Those aren't beam saber handles under the shield. That aside, another great review! You've gone and bumped my gyan krieger right to the top of my "backlog pile".
Fun fact. Those cylinders under the shield are not actually beam sabers, and are actually beam guns. They are one of the suits only two projectile attacks, the other being grenade launchers on the face of the shield
I'm honestly astounded that the red chest pieces are INDIVIDUALLY moulded, not together or stickers, but INDIVIDUALLY. I cannot stress enough how that is almost MG quality of part seperation. Although I could be wrong that other kits may have this as well
In reference to your comment about not being aware of any stickers that have been used for color-apps within vents - I recently built the Gundam Unicorn LOTO (Twin Set), an incredibly fun and surprisingly detailed kit with two small mobile suits inside, and was surprised to find that they make you use 4 tiny white stickers to color the two chest vents on each kit. This would have been fine if they were completely flat areas but they're not, the vents ZIG ZAG in & out, requiring you to really press hard on the stickers to make them stick, an act that you surely already know scratches the stickers and prevents them from having a smooth look. When I finally decide to paint the kit I'll be incredibly happy to remove those stickers and give it a proper look. If you have the chance you should definitely give the kit a try as it's dirt-cheap for what you get, has tons of weapon customization options and looks cool next to your more militaristic looking HGUC kits.
I would pull a Rolling Stones and paint it black with red highlights. Because as we all know, Super Robot Rules dictate that red and black is the most superior colour scheme. Maybe replace the head with the Gyancelot one possibly.
I always have a deep interest in any Mobile Suit kits in purple even if I don't care much about the suits design itself. Not a favorite design of mine but this kit does give me many ideas for detailing. This kit does have me excited.
Gyan Krieger is definitely an improvement over the original design in my eyes as well. It's a little too much purple for me personally, but the beefed up armor and the less goofy looking bell bottoms help. I'd love to get a P-bandai Ms-15s Gyan Ex from the Jupiter in Operation Titan U.C. 83 manga.
The colors inside vents were provided on the much-feared HGUC Nemo and its variants. I wanted a Nemo (Unicorn Desert Color Ver.) for my Dom Tropen (Unicorn Ver.) to slice, but not having the paint colors nor the patience for the masking involved, I gave the kit a pass.
I honestly thought that realistic panel lines and clear sticker decals/markings are going to be standard on all subsequent High Grades after the release of the Origin line Gunpla. Guess I was wrong.
This is an obscure design that only appears in an what if scenario from the Gihren's Greed games, the what if being 'What if the Gyan was selected for mass prosuction instead of the Gelgoog?'
This kit was my second ever P-Bandai purchase, and I loved it! I'm a straightbuilder so I was very grateful for the mostly very friendly gate placement. I love how medieval/gothic it looks, almost as if it's piloted by Dracula or something.
According to gundamwiki, those beam sabers under the shield are actually 2 barreled beam guns, weird I know for it being a melee MS, I guess that's why it doesn't look like it can slot beam saber effect parts?
aliff asyraf at 7:34 you can see he posed the Gyan K in a way that resembles a shooting pose so yeah I guess he realized it during the time he was recording the review.
After I built this kit, the most underwhelming thing was that the shield is so small. I dont know why I didnt notice it before, but it just looks so tiny compared to the rest of the kit.
if gundams and others can speak English Gyan kreiger would say WHY U P BANDAI MEEEE i would of gotten more buyings if i wasn't p bandai Exia: what about the rich people? Gyan kreiger: WHAT ABOUT THE DIE HARD UNICORN FANS??!! Arios: but there could be fish unicorn fans..... Gyan kreiger: WHAT ABOUT THOSE WITH AVERAGE CASH AND NOT RICH??!! exia: well u got a point there
Ah yeah~ the thing I was specific about is I don’t mean sticker on the vents them self’s, but the inner wall around the vent. But the Byarlant does have that too! Good point

