This will make a fine addition to my collection

Fwoosh: "General grievous, your harder to put together than I expected."

You can slowly see him losing his sanity the more he built it.

He is shorter than I expected

1:08 Don't you mean... "Another addition to my collection."

Now i really want a model kit Magnaguard!

That figure looks so fricken badass even without paint. Just looks so clean and crisp. Big thumbs up!

I love how good this looks might pick him up and repaint him to be white like his 2003 version

Damn, I was waiting for the "probably says something like" line. Damn translations!

His cape doesn't have the interior pockets for additional lightsabers. :(

THE MORE I WATCH YOU ROBO, THE MORE ITS LIKE IM TALKING TO YOU IN PERSON. GREAT REVIEW MAN! STAY HEALTHY!

Lightsaber blades can be adjusted by the user. His lightsabers are actually correct to him.

This will be a fine addition to my collection

Now all we need is a Black Series Grievous. But my favorite character in Star Wars is Cad Bane. I really want a Black Series or Model kit Cad Bane

Great review! Really loved the posing at the end, you've really outdone yourself there. People generally underestimate how much creativity,research and effort that goes into posing a figure just right.

I'm completely in love with this figure 😍

Soak the Cape in water for a few hours, let it dry it out and put it back on.

Finally a 1/12 Grievous and he looks amazing! I need one for my collection for sure. I love painting.

feels good living in Japan and getting this model for dirt cheap.had to do a lot of weathering and painting but I'm not complaining since it was all worth it.you don't have to go the extra and paint the lungs but people should try to paint the fleshy part of the throat and do a heavy glossy coat on the eyes and the painted throat part.

Definitely great if they start making model kit magnaguard

Me: (sees figure) Hello There. Grievous: General Collector!!

I wish it wasn't so expensive! IM DESPERATE FOR THIS! Grievous is my #1 favorite star wars character!

Finally I found a General Grevious figure that's worth the price on Amazon that's worth it in It's size and details to it especially his arms that split in half... Thank you for making this video...

Again you are the best in the business. So excellent. I never thought I'd be interested in watching someone make a model.

You should see some of the engineering that goes into their Master and Perfect Grade Gundam kits, of course they also cost more than this.

i have some modelkits i havent started but i remembered i wasnt able to get grievous yet but hearing you talking about building yours it made me want to get to build those that i havent

Dude I watched this video when I was trying to decide whether or not to buy this kit. After I bought it, I got stuck and could not figure out how to get a certain part to work. I remembered from your video that you got frustrated with a certain part so I came to rematch in case it happened to be the same step we got stumped on. It was! I'm so glad you made this video so I didn't have to torture myself trying to figure it out for too long.

It always broke my heart that we never got a truly great toy of Grievous, but with this model kit (especially the fact that it can stand upright) I think we've finally gotten there.

A fine addition to Robo's collection.

Spectacular. Can't wait to get mine!

Wow he looks fantastic. Great review man. Glad to see he turned out so great

I went ahead and ordered this after watching this review about ten times over. Such a great in depth review and glorious looking model kit/ figure. Thank you Robo.

Im so glad i satched this video, i hadn’t figure out how to work the joints in the arms and thought they couldn’t bend at the elbows

All so very happy at how the model ending up, Great review

I tried getting the cape wet and molded it to his body and it looked great

I built him yesterday and he's amazing. Even if guts are inside, behind green plastic, I painted them like on the box, because somehow it made me happy. Today I bought paint wash just for him and never did this before. I have 8 star wars bandai model kits, but this is definitely my favorite one.

Wow. Fwoosh tells you everything about the figure and how to fix a problem if there is a problem.. I mean for people who are obsessed with figures... how can you not subscribe to this guy?

wow, another great review of an awesome bandai kit, I just have to get my hands on this kit.

Thanks for the review, Robo! Thanks for the hard work & sleepless night. I was surprised to see the review so soon after the last weekly. Awesome poses at the end!

Looks awesome! I ordered mine today and I can't wait. I'll definitely paint it, but it's going to be great!

I was all for this kit until I saw the price on Amazon. $60? That's more than a Gundam Master Grade, models with full inner frames, bigger, and with way more intricate parts than this. That's an insane price Bandai. But I would be lying if I said I didn't want it still.

