12:48 ironically in the promo video, you can hear the G40 designer say how he felt the Gundam looked toyish ("No offense"), so he tried to make it more "realistic".

[@azuzu9813]

And yet the final product looked toyish than any other variants... I don't get how his design is anymore realistic than the default one.

[@chuckymaynard96]

@@azuzu9813 in hg, the g40 could never look like more than a toy. I feel like if they gave it the master grade treatment, what ken Okuyama was going for would be more visible. The hg was designed specifically for articulation, but the making of book it comes with shows just how unique and realistic it could be if they sacrificed some of that articulation in a real or master grade

[@azuzu9813]

I don't know about that, I can imagine what it would look like if it were made as MG, but the overall design still looks toyish to me. Compared to the more recent attempt of grand dad in the same grade, the beyond global version looks better and realistic while keeping the same awesome articulations found in g40, at least from what I can see. To each their own I guess.

[@GotNextVideo]

A lot of that is the color choice. The lack of a dark colored inner frame and color separation make it feel like an action figure, And the bright candy red and aqua don't help. I have seen repaints of the G40 that really sell the design better. I don't think it's so much that the G40 is realistic as much as grounded in modern design. Okuyama tried to de-retro the design, but the retro colors get in the way. I am working on a version of the G40 now with a lot of chrome trim accents and a sports car paint job, and it really brings out those vehicular design cues. Almost looks like a transformer.

[@HeadCannonPrime]

Well the designer of the G40 is a super car designer and super cars are designed to look like rediculous matchbox cars. They literally look like toys on purpose. I want to see an actual military designer take a crack at it.

[@LostInTheInternet93]

I'm glad the revive got as much respect that it did. That grandaddy was my first kit that I built ten years ago, and was gateway drug to Gundam as a whole. Got the kit at a comic convention, built it , thought it was great, and wondered what it the stats on the manual meant. Then watched my way through the series, and got a kit from each generation.

I think the early-type is the obscure one with the shoulder cannon and prototype rifle, the mid-type is the classic Gundam with 2 sabers and the classic beam rifle

[@Chovyy-f25]

I almost thought that the HG Gundam The Origin is a Real Grade XD

[@shockbladezed1871]

Well with only 200 yen more you basically have the real grade, so basically it's a real grade rx 78 but with no innet frame

[@BlueKira]

Well, its price is on par with a real grade so thats to be expected

[@GotNextVideo]

Yeah I painted mine up and put some waterslides on it and it looks right at home with my RGs.

[@GotNextVideo]

The conclusion is funny but true. The Origin kit feels more like a conventional HG, just with a higher part count and more surface detail, where the G40 and BG seem really fresh and modern, but the Origin is still the best kit. It looks the best and still poses like a champ. The G40 is the weirdest of them. I think the white joints/frame make it look more like an action figure than the sculpt itself.

[@HeadCannonPrime]

I have the RG and its a POS. As Mecha says, it suffers from "Early real grade syndrome". IE the second you touch it to pose, all the pieces start popping off and it gets all floppy. The RG is getting boxed when I get the Origin.

If you need a video idea for your backlog: Origin vs Real Grade. Since both kits go for the "same asthetic", it would make a good comparison between modern HG and early RG. Can the old RG still compete, or has it already been eclipsed by the High Grade in 2020?

If you asked me about the ratings, I would say it depends on what you're looking for. If you want something that looks cool and original go for Revive. If you want something futuristic and modern but follows originality, go for beyond global. If its mobility you're after, then pick up G40. If you want something that is original, cool, militaristic, and futuristic get the Origin. After all the ratings for the same kit doesn't matter if it doesn't have the trait you want in the kit.

@@vincenzo1791 yeah but I'm not really sure if that Gundam Hammer attachment included in that magazine would also fit the Origins ver., Beyond Global, and the G40. AFAIK, it's for the Revive ver.

