[llViperStrikerll]

[dachandepred]

[tyrannicoystercult]

"obviously you're not gona see a zaku in real life" hahaha

[NabeshinHT]

Nice one, funny enough i have a PG Zaku 2 S and the PG zeta i bought two weeks ago, which are stuck in a delivery depo since the snow is stoping it being delivered. It will be nice to see a review on it :)

[0083titans]

@NabeshinHT Great great kits. I applaud you for taking a risk and picking up the older ones. Let me know if you run into any issues building them - for the most part I predict you will love the experience! Take your time and enjoy :)

I must say, the awesomeness of your channel is like bacon wrapped tater tots, no more awesome.

[GundamGuns]

The detail painting on the inner frame looks awesome with all the clear parts over it!! Good paint job with the Gundam markers too.  Must of took a long time to track down both sets... how much was this? Light up Heat Hawk FTW!!!

[0083titans]

@GundamGuns Appreciate it man! Good question. Together I payed 100 dollars for both sets a few years ago when I bought them from a close friend who was moving into a new place. After seeing how inflated the prices of these guys can be I'd say it was worth it XD.

The heathawk is, indeed, awesome but it takes some careful wiring ala the PG Wing Zero Custom or the PG Zeta - I'll get to that in my accessories portion of the review but with patience and determination the payoff is worth it haha.

[GundamGuns]

@0083titans Wow, only $100 for both sets... I only want set 1 so I can have the light up heat hawk!! Can you do a more in depth review of the light up mechanisms in the heat hawk?

[0083titans]

@GundamGuns You betcha :) I'll be covering all the weapons in the final part of the review.

[MaxDoverCoss]

It's awesome to see someone review a rare kit! The Custom Sets 1/2 are something a ton of people will probably never get to see own their own, so it's great that there's a review out there for everyone to see. Don't worry too much about what other people think though, you have one hell of a fine model here, I'd be pretty damn proud.

[0083titans]

@MaxDoverCoss Thanks Max! I try to put the Gundam oddities on here that are either very expensive (and thankfully I bought when they weren't) or just very weird/rare.

I still have plenty of surprises in store for the future :). Stay tuned!

[narutoman876]

That is one epic looking Zaku, and i hate the PG Zaku!!!!! Great work

and that teaser vid was very cool

[onenexus]

SWEEEEEEET!

[0083titans]

@onenexus Nexus, since I've basically replied to everyone on here I'll say this: you are my commenting hero. Short, sweet, and enthusiastic - I like your style sir :)

[arvinangeles2000]

cool Zaku! doesn't matter if its a Gundam Marker. You did a great job!.

For me detailng is detailing. You'll enjoy seeing it with details rather than just plain inner frame ;)

[0083titans]

@arvinangeles2000 Thanks for the nice comment! It's things like that make me feel good about showing people new things. I hope to venture out into hand-painting but I'm still gathering info and exploring paints. Seriously thanks for commenting :D

[buwaneka66]

was it hard to find the clear sets? how much were they?

[0083titans]

@buwaneka66 It's next to impossible to find these things new/sealed and your best bet is to find them on ebay. Unfortunately the sellers know how rare (especially Custom Set 2 because of the heathawk) the sets are and charge a pretty hefty premium. I bought these a long time ago from two separate people and I still payed nearly 2/3 of the price of a full PG Zaku II O.o

If it's any comfort its worth every penny if you love this design :)
