I've heard great things online about this kit, but your review puts it over the top for me. I'll have to get it after I build the Physo Zaku and Full Armor Gundam. Also, I've come to respect and enjoy your reviews and recommendations Jabman. Because of you I've come to really love this hobby!

youre the only gunpla reviewer that i know so far that really sees the details of a kit and tell how it would be used on a realistic situation and really connect the kit to its anime/manga origin. great job!

@DZMaven7 жыл бұрын
I have mine nearly finished. Just waiting to top coat it. It is a great build and looks very nice. It does feel sparse on exterior details but certainly not a deal breaker. I don't think the bullpup gun is that bad, it's just a standard sidearm type weapon.
@titan1337603 жыл бұрын
Lorewise, the GM Sniper II was given the bullpup SMG in situations where they have to fight inside space colonies. That way, they don't risk puncturing the walls of the colony, which will happen significantly if they used beam rifles

If they would make a NT-1 2.0, Kampfer 2.0 and a Zaku FZ to go along with this kit then I'd be a very happy man.

I'll be happy even if they make the Zaku FZ an RE line but yes, Kampfer 2.0 needs to be a thing. Wont happen anytime soon or at all but I'd love to see a Master Grade line of all the suits from 0080.

The weapons included with the GM sniper 2 are A bullpup machine gun, and the sniper rifle. I'm not sure why, but the mass production of this unit does not use any beam weapons...I believe there is one version that does use a beam sniper rifle from the GM Sniper 1, but....

Actually jabman it mostly uses MG RX-78-2 2.0's frame for the kit it doesn't use Gundam the origin frame at all I believe (though I may be wrong about it not using the origin frame) and honestly out of all the kits eligable to get a RE1/100 treatment the GM Sniper 2 made sense it could of gotten a MG instead

As someone that just built the torso of this kit, it can be a bit difficult at times. It would be recommended to flip it up using your x-acto blade, a flathead screwdriver, or something similar. Keep in mind you won't see the full pilot, just his legs.

@killerx2011ify7 жыл бұрын
Steffey Cheers mate, I am really stuck between the two as they're both excellent kits. The one issue for this kit in my opinion is that it can't hold the machine gun with the sniper rifle, as in if it had a gun holder for the machine gun. I would've choose this in a heartbeat.
@steffy27 жыл бұрын
Yuan Fang Qian Cant help you with that :| but you can always give the gun to Another Kit and make it dual wield XD also you already have unused beam saber effects lying around with both kits so a Sandwich bag would solve Most problems :D also if it helps, I think that in the Anime(or was this from a ova?) it never had a machine gun

Alexander Unknown this guy predates the zaku and big gun by decades you realize? also the big gun isn't as big as some zaju variants cause once an MSV verison of the zaku with an giant ass gun bigger than the big gun was shown in prototype stage for a MG but it never happened
@superkawaii83157 жыл бұрын
Jetfire48 I was refering to the order the models were released in but if we are talking canon the gm sniper II was in 0080 and thunderbolt took place during 0079 so that would mean the big gun predates this gm. Correct me if i'm wrong.
@Arrowdodger7 жыл бұрын
On the contrary, I think a relatively simple kit can be nice, especially after how complicated some of them have been, and this was a mobile suit that was sorely due for a release

It's cheap and people like cheap and they like the MG sign in the corner of the box. And they like that they don't have to spend a week snapping the kit, like the Psycho Zaku demands for example. But it's so much of a meh kit to me that I just can't believe the hype behind it!

Don't really know what argument I'm trying to put forth, just that even for a simple kit people still enjoy it. It still has good articulation and all that but so what if it has such few accessories? Why would it need more? If you don't like the design of a mobile suit don't buy it I guess.