I finally received it from Japan and assembled it! Thanks for the tips and review was spot on, it’s a beautiful figure!

Great build. I was debating whether or not I should buy this one. After seeing your build, I'm definitely in!

so cool, was choosing either black series or model kit grievous, this video makes me choose the model kit

Boy, am I glad that I purchased mine last week! Just waiting for him to come in! Great video Robo, as always, and congrats on the engineering degree xD this is going to be such a great piece... he just looks pretty much perfect. Just needs a slight bit of weathering, like you said, but I have no problem doing that. Super excited!

Yes, Yes, YESSSSS!!!' Thanks for reviewing this. Loaded up and I'm watching it!

Yes yes yes, this is everything I could ever hope for (in terms of model kits). At first I thought there might've been loose joints, like with the battle droid, but that doesn't seem to be the case.Great review Robo!, mine should arrive in the coming week, can't wait to finally add him to my collection

Awesome kit brother!!! Thanks for the review

Way better than whatever Hasbro can come up with.

"Don't Quote me on that" - The Fwoosh, 2017

As always .. great review! Thank you!

Just ordered mine for $45! I’m hyped to get it!

Love the way it looks

thank you for all those poses!! now i know i'll be getting a Bandai for my General Grievous!! my down side i guess is that his hands doesn't close & open. but i guess i can live with it! thank you for sharing this vid!! more power!!

Thx for the video. Now I will hopefully not run in any trouble when I built mine. I cannot wait for it to arrive! Looks great

Robo, you are the king! Just because of this you'll be one of my next drawings. Thanks for this review!

Great job on the review, you captured all the stuff that blew me away that I've been trying to explain! First model kit with an action feature, that feature, standing!! I have that Disney elite figure too, took a bandai action stand to get him to stand in just a basic static stance, and the bastard still fell over! This thing stands almost like a Weeble! Its hard to find a pose you can't make work. I painted up his organs, few different base colors, some blood wash and gloss, came out nice! I almost cried when I got the torso together and couldn't see the slightest bit of them. I took a picture at least to prove I wasted my time. A little weathering and the saber hilts painted, it looks like a shrunk down Hot Toys figure, I can't stop staring/posing/playing. Now we gotta convince Rickhor 409 to tackle that cloak lol

I hope the model kit will be available in Austria soon

This review was such a nice surprise. Didn't think it'd be out so soon. I am happy it seems that the hype was real! I can't wait to get mine. lol now I should actually order it 🤔😅Awesome as always, Robo!

Pretty awesome model-kit. I think it scales better with the SHF SW figures than initially expected because I don't see Bandai releasing this as an SHF for a decent price. Grievous was one of my favorite characters in the prequels...which may be faint praise but like Darth Maul, I think everytime he was on screen the movies were better for it. I think the cape is actually quite good, but it's in serious need of some weathering. To anyone that has ever built a MG Gundam model kit, it's no surprise this turned out this cool.

Cape aside, it's completely worth the buy. I'm not the collecting type but this is my favorite character and I sturred and gurred my words fir a half hour at most when it was done. I definitely recommend it.

Just spent 2 hours building mine. WORTH IT!!

Looks awesome!

Fwoosh: Couldn't tell you what parts these are. I'm terrible at guessing puzzle pieces. Also Fwoosh: *continues to name the pieces*

Ive never been a fan of model kits but this has just pushed me to get this and other model kits ive seen

Finally bought the black series Grievous. The Hasbro cape and sabers look great on the Bandai Kit! Great for people who don’t want to go third party. Still, can’t wait for the CJEISM cape to compare.

That came out great! Now I want one....

The details are amazing ! I needs to get it as soon its available in my crappy country xD

Damn, this certainly will make a fine addition to my collection!

Can't wait to get mine

I just bought this on ebay today cant wait to get it !!

A fun addition to my collection

Can't believe I missed this video. Came out soo long ago lol... great vid as usual

i got one one these today in the mail...literally because i seen this video an thought it looked so cool first model ever ,let's see how it goes

That's a nice kit. I did the R2 & 3PO kits based on your reviews and they were fun. This one looks a bit complex for me.

love to paint this! AWESOME action figure! your review is so helpful! many thx!

