I just bought this kit a couple days ago and I just watched your video. Great review! Also, I just got home from grocery shopping and was listening to Lakey Inspired. How strange you have his music in this video. All kinds of coincidences! I subscribed and I look forward to your future builds. God bless!
This was a great review! You hit all of the points I was curious about and demonstrated the kit excellently. I was digging the kit from the box art, and then the cape came our and just dazzled me! Thanks for the effort! Looking forward to the next one.
Every time you mentioned the colour separation, I kept thinking back on my experience with Gunpla from 1981 to 1997. BIG difference in that subject. I'd love to see you review one of those old kits, such as one of the old F-91 Silhouette kits or perhaps the original Dejih kit.
I agree about the painting. Would look great with just a touch of weathering to tone down the white with some dry brushing on the edges. A little detailing work on the weapons etc too. Awesome kit though. Cloak looks great too. Good shadow effects when it is turning.
Yes, Crossbones is my FAVORITE! I just got and assembled the Crossbones MG Gundam X-1 Fully Clothed and it's my 1st model and it won't be my last. Thank's again for another awesome video!
Nice review. And The size of the kit is actually relating to canon as to that point in the U.C timeline mobile suits grew out to even even smaller. From the Gundam F91 time and forward even till Gundam Victory if I remember correctly
Also, this kit comes with the RG Unicorn styled closes fists. I believe it’s the same for the RG Nu as well. Glad to see Bandai improved the fists permanently.
Meli, you should try the RG Zaku II. I've been giving the metal some weld lines (by wiping silver acrylic over the plates), which gives it sort of a rose metallic appearance. I'm then going in to replace the eye with the same custom technique I came up with an HG that had the cycle-tic lens. It involves a foil sticker scrap, markers, E6000, and the lens of a tiny google eye.
BNuts- hmm, that is odd, the legs on mine are tight as a drum. You might want to check the instructions and see if you did everything correctly whilst building the legs and connecting them to the waist section.
To make this superior: add the Peacock Smasher and Masamune. Wonder if the ones from the HG kits would fit into this one's hands. Usually you can't use an HG's weapons with an RG, though.
most reviewer never show the inside box pictures from that rg, nice!!! sometimes im badly curious about the pictures inside the box. like the older rg's on one side it features the hg and sd version of the kit, if not the closes one for that rg kit. then on the other side is ms and pg version. good job
Really like this review!! You should try the other amazing real grades like the unicorn and the sazabi cause they’re pretty good!! I should get you another real grade for when I get you a package again!! :) 💕
I just compelted the regualr crossbone gundam (with no cloak) and the skull heart steel 7 crossbone. the Gunda builder one, that, AFAIK, is exactly the same as the one from the manga. Do you know if there is a hg version that is not from GB?
Over all nice review true the kit is to white it need a bit of grey... On the core booster isn't a missle that is a beam saber... Crossbone gundam are based on space pirate... And if i not mistaken the sword can be combine with other weapon... And the chain grabber isnt connect on the torso it on the front skirts...
I don’t typically build RG, the idea of a preassembled inner frame just sort of turns me off. But I was drooling over this kit yesterday in spite of myself. Will definitely get it when I can spare the cash. 😁👍
I built the fullcloth ver. (the superior ver. OF 😁) and the only thing that I really don't like is how small it is. The crossbone needs to be bigger. Other than that the RG is an amazing show of the engineering at Bandai.
The kit looks good but given the size comparison, it does seem to be a bit smaller than usual. The additional features or "little details" feels like a great touch tho. Great review btw. Kudos.
I won’t forget to describe!
I need to learn how to speak English 🤦🏻♀️
Earth Federation bourgeoisie:"We correct grammmmmatical and vocabulary mistakes since UC0068" DISGUSTING!
@@overlord606 Mmmmm.
Good thing I watched this review first before buying the kit, earlier.
I’m currently building it now; thanks for this Gunpla meli😎
The quality of the vids are getting better and better! Keep it up Meli! :)
Awesome, in depth review! I must confess, I like the white and if you did some weathering I bet it would really pop! Thanks for sharing Meli!👍👍👍👍
Great looking kit and a good detailed review - thanks - will be picking this one up for sure

Awesome video again like always! I need to get my hands on this kit soon after finishing some of my backlog
I really like the fact that this kit has no pre assembled parts and that you have to build the inner frame from scratch

