Bandai sets the world on fire with a little kit that's worth many times its weight in gold with the Entry Grade RX-78-2 Gundam -- simple to build, color accurate, fully articulated, everyone wants to experience this kit -- but Bandai hasn't made it easy, so come see what it's all about! Included in this review is a comparison of the EG Gundam with all its HG brothers too so many sure to check that out!

I've been watching hundreds of Gunpla videos for the last couple of months (bought my first model back in October) and I've only now found this wonderful channel. Honestly, this is top tier Gunpla content. Videos are well shot, edited, concise and give cool background information. Subscribed and waiting for more! I'll share the link with Polish Gunpla community because you this channel definitely deservers more views! Good job and good luck

Such encouraging words, thank you so much, and I'm very glad the format is something you enjoy! Sure hope more fans from the Polish community can drop by:) I'll keep working hard on new videos!

One of the first kits I bought when I got back into gunpla after a long break after my first discovery. It’s a very nice kit, but doesn’t really hold up. Wish we got more entry grades.

as someone that have lots of Starscreams littering the house, my spouse is beyond explanation now and just goes with it lol. stumble upon your channel while researching SDEX Nu (conclusion: get the BB Senshi '14 one lol), and your review is great! concise and quite funny at times, keep up the good work!

@HobbyClubhouse 3 жыл бұрын

Thank you for your very kind words, I'll definitely continue to work hard! The BB Senshi #387 Nu Gundam really is a great kit -- lots of stuff out of the box, and the colors look great. It's definitely a solid choice over the SDEX and also, any spouse that can accommodate a Starscream / RX-78 variant line-up is a keeper:)

First time hearing about the drama, very eye-opening for me. And yeah, Bandai can be a scumbag more than sometimes. For the kit, I got it much later after initial release at the retail price. And since the color separation was so good, I painted it to be a RX78--1 easily with mostly with spray cans.

@HobbyClubhouse 2 жыл бұрын

Kinda glad Bandai didn't do (actually, they tried and couldn't do) the same with the EG Strike Gundam. The Nu Gundam though... Bandai's probably going "Alright, third time's the charm"

My main problem with this kit is the looseness of the joints I own this kit,and its joints have just become loose everywhere The knees were the worst,so bad I had to glue them so they’d stop the kit from falling over It’s a great kit,but it really doesn’t last Ironically,it’s about as stable as the original RG RX 78 after a while

@HobbyClubhouse 2 жыл бұрын

I totally agree. When I reviewed this kit, it was young and fresh and after a year, even on my size comparison one that doesn't move much, the joints feel quite loose. It's a sad price to pay for all the joints being done in polystyrene like the rest of the kit

@@HobbyClubhouse imagine a RE but with a very old innerframe and it cost the same or more than a perfect grade. It's honestly just overpriced and they never fixed or add anything new to improve the innerframe only some change to some of the outer armor and a new head. And the things surrounding it including the big gun is RE quality but the build is about as good as an old NG.
