For me every RG after the Unicorn is worth buying because of the quality, and playability, below that though, just get it if you really have to collect it

I started building RG line with MK-II and fell in love with RG line and Gunpla.

The RG line always interest me, great engineering and sometimes surpasses the MG but I can’t get myself into it cause of their smaller scale and I find the 1/100 ones the right amount of shelf presence. Though the 1/144 ones saves space.

Great review the RG line is definitely my favorite as well and the RX-78-2 was the first kit I bought and built in 2010 after not building since 1999. Keep up the great reviews.

Glad you put the rg mk-ii at no. 2 🔥🔥

RG is my favorite line.

Not gonna lie I clicked on the video thinking the title said " Top 10 + Real Grades As Told By A Fairly Drunk Australian"

I just got my RG Quanta 2 days ago and builted it i immediately fell inlove with the RG LINES

The nu gundam is what i have been looking for and the unicorn.. Nu gundam for me is good and unicorn gundam for me is uiniqe.

Favorite RG kits I've built: Astraea Type F Tallgeese II Unicorn Perfectability Quanta Full Saber (Trans Am clear)

I’m just happy I got the Rg Nu, Sazabi and Unicorn, still wishing to have the crossbone ( I love the core fighter gimmick )

that titanium looks dang premium!

Nice and detailed top 10! You're into the awkward poses though.. at least 3 years ago🤣

There's something about the look and feel of a Real Grade that's hard to describe. They're just neat. I like how you usually don't need any paint at all, unlike HGs where you nearly always do. I got the Tallgeese first, followed by the Z'Gok, Quan-T and Full Armour Unicorn. They're all great, but I probably like the Tallgeese best. I definitely have my eye on the Gundam MkII and Sazabi.

I have built both the RG crossbone and nu gundam(I was lucky and got the funnel effect version) and they both blew me away

My first ever model kit RG RX782 back in 2016. And I make a vow to collect it all.

people complain about the “ early real grade syndrome”. As if the early hg mg pg didn’t have problems lol. RG is a much newer grade line than the other ones, of course it takes time for them to really master the technology.

Damn. So many of the awesome RG kits are P-Bandai. Which means $$$ outside of Japan. 😡

the unicorn gundams are really frustrating, i've broken its arms twice. it such a good build, but man, i couldn't not break it haha. maybe i'm just cursed on Unicorn gundams

I know they're right at the middle stage of RG releases, but I rareley have probs with them, but Mark you being an RG fan, get those Trans-Am Clear 00 RG's. I have a ton of RG's and I gotta say they look like NOTHING ELSE on the shelf. They are SO beautiful. All 3. The Qant is ridiculous. I got the Qant Full Saber and looks wise, it may be my favorite kit. They light up like a Christmas tree under a blacklight/UV, much like the Banshee. GET THEM.

I got a lot of RG in my backlog: Zaku II grunt Exia Strike Freedom Sinanju Sinanju Clear color Crossbone X1 Crossbone X2 Tallgeese Tallgeese II Tallgeese III Nu Gundam Sazabi Sazabi Clear Color Unicorn Unicorn Bande Desinee Unicorn Bili Bili Unicorn Perfectibility x2 Full Armor Unicorn Banshee x2 Banshee Final Battle Version Phenex Really looking forward to building them all.

IDK WHY BUT PEOPLE KEEP TELLING ME TO AVOID THE ZAKU II RGS CAUSE IT HAS ALOT OF ISSUES I BOUGHT THE NORMAL ONE AND IT WAS REALLY FUN TO BUILD

Top 10+ HG next?

Wanna ask how long have you own the GP01? I really love the design, probably one of my fav, but too scared to get it since reading a lot of negative reviews

Great video! Digging the beard 🧙‍♂️

I'm surprised you didn't put the Real Grade Gold Frame Amatsu Mina here.

We will try to update this list yearly with every kits we review You can find more in depth reviews of all theses kits right here: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/kLKfdsuQt6vFZ3k.html

interesting stuffs

My quick take of the ones I've built Unicorn/Banshee, aile stike, mk-ii, astray- completely agree with your review I love my Johnny ridden zaku, no issues with it Tallgeese- one of the best, the verniers are more solid than the mg Gp01-love the details but i hate its core fighter; it always wants to separate at the torso. Plus its shoulder armors wishbone connection is brittle. Exia- great kits but greatly hindered by its front skirts (limits leg range) Destiny- another going on poses okay but assesories like to fall off Wing gundam kits- simple, nothing amazing but good I really want the nu and sazabi but I have some mgs I should finish before thinking about getting those bas boys

1:48 wrong box art.

