youre so lucky to have an epyon 1-100 cause its so rare right now but i hope bandai would make an mg of it ,it would rock! :) great review and great paintjob :D
This kit looks nicer that I expected! Whitefangs later added a head Vulcan on Epyon. So this is going to be a Epyon before before being the Whitefang`s Mobile Suit.
your painted kits always look so awesome personally they look so much better then those featured in Hobby Japan magazine. did you get SS Goku figurerise?
@00rebornz Funny thing is that Gundam Wing was not my first Gundam anime and that effects how I see it. When I finally saw it I thought it was nothing special. Expesially when most characters were just there to pilot mobile suits and that was also case with main character. I feel that they didn't have enough character and were 2 dimensional. Then again, I started off with best Gundam anime ever, Zeta Gundam.
@swivelchair1 yes, but darker shades of each color, like how wing has a navy blue, bright vivid colors would look a little out of place here if you ask me.
@vegeta8259 My bad, I mean: Which gundam Model kit from the Gundam Wing Series would you suggest? I mean all of your videos make them look interesting but I can't choose between tallgeese, Wing zero, or Epyon...
@strikeslifer 1/144 is around half the size of the 1/100. Although the 1/144 is smaller and easier to put together, the 1/100 has size, detail and articulation that the 1/144 can't hope to match.
Ironic. Trieze had the Epyon built for his warfare ideals of noble hand to hand combat, yet the mobile suit he pilots Tallgeese II had the giant dober gun on the right arm.
what paint did you use to paint the burgundy parts? i've been looking everywhere for the right colour and i can't get hold of it, apart from some crap paint i bought that flaked off
Hey vegeta8259, i got a question thats totally off topic, from the Epyon. Is there any pack like the strike alie pack or sword impulse pack, that can fit on to 1/100 Astray red frame NG ? with out modification ?
@miscriant I would love to get a PG or MG of it, pitty bandai are bastards -shakes fist- As much as I loved the Astray Red I am still distressed that they can make a PG of a manga gundam and not manage to create a MG of one of the two main gundams from wing.
i dont feel like buying the expensive kits how would say the Gundam Wing - Wing Gundam 0 1/144 Scale Model Kit WF-09 is compared to the others out today. plus is this kit any good in your opinion since it is only 9 dollars please reply.
dude that Epyon looks gorgeous dude!
Always wanted this set. And that is an amazing paintjob. Makes it look MG level in detail.

Your Epyon looks so beautifully well done for such an old kit! ^_^ Very nice
I am so freaking excited for the MG of this. I'm thinking of painting it and adding a gloss clear coat. June cant come soon enough.
They say it has no vulcans but in the last episode of the show the Epyon does fire a couple of bursts from off screen in the fight with Wing Zero.
Your paint skills are really good!
ITS MAROON
and the paint job is amazing
like no joke
excellent paint job! um what did u use to to seal the paint?
Great review,
but did you have to paint it much and are the wings all one piece?
your painted kits always look so awesome personally they look so much better then those featured in Hobby Japan magazine. did you get SS Goku figurerise?
Great review and paint job. I can't wait till HLJ gets the Epyon back in stock this month.

Great review, and great paint job, vegeta!
But just imagine how awesome this guy would be as a MG... :D
@swivelchair1 yes, but darker shades of each color, like how wing has a navy blue, bright vivid colors would look a little out of place here if you ask me.
This model has alot of panel lines, not bad considering it's age and that it's an HG. I cannot wait for the new MG to come out this month.
The four black stickers are for the clear green parts on the foot.
i love gundam. tip: dont use the stickers that come with the box buy come paint and make stencils.
Althought Gundam Wing anime was not very good, model kits made from them were great. Expesially these 1/100 HG model kits.
@bigred2989 That was an animation error. Its already been stated it was and that it was just a mistake and that epyon has nothing but melee weapons.
