Get yourself an amazing shave and help support the channel: www.patronblades.com/k197 Get some sweet Gunpla deals in Europe!: facebook.com/gunplalabbenelux/ If I get enough suggestions for other MP units that became Ace units, I'll make a 4th "Commenter's Pick" video about those.

The Jesta was never intended to be a mass production unit ever and was designed for Aces. For those who think it should be mentioned.

"Let's make the Zeta more cost effective by giving it a dispensable armed pack each time it needs to transform!" "Wait -"

"However, despite being a more than capable machine, its pilots always had the bad luck of running into, simply put, more capable machines." Poor, poor Re-GZ. The GM Sniper II always seems to run into the same problem.

I think I’m seeing a pattern in mobile suit development. Feds: Hey, let’s make a gm/gundam type thing and hope it’s ok and cheap to make Result: Way too many things that may or may not be gundams that end up having only so few units made due to high costs. Zeon: Hey, let’s make a mean looking zaku. Result: NO ZAKU BOY, NO ZAKU Zeon amphibious ms development team:WE NEED WOBLY ARMS GOD DAMMIT! Result:WOBLY ARMS GOD DAMMIT!

As always, the inevitable question is: do you want to mass produce it?

Zaku III is a beast because not only was easy to pilot like the Zaku II it was very high performance for it's time.

Is it me or the gm custom looks like it will later inspired the jegan.

the mass-production Hyaku Shiki's head unit looks like the Xenomorph's of the Alien franchise.

So Alex = GM Custom = GM Quel = MK2 & Hazel? Interesting. It's funny how an MS lineage can turn out.

Am I the only one who likes the Re-GZ because of how the beam saber looks like a broadsword?

It really is a shame that the Zaku III isn't getting a Revive from what we know. I'd love to see it with modern engineering and maybe even some of those optional equipment loadouts we saw in the video.

of all of them the ZAKU III seems the best design. Modularity means ease of production, interchangeability of parts, ease of maintenance etc...

The most effective mass production unit was..... Ple. When you mass product new types, any machine can become an Ace machine.

R.I.Particles South Burning... all he wanted to do was to teach Kou that carrots taste good and are good for you. 😢

My hype is all for the Zaku III Mashymre's custom unit is seriously just one of my favorite designs from ZZ, if not in general Gundam, and the massive compatibility of the Zaku III for different equipment really makes it stand out.

The always bulky zaku III. A great upgrade for the zaku II that prompted customization. A beauty in my eyes

Definitely the Zaku III. I think what made the Zaku II and its Ace Pilots so dangerous was that each one was different and you never really knew what you were up against, as the MS' could be modified to be drastically different from one another. You might be fighting a Zaku with enhanced thrusters that can zip around you one second then get ambushed by one with two bazooka's and thicker armor.

I finally realized why you use the GM custom and the Zaku 3 in your intro. You used them all the time to compare the sizes of a kit you are reviewing

GM custom: remarkable for being totally unremarkable Awesome~

Another one to mention might be the RX-160 Byarlant, which was an attempt by Titans engineers to produce a Mobile Suit capable of atmospheric flight which did not rely on external booster systems or transformation gimmicks. One of the trial production Byarlants was piloted by Jerid Messa during the Gryps War, and it was intended to be mass-produced, but was passed over after it became clear that its armaments - a pair of integrated beam guns in its hands, plus two beam sabers - were not versatile enough to be useful. At least one example of an enhanced variant, the RX-160S Byarlant Custom, was produced after the war by the EFF, and fought in defense of Torrington Base when Zeon remnants attacked it in UC 0096. Another good candidate for this sort of list would be the RMS-154 Barzam. Although not strictly an ace machine, the Barzam was an intended replacement for the aging RGM-79R GM II in Federation and Titans service. Based loosely on the design of the RX-178 Gundam Mk-II, the Barzam had some characteristic Titans embellishments, including a mono-eye and a custom beam rifle, though it could also use weapons intended for the Gundam Mk-II, RMS-106 Hi-Zack, RMS-108 Marasai and GM II. Though it was a reasonably high performance machine, it was considered "too ordinary" in its capabilities by Federation and Titans leadership, and never replaced the GM II as intended. Those few that were produced during its limited production run were relegated primarily to second-line duties and training.

