  • The only 1/144 kit from Kyoukai Senki comes bundled with the November 2021 issue of Hobby Japan - it's the MAILeS Kenbu special model kit produced by Bandai! While the retail kits are 1/72, surely you'd be curious how they'd look like next to all your HGUC Gundam kits - and the designers really went out of their way to make an excellently-detailed kit despite the very small size.
    Also, make sure to check out the review of the full-fat HG 1/72 MAILes Kenbu kits:

    I've already ordered a few HGs from that series, and honestly? I love these designs. I don't know if I'll even watch the series, but man... something about it makes me love 'em!

    • @HobbyClubhouse
      @HobbyClubhouse  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Now you can do some detective work if you ever buy an old kit:) but Bandai is quite sloppy and I see wrong stamps quite often...
      I saw that exact video! I was thinking how awesome it'd be if Bandai Namco Asia did that for me too

    it's so small, though i think it'll look great painted up in camo and parked beside a D50 Loto.
    i do hope the anime ends up being good (and popular) so we have more diverse kits and what not. (still sad that we don't get much from something like Buddy Complex or Majestic Prince, for example)
    also, i see your cat is starting to steal the spotlight more and more, lol.

    • @HobbyClubhouse
      @HobbyClubhouse  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      If it gets camo then it'd go amazing with digital camo for urban combat.
      The magical animals in the animation is a bit of a wildcard. Sure hope they don't get too forced and obnoxious
      My cat Hobby really seems to have learned the hours I work at the desk there and parks himself in that corner, so you're not too far from the truth:)

      Or with a bit of touch-up with Gundam Markers (and a brush), it'd look fantastic

      @HobbyClubhouse  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      So you're going to get one of these as well:) An editor at Hobby Japan mentioned it's been a very long time since they've done model tie-ins so everyone probably long forgot it was a thing already (Dengeki Hobby did it way more when they were around)

    Thank you for this awesome video, I was curious about the size of the Kenbu compared to a Gundam. I'm excited to get Kyoukai Senki HG kits especially the Full Mechanics Kenbu. I hope the series is successful, I hate it when good mecha series fail.

    • @HobbyClubhouse
      @HobbyClubhouse  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      When I learned this kit was 1/144, I really wanted to get it and put it next to my other 1/144 kits myself:)
      I hope it works out too. Bandai can often be very cynical and exploitative with how they target their products, so it's great to see them make things that are genuinely interesting to us fans.

  • @UselessFox224
    @UselessFox224 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    As a fan of having kits on the same scale, It was a little bit of a bummer to know This 1/144 kit was gonna be exclusive to a magazine, i thought it was gonna come with one of the bigger kits (one model on 1/72 and one at 1/144 in the same box) or something like that

    • @HobbyClubhouse
      @HobbyClubhouse  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I'd like it too if they made these 1/144 as a budget line of kits like this. But yeah, the magazine will probably be the only way they'll ever release this

    I have to agree that is an impressively detailed little kit, considering the size! I really dig the off-set / staggered joint design these Kyoukai Senki mechs sport. I'm looking forward to trying a few of these kits out.
    On a side note: Is this the first time you used a black backdrop? I feel like this is the first time I've noticed. Whatever the case, it was a great choice for the subject matter. Nice Hobby cameo too!

    • @HobbyClubhouse
      @HobbyClubhouse  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      The black backdrop was always around but I only used it one time before. I think it was for one segment during the bootleg Xi Gundoom review in special cases when the model can't be on white:)
      I can't wait to look at the HG kits for Kyoukai Senki, I'm super excited about the radical new designs