@vegeta8259
My bad, I mean: Which gundam Model kit from the Gundam Wing Series would you suggest? I mean all of your videos make them look interesting but I can't choose between tallgeese, Wing zero, or Epyon...
id like to take advantage of hlj's restocking of epyon... but then again a MG might just be around the corner... nice paint job as always though =)
i hope they include this in the high grade after war series of gundams
@strikeslifer 1/144 is around half the size of the 1/100.
Although the 1/144 is smaller and easier to put together, the 1/100 has size, detail and articulation that the 1/144 can't hope to match.
great review and paint job
@vegeta8259 and youre right about that, and of course since it would be a MG one would hope for better physical proportions
Question. Does this have a frame like other 1/100 models? Also can the older models be compatible with the action base stands?
i hope bandi desides to make a master grade of epyon that could be one badass kit
@vegeta8259 Or maybe the saber can shoot the beams, sorta like Zeta :O.
Epyon was always my favorite Zechs was a beast pilot as well
Ironic. Trieze had the Epyon built for his warfare ideals of noble hand to hand combat, yet the mobile suit he pilots Tallgeese II had the giant dober gun on the right arm.
What top coat do you use on your painted kits
I was wondering if you still have the technical manual for this 1/100? Do you think you scan it and put it in the internet? Like photobucket?
what paint did you use to paint the burgundy parts? i've been looking everywhere for the right colour and i can't get hold of it, apart from some crap paint i bought that flaked off
are u going to get the master grade when its released ?
This was one of my first kits, if only Bandai made a Master Grade...
did you use gray or black fine marker for the detailing? i'm working on this gundam myself and i dont know which to use
It looks like Epyon is doing an uncomfortable yoga pose at the beginning... Besides that, nice paint job!
Hey vegeta8259, i got a question thats totally off topic, from the Epyon. Is there any pack like the strike alie pack or sword impulse pack, that can fit on to 1/100 Astray red frame NG ? with out modification ?
@75touch You probably know this by now, but there's been an MG announced for this!
If I order a Wing Gundam model Kit which one do you recommend the MOST?
its got great engineering just a more aesthetically pleasing MG would win me over completely
What happened to making your spare heat rod florescent orange to make the rod look as if it's activated?
need quick response: should i get that or a heavy arms custom
how'd you get your hands on this model? I haven't found it ANYWHERE! =/
i hope bandai makes a mg epyon soon
How did you make the joints tighter on the legs because my epyon's legs won't in neo-bird mode
@miscriant I would love to get a PG or MG of it, pitty bandai are bastards -shakes fist-
As much as I loved the Astray Red I am still distressed that they can make a PG of a manga gundam and not manage to create a MG of one of the two main gundams from wing.
Ah Epyon, my fist HG. To bad I ruined him by brush painting him..
where can i get some gundam toys in shops in london?
@vegeta8259 Leave him alone. I think it takes incredible skill to build that with a twinkie in one hand
I had all the 5 main gundams except Shenlong Gundam.Sad=.=
i dont feel like buying the expensive kits how would say the Gundam Wing - Wing Gundam 0 1/144 Scale Model Kit WF-09 is compared to the others out today. plus is this kit any good in your opinion since it is only 9 dollars please reply.
Question is 1/144 Epyon the same as 1/100 eypon? and is it easier to put together?
they should make a MG epyon
This model maybe kinda fat, out of proportioned and unstable but its still a good model, still getting the MG version of this
@horace10 yeah really Epyon is too awesome.
is the epyon still in stock
MG MG MG MG!!!! ahahha..this kit is just screaming a Master Grade treatment
nice
did this come molded in 1 color?
is it for sale?
is that rx-78 MG?
@popole65 of pure muscle probably
@vegeta8259 ohh thank you
Make this a MG already, fuck.
Nothing wrong with Gundam Wing fanboyisim =D Wing was awesome.
Hg 1/00?
some may say your a nerd but fuck them, i say youre a badass
i thought all high grades are 1/144 scale?!
@KrnMusicLover23
nevermind
by ur hands i can tell ur at least 250 pounds.
@00rebornz its actually one of the worst gundam shows
lol shameless gundam wing fanboy
