Fun fact: From its position and actual design concepts, the Turn A's cockpit is actually supposed to be the womb rather than the male genitals, especially considering the fact that the cockpit could be accessed from below. So the Turn A is, surprisingly enough, not the Turn X's brother, but the Turn X's sister.
Yeah, I agree. I went into the series not liking the design at all. But it really grows on you over time and its become one of my favorite designs for its uniqueness.
Turn A is definitely my favorite series, has my favorite designs and I'm always hoping for new or remastered kits. just imagine a real grade Turn A or X, the level of detail in it.
@@Kazrel i built that kit this year and it is my absolute favorite kit ever!! Very unique next to the standard MG of today and years ago I highly recommend trying this kit out
An advice given to me by a local model kit group (from long ago) was to simply call it: Rough and Fine and identify it straight by the Grit as to avoid confusion and to help others as well. Say for example if someone ask you how you achieved this texture one should not reply "I used a fine grit sandpaper" on the comments but instead say something like "I used a 1500grit sandpaper". Here's another tip that might be useful to anyone: If the sandpaper you bought has a letter "P" in it to identify the grit it means that this sandpaper is a hardware graded one; This is much rougher than the ones with no P in it. 3M sandpapers usually are the ones that grade sandpapers with no P but they are by no means the best they are still used for hardware not hobby but this might help you identify if you want something with more finer finish but you don't have access to hobby grade sandpapers. But if it really needs to be identified as high or low, you can simply say High Grit for sandpapers 1000grit and up and Low Grit for 800grits and lower.
13:00 the secondary bend is for Turn A to pose as if it was going up, the Turn A has a different way to maneuver and that goes to the lifting itself up to the sky.
I saw this video two years ago and wanted one for myself ever since. After two ****ing years, it's finally back in stock again and I finally got one. Can't wait to build and paint it!
@@Zach_Walker Yep, MG Turn A has a cow included. Hope if they release a PG on it, not only it has a cow included, but also, some laundries too and a clothesline 😁
People hate on the Turn A, but it is very unique and isn't just a retread of the F91 Gundam like practically every other Gundam. It also looks really good. I wouldn't mind a different head, but it still looks really cool.
Turn A Gundam is really awesome ! I love how the animation quality is really great; there's little "re-used" battle animations. The characters are amazing, a lot of growth etc. Yea .. just finish watching the thing. Also this Gundam is the most powerful to have ever existed - you`ll know why when you get to the end :-)
On the 7th day of Christmas, the Gundam gave to me 7 Psycho Frames 6 Beam Sabers 5 SHUFFLE CRESTS 4 stolen suits 3 mobile Armors 2 GN Drives And a newtype who shouldn't be
I love the Turn-A design so much, especially after watching the series. Definitely a top design for me. Something that might help out for that head icon (or details like it) you can always pout a q-tip into some thinner and wipe off the excess that way so you don't have to worry about scuffing the plastic at all.
Turn A Gundam is my favorite Gundam series and I think it has some of the best designs for Mobile Suits and characters and has one of the best stories. So thank you for reviewing this kit.
I love the aesthetic of the bladed leg back sections. Form follows function and turn A seems to follow that principle more so than perhaps any other MS. Syd mead being an industrial designer brought that practicality to the design.
Turn A is the greatest Gundam TV series, and maybe the best TV anime ever made. I hope we'll get more kits from the series in the future, an RG Turn-A Gundam would be incredible!
2000grit sandpaper is High Grit. As opposed to, say 80grit, being Low Grit. Less grit = more abrasive. If there was a 1grit it would be a single rough rock glued to a paper lol
Honestly to me its kind of weird looking Gundam at first but I really like the series, but when I got to hold the model in my hands I totally loved it, there is a certain charms to it that even it doesn’t look like a Gundam you know it is a Gundam.
High grit/Low grit: it refers to how thin the grains on a sanding paper are. The highest the number is, the amount of grains is, and the more grains there is on the same area of sanding paper, the smaller that are, and by consequence, the finer the sandpaper is. If you want to know how fine a sandpaper is without having the numbers, feel the sand paper. The softer it feels, the finer the grain is. The better grains I'd recommend is 3000.
I have the MG of this design. I picked it up because this is one of the most unique Gundam designs and I liked it a lot. Looks like the HG is pretty good too. Although, the MG's shoulder pads don't get blocked by the rear sections nearly as much so it can raise its arms forwards better. I should dig it out of storage and put it back on display...
As far as I can recall, the limited posability is fairly darn accurate to the show. I need to rewatch that sometime, it's arguably the best. (It's my personal favourite at least)
Looking forward to see you review more Digimon like Black Wargreymon who is already out and Imperialdramon how comes out in January. Don't forget Mugendramon in March
MG Cow with Turn A Gundam coming soon. Maybe also check out the Turn X or the Turn A vs Turn X set, and maybe the Moonlight Butterfly expansion to go with it.
there is a P-Bandai version of the Turn-A from one of the Build Divers series that has a more Gundam-y design, mostly in the face. I think it’s the Turn-A Shin
The only thing I dislike about this design is the face. The "moustache" is fine, just the face looks kinda dumb. I think the Shin Turn-A fixes it without sacrificing the unique design.
Wait, no cow? You know how handy having a cow in the chest of a mobile suit is? Very! Atmospheric re-entry? Guess who's havin' steaks to celebrate a good landing? Direct hit from a beam rifle? Well, you'll have plenty of burgers to munch while doing repairs. Close call nuclear detonation? When you find how much delicious jerky is now in the chest of your gundam, suddenly acute radiation sickness doesn't seem so terrible ;-)
I have this kit and the only issues I've had with it is the mustache falling off and a limp wrist. Aside from that, it's a fairly solid kit and I agree with the ranking.
@@coldercoronet6248 Weird thing is I have done this several times before the Moustache vanished into the Lost Parts Dimension where tiny gunpla parts and Lego Pieces go. Sometimes kits come out of the mold a little funny, or a little more flimsy, or have looser joint tolerances than you expect. I'm just chalking it up to the peg being a little smaller than it's supposed to be.
@@ciernselar6549 I’m sort of confused. I just finished the hg turn A and the chin part that the mustache goes on is super deep. It takes a lot of force to take the moustache off.
@@coldercoronet6248 IDK what to say but I guess I got one where it wasnt as deep as it was on yours. Maybe it was some factory defect but whatever the case the moustache on Mine fell off and got lost.
Got the MG Turn A earlier this year and I have to say, it's a good kit, the badpart is that its hands ar starting to lose there grip on the rifles handle, but other than that it's no doubt a good kit. Also the addition of the cow wasn't bad either.

Turn A is the most roundest, one of the most unique Gundam I've laid eyes on!
Turn A is one of my favorite shows. It's so good!
I hope when they do the RG they include those butterfly wings as effect parts as that would look sick
Knowing them, they would probably make that an "optional effect set", sell it on premium bandai and also have no quantity limit
Best video commercial .... really imaginative, well done
