MSM-08 Zogok - Amphibious Analysis 

Honestly Sloth, your love of Amphibious suits does slightly worry me. Promise me you're not going to become a tinpot dictator with a creepy harem.

I am surprised that it didn't have nuckle spikes like the zaku 1 q type

Funny you mention the Zogok’s big hands: the original Dom/Rick Dom actually had the same problem: it couldn’t operate the same weapons of the Zaku II without modifications. Case in point, the MG 1/100 of Char’s Rick Dom includes a larger grip for its 120mm Zaku machine gun, so it can actually use it. Dalong has some photos of this Gunpla. In other words, the real reason most Doms/Rick Doms are stuck with Giant Bazookas and MMP-80 machine guns (which have open grips that don’t get in the way) is because they can’t operate other weapons. That being said, supposedly later units became what some consider “UMP complaint” and had smaller manipulators, like those seen in 08th MS Team (whose armor also looks more similar to a Rick Dom II). On a different note, the Marasai beam rifle you mentioned is actually originally a Hizack beam rifle, and this is relevant because the Hizack is infamous for its low generator output that limits it to only use one beam weapon at a time, which probably made it ideal for a unit like the Zogok… which actually has a higher generator output than a Hizack! Finally, my only complaint about the Zogok from Unicorn is that we don’t see a scabbard for its heat sword… which is really important given that it swam to the shore and got wet. For comparison, the Zee Zulu do carries its heat knives on scabbards to keep them dry until getting out of the water. Off the top of my head, the MS-08TX/N also uses scabbards (though his are “cold” weapons), but it gives us a OYW precedent for the use of scabbards.

Yaaaas amphibious analysis is back!!!

LOVE YOUR VIDEOS BRO!!!! KEEEEEP AT IT!!!!!!

Really glad that you made a video for the zogok, it's really an underappreciated amphibious MS

always great to see another amphibious analysis

My favorite of the zgok line, LETS GOOOOO Bro the only thing that we are missing in the hg is open hands (slap style imagine) I have the juaggu and i hope someday i can get the zogok or hygogg for a neo-amphibious OYW team

FINALLY WHAT IVE BIN WAITING FOR THANK YOU SLOTHCAKES

I first saw this in the game that you was using the video and I always loved it I just wish they had an update

GURREN LAGANN MENTIONED ‼️‼️‼️

The Zogok is such an interesting unit and one of the few MS from the UC with function extending arms. For costs and practicality, I can understand them limited to roughly double its standard arms reach. Although seeing it extend outward enough to reach the Altron Gundam from Wing, is just different levels of stupid reach there. Besides the obvious costs, if the arm is hit while extended will just be ungodly expensive to repair and just best to replace. On the plus side, it was nice to know the Zogok in Unicorn actually survived, even though quite damaged. As far as I can tell, the Efreet, Gouf Heavyarms and Zogok all survived that attack, not sure of any other units.

Here idea for the Zogok-E it can change its hands may be normal manipulator, Big one, iron nails, or something else no one thought of like a machine gun. But mean thing is they all can stretch like Zogok arms so it doesn't have to sacrifice mean advantage it has but still somewhat adaptable.

how about give the Zogok-E retractable knuckle dusters? that way it can have normal hands (to hold guns) and stil punch! :) love your Analysis videos BTW! :D 👍❤🤍🖤

Thank you for your great Videos

Imagine someone kitbashed the Zogok with the Gundam Maxter.

My favorite (somewhat) amphibious mobile suit apart from the Gogg. Absolutely loved this design, and having the HG is still one of my most wanted hunts for kits.

we got amphibians at the kinoplexx today

yay!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