Ah, memories of F91 gunpla.
We need more revives of those old kits
yes hes awesome, impressed with him. will be adding him to my list of kits to get. thank you for the review on him. :)
Amazing work!!!! Hmmm I wish crossbone gundam would be turned into an anime. The gundam look so amazing
I really like the orange accents on this dude! Also, edgy cape for the win!
Great job in the review Meli! Can’t wait to see what’s next!
You DEFINITELY need to build the RG Sazabi! The other end of the RG size spectrum, by SO awesome a kit!
I agree about the painting. Would look great with just a touch of weathering to tone down the white with some dry brushing on the edges. A little detailing work on the weapons etc too. Awesome kit though. Cloak looks great too. Good shadow effects when it is turning.
I agree that the cape sold me on buy this RG crossbones. I need this model. 🤘👍
Thanks for this review, ended up getting it.. not a real grade fan but this kit looks so fun
love your videos. i enjoy the honesty you bring, thank you for sharing!
lovely kit. i just completed one and was surprised at the size but its really intricate.
Yes, Crossbones is my FAVORITE! I just got and assembled the Crossbones MG Gundam X-1 Fully Clothed and it's my 1st model and it won't be my last. Thank's again for another awesome video!
The full cloth mg is a great looking kit, for me it became a plastic grenade after a few months though.
good call on the detail downside. The RG gray separation is very important.
12:06 I found it really cute you holster the pistol point forward ;)
Great review! 👍👍👍 Its time for me to buy one and put it on my collection 😁 thanks Gunpla Meli
This RG looks really cool. Another one to the buy list!!!!
The sticker sheet looks really good, for a change..
The kit itself is excellent.
Nice review. And The size of the kit is actually relating to canon as to that point in the U.C timeline mobile suits grew out to even even smaller. From the Gundam F91 time and forward even till Gundam Victory if I remember correctly
Thanks for the review, I’m looking forward to buy this model for me 🤩
Keep it up Gunpla Meli, Because of you my daughter Has been so inspire to Build harder Gundams. Thank you!
I have a tip that might help with sticker that set on a rounded part. Use hair dryer on it until it somewhat flexible.
Also, this kit comes with the RG Unicorn styled closes fists. I believe it’s the same for the RG Nu as well. Glad to see Bandai improved the fists permanently.
Great content! Wow your channel has come a long way! Keep up the good work!
Thank you!!
For details I suggest pour/fill marker. Gets in to areas and cracks you cant draw in.
your like the little mermaid of the gunpla community.. with the "thingamabob"..
love the review!

I got one . Its small but very very well detailed and cool gimmicks. It took me 10 hrs to build such small
if you can, check the inner frame because sometimes it is though to move or is pasted to see if the protector of the feet really don't move
Nice review. What lighting do you use to do these reviews? I have a hard time focusing close and getting the right lighting when reviewing kits.
Hell yeah for Crossbone, the beam zanba weapon is my favorite beam saber of all time.
You should also build the RG Sazabi and RG Unicorn(i prefer the full armor one)those kits are awesome
yeah...full armor unicorn is pretty awesome build..
I have them, I haven't built them yet. I want to build my MG GM Sniper II first.
BNuts- I’m currently building the MG GM Sniper II White Dingo version and it’s a fantastic kit, so you’re going to have a lot of fun with the build.
@@Cagliostro81 For some reason the legs are really loose on mine. Did I put it together right?
BNuts- hmm, that is odd, the legs on mine are tight as a drum. You might want to check the instructions and see if you did everything correctly whilst building the legs and connecting them to the waist section.

I’m building this right now and its sooooooo addicting lol the rg is amazing
This one looks cool, thanks for the review I might get it know.
Dayumm they bounce so nicely 😍👍
Awesome review! Keep it up!

