The C-packs deactivated (dark gray) is a good addition to the kit because it can be painted without sacrificing the activated mode (the pink one?). I'mma paint mine in Cosmic Metallic Blue or just Shiny Silver!

The plastic-type stickers brings me back the Jewel-type stickers on old-gundam torsos or how they manufactured like that. ( Particularly MG Shining Gundam's shiny green jewel sticker )

the articulated hands resemble the zaku ii 2.0 hands which have been *the best* articulated hands for 1/100 until now I'm a huge fan of these new ones

Really like this video format! Can't wait for the next part

im so excited for this kit

I love the colours you picked. Im very excited to see it finished.

Love the video, like hearing your thought process and all the details.

I’m not sure why I expected the deactivated psychoframe to be like a smoky clear dark grey opposed to opaque solid grey.

Thanks for the review man. Hope you and your family are doing good. Can't wait to see your finished custom on this one as well.

I think the color pallet you chose is very interesting, can’t wait to see the final result!

I have two coming specifically so I can build a "what if" completed version of the Narrative. Very excited.

Definitely can't wait to get my Narrative Gundam. Great custom idea and review Zak.

That shoes color scheme + a fedora hat = PERRY THE GUNDAM

Love it! That head sculpt is fantastic

Damn that's cool, I'll prefer it on base armor instead of the psycho frame.

I can't wait to see your final build. Great video btw!

I love this format of video! Great job!

Why there's no in hand shot of the kit Zack you let me down Zack Why????

You can ALSO get the white color Shield DE from the perfectibility unicorn.

Thanks zack for the video keep it up! More old hguc reviews would be awesome!

22:13 looks cool!

I have a spare Beam Magnum I might use on this as well.

great review! cant wait for some mad lad modeler to custom build a1/100 A packs for it.

21:40 you might have forgotten to rotate the pilot figure in the core fighter.

i might have to pick this up as my first UC MG, i was gonna stick to 1/144 UC for consistency (and to save my wallet) but the HG c-packs was my very first ever gunpla and I'm sentimental

Hopefully this suggestion isn't too late! Instead of the silver deactive psycho plates, you could instead take this opportunity to resin cast the psycho plate into a clear teal colour and keep the 2 tone white/cream combination of the shoe!

I wonder if they are going to make a A-packs conversion... that would be pretty awesome. I heard that this kit was pretty solid, I hope to get my hands on it sometime soon.

I'll wait for the MG Narrative A Pack.

Especially with the inner frame painting I'd be curious about the durability of paints. No matter how I coat my kits after the paint job, I find myself not wanting to handle them anymore. had a action base scrape some of the inner leg paint right off exposing the primer grey

I have to say out the this, the nu and unicorn I think this is my favorite. And that's saying alot. Mabey the fact it's simple and has a core fighter like the grandaddy... sometimes though. 😊

Is it possible to fit the luminous crystal psycho frame into narrative?

Hey zakk do you any have any tips for diassembling this kit?

Fun fact: The nu gundams fin funnel backpack actully goes on perfectly to the narrative, its not mentioned anywhere on anything

Great build guide, really clear instructions! 👍🤖

a MG A-Packs is going be massive, probably surpassing the MG Deep Striker.

Now the question is would bandai dare make an Mg narrative A-packs…probably be p-bandai but that would be awesome

Not a fan of Narrative Gundam. But this kit looks very nice! Looking forward to the customizations results.

Are those hose plastic stickers the same as the green and red ones on the MGEX Strike Freedom?

Are the psychoframes compatible with the mgex? The narrative looks good. The core fighter is insane! The ab crunch is phenomenal

👍👍👍👍

Where is the 2022 Psychoframe runner from? Like from a new Unicorn variant? Are the new unicorn ver ka reprints also seeing the 2022 runner?

Fellow lore nerds out there, could anyone clear something up for me: Is the C-packs just spare parts for the RX-0 unit one or was the Unicorn really dismantled. Cause I remember this scene from NT where Mineva brings up what seems like a live feed of the Unicorn Gundam with seals all over its body. The Mobile Suit seemed pretty much intact.

Do you think they will ever do the A pack

When is the estimated time these will start showing up in US stores?

I thought the gray psycho-frame are a clear part. It is not and it just a gray part like inner-frame!??

The shield would go for like 33 bucks in the jp market Not sure what it's like in the West and honestly don't want to find out

Should I matt spray all the white runners before assembling them? Or in which best step where we apply the coating?

take the kit apart is pain in the ass after build it

I've become bored with the same old gundan design and don't bother with them anymore. There basically all the same. But I do like this one and I will get it, plus being ver.KA we get water slides (which is standard with every single model brand out there). Bandi has a business model and that's to make as much money from the customer as possible. With the cost of living way out of control prices of model kit are unrealistic and an absolute rip-off. The only kits where I felt I got my money's worth was Yolopark's Optimus prime and Shock wave. It's just disappointing my hobby is getting more expensive as well. When the PG Strike came out it cost me $123.95AUD now HG kits cost this much. Rip-off.
