Re-uploaded to fix an editing mistake!

In case anyone is still curious, pulling the front of the skirt (as shown on 9:09) allows you to rotate the torso.

They nailed the armor separation. I love this because you could do a straight build and it looks great. The funnels blew my mind!

Thank you for pointing out the shoulder joint problem. Just got mine few hours ago. And I really need to see through that before building. You are great.

please give us a rg kshatriya this proves that Bandai can do it !!

Beautiful kit. Just purchased it, didn't regret it. Looks great out of the box if detailing and/or painting isn't your thing. Can't go wrong with this one.

This kit has really caught my eye. Your video has made me want one. Thank you, great video

Next RG is gonna be the nu gundam, I'm sure of it.

Awesome review and awesome channel! Love the in depth reviews! Can't wait to pick up my own Sazabi!

I've finished this kit a long time ago, but I didn't know that the chest can move until I watched this. Thank you!

Every time an RG comes out it's the best RG ever made... This line does not disappoint at all :P

He is still replying too comments after a year

Building the kit myself,i first build the entire frame and now armoring it, building this way is an amazing experience

Hello Everyone who has bought or is planning to get the sazabi You do not need to worry about the shoulder joints, it’s is very stable

This is my first RG kit that I’ve built and I have to say it is worth every cent. It’s now my favorite kit of all time and it took a lot of patience (3 days), but it was rewarding seeing it complete.

Wow this kit looks dope. I was super skeptical with how stiff the Sinanju was and with this being the bulkier MS, but I can say that I'm very impressed! I don't usually get RGs but I think I'll have to get this one for kicks (literally)!

Never been a fan of red mobile suits but this looks perfect. I need this for my RG collection. I wish the sinanju had this type of construction of the inner frame....it would've been perfect.

Picked up one myself, it was a pretty fun build. Built it after the RG Nu Gundam. Both are good kits

Love the soft background music

Woah! Totally missed the wrist pop out gimmick when I built this thing. Can’t believe that was there the whole time!

Awesome! Waiting on my preorder.

I finally picked up this beast. Looking forward to building it.

Wow, I finally built this thing. I feel absolute catharsis. It is so rad.

Finally got mine as an auto gift for my birthday this month, and i'm so excited. It looks beautiful.

Best review. Thanks for NZ.

Giod review. I bought the DL water slides from ebay. I'm only using the foils and Neo Zeon emblem from the sticker sheet. This is a great build so far and I've only just started the right leg. The detail is mind blowing.

Gonna buy this very soon. Can't wait.

Finally got mine and good God this thing is epic it like a scaled down. MG and the same size as a smaller mg

This is perfection

Deff gonna be getting this one

when the RG unicorn came out it was dubbed the best RG, this now took that throne, I hope this pattern continues

I just ordered the rg nu along the sazabi, super excited for it 😊

A good topic is everything

Kinda tempted to get this thing to replace my HGUC on the shelf... normally wouldn't do that but my HGUC has really wonky ball jointed hips that barely hold on, and I can't find a substitute Polycap to use in there instead. A shame about the shoulder issue. I had my RG Unicorn "butterfly joint" shoulder part break. Superglue fixed it for now, but still a shame. Great review man!

15:20 You can actually push the tomhawk handle in the connector and it will sit plush

That background music is so haunting somehow..

Picked this kit up yesterday at a local anime store as B-Day gift for my self only got the feet done so far.

I found pushing the shoulders on from the peg rather than clip it down saves the piece from stress as i tried and it felty like it was gonna stretch too much.. but wow this kit is amazing

The aides of the back pack open up as well, like the back skirt. The crotch tilts forward to allow better waist rotation, also the waist itself can rock left to right.

I can't wait for this kit. Sazabi is my all time favorite mobile suit and the MG ver ka always seemed intimidating.

This built felt more like i was building a MG than a RG. My only complaint is the pink color they used. I think they couldve used a darker red rather than pink. Im thinking of painting this one shade of red.

YO, RG Full Armor Gundam Unicorn (Green Frame) is coming!!

Think my only complaint about the kit is it doesn't have the long rifle. I'm a sucker for long rifles on Gunpla so that would have sold me on getting it. Maybe later down the line when there's waterslides available. Thanks for the reviews you do dude!

I will most likely get this soon

I KNEW IT! I totally called that this is one of the best gunpla kits ever made in ANY scale. Its freaking fantastic! maybe I should start a gunpla channel. edit: yeah I'm totally waiting for a waterslide set. I can't believe real grades still come with stickers yuk! I used the stickers on my RG Unicorn, and then removed them 3 months later.

An rg The-O would be cool. I would cop it fast, together with Qubeley

Pretty sure there'll be a p-bandai funnel effect parts coming eventually!

Just bought one now to add to the backlog with RG Nu :)

Thanks for bringing up the shoulder joint ordeal.💯

Perfection!

Are you thinkin about it? Debating buying it? JUST GET IT! A JOY TO BUILD, and GLORIOUS OOB!

excellent show piece right here. as like the ver KA of this kit don't be surprise all he many custom paint jobs your going to see in the next 6 months!

Now we just need the jegan, regz, geara and jagd doga and that zeong looking thing, and then we'll have all the cca ms in rg form Then bandai needs to make them in mg form.

