There is going to be 26 mission packs, so if you wanted to have multiple packs displayed, you have to pay the premium on the main kit each time. Totally should have been a full release.
I really like the F90’s design and as a mobile suit. Love how sturdy it is like older MG’s too like the RX-78 2.0. I’ll definitely think about grabbing one!
agreed. seems that they have started to slow down on P-bandai purchases. I've been buying a lot more P-bandai recently and I would love to support USAgundamstore, but they just don't have the kits
Yeah man I even personally requested that they shoot me an email if they'd ever get it in, too which they happily replied that they would. I JUST bought the damn thing off ebay for 110 dollars. Jesus man
It feels like we're gonna get to the point where anything that's not a main series protag suit is a high probability of a premium bandai release. Sucks. That's a lot of phenomenal engineering that must have taken time only to make it limited.
Very NICE! I don't usually bother with P Bandai but this is one I'm really considering on buying. It looks great has a really solid build not to mention the part separation is incredible!
For some reason, the cap on the back pack port refuses to stay in place for me. Ultimately, I ended up just putting the shield on the back, rifle on the butt, and put both beam sabers in the hands. I just hope the weapon kits aren't affected.
That just means you don't have the halves of the backpack pushed together tightly enough. I've just built my 5th F90, so I'm getting pretty knowledgeable about these kits.
Although I have not really liked the mission packs all that much, I REALLY like this MS and would like to get it if not just to display it on it's own. You can get it for around 90 bucks unless P-Bandai America starts selling it.
Despite the reissues, the kit is still rather pricey to get state-side. looking forward to getting one early next year. it does looks like we will see about 15 (several double and a few single) releases of A-Z project mission packs.
There aren't a lot of intricate mechanics or gimmicks. The main gimmick is really just the hardpoints, and all the expansions, which are indeed pretty cool, but require additional kits. There is nice small part color seperation and all of that. It's a pretty straightforward kit, it's just nice and solid and looks great.
To put it this kit in my personal opinion, it had a really fun build and overall would of been a perfect beginner mg. Besides that the hands can be problematic
You're better off waiting for a revive Alex. If you're just wanting frame parts to fix the Tristan, maybe try something like the revive Blue Destiny or the GM/GM frame.
@@TsorovanZero actually the Biceps armor and elbow joints would fit perfect for the Tristan with very little moddification, as well as the EZ8 thighs and knee joints and hip joints.
Glad you chose to review this. It's a really nice kit and the P-Bandai release feels like a strange anomaly. I wonder if they will be releasing it as a non P-Bandai once they finish with the add ons. The add ons are certainly a mixed bag and so far not up to par with the base kit in terms of color seperation or construction, but they can look pretty cool with a little work.
considering the Mission Packs are based on the entire alphabet, if you want to display all of them being used at the same time you have to buy 26 of this guy to do it, lol.
Jango The Blue Fox imagine how much that would suck. You think you’re getting an amazing premium MG, but you’re actually getting a decent non grade from the 90s.
Having the suit with each weapon pack is a fat NO from me. I much prefer the two packs in a box idea, I don't want to pay for the kit each time. The point of the suit is configuring it with the different weapons sets like the old cartoon Centurions! I'm also sure that most people will get one box or two of the packs they like the most. Let the die hards spend if they wish to. All Bandai should have done is made F90 mass retail and the packs p-bandai.
It's not unsightly at all they are flush with the model in hand and panel lined it's a perfect panel line it doesn't look like a empty seam at all because the 90degree step down.
It's gotten to the point to where now every single time I see premium bandai just pretend it doesn't exist... And I'm poor I don't have a bank to break
@@masterkent1 Oh really? That's not a valid argument because you don't agree with it? Do you think Bandai will change their sales policy because you moan online about kits being PBandai instead of regular releases? THEY! DON'T! CARE! They're Japanese. They won't risk a niche product for the sake of a few people that like really tiny MG kits compared to a lot that don't. If you like it so much, BUY IT ONLINE. If you just like bitching online, understand that people don't really like that sort of thing.
@@zer0bre what? So ur telling me because bandai wont change shit about it, we should shut up and just lick their corporate boots and refuse to form any single criticism about it? That sounds like a really dumb rhetoric to me.
Gerbera was a terrible master grade so I doubt they'd use parts from such an unstable kit. The scale is also off. This is much smaller than the GP-04 would be.
@@Ryzearn Yeah, was thinking of the GP-03. They all look pretty similar minus Physalis. The fact that 04 is an RE proves the point that it and this could not possibly share parts.
Jake .Chart the only way Premium Bandai stops is if we stop buying them. As long as these get money, they will continue to make these exclusives. It sucks that’s the only seeable option, but that’s the only way.
RGM-79SP _ ahh yes, if we stop buying them. I hear that every time people talk about them not liking products and then people still buy it anyways. Bandai made P-Bandai for a reason

Holy shieet
Bandai greed, market it as P-Bandai to cover short production run and someone's ass if sales fail.
Quite crazy that we got a MG from an old obscure non-anime UC series before we got the G-Self
Hazel...
Cause no one cares about the G-self, lol
@@davidez4640 that's probably why it's in top 3 of the desired MGs from the poll.

