Despite the origami nature, I love the transformable suits like it. As intricate as the transformations are, I don't know if it's worth it exactly, but you at least get better alt modes than very simple ones like the Wing's. Imo at least. But that said, for display I'd probably buy a HG to display the Aly mode side-by-side and save myself the pain of regular transformations. Or doing it live if a curious guest asks about it.

I believe the winglets that you pull out is inspired by the glove vanes on a real life F-14. Those winglets only extend when the aircraft reaches a certain speed for extra life. It's really cool they added that design detail.

That makes sense, considering that the Zeta Plus is kind of a swing-wing design too!

The C1 has been one of my favorite mobile suits since I was a kid. It's unique because it's one of the few that isn't blazing in several different day-glow colors. So happy to finally see a decent toy version of it after so many kits. Thanks for the review. (EDIT: Of course, my other favorite is the Akatsuki from Gundam Seed, in super blinged-out gold. Go figure. Did you get that one?)

A1 variant got announced and has the A2 head and also C1 parts for 22k yen. This video has been pretty insightful since I own the HG Unicorn which I think sucks, and my MGs got so loose they cant even stand so I'm hoping this new A1/C1/A2/C2 variant that got announced will be the definitive Zeta Plus for me.

Hey there again! I have a video recommendation. I'd love to see you do the MG RX-78-2 Gundam The Origin, to see how complex of a build it is versus the 3.0, and tell us which of them you recommend. It just would seem fitting, because you've built and reviewed A LOT of other RX-78-2 Variants. On a separate note, I'd love to see you do a PG build, with you just commentating on it as you build it. I'd love to see a 1+ hour-long video, because your videos are just so entertaining. Thanks!

Thanks for reviewing this, it's kinda hard to find a full, comprehensive review of this specific figure. Glad to see it turned out rather great, was definitely worried about it's flopiness, but it's all good. Hope they make the Hummingbird variants at some point.

Great review, Citrus. Please be more active doing Gundam stuff. It doesn't matter whether you review expensive figures or cheap old kits. Covering rare/old items which haven't been reviewed by many will be more appreciated. We need more reviewers with good camera work & framing like you. Also, keep doing in-depth reviews the best you can. Thanks.

Absolutely love this figure. I've seen it on sale for as low as $101 USD new so its not too bad compared to the EX-S Gundam. The still joints are very hard to break in (damaged a part of the shoulder armor trying to break them in) but once its loose, its great at poses and I love the detail and transformation gimmick. I should add though that the legs on my Zeta became very loose after like 4 transformations. Was able to tighten them again but it was a bit annoying.

Also, if you think this transformation is scary, I’d like to see you try to transform the RG Zeta lol. Zeta Plus series prob have the easier transformations because you don’t have to deal with the clunky flying armor of the regular Zeta. Once you’ve break in the metal joints and loosen them up a bit, the transformation is pretty easy, save for trying not to scratch the paint.

@Tripledashhh_
@Tripledashhh_ 2 года назад
The only reason why this is scarier than that, is cause this figure is about 150-200 and when you scratch the paint or break a piece. That’s gonna be either an eye sore or a total anger inducing experience. RG zeta no issue you can disassemble it.

You make the transformation look easy. Excellent video! And it was a dick move on Bandai's part that they didn't include a separate shoulder part with a 03 and made a whole separate P-Bandai figure. I find that very frustrating. I am hoping we will get the red and blue color schemes from this line with humming bird parts.

As of now, all I have is the "base" set of Gundam Markers, and those metallic sharpies you recommended. Thanks again!

In the Sentinel manga, there's 3 Zeta Plus C1 assigned to TaskForce Alpha. Cheaper to buy 2 MG and built them but keep it in waverider mode while the other is in MS mode. I got 4 MG with a pair for MS and MA modes. I'm just waiting for Bandai to release an MG HummingBird by expansion set or full MS and i'll probably get several of them. My original Zeta Plus C1 is close to a couple decades old and unfortunately the plastic is a bit more brittle, which gives me an excuse to just buy a new MG and build it again.

@@citrusjuicebox Already got both the Red&Blue Gundam Fix Figuration Zeta Plus A1/C1 HummungBird nearly a couple of decades ago when it came out. More interested in building and then modding it. Unfortunately the MG S-Gundam Booster Pack is sold out&too expensive if it's available as i'd like to get a couple of them to complete the 3 Zeta Plus TaskForce Alpha. Looking for 3rd party 1/100 Booster Packs but not acrylic. I do have the Bandai Metal Robot Spirits Soul Ka signature S Gundam Option Parts Booster Unit but it's not 1/100 scale, more like 1/95.
