A friend of mine was curious to see how I would custom paint a GUNDAM model so he bought this one for me. I figured I would make a model about it just for the heck of it!

Just a little change of pace for some other entertainment. IF you dont like it, dont watch it. Simple
JayzTwoCents you should visit r/gunpla those guys are crazy!
You know what? This is a different video and I like it a lot!
Jay, you should check out some crazy Gundam builders.
Here is an example.
th-cam.com/video/PFACw90lcII/w-d-xo.html
JayzTwoCents you should try building some more they’re ADDICTING
This...This made me fall in love with you Jay. Platonic love, but love none the less. I name all my computers after gundams.
Nice coat of surface primer, now when are you gonna finish it?
HAHAHA
😂
Ikr I'm like..its grey
Bruh
Yoooo HAHAHAH
I was excited for the end result because he said "I don't like the color scheme", but when he literally just painted it all one color is when he lost me
Don't like the color scheme.... WHAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Fr fr
Fun fact - the creator of the show Tomino Yoshiyuki originally wanted the Gundam to be a single monotone colour as well - in either all white or all grey, so that it looks more like a piece of military equipment, but the sponsors (who make the toys) rejected that idea because the sponsors intended the show to be targeted at 7 year olds and from their own sales data they know their target audience wants bright colours on their giant robots, so as a compromise Tomino asked the mechanical designer of the show to put in the blue red and yellow highlights, but still kept a lot of the machine white like the limbs, waist and head. Tomino never gave up on the monotone idea though, so in his novelisation of the show the protagonist upgrades his original Gundam (which is technically the G-2) to the G-3 varient in the later half of the story - which only has internal upgrades but externally looks the same - but spots an entirely grey paint job. So Jayz actually unknowingly re-created the G-3 Gundam.
"I don't like this color scheme, check this out instead *puts a grey blob in the table* mutch better right?"
He also removed the frikkin v fin
I love how this is a video of a man absolutely fucking up all the major steps of building Gunpla while trying to talk shit about it. The painting, build errors, and fucking up the instructions.
Gunpla is usually designed to be simple and intuitive so everyone can enjoy building them even though they're not model kit veterans. But the true beauty of the hobby comes in customization. You can buy metal parts for your kit. You can make your own custom parts. You can kitbash and create your own details. And gunpla encourages people to do just that.
The Gundam was sent for a coal digging mission and got Charred.
nice pun
The gundam weebo is here
Hiya. You called?
I've come here to laugh at you....
This man really said he used google translate for one of the most understandable instructions.
UNIVERSALLY understandable instructions
Bro he's just disrespect the rx78-2
jay this is like the verge, for gundam.....
Oof 😂😂
Dem's fightin' words...
So who's gonna tell him that he got ripped off on that gundam?
Yeah, seriously. Paying $200 for an MG Gundam? Really? That's PG prices!
@@SpexSpexington and sadly for the price he didn't paint it too wonderfully ):
I found it mildly infuriating that he cut off v fin
He said it was a gift I think he didn't actually know what it cost. 200 is more in the price range of a perfect grade so that's probably what he was thinking of
@@gundamchris1233 Bro im TRIGGERD ABOUT IT
Be carefull with those, they have a tendency to start replicating in your stash ;) . They're good fun got me into modelmaking again a few years back
Mine are definitely breeding.
@@iamaduckquack mine too. I have a Sazabi Ver. ka. waiting in my closet jojojo.
I am up to 21 in a little over a year
Mine multiplied like rabbits and I've only been doing them for a year or two. Just bought a bunch of HG's for me and the kids to build during this virus bs.
@ Mr. Loth's Modelmaking - Guilty. I had one Gundam Wing model and then I blinked and I had all of them. Weird...
