"$250 means a lot of different things to a lot of different people" ... Words of wisdom. Im a dad of 3 and couldn't possibly fathom spending $250 on this masterpiece. But know my friend i live vicariously through you. That was another great review. Your reviews got me and my kids into gunpla. Thank you for the hours of entertainment brotha please keep em coming.

[@reiamuro7515]

Father of two here. What I do is what I call "chip save". After all the expenses for the month taken care of, I chip a little money in a jar. Away from our bank savings. That way I dont feel guilt when I buy an expensive kit from my "chip". But if you are the " I could have bought blah blah with that money" type of guy, this wont work.

[@Heavy_Metal_Gunpla]

Not a parent (do dogs count tho?), but I agree with you guys. There's just not enough behind this kit to justify it being $250, especially when you could spend around half the price (maybe a bit more/less) to get nearly all these parts (plus some) to do the same kind of setup. FA Unicorn Ver Ka is about $80 (or less) now, a couple of Action Bases with adapters (price may vary) and boom; Poor Man's MGEX lol. I would include the MS Cage, but good luck trying to get one currently after the Expo last month lol.

[@ahab9715]

I watched this video three times before I finally couldn't control my impulses anymore. So far, I've built the base and the torso and I have to say that I agree that this build is extremely refreshing. There's so much fantastic undergating to all of the external armor panels and I swear I've done virtually zero nub clean up on any of it. The worst I've had to deal with is that harder dark gray plastic in the MS cage base and shield stands. But for the Unicorn itself? The parts are coming out extremely clean and I feel like that alone helps justify the price of this kit. Also, I don't find the build to be very difficult. It's mainly getting the LED strip to line up exactly where it needs to be that I find a bit annoying. Needle nose tweezers help a lot. It's gotten easier as I go though. The worst was just getting the cockpit and lower torso situated around the strip at first. Anyways, thanks for what you do. I thoroughly enjoy your videos.

8:03 I agree here. The best 1/144 scale version is RG. The best 1/100 scale version is MGEX. The best 1/60 scale version is PG. 12:12 I agree here as well. The fact that you're paying over $200 (US) for this kit yet they go with stickers on the v-fin? They should have at least included a non-transforming v-fin that is pre-painted in gold like the PG. You could always relatively easily paint it, but it's a bit of a shame that Bandai didn't go the extra mile. 15:47 I'm not surprised to see some parts being reused from older kits; albeit a little bit modified. You know, I wouldn't be surprised if Bandai releases a P-Bandai weapon add on set with 100% newly molded parts. Something like that would probably be for RX-0 Full Armor Unicorn Gundam 'Expansion Unit'. 18:08 Fold out penis 🤣 18:49 Storage penis 🤣 22:05 But wait! There's more! 🤣 28:26 Yea. As great as this MGEX is, the v-fin sticker kind of ruins the overall package. 34:12 I also wonder if Bandai will release an MGEX without the LED and instead include clear red and clear green psychoframe parts in additional the clear colorless psychoframe that this MG comes with. Without the LEDs, this won't be nearly as expensive. Bandai will probably reuse the MGEX RX-0 Unicorn to do the variants.

Definitely going to save up for this one. I hope they continue this new line, as I do like seeing just how much innovation they can pack into these kits. Also, had a thought for a video you could do from time to time. We all know that some kits eventually fall apart, or otherwise fail to maintain their original level of quality. A prime example of course is most early real grades. Because of this, I was thinking you could go back to a couple of older kits every few months or so just to update people on how they're holding up. Tell us how long you've had the model in question and how much posing and such you've done with it so we have a clue to how long a given kit might last and how much abuse it can take before it's initial level of quality begins to fail. Call it "Throwback Updates" or something.

For those who are uncertain, the 1/48 Mega Size is basically a massive High Grade kit. Meaning it can’t transform, the V-Fin is one solid color, you can paint the back with white, so there’s that. However, it does have a little more technology than being just a massive HG kit. I don’t have it, nor do I plan to get it, but you do you. If it’s your first model kit, then you’ll need some shelf space. But, the pieces are very large, so you’ll (hopefully) have a good time building it

15:12 Bandai when deciding the price for this guy 15:19 Bandai after the price announcement

[@Lemuzaurio_streams]

I saw this one today at a store and wondered about the price for a MG but...yeah...I'm in love after watching this, I'm getting it!

[@Mowgli135]

@Mecha Gaikotsu, Im still wondering how the LEDs died. Either im guessing at 36:32 or smth else, pls I need to know.

[@MechaGaikotsu]

Just died temporarily from overuse during the review. I think it might just be a built in protective thing to stop them getting damaged. They were fine again the next morning, and have been fine since.

[@mashedindaed]

I've only just started with the gunpla hobby and for a first model I thought I would jump straight in with a MG. It was the perfect choice for grade but the model I went for really wasn't the best pick. Little did I know how old of a kit Zephyranthes was. I didn't let it put me off and after finding your channel I now have RG Tallgeese and HG Beyond Global under my best and can't wait to get more. I think the Wing Zero EW Ver Ka released in Nov will be my next one.

I light up the megasize Unicorn using around 80 LEDs. I repainted it with the same color and deymm I can't get enough just by looking at it! Definitely a head turner!

[@jacobdavis6604]

I'd love to see a release of this without the LED strips and a colored plastic psycho frame. It would blow the Unicorn Ver.Ka out of the water, and hopefully be a little more manageable in price.

[@yohandatuba3904]

The LEDs shining through the cracks looks so awesome!

[@BonnCanlasGaming45]

Not a Gundam fan, but I like building Gunplas, and this thing's cool.

