These figures get better and better. When I get mine I'm panel lining the hall out of it. I am curious think they might make weapon accessory packs? That could really be a game changer. Also as I said before with the ez8 we definitely need the custom gouf!!
Thanks for the honest review, Papa Krow. EZ really does look good. For $25 action figure made in China that’s pre painted and you don’t have to build, you get exactly what you pay for. If you can get it for less, it’s a bargain. If you want more, you’re paying more.
I just bought it, and it actually can rip the arm off. In the exact same place as in the show aswell! The top of the double joint, there is a mushroom peg holding it in. You can just pull it out with some force. To reduce the chance of snapping the joint, I suggest pulling from the double joint.
Hey Krow. Just wanna say be careful about using the song you used from 5:20 onward. People have gotten copyright claims from it; long story short, it sampled songs without permission, and the composer (whom I refuse to mention by name) wasn't helpful in resolving the situation at all.
@@TheKrowSama Not always, there are official depictions showing the shield in the same color as the EZ8's armor, although that sort of thing happens in Gundam in general. No biggie, just wanted to point it out.
The weapons that come with the ground type HG are so much better, and it also comes with the backpack. I guess it could be a good idea to pair them up, cause Ground Type comes with 3 rifles, so it can share some of them with the Ez8.
@@TheKrowSama lol, wtf, now i re watched and noticed the box at the beginning. I'm slow i guess, i was watching the video while building, so i probably missed some details. And yeah, it is worst now. I would have given an HG a pass.
I guess the gundam universe line would be ideal for younger kids? So far not impressed but would definitely get for a younger relative who might be a bit young for model building.
Ahh gundam universe ALMOST there to equal the model kit articulation and when they do (I hope) I will start buying them but right now, not yet. They are improving though and good job Bandai they look good and I like the style, again just the articulation that’s the downfall right now for me.

Shit has me wanting to do some battle damage to it lol.
please continue reviewing the gundam universe line
Battle damage version would be great on this figure if you want to touch up and paint more details on it.
0 out of 8! Can't rip the left arm to use as a weapon. Lol
Nah you can. Just pull harder.
Wayo, I think the mg and an old msia can rip off the arm to replicate that seen in the show.

please review the gundam universe deathscythe hell and banshee norn
In my opinion the EZ8 is the best Gundam to advertise to the USA as it's based off something part of American history.
Sy3 Of Gunpla it’s not based off of anything but it’s name was similar to what happend to Sherman ez8. They where field modified tanks
@@sy3studio how do you think Atlanta was burned down? Gundams!
The EZ8 Gundam universe is AMAZING

nice..very informative as always....
- looks good on the diorama... :)
thanks for the review Krow :)
Love this thing, 08th ms team was one of my favorite series. I've never had the mg version of ez8 but I'm pretty happy with this one.
Def the best looking one for sure
Panel lining this thing looks absolutely fantastic no matter how you put it, the way I have mine looks exactly like it came from the OVA
The machine gun is kinda small, and the shield is in a different color. Wish you could also check out the Strike, it actually looks good as well.
The shield has always been a different color
@@TheKrowSama Not always, there are official depictions showing the shield in the same color as the EZ8's armor, although that sort of thing happens in Gundam in general. No biggie, just wanted to point it out.
This is the reason why i love uc designs, their so boxy and have amazing color schemes
Maybe if this line continues we'll get the gundam ground type and the gouf custom down the road
It just hit me that the Ez8 from the 08th MS Team, is GU figure no 8... Good job bandai.
It just feels odd that more attention to detail went into the weapons and accessories on the original 3.5 in version.
What scale are those buildings?
Too clean, this boy needs some dirt.
and the severally arm break
The weapons that come with the ground type HG are so much better, and it also comes with the backpack. I guess it could be a good idea to pair them up, cause Ground Type comes with 3 rifles, so it can share some of them with the Ez8.
this is much larger than the HG
@@TheKrowSama Ah, i had no idea it's the MG. Especially with those awful weapons. Now in this context, it's even worst a bit, for me.
@@dunka12 lol it's not a MG. It's an action figure.
@@TheKrowSama lol, wtf, now i re watched and noticed the box at the beginning. I'm slow i guess, i was watching the video while building, so i probably missed some details. And yeah, it is worst now. I would have given an HG a pass.
Hope they add the gp01 and 2 in the gundam universe line
I really hope they do one obscure mobile suit every wave
I guess the gundam universe line would be ideal for younger kids? So far not impressed but would definitely get for a younger relative who might be a bit young for model building.
Thanks for your reviews on these! Please be sure to do Tallgeese!
Aww man its already assembled!
Damn. Now i want an EZ-8
They really did the 3rd wave justice all of them look great
are you going to review the tallgeese
We'll see
Why do their legs only bend 90 degrees? Is there a particular reason for it? Do kids break it easier if it bends anymore or something?
You would think they'd break it less!
I like your display area! Looks like you have train tracks on it too. Do you run trains on this setup too?
Thanks, I should run a train through it
@@TheKrowSama or just put it in there as part of the scene
These figures are great for those who don't want to do the actual work into a model kit. But then its gonna be lacking for what they are.
1. How different are these from like, Robot Damashi
2. Can you kitbash these with regular gunpla?
very different and no
@@TheKrowSama Thanks. I don't think this is my cup of tea. I think the HG is still better, but each to his own, I guess.
An opinion?....In a review?! Quite the bold idea.
Let's see how it plays out
The ms got great proportion and overall aesthetic, but the weapon n shield just look really mini, doesn't really suit it size. :(
I think I would still get the HG instead.
Gundam Ez8 can rip the Gundam Ez8's Left Arm attack Evil Gouf Custom.
Aesthetic wise. not gonna lie, by far the best looking GU line, but as a ground unit that cant kneel, kinda disappointed
9/10 not arm to fight the zeon ace.
Ahh gundam universe ALMOST there to equal the model kit articulation and when they do (I hope) I will start buying them but right now, not yet. They are improving though and good job Bandai they look good and I like the style, again just the articulation that’s the downfall right now for me.
You should still grab a few to make them want to keep making more in the future. Not like they cost a lot.
i prefer rx 79g ground gundam
no view yet and 360p only gang raise up
This is a good representation of EZ8. But still a pass due to pandemic.
Machine gun is disappointing. Even the Action Figure I bought back in highschool of 2002 had a more detailed machine gun.....
Definitely not the best. Definitely not the best in the line
Everyone has their opinion.