I've been in love with the rg line when i first built astray red frame and of the i kits and from worst to best imo would be Wing ew Wing zero ew Astray red frame 00 qant Mk2 titans colors Tallgeese ew Unicorn Crossbone x1

How about 00 Raiser?

My rg justice fell apart right out of the box / now i'm guessing mine was just defective

Was this made before the crossbone came out?

My factually and objectively best top 10 - (I'm putting them in terms of how well I think Bandai succeeded in making these kits and what they mean for the line): 10. Gundam Mk II - A.E.U.G. This is the only Gundam I want in PG. I love this design to bits. The MS joint frame is a crap shoot. Maybe yours is good, maybe it's not. Mine is somewhere in between. Otherwise it's pretty damn solid and a huge step up from RG #1 in my opinion. Everything works well and the tolerances are good. The vinyl tubing looks great (use a lighter to singe the ends) and it shows how fast Bandai progressed with RG's. 9. Crossbone Gundam Everything about this kit is awesome if you look at it like a kid would. It's the same with the AGE kits, you need to revert to what your 12 year old self would think about it. The plastic cape is awesome and they've stuffed a lot of gimmicks into the tiniest of Gundam's (at least of RG's). My issue with it is that the core fighter is a bit hard to fit into the mobile suit, meaning the tolerances could've been better. 8. Unicorn Gundam/Banshee/FA It's impressive in that it transforms and does it well. Personally, I think the white (and blue for the Banshee) plastics look cheap and while it's impressive that it can transform, there are some loose parts (needed to glue the inner thigh plates) and it'll inevitably end up looking not-quite-transformed because it doesn't keep everything set. It also uses a lot of MS joints through its frame. The boosters on the FA version fall out a lot and it's just a tad too heavy with a lot of loss risks. Needs stickers to break up all the white. These are great kits, but I can't help but feel that Bandai could've done this better. 7. Tallgeese Personally my favourite RG kit. Solid as a rock, superb expressive poses, well balanced and probably has the best rifle out of all of gunpla. The white plastic, however, is a tad brittle (breaking hazard) and the verniers are fiddly. This is where RG was reborn and went from something interesting to something fantastic. They gave up on the MS inner frame and instead finally allowed themselves to make the best 144th scale kits they could. If I can get the TV version, I'll buy that, because it's the perfect excuse to make this kit again. I recommend all of these kits, but especially this one. 6. Wing Gundam The redesign of the original TV version is, in my opinion, a succesful upgrade that makes it look like the WING Gundam it was meant to be (and in my opinion far better looking than the Wing Gundam EW). The way the wings spread looks absolutely amazing and while the flight modes are still lame, they at least look good. A few flaws with the extremely tight fit for the shell parts of the head and the green lens needing to be glued in. 5. Nu Gundam It has some balance issues due to the weight and attached fin funnels, but it poses like a champ otherwise and looks amazing. However, some dislike the design differences between this, the Katoki kit and the original design. It also has less surface detail in some parts than the Ver.Ka which some might consider an unfair criticism. I think the kit raises questions and it puts this below others. One of my all time favourite Gundam designs is the F91, so if an RG is made and it looks significantly different, then I'll be annoyed. 4. Sazabi is probably *the* most popular RG kit. It looks good, it works well and it doesn't flop around despite its size. I will remind people though, that this is not easy to pose and/or balance as everything gets in the way of itself due to how bulky everything is. Additionally the shield connection could have been more solid. There are also the shoulders which are a break risk. 3. Hi-Nu Gundam. I don't have it. I've looked at all the reviews I can find and it looks as solid as an RG gets. If the tolerances are better than the Nu/Sazabi, then this is where it belongs. My main argument that this will be "better", is that the balance looks good and that it looks like they've learned from previous kits, even the best ones. The reason it will never be the top kit is the injection molded silver and gold, which are pathetic and ugly. Every toy maker on the planet knows this is a terrible plastic and that it goes bad due to the inconsistency of how it mixes. If I need to paint in order to fix a mistake, then I consider that a big minus and a regression of model kit making. 