mandarake, it comes back into stock every few weeks, it’s in stock atm, 8000 yen + shipping

[@KrimsonWing]

I think the gold on this actually works really well with the gloss black

[@strato991]

aw goddamnit, i tottally missed this was P-Bandai cause of the box.

[@NeoSlashott]

My favorite Knightmare of the series. And a nice, dark, glossy armor finish. 😊😊

[@Supahsenpai]

Always preferred the Gawain over the Shinkiro

[@dominiciancabatit6012]

Oh wow. I didn't expect it to be that big! Even the box. I just ordered mine the other day and I'm waiting for it to arrive. Thanks for the warning about the brittleness of the black armor parts. I wish I can be careful with them. Been waiting for this Gawain to have a kit. It's Lulu's first Knightmare Frame. Here's to wishing Shinkiro will have its kit too in the future.

[@probablychuuni]

Unfortunate that it's P-Bandai. However, the PB HG Lancelot was made retail internationally, but the HG Gurren was not. At least there's a chance it could be made retail.

[@Gaarafan007]

Code Geass is probably my #1 favourite anime, with the Gawain just being an awesome mech all around. I'm genuinely sad that I barely of the room for the gunpla I do have, nevermind awesome new finds like this.

[@josephsuh525]

I'm still mad that they never even give us a Grunt units.

[@amatsu7619]

These HG code geass kits could have sold very very well if they were regular releases especially with the new anime coming. I'm still looking forward to Shinkiro next and I'd buy it even at scalper price. That is how much of a scker I am for Lelouch's personal nightmare frames

[@reijigamer]

The new HG Majin Hero Wataru line started with P-Bandai kits then continued with new regular release kits so maybe this could be the same for Code Geass. Though there might be rights issues with the original series that will make the original series' kits P-Bandai

[@riffska]

Nah fr cuz I been wanting the Guren Seiten for ages but here where I'm from (malaysia) it's a whole 350 bucks in our currency. Some are even selling it for 600-700 lmfao

[@birumerah2896]

T-pose of death

[@Ejack69]

Day 44 of asking Mecha Gaikotsu to review the Sentinel Riobot Gurren Lagann

[@basicfacekick]

I had no idea they did a HG Guren.! Damn, behind the times here. Either I import that or buy the Metal Robot version. They're both surprisingly pricey.

[@RocketSlug]

Fingers crossed that the Shinkiro will get a kit, too

[@maliff88]

well it did assert dominance by t-posing.... honestly i actually wanna see if bandai will release the knights' of rounds units.

[@leorojas6390]

I'm jealous that these kits are still P-bandai. But it's cool to see the Gawain in pure HG form. Now i wanna see an HG Shinkiro.

[@thedeadman4481]

Does anyone know where I can still get this for a pretty decent price? All the ones I keep finding are $100 now especially on eBay.

[@juanmiguelsebastian1477]

the name ia gawain, a knight from the arthurian legends yet its appearance is that of anubis, a god of egyptian mythos

[@AndreaDoesYoga]

The HG Gawain is a hidden gem, truly a perfect kit! 🤩👌

[@squidmember6793]

You know it’s big when the fingers are jointed

[@THE_ONE_PIECE_IS_REAL56]

i have this kit and the slash harkens dont fall off

[@richterzacarias6182]

There is a lot of good nightmare frame to be a model kit I hope Bandai make a lot more of them

[@dvillain4136]

My second favourite nightmare frame.

[@nikolausnikolausnikolaus]

What's your favourite?

[@loveanimeforever9115]

I'm waiting for my delivery. Code grass is my favorite anime. Once my dragon scale Lancelot comes, I'll have the Gawain, Lancelot and the Guren

[@даниилпрохоров-о4е]

You must take something like fishing wire or guitar string , that cannot bend , paint it in black and then glue into the hand and fingers

[@postsart]

I've got this coming in the mail, waiting on pbandai to ship, can't wait for my t-posing anubis

[@haq0577]

holly molly, anubis design 😮

[@micmic2346]

I hope they will also release the knightmare units of round of the table like galahad, mordred, tristan, etc.

[@cprngflame6011]

desk tour soon?

[@shovelchop81bikeralex52]

Damn that looks nice! It's pronounced Gwayne, like the knight from King Arthur, it's a Welsh name.

[@ismailalias9466]

Huh,what a coincidence,i just preorder gawain(snaa) yesterday and i just realized there's another kit with the same name😂

[@isana7333]

just arrived mine yesterday! gamble af during pbandai open pre order

[@Brian-fh8pq]

my all time fav mech from geass....locked behind p bandai 🙃

[@AmandaBarnhart-zk8ez]

nice video, it looks like anubis

[@SixArmedSweater]

Of COURSE it’s P-Bandai. I swear they’d release every kit there if they could.

