MG Full Armor Unicorn Gundam (Part 11: Verdict) FA Gundam UC ver.Ka gunpla review

[xXxCloudo0oStrifexXx]

U r funny

[MrDannii83]

are you getting the banshi?

[GundamReviews90630]

@MrDannii83  Banshee

[navigatorhat]

Out of curiosity, have you tried the blacklight on that FA Unicorn frame yet?

[OneJoeZee]

Robert, one thing I've never agreed with you about the Unicorn gundam is the difficulty of the transformation. I wouldn't call it simple but I think it's rather straight forward to do. I've turned mine from Unicorn to destroy numerous times and only the first time had me impatient. After that, it can be done in a few minutes no problem.

[ontogc]

i want to get a gundam which is better gundams made by bandai or gundam?

[legendbooks]

@ontogc All of gundam is owned by bandai, you may find companies like tt hongli that make kits but those are knock offs meaning they have poor quality. Stick to bandai and you'll not be displeased.

[ontogc]

@legendbooks thanks

[legendbooks]

@ontogc You have a particular grade you want to start with?

[ontogc]

@legendbooks im probably going to get the 1/100 master grade exia

[soulenvy]

i'm just wondering does the psycho frame really glow on backlight?

[Grarrgle]

"They do NOTHING, very similar to the goggles."

This is the reason I watch and love your videos.

[OneJoeZee]

@Grarrgle Completely agree.

[raisingsword]

rob how do you panel line your kits with your gundam markers(just bought it and dont know how to use it)

[CaramellDancerElite]

Just finished watching Gundam AGE 14, wai wai did she have to die it was too early

[MrKurokirin]

chances are you heard something no man should nor wants to hear, "I think your piece just broke"

[Justshoot1445]

I prefer full amour and destroy mode UCs!(I dont like the colour of it)

[Justshoot1445]

too complex might result in not nice!

[TheTheomega123]

sugoi !!!

[jonabinks]

the base jaber looks lego-ish

[miguelspazz16]

It looks good but i wouldint call it full armor UC gundam, i think something like fully armed or weaponized UC gundam would have sound better but its not a big thing

[trewerd]

So in the end, it's still a statue.

[CyberSlayer128]

Looks like Benagher is trying to compensate for something...

[Lucienda]

Great review of this kit. Personally, I never liked this kit when I saw it, too much of a brick and I wasn't really very impressed with the weapons they included. I do like the Base Jabber though.

[phoniexExia]

I wonder if The MG Heavyarms going to have weight issues?

[scanprod]

i'll just wait for the HG, that way to much for me

[LelouchVsGundam]

I'll probably wait for an HGUC version. That would take up less space on the shelf and wouldn't cost over 100 bucks. Can't say this Master Grade doesn't tempt me though.

[TheMrchrisi]

Thumbs up if you like pancakes! xD

[tenkaminari]

If I have this kit, I'm sure I'd glue most of the joints especially the knees and ankle to keep them stay.

[a13ert]

comparing this fa unicorn with the old unicorn ka version, i found out my old unicorn ankle has more strong connection and joint than the new one. i will try to swap all the weapons to my old one and let's see what happens. tho the old one psychoframe are very loose.

[Eqvil]

"The yellow V fin looks good with the blue on the feet..."

My reaction: There's blue on the feet? Where? :-O

[ad31638]

FINALLY!

[gatorback65678]

BLACK LIGHT PLEASE!!!!!

[xUsagiEffect]

@camero55465 gundamstoreandmore, hobbywave, or hlj

[camero55465]

so what would be the best website to buy a good gundam modle? specialy a fredoom or strike freedom gundam? (i live in the U.S.)

[Athos523]

@camero55465 i buy mine from robot4less which is in California so no worries about custom fee.

[camero55465]

@Athos523 Thanks a lot :)

[darkz1820]

shlould have given a custom base

[exile650]

Tempted to get this, but all I really want are two gatling guns to put on my ova Unicorn.

[kevin021002]

The shield on the backpack is wrong direction...

