GBWC 2019 - Gunpla Builders World Cup Finals in Tokyo, Japan: The Complete Inside Experience! [Pt.1] 

Honestly this was very incredibly made, entertaining, and tasteful as well. Your content is constantly improving and am excited for your channel future. Great video!!

That Kit from the italian Matteo looks sick, damn those details. even though doesnt have a MS in it looks amazing.

Amazing how the gunpla championship brings everyone together, no matter your race, language

The simple comraudery and even friendship between builders is really what makes me love this community.

Zach: GBWC complete experience! Also Zach: Part 1!

I got so lucky getting to hang out with you guys that day! Have you had any chance to see if our interviews made it to tv/internet? Thanks again for letting me hang out with all of you over the weekend!

Bandai reps are so nice. My boss used to meet with them for lunch, and they are passionate about their properties. I once had a disagreement over a design choice with him because he didn't realize the character we were making had different hair color in a specific costume. During their lunch, they pointed this out to him, and he informed me of his mistake.

Thank you for such a wonderful video. It’s so well made. The music is perfect. Your camera work is excellent 👌. It was neat to see these builds we’ve been seeing now have the builders faces with them. The builder interviews were inspirational. I’m glad you got some you don’t see often like from Italy and Canada. I’m honored Tim got to represent my USA 👍. Keep up the great work, Zach. Happy Holidays.

As a guy who grew up on Gundam, I dont think I'll ever get used to using the term "Gunpla"

Damn, this really makes me wish I had friends that were into Gunpla. Looks like an amazing experience.

i like the interview with the contestants, usually we just get to see their kits, nv knowing the idea and story.

I visited Gundam Base 2/3 weeks after the event. This explains why there were so many models in the display cases. I had no idea this had happened. Very cool!

This was so Cool. What a great view of the GBWC EXPERIENCE. That had to be so much fun.

That was a wunderful vid. Love to see part 2!!

Thank you. I enjoyed this vid very much and I'm glad that apparently you had a great time too. I hope you have had a merry X-mas.

I was there when Nicolas won the GBWC Qualifiers in Montreal. It was indeed a great build. I honestly thought it wouldn't win, but I was proven wrong. Now that i got another look at it, I can see that he deserved that victory and to have an experience I can only dream of.

Thank you for this video mate. Love your work as always

thanks zak for giving us the same feeling to join GBWC. it was really exciting!

Hotel Looks like the Sacramento County Jail.... um, not that I spent anytime there. LOL.... great video! I subscribed because of this video.

“What chu got there?” “Sooooy sauce”

Zakuaurelius going deep undercover the into the seedy underbelly of Tokyo known as the Gunpla Builders World Championships! Thanks for the effort and video Zaku! I wish I could hit Japan!

I said thank you to Adam by buying a Hazel 2 and a Origin Guntank from him last week.

Thanks for your record videos. And my I have your permission to reproduce these three episodes of 2019 GBWC to the Chinese video website to let more Chinese player have access to see what behind the rewarding ceremonial? Thanks a lot.

Air drops is a good idea. Really cool idea and very real as a pilot for what would happen.

great video! keep it up boss!

Love the video.

AUZ: Took about 6-7 months (looks pretty detailed) EU: Took 6 months (looks good but basic and no extra flare) Korean Guy: Took 3 months (looks like it took 8 years)

Someday in the future not only this kind of event will happen. We might even see our own Gunpla battle in the future.

great video as always ; ) With that being said, where's the french build ?

Gunpla builder fighters, the true builders...

Killer video. I am now very very hungry 😂

That sushi though... Eat-tadakimasu! xD Thank you for showing us this wonderful trip!

Thank you for the video :)

This is awesome! I love the military builds like America, Canada and Italy. It seems like they like the samurai fantasy twist.

hope that someday i can see a plaque that says "Uruguay champion" or "latin america champion" ...but well lol

This is nothing like the Gunpla cartoon!

felt like i was there great job:)

I really loved that military themed diorama

Do you have an idea if they get the dioramas made from a company or do the gunpla builders build them?

You need to record on something better than your cellphone and watch the over exposure. Kills a lot of the picture you're trying to paint. Cool video though

This is actually much more interesting than the official awards ceremony video.

