"I don't really like the Zeong all that much." Ah. Yet another soul weighed down by gravity, who believes legs are good for anything but aesthetics.

"it has no legs." -guy in a red suit.

I always felt the Zeong was an underappreciated mobile suit. The 70s aesthetic isn't for everyone, but it does have a menacing presence about it and in canon was a monster. Glad to hear the RG treatment is good!

Zeong is the coolest design they ever made... imho

We need RG Gouf already

Legs and the sword will be P-Bandai.

I used to think the Zeong was pretty dumb looking but once I grabbed this kit, my sentiments changed. I really love how it's not just another Zaku or Gundam swap with some sort of gimmick. It does things that other mobile suits don't. Legs aside, it's aesthetically different. Very different and I've come to appreciate the very old school 1950s/60s sci-fi robot look.

"legs on a space use Mobile Suit is just decoration"

The design of the head and torso really suggest that the Zeong is designed with 'up' as a primary axis of movement driven the by the leg replacement thrusters, as opposed to usually standing on legs. So while the overall project would no doubt supposed to be making a legged version too, it kind of seems like we're looking a dedicated space superiority Zeong variant that is supposed to use giant vectored thrusters to outmaneuver other suits in microgravity, as opposed to a hasty retrofit since the legs weren't ready. A greyish primary color with red, blue, and yellow sections also makes seem like the Zeon Gundam.

I get the feeling I’m in the minority when I say that I’ve always loved the Zeong, never thought it didn’t look cool

I’m getting this next month. Building and posing this will be fun and I hope this has an expansion pack to make it into the perfect zeong.

Not gonna lie; I like the Zeong's design. In fact, it's the first gundam kit I've bought in a year or two.

I love the weird 70s designs from MS Gundam. Definitely going to pick this up.

I bought this thing on a whim and DAMN it slaps. It’s becoming my favorite build and kit so far because of how unique and outlandish it is compared to yet another Gundam.

I felt like Zaku, I wasn't a fan of the Zeong but the more I saw this kit, I loved it.

I ordered mine from USA Gundam store, the last shooting effect, and I can't wait for it to come!

zeong face always creep me out and i love it,its a great ms in B.O

this is by far one of the best looking gundam models, and how chunky and layered he is just adds to that quality what a great gundam i only own him and sazabi but i do love the chunky ones, its definitely much better having the accessories

I just ordered it. Cant wait to build it.

This is so great. Incredible kit.

What i like from this kit is its inner frame are scary af, like i saw someone customizing this kit only with the inner frame

Now we need a HG 1/144 Big Zam

I'm hard pressed not to call this kit-of-the-year already - I'm in luv, and really affirms RG's status of late. Agree with you Zach that any RG coming out is now at a fantastic engineering standard. For me, the Force Impulse was a meh Gundam for my personal tastes, but man the RG did a 180 on my opinion. Simply stellar kit OOTB and now a big fan of the Impulse design. Can't help but dream of RG Kampfer, GP02a, Gelgoog's, Gouf's (a Flight Type RG would amazeballs), Gerbera Tetra, Zaku III, GMs, The O, Marasai, Xeku Eins, heck even Barbatos.... and of course, the Dom ;) ps - it's time for RG Zaku II 2.0 tbh, and I'd also say to Bandai, please redo Thunderbolt in RG, it'd be an ideal small scale format for those designs too

i used to built these kits 20years ago. now i just bought new one a sd cleopatra and it took me 1hour 40mins. i felt connected so i bought this RG Zeong and start wondering how long it gonna take me to finish it.

Can you plug the MG Zaku 2's legs in where the thrusters go?

Zach: I dont like it that much, why does it have antlers? Also Zach: I love the Banshee

Great kit. From a design sta d point though i never understood why they would put a metal bar in front of the mono eye. Isn't it the main camera?

it's here !

is it the first rg that doesn't have a pilot minifigure?

Your review convinced me to choose this one. lol. i can't wait to paint its inner frame in metal.

It's a great kit for sure, but I'm going for the Sazabi instead. I do agree though, that recent RGs, this included, are really something else. Are you getting the new RG Eva?

RG has become my favorite line

Before I built it I didn’t believe you saying it is similar to sazabi I was like no way. Now that I built it I understand exactly what you said 😅

I'll take 5th. Thanks for the video.

