MG Gundam Epyon EW Review | GUNDAM WING GLORY OF THE LOSERS 

Honestly surprised we haven't gotten a Ver.Ka or RG of this guy yet. One of the coolest gundam designs.

You forgot to mention that you can pull out the wings a bit and they spread out in a "attack mode"

When he said "Master Grade Virsago" my heart jumped, hoping that it was coming, but then...

“I have a guide that will teach you how to live for now on”

The Epyon is just so freakin cool. I remember fighting against it in Gundam Wing Endless Duel and the music that played during the fight was absolutely SICK

FINALLY some justice for this kit after Jobby's not that bad review of it. Fun fact- this is the first Gunpla that Jobby ever built and painted

Mecha Gaikotsu is the reason I started building gunpla almost a year ago and the Epyon was my first Master Grade. Such an awesome kit!

"And its name is Epyon" one of the best episode in the series.

I got back into building gunpla because of mecha and hearing he’s gonna review this one gave me the idea to make a diorama of eypon vs wing zero ver.ka

Got this baby on ice. Waiting until I get my paint game down.

Kinda funny that this review goes live the same day as the episode of SD World Heroes where Nobunaga Epyon makes his proper debut. And a cool debut it was, at least when he went into combat.

Sir Mecha sure is on a premiere spree lately. Cannot wait for the premiere of RG RX-78-2, hopefully.

This was my first MG and I just ordered another to do some custom painting now that I'm more experienced. I wanted to add a couple notes to your review. The wings have a folding mechanism that expose its thrusters which looks amazing! The spikes on the legs are very very easy to break and pop off. And the armor plates on the skirt pop off constantly but a little glue fixes them easily. It's an AMAZING kit and fun build. The dark plastic does discolor the nubs easier if your not careful while nipping. I highly recommend this kit

also Mecha Gaikotsu thanks for all the model kit videos..ive got such a gigantic backlog of MG kits to buy even some like the Sword Impulse Gundam which go back to like 2007

This was my first MG kit, and my personal favourite of the WING series as a kid. Love it.

I've been binging your MG Wing reviews all day. Imagine my delight when I realized that you posted this a mere 5 hours ago lol

I'm just surprised he's reviewing a kit I have myself!

Heero- wanna trade Gundams Zechs- yes I do. Trades gundams

Kinda nice to see you review this kit, it was my first mg, and mg wing zero custom ver ka was my second mg, so its a nice match on my self

Remember how I was surprised when this kit was released back then, requesting an order immediately and building a month later just to realize what a fantastic design Epyon EW was.

this is what i've wanted to see you revieWING it

I live to hear Gaikotsu say “vigorous” total hype!

Ayyy, happy to see one of my favorite suits is a good kit. I've had this in my backlog since like October and I really need to get around to it.

Just finished building mine a few days ago. Great kit for fans of the Wing and EW models.

Ah, the MG Epyon, one of those venerable kits that made it to Syd's Top 5 Master Grades

YO I WAS WAITING for one of my fave gunpla RU-vidrs to make a epyon reveiw and seems like my most fav is

This was my first Master Grade. There's quite a few broken parts and uncleaned nubs but i still love it.

I love Epyon such an elegant name for an equally brutal and beautiful machine the os is a sugary masterpiece as well.

Love these retro gunpla reviews!!

Finally, some love for Epyon. I cant find to many people building him. Hes awsome. Second to Deathscythe, he's my favorite. Thanks for the review

Oh damn...i been waiting for this review 🥲... thanks mecha

I've had the epyon for years ( 1st graded ew kit I built followed by deathscyth ) while admittedly those leg spikes are prone to falling out " easily glued ) still a brilliant kit with details you need to see as pictures seem to hide them ( the original kit had more panel lines but less color separation ) I might get another just for posing in flight mode

Just finished building this kit 10 minutes ago. I got it for Christmas and it was quite fun go build while in quarantine

Epyon was my first master grade and fell in love ever since

Top 10 upcoming HGAC Kits 1)- Shenlong Gundam 2)- Tallgeese 3)- Gundam Deathscythe Hell 4)- Altron Gundam 5)- Gundam Epyon 6)- Tallgeese 2 7)- Taurus Mobile Doll 8)- Ares 9)- Cancer 10)- Gundam Heavyarms Kai

Until now mecha gaikotsu already review three of the kit that i have,hg gundam vidar,hg guneam barbatos 6th form and gundam astaroth.