I mean, I'm not going to try and act like Gunpla is ever going to be on the level of difficulty on that Yamato model, but I should correct you on a few things. The MG (Master Grade 1/100 Scale) you got is in no way worth 200 bucks. MG's are about 35 to 70. That pricepoint is more in line with PG's (Perfect grade 1/60 Scale) that have just as many runners as your Yamato with the more expensive ones also including LED kits. Yes the RG (Real Grade 1/144 Scale) kits you talked about are smaller scale with more intricate parts, but I should mention they tend to simplify the real hard parts like the inner frame and hands so they aren't as fun to build and customize like a PG is. PG is definitely worth the experience, but overall I like MG's as a good balance.
Omg it's AegisRick
You missed HG which are same scale as RG and way super simplified and are the cheapest versions, but this makes them perfect for customizing.
@AegisRick forget about that, he's just showing off
btw I love gunpla and MG is my best friend
The V is missing on the head unless he intentionally didnt put it on
Yeah he has no idea what he is talking about.
"I don't like the color scheme"
just paints the whole thing grey....
How to identify western, old school model builders : "Needs more grey"
@@joekenorer Reminds me of the GP01FB Linkin Park edition.
He said he is going to add decals on it and post it on instagram once it is finished.
Didn't the creator of Gundam itself not like the colors in the first place?
@@yokogoph I cant remember exactly but it was expected at first to be a more neutral coloring, the colorful theme was due to selling of toy-models.
On real warfare the suits would follow colours based entirely on the environment used and that would lead to very little veariety, on shows and fiction in general is a understandable compromise to choose colorful suits to add variety and even personality.
Using a suit of the same line of production but in a different colour would make you a primary target, if the show was 100% realistcic would be boring, is just realistic enough and is fine as it is.
Compares Yamato battleship to just a "master" grade gundam......no Jay.... just no.... if you were benchmarking gpus you just compared a 1660 to a 2080. Try a perfect grade gundam kit.. more in line.
and do all the extra stuff properly repainting it not just spraying the whole kit gray do the custom panel lines the panel lining the decals etc.
I mean he did say he wasnt a Gundam fan... so he had no interest in taking his time in building and painting it properly or informing himself about higher grade models before making a comparison between a higher grade tamiya kit vs a master grade gundam kit.
Maybe a high resolution model gundam
@turdy man if he just sprays a whole.perfect grade gray hes gonna piss off so many people
@@Daruuu0 I don't own one so I'm not sure but as afar as I know aren't the high resolutions actual frame is already built you just put the armor on it?
10:17 sorry but being a Gundam Builder and Collector I have to say ''We are here for a good time, not a long time"
When you said Titanfall colors I expected something a lot more interesting
Yea something more in line with the mcor variants of titans
I watched this video a year ago and at the time I thought building gunpla was time consuming but when I researched into more model kit hobbies I truly saw true horror. The amount of time it would take to build a ship model kit is insane. But personally for me the appeal of gundam model kits is that you can just snap em together and put on a shelf. No extra tools required.
Intro : this is a gun damn
Me : oh boy this is gonna be one hell of a ride
"This is so easy [...] I already broke a piece" what?? lol Gunpla is meant to be easy because they go for mass appeal. The kit you built is roughly $50 - so you could buy 6 for the price of your Yamato and make a nice diorama/scene. I agree ships are waaay more time consuming, but I wouldnt say much more difficult besides the glue. I personally like to use glue as little as possible on all kits. I actually painted my RX-78 OYW version because I didnt like the pale colors and got them closer to the bright anime colors.
Comparison at the end is a bit skewed Lol $50 Gundam vs $260 Yamato
for real and then he acts like more plastic + photo etched parts somehow makes it more difficult lmao. He should try scribing and scratch building to see what REAL difficulty is.
Yup my hirez and verka kits cost way more than 3.0 grandaddy
@@NetScourge He should try kitbashing and creating dioramas.
@@vladracus hi-res kits are way simpler tho. Jay is shitting on gunpla's complexity
My dude...try a PG gunpla
"The painting is where its at"
>Sprays it solid gray
>Couple of paint chips
@edmunds tomsons one is iconic, the other looks unfinished
Yeah, looks a little bit bare, but the original scheme does make it look exactly like a toy.