Kinda wanna see what an RG Ibo kit would look like- but then again i don’t know if it’d make sense

god damm can't wait for mine to be delivered

I got the last shooting version can’t wait for it

Now i want perfect zeong but it will release as prebandai. out of topic : rg set perfect gundam and perfect zeong would be nice !

I like how it looks like a snail with antlers

if they make a p-bandai kit that offers legs then I demand that they make an RG perfect gundam.

You should have gotten the final shot version it is a really good model especially with the parts and additional other effects

I can't un-see the french fries, at least the zeong will never go hungry..

The design looks a little wonky, but this RG is so unique it makes me want it more. However, I would probably cut down the horns to streamline it a bit.

for me it isnt about the lack of legs. its the rounded (front butt) skirt. had it has more angular skirt i'd prolly like it more. heck i liked it above the waist

I'm still waiting for the P-Bandai legs expansion set for RG Zeong.

It finally happened, Bandai made an RG that I feel like I want to buy. The other ones either had decent 1/100 scale versions or I just didn't care at all for the MS itself, but this one... This thing looks so much better than the MG in every aspect that if I had to choose I'd go with it, even if the scale is smaller than I like.

i didnt think i would like it,but it looks cool

Reminds me of the thunderbolt zeong from later in the manga

I kinda like the design - except the mouth area. If I ever got the kit I would have to fill it in and paint it to make the face plate just a solid piece.

How would you recommend painting the fingers, especially the joint?

can anyone tell me if rg gundam wing is a difficult build? my brother wants to get into it and i purchased one for him

This is probably the scariest one for me cause it kinda gave the same vibes of actual medieval/ww1/ww2 scary stuffs

really hope they make the rg khastria

Looks like panel lining hell, but I want one

I prefer the Perfect Zeong, I think it looks so much more menacing with legs

Please paint this in Char colors (more like Sazabi/Sinanju)

What a big lad

is zeong 1/144 is the same size in Nu Gundam and sazabi?

I used gunpla marker on mine. Very hostile to the stickers, but its shiny!

I didn't like the zeong either, but this kit is changing my mind.

2:47 - I've decided. Everybody needs to start calling me "Laser Fingers" now. We'll figure out why later.

I wish i had that todesritter

Im still debating if I want to get this lol

I don't know if it's a good Kit.. I just ordered it and still waiting for it. My first RG too. The Design of Zeong is very odd.. But I really love the this RG version of Zeong. My choice's are RG Sazabi, RG Nu and Hi Nu.. Also RG God Gundam... But Zeong really shine for me..

I still waiting for mine T^T

I must ask, does this mean USAG has these in stock?

there will be zeon with legs

Zeong is definitely a very Japanese take on Darth Vader

So gundamstore has them in? Good I know what I'm buying next payday

Never liked the Zeong, always thought it looked dorky af. But this RG design really made it look good. RG has really surpassed the MG line in terms of details. Other than size, there's no reason to buy a MG anymore

I buy it is cool

yea not a fan of the zeong i like char in the zaku and the gelgoog i still want to build this

These are available in Canada at $100 CND each; I can get 4 HG kits for that much. It's the stickers, though; why can't RG kits have good waterslides? Probably not buying this.

No pilot figure?

Being early isn't always a good thing in more ways than one.

P Bandai RG Perfect Zeong when?

Hi Bandai... RG Nightingale pls❤❤❤

Awesome kit but won't buy since rn I'm only buying unicorn kits

Actually i love rg zeong than hg zeong :)

It's a shame that the RG Rx-78 is so old and flawed

Mg please!

makes me sad that the rg zeong is always sold out here in the Philippines

I'm really not a fan of how the RG line clutters these great classic designs with tons of extraneous greebles and markings. This doesn't look as bad as some - like the MK II, but the skirt is a mess in my opinion. I would love to have some nice 1/144 scale kits of old school designs that have the articulation and color separation of RGs, but without the forced conformity to modern design trends that they weren't initially designed with in mind. I would almost be willing to grab a kit like this and modify it so to restore it to something closer to the original.

Great model of a design I don't care for.

EA: Here's our new mobile suit! Customer: But where are the legs. EA: Oh, you need to get the DLC for those.

1th

All in all, I'm sure this is a great kit, with all kinds of gimmicks and details. But what really threw me off is that no-legs crippled look. And under the skirt, you can indeed see two "stumps" with red thrusters in them, as if this guy used to have legs.

0:21 LOL why even build gunpla?

DUMMY THICC

Difable mobile suite

Beware of usagundamstore, they charge 5% of order amount to cancel an unfulfilled order
