Favorite release this year was hands down the Zeta ver ka. Absolutely beautiful kit, a marvel of mechanical engineering. Bandai really outdid themselves with this kit. It's got fantastic stability, articulation, and is fully transforming, so you'd think that one of those three points would have been compromised to some degree, but it scores 10's in all categories. Furthermore Bandai really must be doing something funky with that plastic because the molds were sharper than I think I've ever seen, and the plastic itself was far softer. I can't wait to see what they do next. Also, no Zeta ver ka in the video, riot!

It was nice built but building the kit was absolutely miserable. Then the limited accessories for the price i kinda agree with zaku on not putting it here. It was definitely not my favorite verka and i really like zeta gundam

@@JimC1984 What was miserable about it? It was a long build, but I didn't mind it because the parts layered together so nicely and with such a tight fit - particularly on the leg build. I will say that I made a newbie mistake and accidentally forgot to put a part in one of the legs right as I finished it, forcing me to pull apart the entire leg and have to rebuild it pretty much from scratch, so I had a pretty painful experience, and yet still enjoyed it. The only thing I don't like about the kit is that the chest is still so hollow inside and the swivel peg joint in the chest is so short that it easily works itself loose. The peg for the neck assembly is also a very weak contact point in what is otherwise a very solid construction.

100% Agree with the Michaelis being a kit to mention as a highlight in 2023. It was my least favorite design out of the 5 main suits in the Season 1 batc. After building and posing it around with photos my opinions shifted; I fell in love with it;. It is without a doubt my #1 HG pick out of the WFM line. It's a joy to fiddle and pose with it, and it doesn't feel fragile, whilst keeping it minimal with the C-clips (For comparison, the shoulder binders of the HG Pharact are incredible loose over time).

It's not exactly gunpla but one of my favorite kits from last year (and just in general) was the HG Guren Seiten. Great build process and the plastic quality out of the box is pretty exceptional with a great set of colors and mix of finishes that make it look fantastic even as a completely straight build. Would love to see a video of your favorite non-gunpla model kits of last year too. Also love the MGSD kits and hoping to see more. My most-wanted is probably the atlas gundam, but I'm expecting Nu to be next.

My surprise favorite that came out of nowhere was the HG Shin Burning Gundam. It has all the features you'd expect the Burning Gundam to have as well as the extra effect parts. It's one of the easier to pose and the effect parts gives you a lot of options, especially the cloak that can double as a set of wings. With the success of SEED Freedom, I'm expecting we'll see at least a new MG or two out of them, especially since they went out of the way to redesign the HGs as well. The Akatsuki is especially overdue for an overhaul. What I want is a proper MG Barbatos Lupus Rex and a redo of some of the other IBO frames with the upcoming interquel Urdr Hunt. As for an MGEX, God/Burning for sure. Bring the RG size one to an MG with an emphasis on its posing and flexibility by utilizing some of the PGU tech in it.

I just realized that RG Epyon''s spikey rod was actually released with PBandai RG Tallgeese 3 back in 2019, that means it's not a ''new'' MS joints part, but a mass production of an exclusive gimmick. Anyway, RG Epyon is still the best/second best gunpla kit ever made IMO.

I haven't built the Barbatos yet, but the MGSD Freedom was surprisingly good, I was blown away how detailed and sharp everything was. Zeta Ver Ka I thought was ok, didn't blow me away since I don't care for the Waverider transformation, but it's sharp and stable. I would love to see an MGSD Zaku, or just grunt suits. But most likely we'll be getting a Unicorn and maybe Aerial/Caliban while it's still popular.

Even though Epyon is an ms from Wing series which should be smaller than regular Gundam for example Rx-78-2, Bandai made the Rg taller exceeding even the regular Gundam. So i guess is not quite a small kit, but sure it has quite a lot of small parts.

The SD design isn't for everyone. In Japan cute things are embraced, but in the west cute things are hated. Japan hates egdy but the west loves edgy. As a Super Robot Taisen fan I'm very used to SD but others may find it weird. I like most SD designs but not SDEX (they look a bit off compared to usual SDs), not SD Sangoku Heroes (too busy, too much) and not the Gunpla-kun one (just ugly and creepy). For example I don't like half of Witch from Mercury designs, especially the Michaelis development line but others like it. The thin slim feminine mecha (aside from Jehuty of course) just weird me out for some reason. To each their own. And it's a good think there's so much out there that anyone can find something they like.

Sorry, I don't like any of the designs from Witch From Mercury, and I like the Lfrith Ur a lot less than most of the other designs. Calibarn and Aerial are probably the only "good" ones from the batch to me, as a UC absolutist, and the only kits from the series that I would consider buying. To be honest, I don't like a single design in this video either, lol. The MGSD Freedom is at least really neat with the eyes and head camera details, that's the thing that interests me about that line.