Zen dude where have you been for hgs? The hguc jesta cannon does that exact same thing man
Jetfire48 which is why I've said I may be wrong, that there may be other superbly engineered kits
Zen I get that but attitude you had was really giving off a vibe that you barely build any hgs at all...
Jetfire48 I'm a working man, I hardly spend any time at home, watching reviews is mostly the only source of gunpla appreciation I can have haha

thats a dual beam gun under the shield, not beam sabers
Haro Genki TNSG247 At 7:34 you can see him use the shield undergun barrels in a shooting pose so yeah. He realized it during recording

The beam lance is what makes this kit. I wish the shield had been a different design, maybe something similar to the Tallgeese.
Would the parts be compatible with any if the other Gyans? Like the Gyancelot.
Great review brother!!! Awesome looking kit...
I'm a big fan of your works! Hope to see you soon! Love from the Philippines 🇵🇭
Looks like the G1 Galvatron toy....Gyanvatron!

One of the best kit of 2018
Why did this have to be a P Bandai kit... It looks so much better than the original Gyan
Can’t say I hate the original Gyan design (I know some do) but this design is leagues better than it
sean choy bandai is crazy
This is an obscure design that only appears in an what if scenario from the Gihren's Greed games, the what if being 'What if the Gyan was selected for mass prosuction instead of the Gelgoog?'
a hypothetical MG version of this would be interesting to see, again they will probably just make it P-Bandai.
Maybe an R/E? Since the Efreet got both HG and 1/100
I don't have a Gyan yet, I might have to pick this up!
Always hated the gyan head. But how about using an IBO graze head?
You guys should check out the other variations of the Gyan from this game. They look very good.
This kit was my second ever P-Bandai purchase, and I loved it! I'm a straightbuilder so I was very grateful for the mostly very friendly gate placement. I love how medieval/gothic it looks, almost as if it's piloted by Dracula or something.
the original Blue Destiny kit had colored stickers for vents.
Still hoping for bandai making the gyan high mobility and gyan marine
Nipple stiffening design, tg-3 looking shield, love that lance. Too bad i only go for MGs.
here's hoping for a resin conversion of this for the MG Gyan....
According to gundamwiki, those beam sabers under the shield are actually 2 barreled beam guns, weird I know for it being a melee MS, I guess that's why it doesn't look like it can slot beam saber effect parts?

3:13 don't think those are beam sabers... more like...shield mounted cannons?
Yeah it's a double barreled beam gun.
i wish this kit is just regular kit
Like the forearms, otherwise i personally prefer the revive
This kit is way too high quality to be p-bandai, i wouldnt be surprised if it was a last minute thing
Personally i like the look of the original gyan it reminds me of knight with a lance
The seam lines on the legs seem more like panel lines to be honest.
if gundams and others can speak English
Gyan kreiger would say WHY U P BANDAI MEEEE
i would of gotten more buyings if i wasn't p bandai
Exia: what about the rich people?
Gyan kreiger: WHAT ABOUT THE DIE HARD UNICORN FANS??!!
Arios: but there could be fish unicorn fans.....
Gyan kreiger: WHAT ABOUT THOSE WITH AVERAGE CASH AND NOT RICH??!!
exia: well u got a point there
a bit of a shame the mono eye doesn't move. really wish this wasn't a p Bandai kit I would've bought one of these
Does anyone get a Galvatron vibe from this fella?
Because this isn't bad comedy
1800 then. Now, more like 8000.
a cool lookin kit but it seems like the torso is a little too long kinda ruins it for me.
A kit that was too good to be normal released...
... because of *P-BANDAI!!!!!! >=(*
Byralant big stickers for thrusters
Ah yeah~ the thing I was specific about is I don’t mean sticker on the vents them self’s, but the inner wall around the vent. But the Byarlant does have that too! Good point
nice
yey
i thought this is an HGBF/D kit
Ooooo cool gyan but sad its p bandai
p bandai >:(
God! I really hate that head. But armed looks like a Nobody from kingdom hearts. I know mod it to looks like a villain from Kingdom Hearts.
this would look really good in silver and black
When will the next trash to treasure come our
Man I like this version of gyan a lot, but ~$44 is a lot for a HG.