@edmunds tomsons before I start Gundams are fictional, so what type of camo is solid grey, 2 you dont need camo when your 10+ stories tall, 3 Gundams usually are colored in relation to the nation theyre from and lastly saying something is iconic then calling it dogshit makes no sense the fact that it is iconic in a positive way makes your opinion worthless. As for Jay he continued to shit talk the gundam even when he claimed hes not "trying to" , he went into it with a bias mentality so obviously his end product would look like shit.
people can make whatever the fuck they want with these and I think Jay's point was that there's no reason why people would get like 10 gundams instead of one, more expensive, but better Yamato
@edmunds tomsons if you know anything about marketing and psychology prime colors (red blue green yellow )are used heavily cause its memorable, for example like McDonald's red and yellow so "all the other nonsense" includes the iconic colors of the gundam. my final point that you seemed to gloss over many countries used those same colors for the flag and it is a show about war so why not kill your enemies in you country colors. so again your opinion is useless when there is a logical reason why those colors are used.
Disrespecting people and their hobby in a condescending way ofc people not going to like it. When you expect people not going to like, you know you are doing something wrong and disrespectful but still proceed to do it. Truly American moment
"Truly American moment"
Despite the conclusion of this video, I hope you continue to take a look at building Gundams. Or rather start looking at customizing your own Jayztwocents edition either with scratch building or kit bashing. Building gundams is one of those things that can be as difficult or as easy as you would want it to be.
Yup, you can make gunpla as difficult as you'd like. There are custom gunpla builders out there that will do days worth of work on a single limb and the end results are absolutely stunning.
Indeed. Personally, I put a few hours into a limb, I have yet to start doing much painting. But I take a lot of care to sand, smooth, and buff/shine the parts, or attempt to add some minor battle damage to others. Not looking forward to dismantling some of my kits once I have an airbrush, but I do look forward to being able to really customize my kits.
Build a Gundam themed PC... Pleeeeeeeease!!!
That would be nice.
Thatd be cool
This would be cool!
Gundam themed PC using the Blue, red and white colour scheme.
Thought at first glance this was what the video was but yes i need this to happen
Him: *Doesn't like the iconic color scheme*
Also him: *PAINTS IT IN ONE SOLID COLOR*
"Small arms fire, like .50 caliber rounds or so."
Okay, Jay, we get it. You're a giant.
.50 caliber is technically a "small arm", just barely though.
@@General_Griffin Small arms generally don't fire .50 cal though. A quick double check with Wikipedia claims that small arms end at the man-portable one-man weapons, so up to the light machinegun/squad automatic weapon. And those are at rifle caliber (.30/7.62mm) at most.
Contrary to popular belief, the Ma Deuce isn't a man-portable one-man weapon.
@@afelias Psst. Desert Eagle.
@@whiterabbit75 .50 BMG and .50 AE are worlds apart. The general context is the former, not the latter. There are weird rounds like the .50 AE, which is why I said, "Small arms generally don't fire .50 cal".
@@afelias It is technically true; the _best_ kind of true. :P
honestly tho, it's nice to hear from an outsider perspective on gundam kits. the whole snap fit thing is really their selling point. and the fact that there is no need to paint them straight out of the box, for the most part, really draw in beginners and casuals alike. even for the high difficulty kits like the perfect grade line, so long as you follow the manual carefully, you can build them straight out of the box. then its up to you to leave it like that or improve upon what was given to you.
and to quote the anime "Gunpla is freedom."
Me: Why is there a gundam video in my feed? havent been into gundam in a while
Also me: oh it jay!?!? click
Jay: This is gun-damn
Me: TIGGERED
tiggered. lol
@@AlphaMachina I'm tiggered too 😁
i'm more Eeyored.
i have 4 HGs, 1 RG and 1 knockoff PG waiting in boxes. and i only snap fit my older kits
LMFAO same
This post has me Poohed out.
As someone who’s always been afraid to try a gunpla, all I learned from this is that boat people are insane...
You're not wrong. Bote hobby is a wild world that airplane, tank, and mecha people don't touch.