[@harvalite5737]

Honestly, I have to say that for me, the GBN-Base Gundam is the best looking out of the lot, but not as a traditional RX-78-2. I just love it's modernized design, with the super sharp angles on the head, it's small feet, and the more angular chest piece. But for a tradional RX-78, it has to be the Beyond Global. Ordinarily, it isn't super screen accurate, but when put into a classic pose, it has the proportions and articulation to capture it to perfection.

Hmm, the rankings are a bit intriguing. I personally (and honestly) like the origin. Great details, and it's really a poser to me compared to the beyond global. Although the tech of BG is better compared to the origin, i felt that it was a bit deservice not giving origin a gundarium tier. I really want to have the best technology added to a gunpla, but it should be balanced out by aestethics, details, and design which I felt origin has nailed it. I hope I can get that origin daddy soon.

[@Brawler_1337]

Platinum vs Gundarium doesn’t necessarily have anything to do with quality. Platinum is something that is really really good, but still feels like the grade it’s a part of. Gundarium kits do not feel like the grade they are. The latter can be said of the G40 and Revive Global, since they are using the latest technology to push something new. The Origin has polycaps and other standard tech you’d expect in a High Grade, but it just uses that tech to make a really good model.

[@BLITZKRIEG209]

@@Brawler_1337 I think that was the apt distinction mechagaikotsu gave when he did the rg force impulse review. And I will agree that gundarium tier is more on how the tech transcends a gunpla from its grade like the RG Nu and Sazabi. But in this review, I could see that even if the BG has some new tech compared to some ball joints the origin has, the origin did have some better articulation compared to the newer tech BG. For me, the origin. is the all-rounder compared to the rest. even if it has some traditional joints that can still classify it as a high grade, it is better in other aspects.

[@Brawler_1337]

Joseph James Bacayo And I get that. I’d much prefer the Origin over the BG, but Mecha’s grade scale is what it is.

@@HeadCannonPrime I highly agree, maybe there should be a specific criteria or I dont' know. But for me the G40 maybe a great poser with advancements in its joints, but ir failed in the design since it was a departure of real rx-78.

I prefer the bawksy Origin version. Classic Gundams need to look thick, impractical and heavily armored to make up for the early technology. The concept for most of them, especially on the wiki, all have sports car grills on the chest and for some reason that is rarely translated onto the Gunpla. The Nu Gundam has a bit of a modern BMW grill.

[@shezmu24]

I feel that while the revive does lack a lot of the features and detail its still a great contender based solely on value, the fact that its got double jointed arms and legs and a decent set of hands along with that really neat gimmick of putting the reflective stickers behind the eyes all packaged in something that can still be gotten for 12 bucks or so in the US is seriously impressive.

The Global's colors are definitely my favorite of em all. If Origin had Global's colors I'd be really happy.

Hey Mecha, since you mentioned Godzilla, how about reviewing a SH Monsterarts Godzilla figure Also, I've just noticed that the Grandaddy Beyond Global has thicc thighs

It's definitely the Origin for me. It looks awesome, has lots of added detail, poses great, and has a boatload of awesome extras.

How did you modify the front skirt piece on the RX-78 Revive to move separately? Did you just split the middle, or did you do something else to them? I'm looking at mine wondering whether or not they will hold in place if I just split them, so I figured I'd ask you first since you've found a way to make it work before I did anything to mine.

Bought the Beyond Global cuz I love the colors and engineering of the kit but I will definitely get the Origin as well someday for that chunky real robot look

My favorite grandaddy is the GBN-Base Gundam! But then again I paint my kits. :D

[@Julian-nu4bx]

how is it possible that five different people can all be first? what is this witchery?

[@alvinshaw33]

RX Gundam the origin with G40 feet, and global back pack and shield w/ arm. PERFECT! Now to get an origin before they sell out after this GREAT Video. You da best Mecha.

I love how the leg kick to the back is cut right as you can see the G40 is totally falling over lol