The thought of a mass-produced ZZ Gundam is overwhelming... It shouldda happened

oh and lest we forget that, as of Zeta Gundam: A New Translation, the GM Custom (and GM Cannon II) would also find its way into the hands of the AEUG

I love the gm custom, it's got such a simple yet cool looking design, has some great capabilities as of its time, and it's a good mobile suit to use in mobile suit Gundam: encounters in space for the ps2. I wish that it did get a little more love in the series, but with it being inspiration for the gm quel that's pretty cool too.

Speaking of Doven Wolf, isn't it in a technical sense a Mass Production version of Gundam Mk V, while Bawoo is a mass produced version of Project Zeta (possibly S Gundam)? If so, this really makes one wonder why Feds/Anaheim failed at mass producing some good machine, while First Neo Zeon is able to do so.

I was so hoping the Zaku III would make the list. Thanks for the content.

Thats a lot of saying Hyaku Shiki Kai now say Hyaku Shiki Kai 5 times like Hyaku Shiki Kai, Hyaku Shiki Kai, Hyaku Shiki Kai, Hyaku Shiki Kai, Hyaku Shiki Kai

Hey man just dropping in to say you have some excellent and informative videos. I am currently writing a (rather lengthy) fanfiction about an attempt in U.C. 0111 to restore the Republic of Zeon and find myself frequently dropping in to gain ideas and information about various suits and whatnot. Keep up 'em coming!

Although not really an ace unit, I really like the FAZZ from Sentinel. That's my kind of paper tiger!

i don't usually leave likes on videos, but this one had so much good information i had to pause halfway and say how much i love it. Keep it up man! do more of these on lesser known MS from AoZ and Sentinel!!

The GM quell would suit me....but I'd need to change the colors....But I am a Doga pilot at heart.

For my money, the Re-GZ had more potential by alternating different backpacks. An idea I am shaping Into some fanfiction. 😉

Great video these MS are awesome and the gm custom is my favorite love your videos.

Beautiful work. Bravo.

You got me started on Gundam thanks now I’m a super fan

I did not know about the mass production zz and now I want a kit of it

Can't wait for the next one, hope to see a mention of the Taurus or Leo Type N/R/S!

Very good video, I enjoyed it!

Zz gundam had 3 core fighters with probably 3 different reactors might be why it had 7k KW. Mass production version had forgone the docking of the fighters so had 1/3 the output

Nice video, thanks man & keep it up!👍

I'm glad to see someone else show the Zaku 3 some love, its possibly my favorite Zaku/Zeon grunt variant.

Glad to see the Zaku III getting some love, always thought it was an awesome, underappreciated MS.

3:47 i like how he kept repeating hyaku shiki kai to the point where it just sounded silly

No one talks about the F97.

0:42 is pretty much what i always say. you can upgrade and rename it all you want but a GM will always be a GM.

Zaku II is really maintaining their pedecessor's spirit.

Great video! Big fan of the Hyakushiki Kai Land Battle Type. Disappointed it wasn't in G Generation Genesis.

I love the GM Custom. I wish it would get a new MG. The old MG is so bad now. The Doven Wolf sits at the #2 slot for models I want to see get a RE/100 (behind only the Kshatriya). It is such a cool looking suit. One unit I feel is missing from this list is the Stark Jegan.

6:15 he said the line. the real mascot of this channel

ZAKUIII~!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! that modular design was beautiful

Char :what should I used as my mass-production mobile suits One guy: maybe we can use the zaku 3? Char: nah we'll just make a new standard mobile suit The zaku 3 is better than geara doga Thank God the sleeves had the right idea of putting a zaku 3 in there ranks

I like both the GM Custom Mass Production Type & the Zaku lll.