I know this is 5 months late, but if you wanna try building gunpla, go for it. It's fun as hell to just build them and pose them, but because they're all snap-together it opens up for doing things with them later. I've put together several kits only to go back later and clean them up better after learning some things. And they are way easier than real world military replica kits like planes and tanks and such, I personally won't touch those because I have the hobby fears that I'll ruin them and get really frustrated.
Just grab a HG 1/144 kit for about $25 (or less in many cases) and give it a go. Those are great entry level and the newer ones are even quite detailed for the size and price, especially if you go for one from the Origin series. I really like the amount of detail they have compared to kits of the same design from the past, much more grounded. Master grades are a good step up from there, Real grades seem to be hit and miss so if you want to try those really do some research to see what others are saying about them. I've yet to throw money at perfect grade, but I'll be excited to finally do so as they look a ton of fun and from what I've gathered look pretty amazing out of the box.
Anyway, sorry for the long windedness lol.
Asian: colorful Mechs
Western: Dull colored Mechs
Yoshiyuki Tomino: Dull colored mechs
Studio Sunrise: colorful mechs
Yoshiyuki Tomino: fine 😤😤
Titanfall: Both Dull and colorful Mechs??XD
Bro. You clearly only saw a few gundams and mech.
The v fin is gone
@@gundamnmechas8518 wasnt tominos the blue & grey though?
Jay I dare you to try and build the RG (real grade) Zeta Gundam
That's just mean, asking him to put money down on that hand grenade of a kit.
@@kivulifenrir Or the original RG rx-78-2
Zeta.... or an original RX-93 V Nu Gundam.
they still got NOS of those in Japan from 1989 in the old style with diecast metal mainframe.
got one of those as a gift 2-3 years ago and it was a nightmare to work with because the plastic are so much more brittle than the new stuff.
@@brrebrresen1367 I think it's not NOS, Bandai actually does reruns of most of its old kits if you wait long enough. They don't even adjust the prices for inflation.
You don't have to do him like that
gets a first gundam, end up with a Gm
GMs are less broken and have better paint jobs.
@@afelias GMs are basically meant to be customized
You’re comparing a $50 mid range Master Grade Gundam kit to a $200 Yamato. A Perfect Grade is a much more fair comparison, Adam Savage had his mind blown by one of those.
There’s also a lot of variety in gundam Mobile suit designs than what it looks like on the surface.
Don’t like the classic white, blue, red, and yellow colors? Get a model of a suit not used by the main character
Prefer something wildly different to the classic gundam look? Some of the antagonist suits are nuts like the Sazabi, Nightingale, and The O
Prefer a more realistic utilitarian mecha and not something that looks like a toy? Get a grunt suit like the Jesta, Jegan, and Geara Doga. Even the aforementioned antagonist suits above fit the bill.
Don’t like the level of detail? Go with an MG Ver Ka. Or Perfect Grade kit. Or scratchbuild and kitbash. GBWC is a great showcase of what’s possible.
Jay, I respect you. But you seem pretty closed minded in this video.
*It'saGundam yelling in the distance*:
"It's not a toy!"
lulz was the first thing I thought of.
Lol I came down to the comments to see if anyone would mention him.
“Fluffy... no!”
Stu!
I just came from ItsaGunpla's Perfect Strike PG....
yeah pretty much I want to see a shitshow between these two.
Level of details and sizes for Gundam models go from:
HG (High Grade) 1/144
RG (Real Grade) 1/144
MG (Master Grade) 1/100
PG (Perfect Grade) 1/60
Jay you should try building a PG one next time, those typically use some metal parts as well. Maybe try a PG Gundam Unicorn, or Gundam Strike Freedom, they look quite a bit cooler than the original Gunam.
There are 1/550 which are nearly all Mobile Armors
A PG is not really hard as a kit tho if it's from bandai because everything is made to fit granted that you are following the instructions and not having a defective mold (which is really rare). The thing that can make gunpla hard is with the resin kits and especially the mechanicore/elyn/gsystem kits which is basically similar to his yamato that has photo etch, LED, a fucking ton of parts, and a really hard to understand instruction with a subpar quality fitting.
