What is the best HG zaku II?

[@lunanight4806]

I'm a little surprised that you didn't include the high mobility type zaku, I really like mine.

[@uvealhercules]

@lunanight4806 I have Johnny Ridden's high mobility zaku and the phsyco zaku, they are very cool! I really just wanted to compare the main 3 zaku High grades to the new solari zaku

[@xxraverxxonxtacy]

Awesome comparisons, my personal fav HG Zaku 2 is the Cucuruz Doan's Island version.

[@Grandamturbo]

@@xxraverxxonxtacy is it any good? All my origin zakus have gotten so loose and finicky over the past two years

[@uvealhercules]

@@xxraverxxonxtacy Those customized zaku 2's and doans zaku look super neat!

[@AzraelThanatos]

The Doan's Island one is, essentially, the GTO Zaku 2 with some modified parts for the visible damage to it

[@Grandamturbo]

@@AzraelThanatos then I'll probably have to pass on it. Maybe if I get some joint guard and super glue, but not on a one off kit

[@AzraelThanatos]

@ You ought to glance at ZakuAurelius' review of it that he did when it came out

[@Grandamturbo]

I'm really surprised the origin zaku got first. Honestly everyone I've ever built has been a finicky loose mess. Good detail, good amount of articulation (if you can get it to hold a pose) but my f2s have just held up so much better. The revive is a close second in my opinion, but the loose wrists are the only reason it gets second. The solari custom gets my fourth, and third has to go to origin just because the have a nice recolor amount and customization

[@uvealhercules]

@Grandamturbo My origins have held up pretty well and they are super fun to pose. The F2 is still probably my personal favorite design wise atleast, and the kit is very solid aswell

[@Grandamturbo]

@uvealhercules what did you do to them? The hips on all my origins seem to sag because of the pivot inside. The arms are good, but the bazooka makes them sag quite a bit

[@uvealhercules]

@Grandamturbo I don't display mine with the bazooka, so that might be why mine haven't been getting loose. I display mine with the machine gun or the anti ship rifle.

I had a feeling that the origin version of Shar's zaku was gonna win but that's definitely not to say the other zaku's are not that great they're all really good. And I definitely agree with you on the requiem for vengeance suits needing more recolors to be released to the public because I have no idea what possessed sunrise to lock up most of these color variants in PB exclusivity because it makes no sense especially if you want to army build these guys. But still it is great that the zaku is still getting a lot of love and any of these are great for anyone to wanna try out so much so that these things even got copied in one alternate universe another universe that is technically cannon to the 1 year war and finally we're probably gonna get another version of it when gundam quack comes out and yes I'm gonna be calling it gundam quack lol.

[@uvealhercules]

@MrDarksol I'm very excited for that spec ops zaku II in the new Gundam anime. Gundam quack is a lot easier to say than the actual title

[@mau7522]

Really wish the thunderbolt zaku would be more easily available, the design is great and I really want to see how it is compared to the others

[@uvealhercules]

@mau7522 Yeah me too, I think this year is the animes anniversary so hopefully they reprint those kits

[@mau7522]

@@uvealhercules the Zaku II+big gun is indeed getting reprinted this year, probably soon, I already pre-ordered one from a local store, I just wish they made a standard release without the big gun

[@jamavra]

Zaku F2 for me in the hguc, red comet in the origin line

[@TheHOZ95]

how do you feel about the RG zakus?

[@uvealhercules]

@TheHOZ95 they look pretty solid, I'm not the biggest RG collector so I dont have any of the RG zakus