GM Custom and the Re-GZ are two of my favorite UC suit designs.

I'd say the Doven Wolf would make the most sense to mass-produce. You essentially have one platform, the Doven Wolf, and just have to design various attachments, weapons and upgrade kits for it, in order to tackle various objectives and enemies. Going on a scouting mission? Slap some sensor modules and long-range weapons on the damn thing! You need indirect artillery support? Put so many missles and targeting systems on it that it becomes impolite! Frontline Combat? Beam Sabers and rapid-fire, medium range weaponry! Attacking a Space Station? Bolt some grabbing claws on it, some missile racks, and maybe a beam rifle if you're feeling generous, then use the claws to get a large enough asteroid and... *ACHEM* I think you get the idea...

Love the Hazel. Wish that unit was mass produced. Good list. When are you making that video about the 4 reasons the Titan's fell?

Can't wait for you to get to Thunderbolt related issues.

I love how the autosubs turn Hyaku Shiki Kai into Shocker Xi Chi Chi/Shell Kuchiki Cash/Yakushiji Time/Chakra Shiki Chi.

Gundam Destroy, intended for Mass production and did almost reach that with at least 9 built. The only mass production gundam type of the Cosmic Era.

Geeze that much power and the ZZ Gundam still suffered from massive power failures. lol

well with the re gz, in it's defense, performance is a mix of pilot and machine and with amuro it was able to handle the jadg goda easily, sazabi might have been too much but that had char in it, with caira well its another story

Ahhh. Once again the zaku shows off its (at least in my opinion) greatest strength, it being a hilariously modular system.

The always bulky good boy Zaku III. Finally built the HG kit it’s great. It’s so weird to think the next in the Zaku main line didn’t end up being mass produced.

Zaku III is the best!

Game: take a shot of your favorite drink everytime Kakarot197 says "Hyaku Shiki Kai".

Zaku 3 all the way

I'd have loved driving a Zaku 3. The modularity's amazing, I'm a fan of Zakus, and also a fan of bulky MS. What's not to love?

I think the hyaku shiki kai would’ve been a great mass production mobile suit it could be used by veteran pilots

I'd like to see a video explaining why the Doben Wolf had such a huge reactor. I didnt think it was a mass production unit either, it's been a while since I have seen ZZ but I thought it was just for aces.

About time that you did some federation MS units, However why didn't the GM Sniper 2, Sniper Custom, The Jasta, or the GM-3 Novel make the list?

Doven Wolf is definitely Neo Zeon’s best Mass Produced Suit.

I like the Zaku 3. Adaptable, upgradeable and the temptation to paint it red and call myself a baron would be strong.

Gm custom!!! But the powered gm is my fav from 0083

The Double Zeta Gundam is impressive

Re-GZ custom but with quasi-psycommu and wired fin funnels would make for a great assault use mobile suit.

Lt. South burning was awesome

I love how the Doven Wolf vs Zaku III is basically Nu Gundam vs Sazabi a full war earlier.

Funny how the Zaku III development line leads to the Sazabi, and the Doven Wolf development line leads to the Nu Gundam.

A mobile suit is a tool it may have great specs but it has always come to the pilot to bring out its full potential.

one solution for the ZZ Mass Production type is to make an external power-pack for the mega cannons. even if its good for 1 or 2 shots, those free shots could make all the difference.

I would love to see the zaku 3 be use mor often

Kakarot197 is the Nicholas "The Chieftain" Moran of mobile suits... Change my mind.

Zeta music playing when talking about the Mass-Produced ZZ

A mass production Jesta.