@@Kirinketsu_ get him the 1/144 dentrobium
It's still pretty damn simple... They are good for casual people, and they get a nice action doll out of it.
I feel like Jay would enjoy a more military MS, something like the MG Jesta, Sniper, Geara Doga or a Zaku Cannon.
My first build was a 1/44 Sniper II that I didn't paint at all and hardly denubbed. Definitely a good place to start especially since the gun detail is actually decent on both the beam sniper and the "SMG" style gun provided in the kit. Can't wait to actually smooth it out and paint it. Now I also have a 1/100 Tallgeese that arrived for my bday that I have to get to.
@@blindaceg Those are awesome kits, great choice.
I wish they released RG Jestas. Don't have space for MGs :(
Maybe even the Ground Type or Mk ii (Titans ver.)
You forgot Zeta Plus C1
"The detail on the gun is abysmal"
It's pretty show accurate actually

Him thinking the Gundam kit was $200 made me laugh so hard. He was way off on that one.
I wish you would have chosen 3+ colors to do, I feel like Gundams are made to have many accents. Great vid nonetheless!
Yea too plain.

At least do something like G3's colour if he wants it to be more cold.
remember,build a gunpla from your heart... -sei iori
Once Jay sees the MG Deep Striker, the MG EX-S Gundam, the PG Exia (lighting model)... yeah
putting aside the unfair comparison... love the video
Jay: they crawl in through the crotch
Me: umm...actually the chest opens up to the cockpit......oh God I've become "that guy"!
Me too! I struggle to not be an Otaku while watching this video. I know he is having fun.. but it hurts.
@@davidorridge with the first few seconds I thought "please tell me he knows that's not how it's pronounced...oh God please don't keep saying it that way"
Unless it’s the turn a gundam 🤷♂️
I think turn a is the only gundam that has a cockpit on the crotch. Bcuz that area is also a separate flight unit.
@@marksayosmejia7251 Turn A, Turn X, Bandit, SUMO, and I think there was one other suit in Gingham fleet (they got clowned on in two seconds in the show because they're the Turn A version of military LARPers) that had crotchpits.
This is like watching jay do a custom air cooled mini itx build, with a custom paint job/custom made gpu shroud/cable sleeving. Then he doesn't bother to do cable management and he installs the side-panels incorrectly. He tells us the wrong prices for parts and the wrong specs. Then he occasionally stops to talk about how this is nothing compared to Nebula/Other water cooled systems and his Nerd Cave project.
I hear you are building a Missouri model?
Now that's a video I'd like to see : >
Same
2 things;
1.) Re-check your information on the types of models before you write them off on difficulty.
2.) Why do something you didn't want to? This whole video seems like you were forced to do it.
Good lord lmao, truly the pc builder mindset on full display
The one grip I have is that he is using an old style kit to judge the build quality over the insanely progressed tech they used to make the newer kits. newer RG's, MG's, and PG's are so much more complicated than his kit. They are still "snap fit" but that is almost necessary for non-static kits (ship/plane kits dont have a ton of moving parts like gunpla since gunpla is meant to have lots of moving parts, possible transformations, and ability to do a lot of poses)
I’ve amassed about 350 gundam kits, all the real grade, perfect grade and most of the master grade. I think you’d really enjoy the challenge of the perfect grade, and you can get photo etch parts as well as metal components to really detail them up as well. The parts are not as fiddly as the yamato, but there are an awful lot of them! I got into it just because I remembered all the cartoons from my youth...and I needed a hobby!
The V-fin 😭😭😭 well I still apprciate the effort. I wish i could paint my kits.
Man, despite the very explicit title, i thought actually he was about to build a Gundam theme based custom water-cooled PC lol
I absolutely love building kits of all types and to see you do something along those lines on this channel. Well it’s a wonderful change of pace, especially now during this outbreak. Keep it up man and don’t let these biased TH-cam algorithms get the best of you. Peace and much love.