Love your gunpla Kit's on display! I only have 3 atm 😎😎♥️♥️
Awesome kit! Thank you for reviewing. I like the RG scale. Can you review the RG Nu Gundam? Keep up the good work and be safe!
my next RG! thanks for the review meli!
Good choice! I deff recommend this kit 👍🏻
Always love your reviews :)
ordered mine today! and used your code! ty!!!
Awesome channel and info. Where is the best place to purchase these kits as a beginner in the hobby?
I just compelted the regualr crossbone gundam (with no cloak) and the skull heart steel 7 crossbone. the Gunda builder one, that, AFAIK, is exactly the same as the one from the manga. Do you know if there is a hg version that is not from GB?
This is one of my favorite kit so far too.
Bought myself the 1/100 metal build crossbone X3 its all black and purple with a cool cloak.
Gonna have to get me one of these and do a comparison with the HG version.
Good review. Keep up the good work
RGs are the best detail but are very fragile! My Zaku II tube on leg is a spring and that broke at the joint. Amazing detail and range of motion!
definitely one of my favourite build
Oh, you’ve been my introduction to Gundam, keep up the good work.
Looks like a good kit . It would weather well with that pirate theme.
Great video and info I subscribed 🙂
nice review, but you forgot to mention that the sword and the pistol can combine to make the Zanbuster rifle.
rg exia and zgok aswell as well as the zaku are awesome builds
The kit looks so good!
I plan to someday get all the RG kits, they are just so nice.
It's so nice. Thank you meli. 😍😍😍
Building this one right now. Every review mentions the ankle blades being too loose so I doubt it was anything you built wrong.
Over all nice review true the kit is to white it need a bit of grey...
On the core booster isn't a missle that is a beam saber... Crossbone gundam are based on space pirate... And if i not mistaken the sword can be combine with other weapon... And the chain grabber isnt connect on the torso it on the front skirts...
I actually trimmed the crest right down to the yellow and placed it directly above the vent as it was placed in the manga
Which scale kit do you prefer? I have bigger fingers and have found 1/144 too hard just because the parts are so small.
really cool gunpla kit but you look awesome as always too meli ;)
the rg1 y very cool... and you are lovelly as always.
I finished the MG X Bone not too long ago, will skip on the RG. The MG was already quite good and bigger of course.
Planning to buy this kit, thanks for the review 😍
Hey Meli! Keep the awesome work, you're doing great!
Thank you meli, I get back to build my gundams again. Its been a year since my boxes are collecting dust😁
Everyone goes through a little break every now and then ☺️
@@Gunplameli Haha yeah i know, but im worried I might not get back on what Im enjoying before. but thank you again🤗
Definitely cool. Try the Gundam Astray Redframe RG. Beautifully built model. Worth a review.
If you open up the chest piece , you can see the cockpit in there looks cool
Gonna get this but will only build it when I also get its waterslide decals because those stickers (specifically the chest) are horrendous
My other gripe about this kit was the fact that the V fin on the forehead attaches to a peg on the head instead of having a peg on itself
Needed this just bought one last night
you tried to heat with hairgun? to expand the sticker of the chest and adapt to the piece
awesome great review!!
You should build the RG Sazabi. That will blow your mind.
Loving your videos! Keep them coming.
Thanks! Maybe I’ll look into getting him
Next
This is by far the coolest action figure I've seen!! My god!
Nice video as always 😊 (my wife has those punch clips you're wearing.)
Good review , i like it.
Hmm.... i wonder if you can modify the cloth to look sharper by filing it down a bit. Great review tho!👌
So that was the size of a RG sazabi. Looks cool
I think Sandrock is getting a new kit in October. I still like the Talgeese EW Master Grade.
I don’t typically build RG, the idea of a preassembled inner frame just sort of turns me off. But I was drooling over this kit yesterday in spite of myself. Will definitely get it when I can spare the cash.
😁👍
Bandai has pretty much abandoned the preassembled frame at this point. They learned a powerful lesson because of the RG Sinanju flop.
BNuts Well that’s the best possible news. 😁
You never picked up the RG Rx78 2 I am building it now and it's amazing first RG
Well done!
I built the fullcloth ver. (the superior ver. OF 😁) and the only thing that I really don't like is how small it is. The crossbone needs to be bigger. Other than that the RG is an amazing show of the engineering at Bandai.
If you’re looking to build more RG kits I cannot recommend enough the RG Gundam MKII and Aile Strike!
Damnnnn you should really try the RG unicorn or sazabi though, those 2 are godly
The kit looks good but given the size comparison, it does seem to be a bit smaller than usual. The additional features or "little details" feels like a great touch tho.
Great review btw. Kudos.
Thank you!
That looks good!
Hell yeah love the video... Thank you