My favourite the GM Custom a beast of a GM

i think you missed the Galbady β, the feds sort of mass produced them but it was such a small number that its only used at Luna II. in animation, only Lila and jerid piloted these is UC0087. i would say the marasai, but it probably got mass-produced in large numbers that some got into the hands of zeon remnants in Unicorn

Everybody knows that the real reason is so they can make more gunplas The one I want to see mass produced in gunpla form is Psycommu Zaku in the HGUC Gundam the Origin MSD line.

Man... We really need that HGUC ZZ Mass-Production Type now.

Alex > GM Custom > GM Quel > Hazel > The Bullshit the TR series is known for. That certainly _IS_ quite the lineage if you think about it. It's a gundam derived grunt suit that re-evolved back into a Gundam (and arguably my favorite line of suits as well)

It would definitely have to be the zaku III as you pointed out it was one of the most customizable mobile suit out there and the mobility wasn't bad either as I play a lot if different gundam games I have used and fought the zaku III I would dare to say it's on par with some of the older gundam types (zaku for ever)

Zaku III is a great mass production unit in concept. Mass production requires a certain ease of use, while still having solid performance, and the implimentation of INCOM weaponry and the quasi-psycommu system would greatly increase the Doven Wolf's performance, while putting a bit more strain on the pilot. Of course, when you have a more limited supply of pilots, the Doven Wolf looks much more appealing, but Zaku III still feels like a better production model overall.

The way Gundam tends to only focus on a few characters at any time makes it easy to forget the scale of the worlds the stories take place in. The bulk of these wars are decided by the thousands of battles we don’t see.

hands down the dolven wulf. that thing was almost equivalent to the gundam mk-V in therms of performance. the only reason the zaku III managed to up it, was due to plot contrievance. with that power, it might've been able to support an i-field.

Thankfully the the ReZEL from Unicorn Gundam fixed most of the original Re-GZ's problems as it just took the Methuss and ZII's transformation system and went with it

Nu gundam mass production type would be good for this list.

3:17 The Deep Striker has a reactor that dwarfs all UC mobile suits at 12500 kW.

in gundams series for some reason, i see a pattern that most of the time "earth side" always make ms that fit general purpose unit compare to "space side" that have more variation on their suit for each specified role. like comparing a swiss army knife with other specified tools

1.) Sadly, the GM Custom was also one of numerous mobile suits that was seen as "too plain". As Kou said, "Remarkable for being totally unremarkable". The same thing would be why the Barzam wouldn't be adopted by the Titans in Zeta Gundam despite being an otherwise good all around mobile suit; nothing about it really stood out. However, the GM Custom and GM Cannon II would ironically also be acquired and used by the AEUG near the end of the Gryps Conflict in Zeta Gundam (updated version). 2.) The ZZ's reactor was also increased even higher when it was upgraded to the Enhanced ZZ Gundam when preparing it for its Full Armor configuration - to a whopping 7860 kW. Only things that surpassed it was Neo Zeon's AMX-015 Geymalk (8320 kW) and, of course, the NZ-000 Quin Mantha / Queen Mansa at 21,370 kW. 3.) I also wish we got an explanation for why the Hyaku Shiki Kai mass production type ended up not making it. Same with the Nemo III, Rick Dias II, and others. 4.) Kind of weird how the Zeta Gundam never reaches any sort of full mass production, yet the Delta Gundam, which was essentially the first attempt at the Zeta Gundam and would go on to become the Hyaku Shiki, would eventually see such mass production with the ReZel in Unicorn Gundam (and even seeing its initial shelved design, complete with transformation, brought back to life with the Delta Plus) and such. 5.) Most likely was due to Mashymere and his Newtype power that made his customized Zaku III look way stronger than normal. Still a great mobile suit all around, but sadly, the Doven Wolf is the one that would continue to have a legacy in the form of the Federation's Silver Bullet (basically a captured Doven Wolf with a Gundam head).

gm custom, my beloved

Honorable mention to the RGM-96X Jesta!

They should mass produced the Zaku 3 because it's a heavy type Zaku can out stands any situation like missile barrage
