    Bandai, I think it's about time we get an MG kit of this.

    I always loved the principality of zeon suits because they always gave a me a WWII German troop vibe. This guy is a really good example of that.

      Well, Zeon itself is inspired by Nazi Germany so it makes perfect sense haha

  • @ProffessorDESU

    The beam rifle looks like a Sturmgewehr and the launcher looks like a Panzerfaust. They really wanted to give it that SS feel lmao.

      The stick grenades were also based off real grenades used by the Germans during WW2.

      And the cuffs, and the Stahlhelm (helmet), and the insignia on the chest, and the black-green color tone. Very A E S T H E T I C.

    If anyones wondering, the front skirt can be seperated rather easily. Just take care with a hobby knife or scribe tool and it easily snaps in half.

      those shoulders are a bit much for me, not so much into the decorative look. I like the more realistic look of this one personally.

    the Geara Zulu's machine gun is based on the German StG-44 which was the first ever assault rifle. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/StG_44

    If I were to make a modification to this kit, I would put some spikes on the shoulder pad ... or buy the Guards Type variant.

  • @cissuperdroid
    @cissuperdroid 7 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    So how bad are the "Sleeves" markings, and the white circles on the ankles to apply? I've really wanted a Zulu variant with the intention of having the appropriate markings, but I'm not sure how much of a hassle it is to apply them.
    To my knowledge, the markings are molded onto the kit correctly, so the stickers should be cut to fit them perfectly, yes? I hate "eyeballing" sticker placement...

    I'm building the Doven wolf UC ver. currently and despite I'm not a zeon fan, I really love the build and colors of the kit. The build is a bit more involve and feel refreshing, unlike the IBO and Revive line...those kits just feel very repetitive because the construction are pretty much the same. I really missed those older HGUC kits.

    • @ZakuAurelius

    Notch a piece of runner rod, glue to the base of the grip then sand flush is probably gonna be easier and come out nice and flush for extending the grip and should be pretty strong.

    Are the white stickers around the wrist and chest raised or recessed? I might get this kit and rather paint than use the stickers.

      the detail is raised there, so it would be easy to paint using a reverse-wash technique.

      You forgot the Hi-zack which will probably fit somewhere between the 2 and the 3. I would also add the Gouf, Gelgoog and Geara Doga in there. The Dom would proably be a side-upgrade from the Zaku 2.

I have the kit personally and watched you're other gouf videos and man, it is one hell of a Gouf. I'm just genuinely excited if youbdo plan to review it.