I've always loved the design of the epyon it looks amazing, I recently got the hg gundam and zaku 2 revive, hopefully I can get a good master grade, maybe this one

"if Master Grade Virsago came out maybe, but I have the feeling it won't" Fuck man, you don't gotta stab me with the fact Gundam X isn't that popular.

This great and iconic Gundam deserves a 2.0 version, as well as a Ver. Ka!

Particularly looking forward to this one!

My first ever MG kit, I enjoyed every single bit of bit!

Yes Virsago and Astaroth are going to be nice MG kits.

This Gundam was lit. It's my brother favorite when playing Dynasty Warrior Gundam 2

That is for giving me a birthday party. I'll try to get another gunpla this year. Still deciding on which one.

You can also pull the wings down to spread a little. One of my favorite gunpla kit. Hope they will release a RG for this.

It's the first time I heard someone say that the epyon didn't look that great. Glad you changed your mind

Because of you Mecha, I'm able to choose which gunpla I'm going to buy next. Seriously, i don't know much about the gundam series. And I'm heavily relying on your tier system. If it is gold, platinum or gundarium tier. It will be on my top priority. Thank you Mecha 🙏👌

This was one of the first mg kits i built. It still is one of my favorites.

Mecha I’ve got some good news gfor you.The master grade Gundam 00 Gundam Vitue and Gundam Nadleeh are coming this November.

I’ve seen the mobile suit before but wasn’t really interested in it until I watched this video and I’m definitely wanting epyon now

This is my first Gunpla kit. Had it since May 2020. Looks great but not immune to some problems. Here are some I had: -"Ear" part loves falling off just the moment you touch it -Exhaust system on the arms falling off when you move the arms too much -The white part that covers the search eye already softened and broke off -The front fins on the legs have already loosened Also broke the beam saber hilt but that's on me probably LOL Still love this kit though. Glad MG decided to finally give it the most decent review that it deserves.

The Epyon would benefit from having a wire running through the heat rod. A good test to see if a rod or a bendable object is strong enough to hold its shape would be to use its weakest version, make it straight, and hang it by its end parallel to the ground. It's also heavy so any arm you attach it on will drop

PERFECT, i have this coming in from taiwan thank you mecha

The those knob marks ahhhhhhhh It gives me nightmares. Love the Zaku II.

Got two of these I'm going to kitbash the weapons and wings together

The search eye and vent below makes it look like it has a zaku head on its chest, and once you see the zaku, you can't unsee the zaku

My very very first ever mg I need to order some replacement parts to fix it up here and there but still brings back a lot of memories

I just watched this for the second time, and honestly it just made me want to get another Epyon kit to do a custom paint job on... I clearly have a gunpla problem.

When I was putting together this the left thumb went flying into the abyss of my cluttered room lost for all time! Wish they sold parts for these!!!

Easily one of my favorite Gundams and favorite kits. Kinda sad to see you only ranked it gold tier, but I still love it. Curious though if you have a list of what you consider to be Gundarium tiers or any of the others somewhere.

I will always love the epyon, I hope we see a full release of white epyon from frozen teardrop, I’d personally swap his beam trident with this epyon’s beam sword XD

I HAVE BEEN WAITING

You should totally review the Zero Gravity Judge Gundam!

I have wing proto zero, I still need to get epyon. And I still wish Bandai will green light a freaking RG gundam epyon already!

I just got this one to go in to a three gundam set. It will include the wing zero ew ver ka, the epyon ew and the supernova version of the deathscythe hell ew. The angel, the dragon, and the reaper. I think a group shot in some bad ass poses will look so sick.

Just by the look of this thing adding it to my list

YES FINALLY! THANK YOU!

I literally finished building and painting this kit today!

💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽Yo I love Ew kits. Even though I only have two kits so far mecha is my go to for buying new gunpla.

