the lower arm guard was simply just a thruster. As it was connected to a GN Cable or pipe-like thingy that distributes the GN Particles for added thrust and mobility...the GN Composite Armor are GN Particles stored and are integrated with the armor which increased the MS's durability against beam attacks...just a hypothesis
GN Composite Armor is standard E-Carbon armor plating with tiny GN Fields created in the natural gaps in the armor, strengthening it against most physical attacks. Depending on the compression rate of beam blasts fired by enemy machines, the GN Composite will either block it or do nothing against it
Anything with a GN Drive is automatically awesome. I don't know why, but there's something that always brings me back to the Gundams from series and their variants
a.k.a. the "cursed Gundam" that caused the deaths of Feldt Grace's parents and scarred its pilot Chall Acustica until Fon Spaak pilots it and debunks the "curse".
Also, the Innovators have the blueprints of gen 2 and gen 3 Gundams through stored information in Veda (it does not have any information regarding ss2 Gundams), so they can not only build Innovator version of gen 2 Gundams, but also use its technology for their own MS design. Like the Plutone’s core block system is improved into the emergency escape pod for Innovators’ MS (Gadess, Gadessa and Garazzo)
I see this kit as a very nice looking display piece for plutone, I don't see me doing crazy poses with it but rather I'd display it inline with the other hg 00 kits to show the generational progression of the gundams which really helps flesh out the the build up story of 00
Glad I grabbed one of these from the P-Bandai store! I love that there is a US P-Bandai store and I can't wait for it to ship this month, I love the design of it. Thanks for the review!
I got mine at the end of october and I quite enjoy it. Its one of my fav HGs, both design wise and lore wise (its the precursor to the Nadleeh, Virtue, and Artemie)
This Core Fighter and those ones aren't the only Core Fighters in 00. After the events of Awakening of the Trailblazer, due to the ESF deciding to construct the bare minimum needed new GN Drives, most GN-XIVs were retrofitted into the GN-XIV Core Fighter Loaded Type, which is exactly what the name suggests
Hey dude just wanted to say that I have been watching your videos for awhile now and just wanted to thank you. Your videos have helped me in a lot on deciding which kits to buy. Keep up the good work and I’m looking forward to videos in the future.

Greetings Mecha Gaikotsu! I love to see your vids and the display of your gunplas! ^^ May I do a question? I wanted to start on the gunpla world and I saw the 30 minutes mission vids again, and I really liked those and all the customization options, wich one would you recomend from all the ones? Thanks and keep the good work!
It’s never going happen, but I wish they would make a kit on the series preproduction design of Exia, codenamed Pawn Gundam, as the initial design concepts of the gundams were based on chess pieces.
When it comes to 00 kits, I find the MGs to look more interesting, but I have to say, this looks good, hope I can get it some time. Hope they make a HG Gundam Abulhool
Thanks for the video. Quick question, if I buy dynasty warriors gundam reborn (from the psn store) in Japanese will I be able to change language to english?
I think Plutone's bulkiness is justified by the fact that it is the predecessor unit of Virtue and Nadleeh. Also, according to Gundam Wiki, those yellow round thing on its armor is actually GN Field generation devices, not GN thrusters
I can confirm from the build instructions I have, that the GN thrusters don’t flip up like their supposed to. They just press onto the shoulder armor pieces.
It's a cool looking Mobile Suit, a bit different than most of the MS designs I'm used to from 00 but still fits with the other MS designs, (note, I have 0% knowledge of any of the side stories from the 00 universe). But man with all those GN thrusters in the front on the shoulder armor and side skirts, it looks like it's meant to go backwards better than forward... I'm sure I'll catch a bit of flack from that but a really cool looking MS, with core fighter too, if it wasn't P-Bandai i'd running out to add it to my collection for sure.
While I’m sure they would work as thrusters, they are used as GN field emitters, as Plutone was used to develop GN field technology and was the predecessor to Virture/Nadleeh.
@@aicybot1905 Right, cool now I remember how the Virture and Nadleeh created their GN fields, so I get it now (no back ground knowledge of the Plutone's story, I actually now want to go check it out now) but you gotta admit all those 1st season, I guess 2nd gen MS's, the GN thrusters and GN field emitters look the same, it really comes down to how the MS is internally designed... so cool...
@@aicybot1905 I'll have to take a closer look at that, you can kinda get an idea of how an MS functions by watching the show or reading the story but I have found it's only after I've built the MS model kit can I really understand all awesome details of the functionality of the design... that's why I love this stuff
Bandai needs to make HG00 Revive kits. I expect we’ll get another P-Bandai in the form of HG00 GNY-004B Gundam Plutone Black later. It’s always great when Bandai releases more kits from Mobile Suit Gundam 00.
I believe it is just Plu-tone not plu-toe-nay. As in Pluto. (I could see the name reappearing in Build Divers Re:Rise as well.) It is the unit that was developed in to the Nadleeh, Virtue, and Artemie/GN Archer.
After looking over the build instructions, the shoulder thrusters (GN particle emitters) do not flip up out of the way like Plutone is designed. This explains in part why the articulation suffers.
Oh my god man. I have every non pbandai 00 kit so far and I love exia and 00 with means unfortunately I have to have this kit lol it's perfect and beautiful lol
Awww....you mean the gn field producing vents don't protrude or move? Like normally the shoulder armor is supposed to flip up and various parts of the armor somewhat unfold but I guess that isn't included in the hg? :/
They hold up well enough. I still have them and they are still good. 00 Raiser and Qanta are great and are probably the must have 00 kits in the early RG line.
Yeah I know pretty much every kit released recently that is a kit I want as all been PBandai and most of then I don’t see why they aren’t a normal release it’s hard enough to get Gundam related things outside Japan but it’s even harder when it’s PBandai