Out of touch old man compares a $35 kit thats designed to be easy to build and show accurate to a hundreds of dollar battle ship model thats designed for real life accuracy.
You didnt paint it. You murdered it hahaha. I totally undestand the intention though.
I very much enjoy watching you build things. Wouldn't mind seeing more of this.
I just wanted to say you’re weathering and damage techniques are fantastic. I can tell that you have experience building models and that Japanese anime Gundam toys are not your thing and I completely respect that.
Gunpla is freedom and I feel like your interpretations are neat, I will certainly re-watch this video to pick up on your weathering techniques cause they’re good.
Jay is doing Gunpla now??? Oh shit, more content that I specifically am extremely interested in
Oh my, iam truly surprised at how many gunpla fans are here.
the beauty of gundam kits is that they're easy! and that the kits can be played with! It's really wonderful to see their interstices in the builds to allow for articulation, opening hatches ETC, It's a very excellent starting point and has a very high ceiling for skill. doing the ship building you are im not at all surprised to hear that it doesn't quite scratch that itch, you did an excellent job painting the Gundam and i really do look forward to the Yamatto! i hope to see you do more! get fun with them!
As someone who has built well over 200 gundam models, it is cool to see the hobby get highlighted in this way, but you really are just getting to the tip of the ice berg as far as customization and things you can do. Metal etch parts are out there as are resin kits, line scribing, scratch building, dioramas, etc... there is a huge level of progression that comes after the out of box build, if you decide to go that route. Just wanted to highlight a few things that might pique your interest, in case you felt like you wanted to revisit it!
Yes Jay has finally entered to world of Japan!
Still hoping they port does Gundam game titles or made a polished game on PC ;-;
Still hoping they port does Gundam game titles or made a polished game on PC ;-;
yea but doesnt like the original stuff im thinking we need to get him into azur lane since he likes world of warships so much
I've been watching since he had the Nissan 350z
If you can say that. Based on the end product and his attitude, he is not a fan. I would be surprised if he ever did another one. I was left disappointed by the video when I know Jay has a lot of talent and could have really done a lot better.
You turn it into an RX-78-3!
You can decorate a build with it standing on the graphics card!
lmfao I cant believe he actually did turn it into a G-3
I really like Gundams a lot so I want to apologise for me being triggered beforehand for the way you pronounce Gundam and second that you called anime a cartoon and lastly technically Transformers came after Gundam so one could argue that Transformers are based on Gundams and like other people have said I would love to see you make a PG 1/60 scale and make a complete custom ones where you can just Google Custom Gunpla and see how crazy they can get but granted they are not as difficult as the ships you build. Now that my child tantrum is over it's great to see you doing something different and this was also entertaining
Hell yes, I love the MG rx-78-2 ver. Home Depot floor colors
Watching at the start.. Cool Jay, I highly recommend gundam kits for model hobbyists. First point: I don't care about the anime, and you don't need to care to enjoy these. They have genius design and range from stupid easy $12 high grade to $250 monster project Perfect Grade. They're like fun puzzles or lego sets that leave you with an art piece when you're done. You've got a noteably easy (and a bit loose) Master Grade that's $42 on Amazon right now (your link doesn't work for me btw). I'm not big on painting, but I put a lot of care into cleaning nubs off and getting the stickers right. Some people who paint also completely change the anime colors to military metal schemes. Nothing sacrilegious about it and it looks badass.
Mid way... no harm, some kits come out solid as a rock, some kits explode it your hands. Reviews cover which is which pretty well. The solid connections do NOT come back apart unless you angle cut the pegs first. No one ever claimed master grade is a hard kit. Grade means quality not difficulty. Master Grade translates to "fairly detailed kit with some gimmicks".
End... I don't normally get annoyed when people talk crap about Gundams, especially when they do hard models. To each their own,.... but you complain about all Gundams just because the $40 kit doesn't stack up against your $250 kit... No sh!t. Dude, do like 5 seconds of research on things before you post about it. You know you have this problem.