Fantastic music here dude! I hadn't noticed it before (as we're not supposed to) but this was awesome!

RG Sazabi, now with movable gooch!

nu is definitely incoming!

I know this review is 5 years old but I wanna touch on the shoulder joint for anyone watching this now. The issue is less of it being tight and more of HOW the shoulder joint functions. It's a Keyhole mechanism. Which means the peg has a little indent jutting out and the hole factors that in. Which means when you push the key joint through the keyhole peghole, you need the Key lip of that joint to fully poke through before moving the joint in ANY fashion. Failing to do this will not have the joint move and you're just twisting the peg, which'll sheer the peg off. So you need to push it through all the way and ensure it's got enough clearance on the lip to not snag. I would know about sheering this. Not on the RG Sazabi though, but the Full Armor Gundam (Thunderbolt) Ver.Ka. Has this SAME mechanism in the shoulder...I had to buy another one to replace cause living in the UK replacement part services are non-existent basically.

Best gunpla of 2018

Only thing this kit is missing, is a left trigger finger hand. Its the biggest (possibly only advantage of articulated hands), no need to worry that a kit won't include hand options for your desired posing.

Going for this kit someday... Someday😂

I want one now

All this perfection and I bet one person won't be able to like this just because....

RG Nu When? I’d prolly add a rack of fake funnels for stability purposes though.

Preordered mine a while back idk when they will be in stock

This RG has step up to a new level. I still would prefer to have a RG Barbatos and Nu

wow i didn't realize sazabi was so big xD guess its been a long time since i saw it in the anime

I mentioned this in someone else's video: the lack of clear effect parts that showcases funnel launch is a HUGE pet peeve of mine. Because MS like Qubeley, Sazabi, Nightingale and such, cannot be posed well due to their bulk. Without effect parts to showcase funnels, there's just no way to demonstrate their strength and magnificence. The HG 1/44 Destiny Gundam is a perfect example of this: it's got so many effect parts there's virtually nothing you cannot do with the kit.

Thank god the shoulder issue people have been talking about is just a matter of building it correctly and taking your time and not due to the part just breaking cause its just plain fragile

Ok I must have gone Boomstick mode again because you lost me at BEAM SHOT GUN......and now I want two.

Never forget the Talgeeses

I wish Bandai would make an RG grade for EX-S Gundam

The background music is the main menu theme from pummel party

First rg ever built!

You know what, I never was a big fan of sazabi at all until Katoki Hajime came out with his gorgeous redesign of the MG Ver.ka and it blew my mind when I saw the prototype images. Then I look back the HGUC ver I realized that the HGUC ver was also designed by him....I got the MG Ver.ka and I did appreciate the design a lot more. This RG is fantastic in any way and one thing that I like is bandai didn't scale down the Ver.Ka design into 1/144, instead they completely redesign the whole kit which is great. I don't want my RG sazabi looks like a scale down MG Ver.Ka~ Definitely a must buy kit!

Awesome

Such good articulation for a B E E F gunpla

Dam that is an amazing real gade, glad I bought it.

What stand do you recommend? I tried using the action base 1 and none of the adapters fit.

Does it come with posable tubes to hold the funnels or is that a separate purchase?

that crotch part that hinges forward is for increased ab-crunch but to utilize it you have to modify a piece on the back of the inner frame crotch area in Mecha Gaikotsu review he modifies the part

I'm gonna wait for the RG Nu Gundam to come out and get both kits together. Epic build!

Is 12 dollars a reasonable price for a zaku i origin kit?

Did you apply any paint to the model as shown at the beginning of the video, or is that the look of the kit as it comes in the box?

Anyone else’s beam saber effect parts also loosened up to the point where they just fall out of the sabers? Or was that just because I kept switching them out? Either way I tightened them up :))

You sounded odd. Do you have a flu? Thank you for a nice review even you're sick. Awesome!

Will the left shoulder joint still be fragile even after finished building?

I think i'm going to get the mg because i like 1/100 scale. Just think it looks better.

Hopefully this new change-up of the standards of RealGrades will continue for Bandai. This like RG ver Ka lol...

The clear parts on the sticker look bad, because of the air that remains stuck under the sticky tape. It turns it kinda milky white. (light difusion I guess). They become much more transparent once you've given them a good rub to push that air out. You can use your fingernail (not the sharp edge, but the flat end) for instance.

The sides of the backpack move out too.

180 degree E L B O W B E N D

2 years after, the only joints that are having some issues are those leg joints and the fin at the helmet.

Awsome

Got hguc sinanju and the sinanju stein (Narrative version), and hoping for an rg sinanju stein (NT and Unicorn versions included like the MG would be nice)... if this and the rg Tallgeese, and rg Nu Gundam are how Bandai approach the RG line, I am hopeful!

I’m only into MG but I’ve been looking at RG. My whole collection is mg or bigger so it’s hard to want to display these little guys

Can the shield be attached to the other arm? Also, how are nub marks? Are the pieces under-gated?

based on this review, i feel like the shoulder joint is a bit hard to move. any suggestions to make it a lot smoother? will sanding the peg be an option?

Let say price and space is not an issue. Should I go with the MG ver.ka?

Having built the rg Hi Nu gundam now, would you say that this is still better than that one?

Which action base is compatible with this?