[@carloeugenejuan6876]

now we just need a metal build version of this

[@abe7043]

I hope they keep making more code geass kit and metal build

[@ranamores4919]

Wow. What a masterpiece of a centerpiece😢😢 Gotta get my hands on this😢😢

[@ShadowNerd92]

Meant to grab this when i got paid but couldnt due to the site crashing in US for 7+ days and they didnt extend the end date!

[@andreamendikovic9102]

The kit looks really awesome, i hope Bandai will release more Code Geass kits in the future PS: What happened to your second channel, Mecha builds?

[@kimchhayngov1826]

I have a request/question can you make a review of the pg astray red frame and if you are planning when and if you have it in your back log. I'd love to see it

[@jonathanlocke1593]

This is great and a beautiful design, one of my favourites but given its price and rarity i think i'll stick with my robot spirits Gawain.

[@kolinmartz]

Shame we never got a high grade secondary character code geass kits. I’d bust if they ever made todo’s gekka/akatsuki, or cornelia’s glouchester

[@colinmasterson666]

13:59 The Gawain dabbing. I never thought I’d see something so blerssed in my life…

[@travisfranz703]

Fuck I cant wait for this to show up in the mail anyday now

[@therestingmitchface6241]

Super random, but where do you get those small shelving units on your desk? Been looking for a while personally but I can’t find anything close to yours

[@taddad2641]

christ i wish they do a model kit line of code geass in full. i'd spend so much fucking money to just have ALLLL of them. theeariler generation to the greater generation.

[@j00bs]

gawain rhymes with pain

[@SoulstrikerV]

First time I ever thought it looked like a mech from Zone of the Enders when I saw this video's thumbnail. It just needs a larger, bulkier front skirt armor.

[@Sky-ur1wk]

Just keep giving me more code geass kits please

[@petroniloferraroiii3455]

ALL HAIL LELOUCH!

[@xiongyang1470]

why dont barbato rex have those hand XD

[@robinrondo]

Looks great, shame it’s P-Bandai

[@vustvaleo8068]

also the joke is that the Gawain got Gundam SEED hijacked by Lelouch and C.C. because whoever the pilots are left the Knightmare Frame with the keys in the ignition as they had a toilet break or something, even funnier Lelouch and C.C. were trying to escape and they found it convenient there was no one even tried to guard the Gawain's cockpit.

[@Monoshiii]

it has similarities to the pharact's frame

[@migueldelcastillo7269]

Gotta do black luster soldier!

[@lordofalltime]

it's name is Welsh and pronounced : GA - WAYNE

[@ArcadiaCortez]

I'm currently building mine as well XD

[@gsoto239]

The Gawain is so cool.

[@lordskull372]

Hydran cannons

[@elmorientez3787]

So sick of the amount of stuff we get screwed over with it being P-Bandai. We need a P-Bandai UK store.

Hey mecha try built other than bandai kit

[@bazanabwadashatshat1908]

Day 1 of asking Mecha Gaikotsu to review the Reborns Gundam from gundam 00

[@TheMegamaster44]

I give it a 1 out of 10 because it’s p Bandai if it wasn’t like an 8

[@wulf8889]

The box is in that size and shape cuz they're trying to get rid of their MG boxes lying around in their warehouses 😛

[@JohnnyBurnes]

Gawain could've been the tabloid name for when Gwen Stefani and Gavin Rosdale were dating.

Code Geass x Wing Gundam Zero

[@HarmonyEdge]

IIRC in the crossover they showed a purple Wing Zero that Lelouch would pilot. I am hoping for a new mold HG Wing Zero EW that I can customize with the core Alus Gundam head, which if you paint the V-fin mustache yellow, resembles the geass symbol, plus paint the rest of the unit to match, makes it look like Zero's costume...

[@MrDarksol]

Headcanon:Lelouch has Siri installed in the Gawain in an AU just because so thank you Mecha lol. Still mad that this is a P bandai despite it literally used by the main character, but still a cool model kit!

[@froakie14]

2 months team 👇

[@friday1773]

What do you mean by “injection”? I dont get it

[@JJTheDev]

if you mean the gold, it means the gold colour is recreated purely with plastic, rather than plated (think the shiny gold of akatsuki or hyakushiki, a method of painting), or painted directly (dunno if these appear in Bandai model kits)

[@Kefkaownsall]

You inject plastic into molds to make pieces

[@_LH101_]

Man I am now regret that i didn't buy this kit when there was a seller in Vietnam 1-2 months ago Edit: a months ago

[@SeiferTan]

Nice！

[@OldSpaghettifactory89]

this existed???? it was p bandai???? god fucking dam it

[@Quarataia]

Why Bandai? Why premium!?

Why tf did they named the LITERAL BLACK AND GOLD JACKAL MECH freaking ""GAWAIN"" like, WHYY

Man why'd this thing have to be PBandai