There are so many different models and color schemes you can get and paint however you want, who cares if you don't like the colors on that particular kit..... Anyway, I like metallic color schemes and the wearing looks great, but you left him looking so monochromatic like he skipped paint day at the factory. Tip: Put glue on the loose joint to thicken it, let dry and then reattach it to make it stay without losing mobility.
I'm glad you had fun Jay and I hope you don't write them off. You did a good professional job putting him together too, which I didn't expect.
I'm sure a Perfect Grade MS-06F Zaku II with it's more German military style and green color scheme for $125 would be a much better choice for Jay. Though it's a bit older so it's got a loose bit here and there too. Astray Red Frame 1/60 Perfect Grade is a very new kit praised for being solid, but I know Jay won't like how it looks.
Don't forget the $300+ monster Dendrobium and Neo Zeong HGs
PG range from $50-$1,000 or well now used up to $1,500
If you look at the gap on the legs, he didn't fully push it in. I think watching maybe some of the more recent anime gives a better feel for how these "mobile suits" work and probably help with the painting bit. Would really hope to see him get maybe a more modern kit take a look at the details and functionality they built into these models.
Yeah, i didn't like how he complains about $40 vs $250 kit. Unsubscribed...
@@Mc-je4yb One bad move and you immediately unsubscribe despite the rest of his content being golden? People these days... incredible!
Got confused for a second, thought this was one of my other subs
Tbh, Gundam models are kinda easy by design so that they're easy to get into. And before you know it, you have a collection...
Also, if you can photo-etch sets for certain kits, so you might want to look for those when you get your next Gundam.
Nice build. For real though I'd love to see occasional updates on the Yamato. Especially videos for the more difficult parts and little tips. I did a bit of model building as a kid and would love to get back into it. Thanks for sharing your talents and hobbies, that kind of stuff is what made TH-cam great.
The perfect crossover would be a perfect grade space battleship yamato for JAy.
Jay Calls Gundam Cartoon...
Anime Fans: Its not Cartoon REEEEEEEEEEEE....
"This is a gun dam" haha I love this channel; it has improved so much over the years. The humor and randomness... Don't ever change for anyone Jay.
Now I wanna see Jay do car models or a boat build too! But yeah, totally get how different building Gunpla is coming from scale models, just as different as coming from Gundam to 1:24 car model kits!
that actual model, although pushes the boundaries with regards to Bandai engineering, is a plastic hand grenade. i would recommend the RG Nu Gundam..
I want to see a Perfect Grade Full Armor Unicorn. You might even go watch the OVAs for Unicorn. Great series.
Good kit, but I'm sure it's not his visual style preference or type of show.
@@Freedbot you never know, people surprise you sometimes.
Great video man, I saw several pictures of those boats on your instagram they look dope. Great custom paint job. Greetings from Argentina.
i didn't realize how much i just enjoyed watching jay until he makes a video that doesn't have pc info that i wanted :)
Well that was the OG gundam one of the simplest model hehe tho I wish i can paint things like that
Someone needs to send him a deepstriker
That one is really big too
You could try Perfect Grade, especially GP-03 or Unicorn. That might be fun to watch.

Is there PG GP-03?
Perfect grade would be much better.. ofc it doesnt have dirt on Tamiya's battleship siries (like if there anything more challenging then that?)..
but it does give a bit more challenge then MG
@@jeffzero01 Yup in the 0083 series.
@@jeffzero01 Oh you're right, there's only high grade, for Dendrobrium anyway. That's disappointing, though Perfect Grade would be huge...