2. People will disagree, but they are wrong: Force Impulse Gundam. You need to understand that I detest this Gundam. I hate the pilot (Shinn is even worse than Kira), I don't like how it looks with its baby blue parts, I hate the 3 piece in-air assembly, I am absolutely furious about the way the core fighter drops its missile pods every time it transforms, I don't like that there's a separate transport jet and the white cap on the beam rifle scope looks stupid. Why isn't this red instead of the melee version, to match the wings? Why does the shield extend and reveal it's thinner internals? Why is there a flap which only purpose is to hide the face in the split-apart-flying mode? As much as I dislike nearly everything about it, it is a flawless kit. There is nothing wrong with this kit what so ever, in fact the tolerances are superb. I think it's a step up from Sazabi and Nu in how well everything fits together and the fact that they've managed to fit a core fighter between the waist and chest and have the whole thing be absolutely rock solid. This kit is mindblowingly good and for anyone who thinks the Sazabi or Nu deserves to be above this, you need to understand that while those are great kits I have my criticisms about them, but I can't fault this kit on anything and I doubt Bandai could've made this kit better in any way. This is the new quality standard and if Bandai continues to make their RG's as good as this one, then Real Grade is indisputably the BEST grade of them all. 1. In my opinion, the best sucess of the RG line is the Zeong. It's an ambitious kit done right the whole way through. I don't think a lot of people like the way it looks, it's definitely odd and the antlers especially are so damn ugly, but Bandai have managed to make a "real" Zeong that makes sense in how it looks and the surface detail is so good throughout the whole of this kit. The posability/articulation of the kit is superb and while it needs its stand due to the nature of how it works, Bandai have given it the mechanics it needs to throw this thing into full body poses that make this the most expressive of all the RG kits. It's not flawless, the MS joint fingers can be weak/come apart and the hatches are fiddly, but I'm judging these by what I think they set out to do and how well they succeeded. While I think the Force Impulse is flawless it is also a relatively simple kit. You don't get to be the best by playing it safe, you become the best by pushing the entire line forwards and this is the best of what we've seen engineering wise from Bandai. It's so good, in fact, that I don't think we'll see a better RG than this for a decade. Nr. 0: RX-78-2. The first and "worst" RG kit. Do not buy this unless you want an overdesigned and overambitious fiddly kit with poor tolerances that drops parts. You will need to glue parts, the frame is a sloppy mess, you do NOT want to drop this thing and you'll need to glue the stickers back on five minutes after you've placed them. But man does this thing look amazing... Bandai did this for the 30th anniversary of gundam/gunpla and they started what is in my opinion, the single best line of model kits. Any experienced model kit builder should get this to understand what RG is about, what it came from and what it has ended up becoming with the last dozen or so kits. Other kits to be wary of: The Zeta Gundam - Complicated transformation, weak inner frame, do not expect to handle it more than a handful of times. A handful of youtubers have now claimed that this kit is not a "hand grenade", but not a single one of them has dropped one in front of a camera. ZakuAurelius excuses the kit as "it's not a toy", but conveniently neglects to hold the kit to the standards of other RG's. Make no mistake about it, this is a weak feeling kit that will make you feel uncomfortable to handle. Get it for the impressive engineering and a good looking kit, but only for the sake of really being into the hobby, otherwise save your money and avoid. The Sinanju - Very mixed complaints and an infamous kit. A loose waist, brittle parts, poor tolerances, heavy for its MS inner frame, comes apart in places, drops parts (skirts/knees) and it comes in a cheap tupperware red that makes it look at home with your kitchen appliances. Avoid. The Full Burnern - Midsection comes apart to fit the core fighter, very hard to pose without taking them apart, knee caps pop off easily. I'd imagine the Zephyrantes can have similar issues despite GN's opinion. It's not a bad kit, but it's not up to par with other RG kits, not even early ones. I'll recommend a Zaku II a dozen times over before getting this. I will say though, despite the MS joint frame, mine is entirely solid.

strike deactive mode

Fun Fact: If you buy all RG sets, the Top 10 will be among them.

Seeing that strike freedom reminds me of mine fart near it and it falls apart

What kind of display case are those

Is the rg sazabi beginner friendly?

Brave almost every1 i know or talked to have labelled the zeta as the worst RG ever made followed by the sinanju…

How about rx-93 not the titanium is great also

i have RG unicorn gundam HG nobel gundam HG phenex gundam HG destiny gundam HG diver ayame

RG God Gundam RG #20 XXXG-01W Wing Gundam RG #35 XXXG-01W Wing Gundam tv version RG Epyon Gundam RG RX-93-V2 Hi-nu Gundam This RG Gundam kit is missing to your collection or you have not mentioned this kit...

I hate the RX-78-2 so much, it's a handgrenade with the stupid sideskirts falling all the time. I'm not even joking, it made me hate the whole kit.