Time build is dope, the one criticism I have is that the parachutes are casting a huge shadow, maybe some spot lights or something from the enemies he’s dropping in on would’ve been cool. Still very very dope.

Man, I hope I can get that skilled with building (just started really getting into Gunpla recently. Your channel helped with that, so I wanted to say thanks :) ). Only real question I have with GBWC is,, in regards to building your scene, can you make your own parts out of bits of plastic that you cut yourself (from like a plastic stock sheet), or is the only way to get additional parts to kitbash from other Bandai sets. One of the rules for the contest confuses me: it says that Bandai parts must be used in the construction of your piece, and that bootlegged parts, 3D-printed parts, and counterfeit parts are banned, as per what the GBWC website says. It does not mention other parts of your entry piece that you make yourself, and since in dioramas like these it's obvious that some home-made parts are used, I'm wondering to what extent this rule applies to when it comes to any part that is not from an official Bandai kit (in other words, is kit-bashing the only way you can add parts to a piece, or can you make some of your own parts?).

I haven’t seen Gundam build fighters but this is what I imagine it being like

Damn, I was literally just in Japan and at Odaiba at the same time you were there lol.

Ohhh, I've actually seen that blue dragon white knight when I was there, so that was one of the japanese contestants? Kind of sad I wasn't able to see all these with my own eyes, but what they had looked nice none the less. Btw. Are there mastermind sazabi and nu gundams coming?

The korean kit was amazing as well

that ground drop legit can't look at it for more than a few seconds it trippy AF how that works

Holy cow, i only noticed now that Tim lost some weight. Aside that this is an awesome video.

Hey I’ll say thanks to Adam too that signature/postcard has been inside of few of shipments as the one who lovingly wrapped my army in bubble paper.

Gbwc sounds soo fun

Watching this after they postponed the event in my area scheduled next week. Oh boy

that was an epic fun experience, also those sushi makes me hungry for some.

Hey mister!😆...just wanna ask do you speak filipino/tagalog?

me seeing the Italian champ: that’s not ricardo fellini

Just built my first Gundam Exia

38:20 made the cut hell yeah

Hanging out at GBWC with the same guy from Bluefin that you made an extended video bashing back in May when they announced the ill-advised USA voting process is kinda...I don’t know man. It doesn’t seem like a great look to me.

THIS IS SO FN COOL!

Where can I find the music you used for this?

Imagine putting all that effort into those parachutes only to discover they're just blocking the light from the actual figure.

Lol the outside of the hotel looks like the outside of an American penitentiary

When did Ryan Gosling start wearing glasses?

Can someone post a link to the situation they’re talking about at 4:55? I can’t find anything about it

I was in the competition for junior course I'm 13 I did a unicorn Gundam mobile suit in red and black and did the background a light red it was earlier than open course

finally! :)

Is we have a system that’s make our gundam build to able moving, I just want to know what happened is this video about how the gundam fighting

12:13 Round1! They just opened one at my local mall.

This was tasty like waffles

Ha! I went to that same kaiten sushi place! Twice actually!

adams a great guy

Wow. How old are these guys?

10:20 "We're gonna pick up your ARTWORK" hell yeah its art! sure as hell much more a work of art compared to a banana duck taped on a wall

Someone should make a diorama of archangel michael with a gundam wing

I like the music theme @wattles uses the same :)

WoW! How to join!?

wowwww

Omg the Italian would not shut up! I dozed off and had to find my place again

Philippinessssss

14:16 IS THAT MARIJUANA (im joking ofcourse)

SAD no HYPERION :((

"sa side ko muna siya ipasok"

I thought these guys would be in their 20's maybe 30's but their all middle aged men.....interesting.

Sigh I am so jealous TT^TT I can barely make a straight built TT^TT nevermind having the skill or cash to build my own designs I’ve made in GB3

11:15 the store says "unko museum tokyo" wtf japan...

Where's the phil entry?

whoever was interviewing at 16:05 kept on moaning after every sentence the french guy finished.

ahh there was a Filipino in there, who was that haha

Aaaay Zudah!

GO CANADA

Sa side ko muna sya ipasok? Random pinoy 😂

L

like usual, Australian people is disrespect to other country, how come some national flag put on the ground

This year's gbwc work is ass and not appealing