[SploraDorali]

about the shoulder joints, for me, when I pull them out all the way, they pop out the shoulder vulcans while transforming so I don't have to pick them out with a knife. I'm not sure if that's really what's supposed to happen, but I'm pretty sure it's not broken and it actually makes things a bit more convenient.

[capsuletoyco]

i'd put some foam rubber on the bottoms of those "lawn furniture" stands then they wont slide around anywhere.

[Zonnza]

Do a blacklight video please!

[blvk3]

have you made up the money you spent on the kit with all these parts?

if you know they are too long, then stop making yourself looking like a money hungry reviewer.

[That1awesomeguy]

@blvk3 I like these detailed long reviews and he does not come off as a money hungry reviewer at all. You don't have to watch these if you don't want to.

[Dialga15132]

Still buying one...

[jiminboo]

Weight issues... duuuh! ^_^ still a cool looking MS.

[txwalker13]

Now you need to get the HG Unicorn Banshee. I'll be picking those and the HG Unicorns up here soon.

[SuperMyl3z]

Is the green similar to the green from the Celestial Being Action base?

[breakerfury31]

@rrobbert184 this is a great kit and i love it. but i couldn't stop laughing seeing the shield backwards

[7kiku7honda7japan]

I really really like this kit, but by the looks of things I can wait a bit to get this...

[MegaManVolnutt97]

My issue with peoples reviews using complaints about parts falling off as a downside is the fact that super glue of about any sort or variety can solve the issue for most parts without giving up articulation. If you glue the right parts and areas down the whole package becomes far more stable. The parts such as the foot armor on the sides, the clips for the launchers are a prime example, if you are always going to display it with a clip in you should just glue them down.

[shenaniganz08]

@MegaManVolnutt97  and lose the ability to take it apart/paint/ show the inner frame=fail

BTW not to say that gluing a kit is always a bad idea. For kits with seam lines or if you plan to paint tamiya plastic cement is way superior to crazy glue

[bluspeed7]

@hihyou superglue or paint ;)

[theempir3]

Another great video as always man. Im really tempted to pick this one up as i love the way it looks. Just on the fence at the prospect of an OVA version coming out with vulcans etc.

[CTSVT24]

that the same reason i bought it. looks badass in full armor mode and thats how i'll keep it. good review and cann't wait for more (MG AGE-1 normal =) )

[hihyou]

I just finished building the OVA ver. and it looks amazing. Though I must say the ankles are slightly weak and that tab in the back wants to flip open often. I know that you can tighten the joints by putting glue on them and put them back together after it dries. my question is what KIND of glue? :(

[Foresutu]

Rrobbert, I know you've probably wrapped this all up but... I think others might want to see it. I've done it myself and it's absolutely stunning.

Display this under/over blacklight(s).

It works even better than the red psycho frame. Enjoy!

[TheNIEMESIS]

rrobbert you must transform only the backpack with all weapons but let the gundam in unicorn mode, the put it on the base jabber and you got the base jabber attack mode

[Arro3]

Personally, I think those problems are something I could work with. I mean, all joints can be tightened if you know what to do. :P I will definitely pick this up when I have the money.

[dragonzero201]

i want a PG of this!

[waterfire163beys]

@dragonzero201 holy chit bro

[Albicrane]

ur review is exactly double the eps of unicorn gundam xD

[aleshamder]

Looks retarded.

[UlrichVIII]

I hope we can watch this monster in the OVAs *u*

[resistancefights1992]

thts sweeet gundam it makes me want to build it

[GrandEX19]

I wonder who would win in a battle of heavy weaponry of Full Armor Unicorn Gundam, GP03D, and Strike Freedom with Meteor System?

[OdeToSoIitude]

expect a Full Armor Unicorn Gundam OVA ver.

[cyberxspeed]

I'm just baffled how this is called Full Armor.

[OnyxMP312]

Ex-s Gundam and Heavyarms wannabe >_>

[megas2468]

& 2:49 - 2:56 Simpsons reference lol (^^)

[blacksolar212]

Fon only wishes he could pile that many guns onto the Astraea

[mApppel]

i suppose all thats left for you to do now is showing off the glowing spycho frame^^

[xC4Rbonx]

Looks amazing, but I don't know if I'd want to deal with parts coming off and stuff. My Strike Rough was only doing that with the ankle armor and that was already driving me nuts.