It's height equally the same as its Grandsons: Crossbone Gundam variants for a small size MS.
It's a 16m Gundam. So yeah.
The F90 is one of my favourite design of all time I've been waiting for years for a master grade and I'm delighted to know it's also an awesome one.
wish I could find this on usa gundam store...
agreed. seems that they have started to slow down on P-bandai purchases. I've been buying a lot more P-bandai recently and I would love to support USAgundamstore, but they just don't have the kits
Its probably because pbandai kits are made in limited quantities and sell out quickly

@@dr.jimeagleii4108 $45 on Amazon right now
U can pre order it today on p bandai for $50 right this second
I got the clear color version of this at the gundam base store - excited to build it

You’re already right. The Pixy, Mudrock, most of the Origin Gundams, etc. This honestly sucks that that’s the way it’s going.
Very NICE! I don't usually bother with P Bandai but this is one I'm really considering on buying. It looks great has a really solid build not to mention the part separation is incredible!
Be careful of the beam saber attachment on the backpack. I dropped my kit about 2 cm and it snapped ;-;
with the f90 manga and the changes in post unicorn /NT now i want a new RGM-109 HEAVYGUN Mastergrade xD
I second this
better yet a hardygun....

I have the same issue, so I didn't bother attaching that cap

Just went to a local shop here in Seattle and they actually had one, sniped that as soon as I saw it! Can't wait to build it.
Hopefully didn’t cost too much! But your enjoy the build either way!
@@ZakuAurelius No, they were selling it for 89$ actually!

Do you know if the f90II intercept type can be built into an F90?
How does it compare to the F91 2.0? In terms of the build and intricacies of its engineering that is.
I found it not quite as intricate. But mostly I think due to the design, not so much like they cut corners in the engineering
There aren't a lot of intricate mechanics or gimmicks. The main gimmick is really just the hardpoints, and all the expansions, which are indeed pretty cool, but require additional kits.
There is nice small part color seperation and all of that. It's a pretty straightforward kit, it's just nice and solid and looks great.
Love the f90s design compared to the f91
Right? Maybe it's the angles, but I like it a lot more.
BlueFacondor for me it’s the head, chest and feet that really stand out
F91 is a much better looking suit but the f90 has some cool equipment compared to the f91
@@Ryzearn eh, the f91 is a lot more different, but the f90 feels much more traditional which gives it a lot of charm
@@dol_mel7487 I disagree the f91 feels more traditional Gundam to me than The f90
To put it this kit in my personal opinion, it had a really fun build and overall would of been a perfect beginner mg. Besides that the hands can be problematic
The mesh tubing might be a little tricky for a beginner
Are you going to review the mg barbatos?
I'm still super pissed the HGUC Gundam Mudrock is PBANDAI. I really wanted to it for custom fodder for he HGUC Alex and Tristan and 1 for itself.
You're better off waiting for a revive Alex. If you're just wanting frame parts to fix the Tristan, maybe try something like the revive Blue Destiny or the GM/GM frame.
@@TsorovanZero actually the Biceps armor and elbow joints would fit perfect for the Tristan with very little moddification, as well as the EZ8 thighs and knee joints and hip joints.

the perfect base kit to make an MG Star Burning Gundam
It would have to be way taller, this is one of the small Gundams.
@@holden_7597 true, but if we would consider the silhouette it fits it nicely
considering the Mission Packs are based on the entire alphabet, if you want to display all of them being used at the same time you have to buy 26 of this guy to do it, lol.
I got an F90 super cheap too, like super bootleg. I got it for like $2 MIB
are you sure it wasn't just the 1/100 kit from the 90's? www.dalong.net/reviews/old/f901/f901.htm
Jango The Blue Fox imagine how much that would suck. You think you’re getting an amazing premium MG, but you’re actually getting a decent non grade from the 90s.
@@JangoTheBlueFox oh no, no. That's still a hundred times better than what I came across. This next level garbo that I got is eye burning
This thing is a wallet breaker with its packs.
Well you do not have to get all of them. I'll try to get the old classic ones and the V pack but for sure not all 26

@@pikkyuukyuun4741 I know that, In the video he alludes to wanting a copy of F90 with each one which wouldn't work.
the price is same with with Avalanche Exia in my country -_-
AAARRRGGGHHH....!!
time to sell my liver
The seam line down the middle of the thighs look awful though. Couldn't they have made it attached to the frame front and back??
What? it looks fine on the kit if you glue it just have it fitted flush its a 90 degree stepped panel line not a full gap.
thats the same way they did it on F91 and Crossbone. there's a panel line going straight through the thigh so that's where they separate the parts.
@@JangoTheBlueFox Well if it's accurate to the line art then okay. It's still unsightly IMO. lol

I get making all the addons pbandai, but man why the kit itself.
You said this is an all new MG, but lots of the parts look incredibly similar to the 1/100 gerbera
This looks nothing like the gp-04
The gerbera would be quite a bit bigger.
Gerbera was a terrible master grade so I doubt they'd use parts from such an unstable kit. The scale is also off. This is much smaller than the GP-04 would be.

Making actually brand new kit and making it P-Bandai. This is new low for Bandai.
Not really new. It's been going on for a while now. Look at the HG TR-6 line for exemple.
They've been doing this for a lot of the lesser known series. AoZ is the biggest example. It sucks that P-bandai is a thing, but nothing we can do