Whoever told you Gundams are hard doesn’t know what they’re talking about, gunpla are super easy to build as far as model kits go- if you can snap stuff together and follow instructions they’re basically just like legos
You'd be surprised how many people suck at following manuals. My ex took a couple days to build an hg and she fitted some parts wrong. Broke a few parts too
GeoffAznable it’s crazy, I’ve found as long as you can follow the usually pretty straightforward picture instructions you can’t go wrong with building gunpla- but I also grew up building legos and stuff my whole childhood so that could have helped a little
@@YouSeeGundam yeah i feel ya, i mainly just snap up and clean up my kits as is, because i prefer collecting more than customising, but its shocking how bad some people can be at following instructions
It's a nice change of pace and would be glad to see more model making videos. I use to do a lot of Tamiya military models myself until I got into these. Easy enough to get to if you just build right out the box. but you can the opposite direction and add photo etch parts, metal detail parts, LEDs, scratch building, resin parts. It's that level of choice and freedom I enjoy. I can build something simple over a weekend or go all out on a week that dwarfs the Yamato in parts. Also note some of these do come with ABS and polystyrene should you decide to do another one.
"i think this thing is 200 bucks" man that things 50...
To be fair they're all toys...
I'm not talking shit either, I'm into warhammer and bust-painting myself.
Yea it's a toys, but not for kids
Laurent Vic yeah, and it's great! 😁
Actually, they're called figures /s
Try Real Grade Sazabi Jay, I had a lot of fun making it and I'd like to see your customization towards the kit.
I finished putting this exact model together last week...but I need to pull it apart again for painting (although I will be going with the standard colours but hopefully more realistic)
You don't need to google translate the instructions they are so easy to read that even a monkey to put it together
“I’m not talking sh*t of gundam” proceed to talk sh*t of gundam
I want to know how you do your weathering
Kindly do more of this please. Its two of my favorite. Jay and Gundam.
1:30 That laugh in the background at the pronunciation.
A perfect vid to watch now we're in the endgame
I absolutely love your DIY/model/car tinkering videos, it inspires my own crafty hobbies.
For someone who is interested in getting into model building, what kits/level do you suggest someone should start with? I know I'm a bit late, but a video on different types/levels of kits would be pretty neat.
The "it's a toy" commentary is a little disappointing. Your model boat is a toy. Your computer is a toy. It's lazy discourse
Facts and the way he chucked runners I was about to chuck him
He's just an aging, increasingly irrelevant boomer living the shadow of LTT, let him have his old man moment.
I'd like to see the USS Missouri :>
I see a Gundam I press like!
This is the first time I've seen someone painted a Gundam with glued parts already 😅😅😅
Hi Jay! Good first build. This is actually one of the smallest of the MG kits, the larger (# of pieces) ones can have up to twice the piece count. This is also designed after the original series from 1979 so the details aren't really there. Better kits like the Sazabi are extremely well detailed, and really show true potential in the hands of creative modders which fully paint and modify or add pieces. There's many aftermarket parts available like metal jets, boosters etc that give a much larger appreciation to building. I've been building for most of my life (started at about 8, now 27) and mostly build MG and PG kits, that on average take about a month for a fully painted MG and up to 6 months for a PG with many custom lines, each piece painted individually etc. I'd love to see you do a very detailed full paint on a proper MG kit. If you have time you should look at what Mechanicore is doing as they're taking Bandai models to the next level with 2200 piece 1/120 scale models!
"I don't wanna poo poo on these kits" then he said that they're TOYS wahahahahhahaha #trigger
Funny how people compare things: 'things you like vs things you never explored with' 🚮
Really liked this makes me want to get into doing this while on state quarantine stay at home order!
Of all the gundam models im glad you built this one at least lmao
try the full armored gundam unicorn on perfect grade kit and lets have a talk :)
It's still easier than real models, dolls like that are nice for entry level builders.
@@brajuhani ofc, it is.. but for entry level builder thats quite a challange
Lol he removed the V fin lmaoooo. So many people gonna be triggered
Honestly, I laughed a little. I love gunpla, but I've never been the biggest fan of the v fin as a design choice. I completely understand why; to hearken back to samurai armor and then it's just a staple for the hero suits. But even still, my favorite designs are the grounded, military looking designs from UC. I think that's why Zeon suits are so popular, they've got a grittier design language with the tubes and vents and the bulkier limbs.
the hobby is a mixed bag of snapfitters, painters, kitbashers and scratch builders.
When he glued it together and re painted it I know you can do what you want but it practically snaps together