The Epyon honestly looks like a cross between the wing and the master Gundam

🔥 i hope to build this sometime

The wings do tend to loosen overtime, but if you press the wing joints tight enough, it will stay in position. Mine been holding a pose with open spread wings since December. In fact, I haven't touched it for months that its already too dusty.

I got the gundam base limited shiny version of this and it looks awesome. I almost wish I got the regular Mg… it was the most stressful build ever due to the coating making cutting off the gates tricky. removing the nubs without scratching it more was a headache. Still one of the best looking models out there though

There is actually a White Epyon in the Manga piloted by Wu Fei. He uses his Beam Trident instead.

I love my DeathScythe it’s one of the best kits I ever built, also my first!

My first build. Gold tier indeed 👌

This kit is my very first master grade and it is awesome! I don't really care about its flaws but its just so good lookin

I just bought this kit and the knock off version a week ago, so excited for it.

If you can, I would highly recommend the MG wing Gundam Proto Zero. One of my favorite MG’s of all time.

It should be mentioned. If you don't extend the heat hawk sections and try to bend it you'll wrench off the joints pretty easily.

Really hope we end up getting a glory of losers version with it's extra equipment like shenlong heavyarms etc have gotten

After all these years my favorite MS from Wing is still the Tallgeese.

I adore the Epyon, it's such a cool design. I do feel like the MG does it justice. I have to wonder, though, did it just not sell well? It seems like this suit gets ignored pretty often when it comes to new kits. We still don't have a RG version, and I don't think there is a recent 1/144 scale. Might be an older kit, I do know there is some ungraded kits floating around...

That kit was where Jobby did review the Epyon EW after he bought that kit back from 2014.

Wow nice camera angle dude

This gundam model kits is my favorites

I had the opportunity to get this but I was worried it'd be a wonky and loose old MG mess. Seems comparable to the other EW kits, so definitely worth picking up. Next time I guess, if it's ever restocked here again.

Watched this to give myself help attaching that shield, didn't want to stay in at all lol

I hope we'll get a Master Grade of the original anime version because I actually like both designs along with Wing Zero's original anime design. I'm not counting Proto Wing Zero as its original design because it's shoulders are slightly different(less blue on Proto compared to original anime design) and the fins on the shield are shorter as well on the original anime design. Plus I'd actually want to try to recreate the Beam Saber/ Sword clash they had in space where Wing Zero's Beam Saber was deflected by Epyon's shield and Beam Sword. You know where the clash was so close to Epyon's head that the shine from the beams were reflecting off of its face.

He forgot to pull on the wings :( if you pinch the top and bottom then pull you get the expanded version of the wings

Man, how did you forget to mention the opening wing gimmick?! The entire backpack construction is centered around that lol

Nice Video, this gunpla was my very first and i made a view mistakes, still love it neverless😎 But ich ne question, why didn‘t you Open the Wings? Opened, they look way better 😄

Hope that Bandai could consider to continue the story of Wing Gundam where Epyon has been upgraded and connect the story with EW why the Gundams got changed and not because it has its own universe...

I have two of these and it is awesome

I’ve waited for so long

my first kit and I had to get the Ver.ka wing kit after it . i hate posing the shield with the whip but it feels fine nonetheless.

Prepare a double tape,my mine was really old,hands fells off easily,loose skirt armor and wing joint,and last superglue the wing of the legs...but still worth every penny since it's the only good looking Epyon

For anyone who is on the fence of buying one because you’re worried about the self presence of him. I can tell you right now you don’t have to worry about it. I have MG Grand daddy, MG Nu Gundam, MG Wing EW and MG Proto Zero and Epyon seems to attract everyone who sees my collection as much as the MG Sazabi. Also he is right, photos and video literally cannot show how good this kit looks in person. I also HIGHLY recommend going out and getting the Waterslides for this guy

My gf gifted me this gundam. I am excited to build it!!

Question, Ive never bought a MG before, but Ive been wanting to build one. I want to get Heavy Arms, but the custom(green one) Ive seen the original HA colors of a MG calling it custom, and I dont know why? Also the prices on both differ so much, why is it? and which one should you think Id get?