Ahhh....General Kenobi. How nice of you to drop by.

HAHA!! Love that you're using the Mezco Deadpool flight stand as the instruction holder!

My dad actually got this for my birthday, and I remember getting so stressed and frustrated about putting the pieces together. I tried to follow the instructions, but it was a bit hard for me. It also didn’t help that the language was in Japanese/Chinese and that only some sentences had English in it. Even though I’m part Japanese and understand how to speak some simple words in that language. Like, I know how to speak dog, cat, car, etc in Japanese. I used to speak Japanese pretty well when I was younger, I think. But I forgot how to speak most Japanese words as I got older (I’m 14 now). I think it’s because I was exposed to English a lot more. I only know a few Japanese words now, for some reason. Anyway, I ended up with a not-so-good Grievous. I was starting off good, but soon, the instructions was becoming a bit challenging. My dad was at work and my mom left to go shopping, so I didn’t have anyone to help me. Eventually, after some time struggling, I broke a few pieces in a fit of rage and started crying. I had anger issues, but I’m good now. I was like, 11 or 12 when this happened, I think. I felt guilty since my dad brought it and he basically wasted the money for nothing. One of Grievous’ ear pieces broke off eventually since those pieces were pretty fragile and could break easily.

I just got this figure and finished it and yea, that part with the neck was a pain to put together. But nothing will compare to putting the lego technic bugatti together, which involved putting the front chassis and back chassis together after being built. Also the figure is awesome with or without paint. Great video!!!!!

I watched your video and bought this. Took 2 months to arrive. The neck/collar piece peg you talked about took me about a half hour to get and I had to take it apart twice. Outside of that I love this! He looks great on the shelf. I’m curious to see how Figuarts and BS ones look like when they finally come out.

Glad they include soft goods with this Plamol Kit. I like soft goods.

I have the model Luke and these things are pretty awesome

Good job on the reviews Robo, you respond to every comment, you make good reviews, Take some break if you need, haha, you've done great.

Visually Grievous is IMO one of the best, if not the best, looking character in the whole Star Wars Universe. The whole concept of his character is just awesome. I have the Hasbro Black Series. My sole complaint is there aren't ball joints at the ankles like this one has. Other than that it's one of my favorite figures.

Damn you Robo. Now I've gone a bought one... can't wait! Will definitely get the ableitung 502 oils onto this guy to weather!

Look amazing! I just ordered from Amazon just after watching this! Came back to tell you two things 1-. THANK YOU! 2-. Wow what a QC nightmare would be a Mafex Grievous would be!

“Aren’t you a little short to be General Grievous?”

Yeah me too! I ordered 2 of them. I wasn’t aware of the two pack or I would’ve got 1 and 1 instead.

Wow the eye part is double injection molded nice

Bandai makes great stuff

If you guys are looking for tips on building the figure you can always use nail clippers they worked so well when I built my Bandai grievous and I’m just 11 years old none of the pieces even broke

So excited to get mine. I had that one part of my mind when starting the review that it might be horrible but im glad that I was wrong. Btw how is the stand that comes with him?

Great review buddy, Im not overly sold on it though, something about model kits puts me off and I don't know why, I'm really hoping S.H. Figuarts brings a decent version out, thank you for the Battle Droid comparison that makes me think I should get him as a 'Just in case' figure.... P.s love that your committed to the models with ur 5am curfew i actually ran over my dinner at work because I was watching this review lol

You missed an opportunity to say that this will be a fine addition to your collection

You know, all Bandai model plastic is polystyrene, so if you buy a bottle of Tamiya Ultra-Thin Plastic Cement, you can easily apply it to the finicky parts that pop off so that they never do so again! The stuff works better than any glue since it dissolves and welds the plastic parts together on contact, thus making a better, more long-lasting bond.

I WANT THIS NOW

I'm into star wars since a child .love clone wars ,wish they make old Republic before clone wars .anyway, I bought the model .love it, interesting enough find it on u tube about General Grievous,IWTF lol want asoka and darth Vader .and so on .love your videos. Manny from Brooklyn NY.make more please.

Find addition to my collection

This kit is well worth it :)