[@brian728]

This review is absolutely amazing. The resolution is absolutely fantastic. Grade A absolutely amazing fantastic review.

[@ravensharpless]

I'm completely blown away by the proportions of this new Unicorn. The old mg was always lacking something, this one has thicker legs which reminds me of Megas XLR. Is this model itself considered Ver. Ka and does anyone think it'll be released without all of the expensive stuff?

[@bruh7644]

If I'm not wrong there is a ver.ka without the leds it's just gundam unicorn ver.ka

[@CanonicalBomb]

MGEX STRIKE FREEDOM OMG EVERY MG PUSHED BACK FOR THIS

[@nippyhobbies4525]

In Australia, retailers are trying to sell this for $500 dollars. They said “import tax” is why the price is about 1.5x the conversion rate, I wanted it, but for that price I’m going to have to pass

[@notarxw]

Did you try us retailers like gp or USA Gundam store?

[@nippyhobbies4525]

Fao lan yeah but they get me on the shipping (if I remember correctly)

[@notarxw]

Nippy Hobbies I think it’s a ten filler flat rate?

[@ButtersGettingHard]

Thats a ripoff and ill tell you why. Its because until the new year there is going to be a shortage of production. I know in north america at least, or specifically Canada and I assume Australia and maybe the US too, Bandai asked retailers to stop taking preorders. But many kept doing it with no guarantee of product being available, and the MGEX was one of the big ones. So now retailers will get 20% of what they usually get while product is diverted to these dickhead dealers so they can fulfill promises they made basically on behalf of bandai even though they were told not to. So now, since covid, bandai moving into a second factory, and the MGEX needing the LED sets from a third party which I think is in China which is having trouble producing the amount needed , the very few free MGEX sets (the kit and the LED) that are being produced and put on shelves, are going to be either overpriced or bought by scalpers

[@xxEmmankunnArt]

I'll admit, Mecha got the best intro in this review

[@TheDarkestPhoenix]

The kit is good, that V-Fin is really bad though... I'd guess they're expecting people buying this kit to spend the time on painting it, but.. I have a feeling people spending this much on a kit want a done kit rather than something like that. Overall good looking kit, but not something I'd spend that much for. Much rather just get the PG Unicorn and a knock-off LED kit (those are way cheaper).

[@midshipman8654]

have to agree. they could have made the solid v fin 2 parts one matte gold for the fromt, one white for the back. its not like they havent done similar things on rg with small 1 color pieces.

[@sidneyhuckabee3598]

Was starting to worry when the next video was coming out but this is surely well worth the wait what a lovely review

[@fufu5068]

Me: Too expensive. V fin looks cheap. I'll pass. Mecha: You have to build this kit! Me: *add to cart, pulls out my credit card

[@dillenhobbs9778]

Awesome video and love all your other videos I've watched. I love building Gundams. It's so cool watching your videos and knowing you love Gundam.

[@Azur214]

We should have an “absolute” counter on his every videos...

[@colinkwasnik]

I preordered this kit from hlj but not early enough for the first wave so now I need to wait until November and I CANT, THESE REVIEWS ARE KILLING ME I WAAAANT ITTTTTTTT 😭😭

[@josephk518]

I feel like the master grade unicorn gets too much hate. The one I built feels pretty solid and looks pretty good. The transformation is a bit eh but still kinda underrated.

[@nerobiblios4086]

I have the Full Armor version myself, and it's not that bad. My build is just poor since I was new when I built it, so most of the mistakes were my fault. Though, I do agree that it is very weak in terms of joints and poseability.

[@Sth809]

Same i had the original ova (wich is now kinda broken i used the shield for a sort of astray custom and weapons for my upcoming banshee) Can't wait for my banshee man

[@henriquenunes4072]

Man, i need a regular version of this masterpiece

[@jonathanabood7348]

Hey I need you to answer a question is this better than a perfect grade or like should I buy a perfect grader I really don’t know

[@Bobert2020]

If you have a large shelf, get the pg along with the LEDs. If not, get this boi. Or if you want the green psycoframe, then this boi is the one for you

[@egi8342]

better this one pg is too big for me

[@neonxraven99]

@@egi8342 thats wat she say lol sorry

[@joshuahensley9395]

It really depends on what you want, any pg is going to stand out in a collection and if you go for the led option it's really going to pop. But if you want the 3 shields, the green psycho frame, and the freedom to pose them, I can't really see getting the pg.

[@Bobert2020]

@@neonxraven99 that's accurate though...

“Unused V fin and unused waifus.” Wait a minute.

[@thetheropodguy]

Thanks for the review, brother. The RX-0 is my favorite Gundam and I have been trying to figure out which kit to get.

[@moperzzz]

Its a EXTREME pain in the ass to your wallet, but looks like one hell of a build

[@laupepajr4513]

Just a side note for anyone, but the kit also gives you two options for the cockpit in either destroy mode or unicorn which I thought was pretty neat. Also Mecha I gotta say this kit is pretty lit. Literally especially

[@Bobert2020]

The video length of this video is second only to the FAZZ. Also, can't you remove the excess paint on your new mascot to make him look less like a zombie? And best girl Marida is more like banaghers sister.

[@Lemuzaurio_streams]

So yeah, I build this one, it was a joy to build, the LCD strip was kinda hard to keep in place in some instances but overall everything was smooth and I completely build it! All leds worked and everything was fine!...until the transformation came, just at the start when I pulled the torso up...it broke, yes, I didn't even pulled it hard, it was solid in place, but it came off and the LCD stopped working, nothing lights up except for the head which is weird since it was the very last thing I build. I'm trying to figure how to fix it now...