[onelasttitan]

@xC4Rbonx yeah, i actually only want this kit for the green psycho frame

[xC4Rbonx]

WEAK ANKLES. HUEHUEHUEHUA

[Heroduothecomedian]

this suit would had been so bad ass if we got him full armor in gundam muso 3 aka dynasty warriors gundam 3

[broodjebamibal]

Model kits are display pieces anyway, Gunpla just has articulation.

I also build a few tank models myself and those tend to be fixed pose all the time.

This model being an absolute brick is logical seeing what the model is.

[xghoulxx]

how is weight issues even considered a negative in this kit? I had to laugh at that.

[NextAsian]

About the shoulder, at the base of the peg of the shoulder to torso connection there is a little protrusion. That protrusion goes into a little inlet together with the peg keeping the shoulder in place, so the shoulder was never meant to move out from the torso and you probably broke that Rrobbert.

Anyway great review, i had a blast building it, and it looks like an absolute beast

[TimmyJ2814]

I remember seeing the initial pictures of the Full Armor Unicorn in Hobby Japan and it had gray boosters as well as the shields being gray. I'm not sure what I like more though, the gray in the pictures or the actual white.

[6Baltej6]

eh get off my lawn furniture >:(

[Mecha82]

Some of those cons were expected as they are same onces that orginal Unicorn Gundam Ver Ka has. Its a shame that they didn't fix those issues.

[guanyu210379]

MG Super Mega Heavy Weapon!!!

[apanst]

"Very similar to the goggles"

Oh you.

[deklore]

FINALLY the verdict

[Tahkaullus01]

Trowa Barton is jealous of Banagher

[mApppel]

@Tahkaullus01 i dunno about that, the heavyarms has more missles depending on which version of his gundam you look at^^

but i suppose that beam gatlings cant really run out of ammo and that has bitten trowa in the butt on more than one occasion...

[yuyuhaio]

@Tahkaullus01 Naaaaah... Heavyarms never had the falling over repeatedly issue. Plus Heavyarms' is way more mobile than the Unicorn. (I'd like to see the "incredible brick" even attempt to do a front flip with a triple axil spin... it's just not happening) lol

[Cloudz9]

@Tahkaullus01 Judau Ashta is also jealous.

[mrcipher00]

rrobbert you shouldn't do that on the shoulder...but it's not a big deal

[RobsGamingNetwork]

I think it's really weird that the gundam holds his javelin like that. This thing really pops out at me, but after the Zeta C1 Plus, I'm really not ready for a kit that will give me problems like that. Still, it looks badass.

[variablex]

@RobsGamingNetwork what kind of problems did you have with the zeta c1 plus? i just finished building it, applying decals, and top coat, but, during the build i didnt really encounter any problems o__o

[RobsGamingNetwork]

@variablex I didn't like the fit process, and how the legs are attached by two small pegs to the backpack area. The chest area was also a royal pain.

[variablex]

@RobsGamingNetwork aw man yeah i know what you mean, although personally i enjoyed that aspect of it, it was kind of a pain to construct the whole torso. The thing i hated the most about it though was that cloth wire piping, pain in the butt to get it right Lol what i do like about the kit though is how sturdy it is after and the locking mechanism for the hip joints to keep it from splitting arent too bad. They could be better, but eh, sorry to hear you didnt quite enjoy it as much XD

[HPZ0NE]

rrobbert, what was the third option for the horn/V-fin of the OVA version ?

[YuriBo26]

@HPZ0NE A solid one-piece open horn

[variablex]

@HPZ0NE for the OVA version they included 3 options, a transformable v-fin, the unicorn horn, and an already transformed v-fin. the one he was talking about was the already transformed v-fin i think.

[Vn2Doky]

This gundam is ugly

[TheNIEMESIS]

wow its procesin...
